Cool Video: Live at P4th #1: “Evil Fred”

Leave a comment

Here’s one video for now. I know the videos will come out kind of dark, I know I should have turned the light on the camera but I’m new to my videocam so bare with me. I didn’t turn the light on the cam because I figure the stage lights would make it brighter but it’s still kind of dark, you can still hear me and see me in the video though.

I will only upload 1 or 2 videos a day for the P4th performance ’cause I don’t want to spend all day long editing, trimming, and cutting videos to make ’em one song each, it’ll take all day to do every song from last night, so I’m gonna do a little at a time.

Here is “Evil Fred” the first song I opened the show with. Enjoy. More to come.

I’m off the computer for a while to ride a bike into town for fresh air and exercise, and then back home to play GTA IV until the WWE “One Night Stand” ppv comes on tonight.

Report: Jimmy Page interview at Rollingstone.com…

Leave a comment

Rollingstone.com has a nice interview with Jimmy Page. My hero and inspiration in guitar playing who made me want to play music to begin with. As usual, Rollingstone asks musicians stupid questions to the musicians. While Rollingstone is a music magazine it is not aimed at musicians (like Guitar World, Guitar Player, etc.) Rollingstone is a music magazine aimed to the non-musicians, the regular music listeners.

Page give out the secrets where the energy and the tight playing in Led Zeppelin, he also explains how he inspired to bow an electric guitar.

That’s where all the tight and energetic playing comes from in my music, it’s because I listen to too much Led Zeppelin. While I listen to a lot of music out there, Led Zeppelin is everything to me.

The Rumour Mill: Kurt Cobain’s ashes stolen from Courtney’s home…

Leave a comment

Sources are saying that Kurt Cobain’s cremated remains were stolen from Courtney Love’s home after burglars broke into her home, also stealing jewelry and clothes. Courtney is going crazy and suicidal since.

News of the Wold reports:

I’m having a hard time buying this. The “News of the World” is a tabloid newspaper in the UK so don’t believe everything you read there.

If it’s true, it’s Courtney’s fault they were stolen, it’s her responsibility to keep them locked up and safe where the burglars won’t be able to get a hold of them.

Report: Heath Ledger’s family coming to “The Dark Knight” premiere in New York!!!

Leave a comment

Warner Bros. studios had confirmed that Heath Ledger’s family members are travelling from Australia to New York City to see “The Dark Knight” at the world premiere which opens July 18th.

It’s been said for a long time that Heath Ledger as the Joker is supposed to be the darkest and most intense movie performance of all times than any film ever.

FOXNews reports:

The Oscars for 2009 better nominate Heath Ledger for Best Actor In a Leading Role for “The Dark Knight”. Even though I haven’t seen the movie yet, seeing the trailers, I get goosebumps seeing Heath as the Joker.

I can’t wait to see “The Dark Knight” and I’m itching to see the film NOW! Can July 18th be any longer?

Thought: “Sex and the City” could top “Indy 4” after all?

Leave a comment

Maybe “Sex and the City” does have a chance in topping “Indy 4” in the box office ’cause it’s making big money fast. I mean, when I went to see “Indy 4” again yesterday, the theaters were packed, people weren’t there to see “Indy 4” again, they were all there to to see “Sex and the City” probably. People think “Sex and the City” is a TV show for women, but not really. Men loved the TV show too, I think that’s the TV shows goal was to attract male fans but the chicks happen to get into it. I used to watch the show all the time when it was on HBO but like I said before, I’m waiting for DVD rental on this one.

We’ll see how the box office does in close out tomorrow afternoon.
