It has been a week, and I am still reveling in how much fun we had. Lollapalooza has always been really fun. I have enjoyed going to the shows since I started in 92. There were a few rough spots here and there (I.e. after 98) but lollapalooza has turned out to be an amazing [...]

This weekend was pretty fun. Hiromi and I hung out a bunch. We went and saw Grindhouse. it was entertaining. I didn’t like planet terror. I realized half way through that I really don’t like a lot of Rodriguez’s horror movies. I like Sin City and his none zombie movies. Not his zombie movies. However, [...]

I love metal. Seriously. I love it. And metal concerts are always full of the most interesting experiences. However - the last couple shows I have been to I haven’t really been into it. I remember back in the day when Matiss and I went to go see Dimmu Borgir and how awesome it was. [...]

Oh boy, oh boy. Last night kstar came up and we went to the Britney Spears concert. We sat in our seats and realized that we were surrounded by screaming 13 year olds. It was insanity. O-town opened for her and they were horrible. They had a hip hop part.. they sang the puff daddy song “wanna be a baller,” it was funny the only guys who rapped were the “ethnic” guys. well I guess that isn’t…
