So I officially placed my order for my electric guitar and amp that I choosed. I’ll reveal what they are when they are delivered to my home from UPS. I also ordered a guitar case, a tuner, guitar stand, extra packs of strings, stomp box effects pedal, etc. All that stuff should come later this week or next.

I’ve been wanting to do this for years. Go electric and finally doing it. When I get my electric, I’ll focus most of my time on that because I’m hoping of getting my own rock n’ roll band going in the future. When I get my new guitar and amp, I’ll post pictures or maybe even post a video blog of me messing around with it.

This blog has been kind of slowing down with posts and updates a bit ’cause I keep myself busy in the real world. Working my day job, working out, lifting weights and exercising my ass off. Playing video games and watching movies, stuff like that. I do other things besides hanging on the internet although certain people out there may not see that in me but I do keep myself busy.

I need to update this blog more this week ’cause I need to post obituaries for Jack Brisco of WWE fame, J.D. Salinger, and Jean Simmons this week. I’ll work on those hopefully tomorrow. Plus, the Oscar nominations will be revealed tomorrow and I know I’m going to have a lot to say about that too.

Just wanted to write something at random to get something off my chest.

Well, I just picked my electric guitar and electric amp today. Very affordable and kind of cheap. I just didn’t want anything too fancy or too expensive. Just something simple to start off with. I won’t reveal what kind of guitar and amp I’ll be getting until I get ’em home delivered. I’ll have ’em ordered next week. I will also need to order more accesories like guitar case, strap, extra strings, etc. Maybe a few more pedal effects.

I already have a few pedals. I have a wah pedal and a Metal Master distortion stomp. I’ll probably get an overdrive pedal and a volume pedal.

I’m so over this acoustic guitar thing. It’s time to rock it up. I’ll be ordering these through my favorite online music store, American Musical Supply. I’ve been ordering my stuff from them for years. Good company.

I’ve just read online somewhere that Iaz is in Cinncinatti, Ohio. From one city to another. I don’t know how this guy does it. Not sure if he hitch hikes his way through or how he gets the money for trains/buses but it is strange how he does it. Iaz ditching home town to live on the road to visit almost every major city in the US, is reminding me of the famous stories of Christopher McCandless and UFC fighter Evan Tanner. Those two guys did pretty much the same thing. Chris McCandless ditched his hometown to live his dreams of living in the wild of Alaska and Evan Tanner ditched his life to live out in the desert. I understand people want to make these dreams come true and make them happy, but guess what, those kind of dreams don’t usually end too well. Chris and Evan’s dreams both resulted in death.

Iaz may want to take that into consideration. I don’t mean to be harsh and don’t mean to be difficult on him but it’s my way of getting him to wake up and look at reality.

My take on why Iaz is doing this travelling is so he can try and get the public’s attention to his music more. It’s like, “Hey look at me, I’m travelling, so respect me”. A cry for attention kind of thing. It’s like, he’s trying to get famous for it or something.

Not only that he could possibly become a victim of a crime, what if he gets injured or really sick and no one cares to help him? This stuff will happen. I know he can take care of himself and he can do what he wants to do, that’s fine. Travelling to city to city for like everyweek is very dangerous. He needs to learn that fact. I know how much Iaz loves talking to people but meeting strangers out in the cities is never cool. Lots of bad people out there. Like I said, I’m a little worried that he could meet the wrong people that could turn out dangerous. Looking at his myspace blogs with him writing about how great these cities are and how wonderful city people are is just absolutely insane, in my book.

No matter how many people try to talk him into coming back home whether it’s myself or his family and friends that live back here, he’s not going to listen to anybody. He’s a pretty selfish guy that would think his music is so important than anything else.

Not only that Pittsburgh is known for gangs and other criminals in Pittsburgh, police brutality is pretty high in Pittsburgh.

A young black teen violinist was beaten by police in Pittsburgh, the city where Iaz is living in now.

I can find plenty of more articles where crime is very dangerous in Pittsburgh. Do your research through Pittsburgh local news and maybe Tobiaz should start reading the local newspapers which I doubt he pays attention to local news there.

If Iaz is walking through the streets at night and if he all of a sudden gets surrounded by 5 huge black men carrying baseball bats, brass knuckles, switchblade knives or even worse, hand guns, will he think something like that would happen? Nope, nope, nope. Iaz will think that city is beautiful and so safe, no matter the situation. Criminals like that usually target people that are weak and can’t defend themselves. If something like this happens to Iaz, then he is screweed.

This is what is scary about Iaz travelling to all these big cities by himself, know what I mean? He doesn’t think he will ever be a victim of city crime, but if he does, he may get the police after them, but this doesn’t change anything that this will be with you for the rest of your life. Iaz will probably look at this post, he will probably laugh at it  and call me a fool, but he won’t be laughing now when he does get mugged by city gangbangers.

I have finally made a videoblog. This is my first one ever since I got this video camera. I figure my first videoblog would be something about a vacation. Enjoy the adventure in the video below.

I’m thinking my next video blog will be about my fitness adventures, just to prove to the world that I’m not lying about trying to get in shape.

I know I slammed Twitter before, but I’ve grown to liking it because there are actual real celebrities posting in there, plus, I think it would be a cool thing to promote my blog and my music.

Twitter’s actually kind of cool.

I won’t be online Saturday- Monday this weekend ’cause I’ll be going on a family vacation trip to Martha’s Vineyard, Mass this weekend. I haven’t been to that wonderful island in a long time and I want to go. It’s one of my top 5 favorite vacation spots.

I’m going to be bringing my video cam with me to document some of the trip for videoblogs on youtube. I haven’t posted any new youtube videos in a while, I want to start vlogging and I think the Martha’s Vineyard vacation is a perfect start.

I need to get away from NY state for a little bit to relax and do some fun things. Martha’s Vineyard has some great towns there, nice shopping stores, and awesome things for sight seeing.

It’ll be a great trip. Looking forward to it.

I’ll try to blog more tonight and tomorrow until I’m gone for the trip. I’m leaving Saturday early in the morning.

NASA wanting the first human being to step on Mars is not a bad idea, but really, they should give up their fantasies, stop exploiting that planet, and leave it at peace.

NASA wanting to step on Mars is all ego and just astronauts trying to get more attention.

It will be extremely hard to find the right technology to protect humans when they step on Mars without being killed. I’m sure the first human being on Mars will happen one day but not for a long time.

It will indeed mark world history and be in the history books forever, it would be amazing if NASA can visit Mars and survive when leaving the planet…but you never know how safe or dangerous Mars could be.

If the first man to step on Mars someday, it wouldn’t surprise me if the first man dies and never leaves the planet back to Earth alive.

Why don’t they try stepping foot on other planets? Saturn looks like a cool planet to visit and Pluto looks like a cool little planet to try out too. Just leave Mars alone.
