Happy Presidents day, whether you accept Donald Trump as our president or not, hope you’re enjoying this day!

trumppresidentsday1

Today is president’s day and today is a great day to be an American for sure. I’m in such a good mood today that Donald Trump is our 45th president of the US. Whether you accept him or not, hope you’re enjoying this day. Be thankful that we didn’t get Hillary as prez ’cause that would have been horrible.

To all the snowflakes who still can’t accept him, deal with it. You’re gonna have a long 8 years. I love how all the haters are already predicting “Impeachment” or “arrest” when he hasn’t done anything illegal yet. I predicted that the haters would already be crying “impeachment” or “arrest”. It’s amazing that  there are still crybabies who still can’t accept him. Anti-trump people in social networking still re-sharing anti-Trump memes and all that stuff. We had to get forced to accept Obama for 8 years, now it’s your turn to accept Trump.

The haters are pretty ridiculous and childish. When you debate with them in FB or twitter, you can never get into a civilized debate with them. They resort to name calling, say a bunch of mean things to you and all they do is bash Trump. That’s why it’s best to try and ignore those NeverTrump idiots. I try to but sometimes I must debate with them when they get out of hand and then I’ll call them out to show them how wrong they are about certain things.

One thing for sure though, those anti-Trump folks don’t like being called SJW (Social Justice Warrior) and snowflake. I called some of them those names but they got so defensive. They don’t even know what SJW and snowflake even means so they had to look it up. LOL! I’m serious, not joking. It proves how uneducated and out of touch these people are. “Snowflake” meaning an overly sensitive person who gets easily upset when views are different, something like that. They totally deserved that term ’cause they really are “snowflakes” when they hate on Trump. They still can’t accept that he is our prez which is sad.

I’m not seeing many people saying “Happy Prez Day” other than conservatives and Donald Trump supporters. Most liberals are silent on Prez Day today. Gee, I wonder why? If Hillary was elected then I’m sure liberals will be all over it.

I’m not gonna let fake news media control me, don’t let it control you either!!!

trumpmedia1

Man, I love how Trump has been calling out the media! It seems like the more Trump calls out the media, the worse the media gets. Love it!

The media thinks they can control people. They think they can tell us what to do, tell us how to live and tell us what to believe. No way. Not fuckin’ happening with me! I haven’t listened to the media for  a long time. Haven’t listened to the media since the 2008 elections when they helped elected Obama. It’s easy to see through the media’s bullshit.

Sadly though, there are still some people who believes everything the media says and takes them seriously. There are some dumbasses who believes that the media is “credible” source.

What are the Fake News Media sources I’m talking about? Well the usual list: NBC, CNN, MSNBC, CBS, The Washington Post, NY Times, etc. Internet sites like Media Matters and RAW Story. Radio stations like NPR, that’s also fake news.

Anybody that believes what they say is a stupid idiot. Don’t listen to the media. Do not trust them. Think outside the box and do something what is called “Critical thinking” which people don’t do these days. Do your homework. Do your research on things and then you would see that the media is bullshit.

Media is in bed with Democratic political figures but they hate everything Republican/Conservative. It’s really sickening to see and even sadder to see all these people buying into this stuff.

The media has been controlling and fooling people for decades. The media thinks we’re stupid and gullible but we’re not. That’s why we’ve supported Donald Trump from day 1 ever since the election started to show the media we aren’t gullible.

Sadly there are still some Americans who are “gullible” which is why they still hate Trump ’cause the reason is they still believe everything the media says.

Just turn off the TV… stop reading the papers… stop listening to talk radio ’cause it’s all junk. I don’t pay attention to any of that stuff.

If you want to see how Donald Trump matters to all of us, don’t listen to the media. Listen to Trump the man himself. Watch his speeches, keep an eye on his twitter, etc. Social media is the new media. Not the fake news MSM.

What I liked about the Milo and Bill Maher interview on HBO…

When it was said that Bill Maher just booked Milo Yiannopoulos for his “Real Time” show on HBO for a special interview segment, it’s been expected by Trump supporters that Milo was gonna send Bill to smackdown hotel. Ya know, Milo give Bill a verbal beatdown but many Trump supporters were disappointed that the interview didn’t turn out to be that way. Instead, Milo and Bill were very nice and friendly to each other. The debate turned out to be very “civilized” which to me is amazing.

Trump supporters seem disappointed in Milo for this but I think this is great. Ya know? I think heated debates and controversial political discussions are getting old and tiresome. It doesn’t hurt to get along for once. Yes, it is very possible that a conservative can get along with a liberal quite well and this is proof of it.

While Bill Maher is a very liberal guy, I have no problem with him. Bill is actually one of the very few liberals who is actually pretty cool. Why? Probably because Bill is more tolerant to others views and beliefs. Watch his show for proof on that. Bill has interviewed other conservatives on his show lots of times and he allowed them to speak their minds.

This is what a civilized liberal vs. conservative debate looks like, folks. Tolerance. We need more of it especially online.

Everyone wants to view Milo as this “controversial” person but once you actually see him, you’ll be disappointed that he turned out not controversial at all. You’ll immediately see that Milo is a likeable person after all. Milo seems like a nice guy and down to earth to me. I don’t see how Milo is “controversial”. He just a Trump supporter like the rest of us. Milo is just speaking all the same things we’ve all been thinking.

I’m tired of the media and liberals trying to paint conservatives as “controversial” when we are not actually that at all. We’re just regular people just like you and me. Enough with the labelling.

I think Bill looks surprised when he saw that Milo isn’t “controversial”, you can tell by the look on Bill’s face. Bill is looking at Milo like: “Woah, this is not the Milo that I thought he was”. They ended up being friendly together.

This was a great interview. I really enjoyed it. I’m a huge fan of Milo. I’m not gay at all, I’m perfectly straight but I just admire how he’s not afraid to speak his mind however he wants to. Milo is the shit. I’ll be buying his book when it comes out this year for sure.

Sturgill Simpson’s “Sailor’s Guide To Earth” should have won Album of the Year at the Grammy’s instead of Adele…

Earlier today I listened to Sturgill Simpson’s “Sailor’s Guide To Earth” album and I was so fucking impressed by it. That album was pretty amazing. LOVED IT! Sturgill’s music is country a little bit but he also adds in other genres of music into his work. I just love his singing voice and his backup band makes some very good music as well.

I think his album should have won “Album of the Year” at the Grammy’s instead of Adele. Of course, the Grammy’s always have to pick Adele ’cause well, she’s Adele. Anyway, “Sailor’s Guide to Earth” by Sturgill Simpson was an incredible album. Think I’m gonna be listening to it a lot for sure. Sturgill’s music is so different. Can’t even describe the genre he plays really. They call him a country artist and roots rock but I hear a lot of jazz & blues in his music too.

“Sailor’s Guide to Earth” is a great album and you should give it a listen too. As a matter of fact, I never heard of this Sturgill Simpson guy before until he got nominated for “Album of the Year” for this record. I thought he was just another typical pop artist but it turns out he wasn’t that. He’s an artist with real talent. A guy who plays his own instruments and writes his own songs while the other artists in the “Album of the Year” category didn’t write their own songs.

I was surprised how great “Sailor’s Guide” was and I would like to see Sturgill Simpson live in concert someday. So glad I discovered this guy’s music. I really dig this song he did called “Call to Arms”… in the song sends a political message but still though the song is so fucking tight. Love it. Enjoy.

I have quite a gear collection as a musician so I guess I am a gearhead???

So I have 4 guitars (2 acoustic and 2 electrics), 2 electric guitar amps, a small p.a. system, an audio interface, studio monitors (or speakers), a mic preamp (which I’ve never used yet), 5 guitar pedals, a mic stand, a music stand and pop filter for mic.

That’s an alright gear collection but I could use more, though. I plan on buying more electric guitars somewhere down the road. I’ll need a solid body electric and I’m gonna try to find one with a whammy bar ’cause I want to experiment with whammy tricks. I want to get more electric guitars for different sounds and stuff. I’m also planning to buy one more guitar amp which I’m looking for an acoustic amp, not an electric amp. I would also need a MIDI controller too which I’m planning to get soon. I’m also planning on starting a big guitar pedal collection ’cause I need more sounds: Delay, chorus, echo, fuzz, Octave pedal, etc.

I’m gonna keep my focus on electric guitar this year ’cause I want focus on rock guitar. I want to start writing original rock n’ roll songs. Plus, I’ll learn more electric rock covers from my favorite bands like I’ll learn all the riffs and solos from Led Zeppelin, Megadeth, Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc. Maybe I’ll go even further and learn some shred guitar songs by Joe Satriani ’cause I’ve always wanted to learn “Satch Boogie” and “Surfing With the Alien”. Maybe I’ll try to learn Van Halen’s “Eruption” too. I’m just getting so bored of acoustic and wanna switch to electric full time. Electric guitar is awesome and wanna focus on that.

Back to buying musicians gear, I love buying more music gear when I can. I’m planning to look for full time work this year and that way I can save up for music gear a lot quicker.

Just bought Joy Villa’s “I Make the Static” EP from Itunes…

https://twitter.com/KBrocking/status/832744700691886081

Well, the singer/songwriter by the name of Joy Villa… the one who stood up for us Trump supporters at the Grammy’s by simply wearing a MAGA dress. Well since she was courageous enough to help stand up for us, I decided to return the favor and support her in return. Just bought her 5 track EP, “I Make The Static”. She doesn’t have a full album out yet but just an EP out for now. I’m sure she’ll make a full length album pretty soon. Her music is pretty good. Listened to some of it in youtube so I ended up getting her EP. She does have a great singing voice.

I also bought 5 other albums from Itunes as well:

  • Sturgill Simpson “A Sailor’s Guide To Earth”
  • Gojira “Magma”
  • Kristen Capolino “These Days” (a local artist who I’m a fan of, she’s a young shred guitar virtuoso around the area)
  • David Bowie (his 1967 self titled debut album)
  • Alexander O’ Neal “Hearsay”

I’ve gotten into Sturgill Simpson music lately ’cause I really dig his music so I bought his latest album. The Gojira album “Magma” has been getting a lot of great reviews in the metal world so I decided to get that album for myself as I am a huge fan of metal. David Bowie, I’m still trying to collect his entire discography of studio albums… I really want his whole collection of music. Alexander O’ Neal is an R&B and pop artist who I’ve gotten into as recommended by a friend of mine and I really dig his stuff.

Once again, the variety of genres. I like to listen to all sorts of music. That’s just me.

I’ve noticed a big difference between Obama and Trump press conferences…

So earlier this morning I’ve watched Trump’s first solo press conference as a president from yesterday. Trump calling out the media in person to their faces was glorious, indeed.

However, though, have you noticed the difference between the Trump press conference and Obama press conference? Watch the two videos above and try to compare them if you would. They are both pretty different with the way the press reacts to the president.

With Obama press conferences, all the reporters did was kiss Obama’s ass most of the time. It seems that the reporters questions were carefully picked by the Obama administration as if the whole press conference was scripted almost. The reporters had to be kind to Barack.

When it comes to a president Trump press conference, reporters get so aggressive to the president. A lot of whining and moaning. Instead, the president puts the media on defense… making them look weak.

All this shows is how one-sided and liberal biased the media really is. They are only in bed with liberal political figures but hate everything conservative.

It is interesting though how at a Trump press conference, the media doesn’t like to be called, “Fake News”. The media then begs for respect and cries “Freedom of speech”. Hey media, like I said in a post before, you totally deserved that verbal smackdown by Trump. President Trump made it clear throughout that press conference that he doesn’t mind negative reporting against him, he just wants their stories to be truthful but they never are. All the fake news media does is slander him most of the time and you expect him not to respond? Really?

The media needs to realize that respect is earned and the American people doesn’t respect the fake news MSM at all. It’s why we all voted for Trump ’cause we’re all fed up with the MSM.

President Trump called out the media again on twitter today, he tweeted out this:

I totally agree with that tweet.

While the media are trying their best to be an enemy to Trump… how much do you want to bet that they don’t realize that they are an enemy to all of us? The American People? The mainstream media thinks we’re all stupid and gullible but we’re not. We’re not going to vote for Hillary because they want us to. The American people should decide who to vote for, not the media.

Trump is right they are doing a great disservice to our country all the way.

However, there are still a lot of people that still believes everything the media says which is mostly liberals and some independent voters.

Hey media, if you don’t want Trump calling you our and if you want your respect back then why don’t you be honest for once? Get rid of the liberal bias and be honest on both sides of the spectrum. That’s why we all turn to Breitbart news and yes, Fox News too ’cause there’s no liberal bias in any of them.

The media lied to get Barack Obama elected. They tried that again with Hillary but it didn’t work this time.

If you guys in the MSM want your ratings back then bring back real journalism and stop trying to ram liberalism down our throats. We’re fed up with it. Keep it up, media. Once again, you’ll lose the 2020 election and will never see a Democrat president ever again.

President Trump gives fake news media a verbal beatdown during press conference… the media totally deserved that though…

16729500_10158628155215354_3240104035038354584_n.jpg

I didn’t watch today’s press conference with President Trump bashing the media directly to their faces but I did read a lot about it, though. What Trump did was just glorious. This is the kind of Trump that we all love. It’s what we all voted him for pretty much. We love Trump ’cause we love him being the “tough guy”. Trump being the tough guy is a huge part of how he won the election to begin with.

The media spent a whole year or more during the primaries, bashing and attacking Trump like mad. Now that Trump is president, the media still won’t leave him alone. Now that Trump is president, the media is more aggressive than ever before. Well Trump finally couldn’t take their crap anymore and gave them a verbal smackdown during press conference earlier today.

I haven’t watched it yet ’cause I was busy doing other things but I’ll get around to watching on youtube tonight. I’m sure it’s real good.

I love it. When Trump calls out the media, the media predictably runs away and cry like babies. They don’t like being called “Fake News” and they don’t like Trump calling them out. They also cry “Freedom of speech” and “Freedom of the press”. Well fake news media, you’re the one that wasted all that time bashing the man, how else do you want him to respond? Freedom of speech works both ways and he has the freedom of speech to respond to you however he wants to. You so-called journalists deserved that verbal smackdown earlier today, totally.

You know how when an internet cyberbully picks on someone and then that person calls out the cyberbully… then the cyberbully all of a sudden plays innocent victim? It’s the same thing that goes on here. The bully always plays the innocent victim when they are called out by someone. The bully is the media. They’ve always been bullies and troublemakers since the 2008 elections when Barack Obama got elected.

The media are this new generation of “tabloid” news. Quite sad. It’s amazing how dishonest the media is. They’ve been dishonest for over a decade. It’s nothing new. This is a huge part of why most Americans are all for Trump ’cause we’re fed up with the media’s crap.

Even though I admittedly still read the news on the internet, I don’t watch the news on TV, though. I don’t watch NBC, CNN or any of that garbage. Honestly, though, I do find myself watching Fox News more and more ’cause they are more honest than liberal networks. Love ’em or hate ’em, Fox News are the only real journalists left. I don’t watch a lot of FOX News but I do like to watch a few shows on there like Sean Hannity and “Justice” with Jeanine Pirro.

Our news media is so corrupt. They were the reasons why Trump won the election, they helped him. Keep up the hating and the negativity. Trump will win the 2020 re-election and you will never see a Democrat president ever again after that.

During national concerts, you don’t have to worry about forgetting lyrics anymore… thanks for lyrics teleprompters on stage…

I remember in the old days in national concerts, national bands had to memorize lyrics. The beauty of performing live is that you don’t always have to be perfect. You’re gonna forget lyrics, mispronounce words by mistake, you’ll stutter a lot, etc. If you watch famous rock bands play live in youtube, if you look carefully you’ll see a lyrics teleprompter in front of the stage. It’s one of the reasons national concerts sucks these days, ya know? They want everything to be perfect.

These days musicians don’t need to memorize lyrics anymore when performing live. For national musicians, they use lyrics teleprompters. For local and unsigned musicians, they use either Ipads, music stands to set notebooks on ’em, etc. It’s crazy.

Musicians and artists these days are getting even more lazy to memorize lyrics themselves. With me, I’ve always loved to memorize lyrics for songs. When I first started performing live, I started out reading off a music stand but I don’t do that anymore. I like to memorize lyrics by heart which is how it should be. At live shows, I’m gonna mess up lyrics by forgetting them and stuff but again that’s the beauty of “live” performing.

Reading lyrics while singing is not live performing, in my opinion. Sorry but it isn’t. Just get on stage and play what you got. If you mess up? Who cares, the audience is not gonna notice anyways!

Video: Joy Villa gives you advice on how to stay above haters as a performing artist…

I remember when I put out a demo CD in 2006 and started to play a lot of gigs for it, I’ve gotten so many haters, critics and bullies for sure. I’ve gotten so many haters online and offline. This Joy Villa woman who wore the “MAGA” dress at the Grammy’s gives you advice on how to stay above your haters and critics. As music artists, we’re all gonna get ’em. Every artist have their own share of haters, it’s not only me. You just have to learn to stay above ’em.

I almost gave up performing live only because I’ve had too many people negatively criticize me which I should never have. If I want to perform live shows, I can do that as much as I please even if people don’t like it. I love performing live in front of an audience. I haven’t done that in a long time and want to do it again. Yeah, if I ever get back out in the Capital Region music scene performing gigs and open mics again, I’ll probably continue to get a lot of haters but that’s okay. I’ll just learn to stay above ’em and brush ’em off. That’s what this lady said in this video, “Brush ’em off like they’re nothing”. You’re in control of your own life, do what you wanna do and fuck everybody’s feelings.

I’ve had so many people doubt my goals and dreams. I’ve had a lot of people in my life who didn’t support my music much including some friends and family members. Yeah when you want to become a performing artist, you’re going to get a lot of haters. Just ignore them.

I continue to get a lot of haters now. I have other musicians that hates me but that’s okay. I get all kinds of anonymous attacks online but I’m good at ignoring that stuff these days. I just delete and block the trolls.

I’m a musician, singer, guitar player and songwriter. It’s what I do. I will never give it up just because people tell me I can’t do it.

Do I want to get rich and famous off of what I do? No not really but I do want to become the best musician I can possibly be. That’s my goal and if it bothers people, that’s tough. They might think I’m arrogant and egotistical about it sure but there’s nothing wrong with feeling that you are a good musician.

Do whatcha wanna do in your life. Some of your dreams and goals whatever they are might hurt other people but who cares. There are other goals I have other than music like I want to get my license and car one of these days is one of them and have other goals too.

Whenever you want to have a goal there will always be someone who will call you delusional and say you can’t get there. For example, in fitness people criticize me that all the time too. They said I can’t get big and muscular, be in the best shape of my life well look at me now. Still have a lot of work to do in bodybuilding & fitness but I like what I have now.

Once again, do whatcha wanna do and fuck everyone’s feelings. Only you are in control of your life.
