Just watched the Chris Jericho vs. Kenny Omega match at Wrestle Kingdom 12… wanna see true wrestling then see this match!

1 Comment

The wrestling internet community has been hyping this match to death for a long while and I’ve been wanting to watch, but didn’t know how I would watch the match live ’cause this is a Japanese ppv event. This a Japanese wrestling company called NJPW and they have their yearly “Wrestle Kingdom” shows which is like Japan’s version of WrestleMania sort of. Well Chris Jericho was booked for a United Stated championship match against Kenny Omega @ Wrestle Kingdom 12 which just happened today. I think the ppv event happened earlier this morning ’cause it would be night in Japan… keep in mind Japan is on the other side of the world so the Time Zones are gonna be different obviously.

I saw the match Omega vs. Jericho and I’m like “Wow, what a freakin’ match”! I bet this match got Vince McMahon a bit jealous ’cause this match was 100% true wrestling. This is the kind of match you’ll never see in WWE. When I watched this match with Omega vs. Jericho, I definitely did not feel like watching a match that is for children. This match has all the things you’ll never see in a WWE ring: chair shots to the head, blood, flipping the middle finger, etc. In this match, Jericho is the heel and Omega is the baby face. I thought both men did a great job and this match will go down as a classic.

I’ve been a fan of Chris Jericho for years and my loyalty to him never stopped. Jericho does a good job playing both the heel and the baby face, but in this match Jericho’s heel character is different than WWE. One thing I like about Chris Jericho, he’s always great at changing his wrestling gimmicks over the years. Jericho has always been a phenomenal performer but this match was the best I’ve seen him in.

Take note, Vince McMahon. This is what wrestling fans want to see. It’s a good thing Japan knows what true wrestling is all about. This match was thrilling and exciting all the way through.

Will WWE sign Kenny Omega after this match? Who knows, anything is possible now.

Steve Bannon, another fraud in the MAGA community… I’m not surprised though, I never liked that man to begin with!!!

Leave a comment

Joy Villa the Scientologist pop singer has just been exposed as a MAGA fraud, Steve Bannon is next to be on the fraud list. One thing for sure, you can’t trust everybody in politics even people on your own side.

This was exposed by writer Michael Wolff who just wrote a book about the Trump White House titled, “Fire and Fury”. Bannon was caught saying that Don Jr. having a meeting with a group of Russians was “treasonous” and “unpatriotic”.

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/01/03/book-steve-bannon-calls-kushner-manafort-don-jr-trump-tower-meeting-russians-treasonous/

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/jan/03/donald-trump-russia-steve-bannon-michael-wolff

Well I’m not surprised that we have another Trump backstabber ’cause Bannon has always been on and off the Trump train ever since the election started. This is kind of funny ’cause this is the same guy who said the Russian investigation was a “farce” and he’s been saying the investigation has been nothing for a long while. So did Bannon flip-flop and now agreeing that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia?

It’s kind of crazy to call Don Jr. “treasonous” ’cause he doesn’t work at the White House and he’s not a politician so it doesn’t make any sense.

Bannon… a MAGA fraud. How nice. It doesn’t surprise me though ’cause I’ve always had negative feelings toward that man. Never liked him and I don’t get why some in the MAGA community has such a huge hard-on for him. Of course, all the Steve Bannon fanatics are sticking by his side and claiming what Michael Wolff wrote was bullshit. Some in the MAGA community think Bannon is god and it’s clear they’re trying to push a Bannon 2020 presidential run. My feelings are that if you’re a Bannon fan and want him to run for prez in 2020 then you’re not MAGA, you’re anti-Trump and always has been.

Don’t trust everybody in the MAGA community folks. There are many frauds and fakes out there. Many would take advantage to get publicity for themselves so they would try to leech off of Trump’s fame.

The Trump community are totally focused on making this country great again. You’re either in or out. Your choice.

The Brock’s Top 10 Films of 2017…

Leave a comment

Admittedly I didn’t do Top Lists of Best Films for 2016 last year… guess I forgot and never cared. Well, I’ll do it this year but this time I’ll go back down to Top 10 instead of 15 ’cause 15 is a lot of work for me. I’ll do just 10 choices from now on.

Anyways, here are my top 10 choices for Best Films of 2017… enjoy…

10. Blade Runner 2049 – I was very excited for this movie when this film was first announced by Ridley Scott. The film is finally here. A very good film. It’s almost 3 hrs. long but it’s still a very good sci-fi movie. Very good acting. Very good story. This film definitely deserves to be in the Top 10. Ryan Gosling and Ford was a very entertaining team up. There’s probably gonna be a third Blade Runner too.

9. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 – Way better than the first and I still need to add this movie to my Blu-Ray collection. I thought Dave Bautista’s character stole the show, though. Also gotta love Sylvester Stallone’s appearance in this film even though it was short. I’m a huge Guardians fan. Best in the Marvel universe.

8. The Dark Tower – Hollywood has been trying to make the Dark Tower books into movies for many years and its finally here. Went and saw the film myself and loved it! It turned out that this film is not based on any of the books at all and ended up being a continuation of the books, but still a very good movie. Idris Elba and Matt McConaughey worked very well together. I’m a huge fan of the Dark Tower books.

7. War For the Planet of the Apes – Probably the best film of the new POTA series and the most powerful film of them all, in my opinion. Story can be very sad in this film, but it was a perfect film all around. I love all the POTA films. Huge fan of this franchise. I love the classic POTA films, loved the Tim Burton remake and I love the new trilogy. Woody Harrelson played a really good bad guy in this film and Andy Serkis kills it with his voice acting like always.

6. The Mummy – I was interested in the new Mummy film with Tom Cruise ever since I saw the trailer. I never saw this film in theater but I bought the BluRay when it came out. Turned out to be a very good movie and I liked it a lot. Definitely way better than the Brendan Fraser “Mummy” trilogy which I never liked or cared for. The reboot with Tom Cruise is way better. Writing was good and the film is just entertaining as hell, all the way through. Great film, check it out.

5. Get Out – I was very surprised of this movie when I first saw it. I thought this film was phenomenal. It’s a great psychological horror film and that’s what it is, in my opinion. It’s about this black man who has an interracial-relationship with a white woman and he goes with her to meet her family. Turns out her family are not what he thought they were. I loved this movie and want my own copy on BluRay. My only negative of this film was all the Barack Obama worship in it… that shit didn’t need to be in there but other than that, a great film. It was creepy and kind of scary. I can definitely see Daniel Kaluuya winning an Oscar for that role ’cause that was some good acting.

4. Stephen King’s IT – This one had to be pretty high on the list. Probably the best Stephen King adapted horror film I’ve ever seen. Such a perfect and beautiful film throughout. Writing was good and acting was good. Plus, the BluRay comes out this coming Tuesday and you can betcha I’m gonna go pick it up.

3. Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi – I don’t give a shit what the haters think. I thought this film was amazing. Probably the best of the new trilogy so far. I’m thinking of seeing it again next week.

2. Logan – Also one of the best Marvel superhero movies I’ve ever seen. I also need to add this one to my BluRay collection soon. Hugh Jackman’s best performance too. An R rated superhero film with lots of blood and gore, swearing, etc. Love it. This film was different and just a great film all around. This film had to be pretty high on the list.

  1. Dunkirk – I finally gotten around to seeing Christopher Nolan’s latest directed movie, “Dunkirk” and I was blown away by this film. I’m a huge fan of war films and this film is one of the best new war films I’ve seen in a long time. This film got mixed reviews and I can’t understand why. It’s powerful. It can also get pretty scary and sad in some parts. Fionn Whitehead the film’s leading star is a great actor and I think he may get some awards as well. Christopher Nolan always makes great films as I’ve seen every film he has done and this is his best one yet!

Thoughts on Trump’s Nuclear button tweet… I think it’s funny but I hope Trump does drop bombs on Fat Boy Kim… fuck him…

Leave a comment

Fat Boy Kim or Rocket Man or whatever you want to call him said that America should watch it ’cause he has a nuclear button on his desk and he can use it at anytime he pleases. Well, President Trump just tweeted a response to Fat Boy Kim and says he has a much bigger nuclear button.

Of course, Trump’s nuclear button tweet sparked a lot of controversy and outrage by the left and even some so-called Trump supporters are mad at Trump for this tweet. Sure, anti-Trumpers may find it entertaining that Fat Boy Kim calling out Trump all the time and Kim may have been getting a lot of support ’cause of it, but do anti-Trumpers realize they’re supporting an evil dictator? Fat Boy Kim is not innocent and no sweetheart as he looks. The man is very evil and very dangerous. Fat Boy Kim is a madman. This is a guy who wants to drop bombs on us and wipe the USA off the map. That’s what Kim’s nuclear tests are all about. Some don’t want Fat Boy Kim to die? Really? They think Trump is evil for that tweet?

I sure hope Trump drops bombs on Fat Boy Kim. I could care less. The man deserves it. Fat Boy Kim is a man who kills his own people in North Korea.

Some may say that Trump doesn’t have the power and authority to drop bombs but of course he does. Trump just dropped the Mother of all Bombs on Afghanistan last year for to help destroy Isis and Trump dropped bombs on Syria too for gassing their own people. Trump is the president and commander in chief. He has the power and authority to drop bombs on anybody and anything he pleases as his job is to make sure America is safe and protected.

I loved that tweet. While it was funny, it was a pretty serious response and it’s no joke. Fat Boy Kim is evil and dangerous. I could careless if Trump drops bombs on him. I could careless if Trump decides to wipe North Korea off the map as well.

North Korea wants to threaten the USA, how else do you want us to respond? We’re not gonna sit back and smile that’s for sure. We finally have a tough president who doesn’t take any shit from other countries who hate us. I’m glad Hillary or Bernie isn’t our president. They would have handled the North Korea threats differently. They probably would have sat back and said nothing.

What I hope to achieve musically in 2018…

Leave a comment

Is there a such thing as New Year’s Resolutions for musicians? Hell yeah! Why not! What I hope to achieve as a musician in 2018 is that I’m going to keep trying to improve my musicianship to the next level. I’m always going to try to improve my guitar playing and singing which I’m working extremely hard at both. I’m not an actual musician but I’m doing all I can to become an actual musician. As a matter of fact, I’ll never see myself as an actual musician, I just do what I do. Just play music and enjoy it!

With all that being said, I’m gonna do all I can to switch from being an acoustic guitarist to electric guitarist full time. Like I’ve said before, I’ve spent most of my life playing acoustic music and I think I finally want to become a hard rock & metal musician. I think hard rock & metal is what I was meant to really play. It always has been my main genre. I’ve always loved heavy music and I’m a huge fan of shred guitar too. I don’t think I’m a virtuoso guitarist yet but I would definitely like to get there and that’s my goal. I want to have a good ear, I want to have good rhythm chops and good lead guitar skills too.

I want to start writing heavy rock songs pretty soon so I’m just trying to collect all the pedals to get the right sounds.

I’ll never give up acoustic music. I’ll always play that too, but I want to keep my focus on electric rock mostly. On my next demo or album, I would like a mix of acoustic and metal like I talked about before.

I’ll never give up what I do… play guitar and singing ’cause that’s what I am. It’s a huge part of me. I also hope to write more songs this year as I’m going to start messing with guitar riffs on an electric guitar this time to see what I can come up with. I believe I can write some pretty cool guitar riffs and play solos that rock & metal fans would like. People might be surprised at what I could do.

I’m not that great on the electric guitar yet but I’m gonna do all I can to get real good on that too. I want to shred… I want to write heavy riffs… I want to get good on the whammy bar and all that stuff. I don’t think I’ll ever play electric guitar like Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson and all those guys, but I’m proud of how my playing is at now. I came a long way and I’ve been playing guitar for 20 years now.

I don’t really care to have technical ability though, I just want to write great songs and that’s all I wanna do. Make music how I want to make it and not caring if anyone else likes it or not. I don’t take myself serious like many guitarists do out there. I just do what I do. Just play guitar and rock out. It’s that simple.

Happy New Year!

Donald-J.-Trump-Quotes-Happy-New-Year

Well, Happy New Year, y’all!

It’s been a great year for America, has it? US economy booming under Trump, Obama legacy slowly being erased, Trump getting rid of the many regulations in America, SCOTUS judge approved, ISIS getting destroyed and most importantly of all… we FINALLY got TAX REFORM! While we still have a lot of work to do, this is a good start so far. We won a lot throughout 2017 and I predict there will be much more winning in 2018. While Trump is doing an impressive job so far, we still need the Wall, getting rid of Obamacare and to hopefully lock up Hillary/Obama. We get those done, we’ll be good!

Anyway, enough of that… as for my own life… 2017 was pretty good for me but hopefully I’ll make 2018 better for me. I’m definitely gonna try to get a job this year and gonna start the job hunting again.  I also plan to get back into songwriting again this year ’cause I really am itching for new songs. I’m also thinking about a live gigging comeback ’cause I really miss performing on the stage. I’m also going to continue to ignore negativity and focus on positivity. I’m also going to get back into fitness and yoga full time after a Holiday break from it all. There are many resolutions that I have but those are just a few of them.

I’m gonna plan on posting on this blog a lot more ’cause I know I’ve been slowing down on it. I just didn’t care to post on here much anymore but I’m going to try to post on it a lot more this year. I’ve found myself being busy with life nowadays… like playing more guitar and playing more music.

I spent most of the day video gaming today. I’ve been playing the “Elder Scrolls: Skyrim Special Edition” on the PS4 all weekend. Play it most of the day. I’ve gotten back into video gaming again ’cause I want to try to catch up with some of the other games that I got.

Top 15 movies to look forward to in 2018…

Leave a comment

Well, 2018 is just about here and it’s about time I start doing these Top 15 lists and here’s the first one. “Top 15 Movies” to look forward to in 2018.

I’ll do the Top 15 Best Music albums and Top 15 Best Movies of 2017 lists pretty soon but first lets start off with this one.

Here are 15 movies I’m looking forward to in 2018 in no particular order:

  • Black Panther – Marvel is finally giving Black Panther his own movie which was directed by Ryan Coogler. Should be a good one.
  • The Avengers: Infinity War – I saw the trailer to the new Avengers movie and it looks like it’s going to be a good one. I’m a huge fan of the first two Avengers movie so I’ll be seeing the next one.
  • Annihilation – This film is a sci-fi/fantasy film that stars Natalie Portman which looks interesting. I’ll check it out.
  • Death Wish – A remake of a classic action film directed by Eli Roth and starring Bruce Willis that actually looks pretty good. I’m so there for this one.
  • The Strangers: Prey at Night – The sequel to the 2008 horror film “The Strangers”. Can’t wait for this one!
  • Tomb Raider – I’ve seen the new trailer for the new Tomb Raider film starring Alicia Vikander and it looks pretty good. I’m all in for this one. I’m a big Tomb Raider fan.
  • Ready Player One – The new Steven Spielberg directed movie in which he returns to sci-fi in this one. The trailer looked pretty good to me so I’ll check this one out.
  • Solo: A Star Wars Story – The Han Solo spinoff Star Wars film which was directed by Ron Howard comes out in 2018. I’ll probably end up seeing this one.
  • Deadpool 2 – Loved the first “Deadpool” movie. Will be seeing the second one for sure!
  • Sicario 2: Soldado – I loved the first Sicario movie starring Benicio Del Torro and it was an amazing film. Hopefully the sequel will be just as good!
  • Mission Impossible 6 – Yes, there’s another MI movie coming out. I’m a huge fan of these movies so I’ll probably see the next MI movie for sure.
  • The Equalizer 2 – I loved the first Equalizer movie with Denzel Washington and I’m probably gonna go see the second one.
  • The Predator – There’s a new Predator movie coming out in 2018 directed by Shane Black. It’s a 4th installment of the series. Even though Schwarzenegger will not be in this one, I’m sure it will be an entertaining movie.
  • Creed 2 – I loved the first Creed movie so I’ll be seeing the second one. This sequel would be about Ivan Drago coming back and Dolph is gonna reprise that role it looks like. Should be an interesting film.
  • The Girl In The Spider’s Web – It’s the new Lisbeth Salander movie based on those Millennium novels. I’m already interested even if I haven’t seen a trailer yet.

There ya go. Enjoy the list!

Joy Villa caught on video slapping a man’s ass at some party… hypocrite much? Yes, this video is real!

Leave a comment

Isn’t it funny that when someone accuses someone of something, they get caught doing the same exact thing?

Here’s a drunk Joy Villa at some party and it looks like she’s poking fun at some fat man. It seems that he doesn’t appreciate being bothered by her either if you watch closely. Here she is slapping a man’s ass and it seems he doesn’t like it at all.

I hope she gets arrested for making a false criminal report ’cause it could happen.

Thoughts on Joy Villa accusing Corey Lewandowski of sexual harassment… a slap on the butt is sexual harassment? Lmao!!!

Leave a comment

Well this is getting interesting. Initially, I supported Joy Villa when she wore that MAGA dress at the Grammy’s. I started supporting her and enjoying what she’s been doing. It seems to me she was trying to inspire other Trump supporters that it’s okay to be a Trump supporter which seems that’s what her goal was. As time went along, she grew more popular and her music kept getting more popularity. Her music went straight to the charts and all that stuff.

Now that Joy Villa has gotten more attention for herself, she’s been exposed as a fraud recently. She’s been exposed as a die-hard liberal and Scientologist. She’s not really a Trump supporter as she’s trying to make herself out to be and the Trump supporting community knows it. She was exposed as supporting Bernie Sanders in the past and she supported Barack Obama when he was president before she supposedly jumped aboard on the Trump train.

I started losing interest in Joy Villa once she started promoting herself that she is running for Congress and that’s how she got exposed as a Scientologist. So I steered myself clear of her and stopped supporting her for good. I bought her music wishing I never did… but I will never buy anything from her ever again in the future, though!!!

Now to get even more attention for herself, she is accusing conservative and fellow Trump supporter, Corey Lewandowski of sexual harassment. What is she accusing him of sexual harassment for? A slap on the butt. Yes, you heard that right.

http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2017/12/26/trump-supporter-joy-villa-says-filed-sexual-assault-complaint-against-corey-lewandowski.html

So let me get this straight. She’s about ready to run for Congress it looks like and she’s already accusing someone of sexual harassment? Wow. Predictably, Joy keeps going on and on about this on twitter. It’s like, “Oh no, someone slapped by butt and I’m hurt really bad. Booo hoooooo…..”. I mean, Christ… get the fuck over yourself! She obviously thinks this is going to earn her more votes for her Congress bid.

I hope Joy loses the election miserably. I used to like Joy but now I can’t stand her and find her annoying as fuck. She’s up to something and she’s got something up her sleeve.

What I think she’s doing is that secretly she despises President Trump like every liberal. She’s a liberal pretending to be a Trump supporter. Lately, she’s been going around trying to promote “love” and “unity” which is what her “Make America Great Again” song is about. That’s not what a true Trump supporter does, per se…  I think she’s upset at Trump at supposedly dividing the country and that’s what her “love” and “unity” thing is about. Well, whatever her plan is… it’s not gonna work.

Her 15 minutes of fame is just about over. Other Trump supporters are doing a good job exposing the fraud that she is. Most of us think she was hired by George Soros ’cause she’s linked to him somehow. Joy Villa is already doing a good job dividing the Trump supporting community anyways. Us true supporters are smarter than that and we know the kind of fraud Joy is.

Most Trump supporters already turned their back on her but there are still some supporting her. We’re trying to get everyone to stop supporting her. We don’t want people supporting a fraud… spending their hard earned money on a fraud and we don’t want conservatives voting for her if she really is running for Congress. She’s obviously accusing Lewandowski for more votes which is pathetic. There are still famous Trump fans supporting her like Sean Hannity for example.

Ever since Joy has been accusing Lewandowski, this Lewandowski guy hasn’t responded and never put out a statement. Well, I think he should respond and fight back ’cause this is lawsuit worthy, in my opinion. This definitely does fall under slander and libel. Lewandowski should sue her as a way to help shut her up. I think he’ll do it when he sees that she won’t give it up. She’s still going on about it on twitter.

She really needs to get off the Trump train, though. I think she’s a secret hater. She hates Trump, I can tell.

On top of that, a slap on the butt as sexual harassment? Um, wow. That’s so absurd. Police won’t do anything about it ’cause even they’ll know it’s a joke. Give it up, Joy. What you’re doing will fail and we’ll put your so-called music and political career to an end pretty fast. We’re about to do just that. You’re done!

This Kanye West & Jimi Hendrix meme explains the difference between an egomaniac and humble musician perfectly…

Leave a comment

HendrixKanye

Both of these quotes by these two artists are real. They really said them during media interviews, they said them on TV and all it takes is an easy google research to find ’em. It’s easy to figure out which one of these guys is the egomaniac and the humble musician. You can betcha Kanye is the ego one and Jimi is the humble one.

Jimi never really liked to be called a guitar god or a virtuoso. When people tell him that he is, he’ll just laugh ’em off and Jimi will just say things like, “I do what I do. Just play the guitar”. Kanye however will refer to himself as a music god or a genius or whatever.

If you want an example of how musicians and music artists are different then this meme explains it nicely.

Being an ego-maniac isn’t healthy for your music life. When you have that attitude, other musicians and even music fans will look at you with pure disdain. You’ll lose a lot of respect when people see that you can be full of yourself. Musicians with an egomaniacal attitude can be a real turn-off for some. Acting like you’re a music god, thinking that you’re better than others, etc. You get the deal.

When you have a humble attitude like Hendrix by not taking yourself so serious and just play… people will treat you with more respect and will take you more seriously as a musician. The humble musician is someone who doesn’t brag about their musicianship constantly and doesn’t brag about their success in music. The humble musician doesn’t call him/herself a genius and just allows the music to speak on its own.

I wish there are more musicians like Hendrix than there are of Kanye. There are too many Kanye-like musicians around here nowadays. Not just in the major label industry… there are ego-maniacs in local music scenes all over. Can’t stand it. I know an ego-maniac and a humble musician when I see one. Of course, I give more respect to the humble musicians than the huge egos. lol….

I know I talk about this stuff a lot, but I’m just trying to give people a reality check of how the music world really is. A lot of people think I’m dumb and don’t believe me most of the time but that’s okay. I’m not afraid to tell things how they really are and I don’t make stuff up. I’ve been at the local gigs and I’ve seen how musicians are online too. It’s crazy out there, trust me.
