More on Apple Music…

Leave a comment

Most of the day I added a whole BUNCH of albums from Apple Music to my library on my Ipad.

I’ve added a bunch of bands & artists such as Opeth, Dream Theater, Joe Satriani, Queensryche, The Scorpions, The Runaways, L7, Phish, The Grateful Dead, Billy Idol, Jeff Beck, George Benson, Django Reindhardt, BB King, The Ramones, Van Halen, Iron Maiden, Bjork, Black Sabbath, Ozzy solo, Metallica, etc. The list goes on and on.

I only listened to one album that I saved from Apple Music which was an older album by Al Di Meola called, “Scenario” which was really good. I love Al Di Meola’s music. I just can’t stop listening to his stuff as well.

I’ve added a whole variety of music as you can see from metal to jazz to blues. I’ve still got some more albums to add which I will do tomorrow. Yeah I think I’ll definitely stick with Apple Music. I won’t mind paying the $9.99 subscription ’cause that’s cheaper than spotify. Of course Apple made the subscription cheaper than spotify… it’s their way of competing against them, I guess.

I just love listening to music. It’s a big part of who I am and like I said, I’m an “album” kind of guy. I’m old-school so I still listen to full albums while most people out there are pretty selective of what songs they wanna hear.

I got into the digital age of music ’cause the CD industry is pretty much dead… just about. I do miss buying physical CD’s, though and sometimes I still do buy CD’s once in a blue moon.

There are still some technical issues with Apple Music but I’m sure they will fix them… a lot of slowdowns and crashing but like I said before it’s new.

Listening to music is what I’m all about… I gotta be around it.

Well well well, San Francisco woman shot to death by Mexican illegal immigrant… that’s what Trump was talking about!!!

Donald Trump isn’t the one that should be apologizing. NBC, Univision, Macy’s, etc. They’re the ones that should be doing the apologizing to him. This is what Donald Trump was talking about you bunch of losers! Shortly after Trump accused of racism by media and the liberal community, this happens. Woman shot in San Francisco randomly by who? Surprise surprise! An illegal Mexican immigrant!!!

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/07/03/man-arrested-in-connection-with-san-francisco-killing-had-been-deported-several/

Donald Trump is probably laughing at all of you right now and saying, “I told ya so, you should’ve listened to me!”

RIP to that woman too btw. Sad and tragic. We’re gonna get this more and more, y’all. The borders are wide open and those undocumented criminals are gonna come out to kill all of us. That’s what Obama wanted.

As I predicted, Donald Trump beat Jeb Bush in the GOP polls… despite Mexican controversy…

Leave a comment

Not surprisingly, Donald Trump is now the frontrunner of the GOP candidate in the upcoming Elections. WHy? Like I said, more and more conservatives in America respected him for being realistic. That’s what the American people wanna see, that’s who the American people wanna support… real honest people. Americans are getting fed up with liars so since Donald Trump has been doing nothing but telling the truth, that’s why more and more people are starting to support him.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/trump-touts-rising-poll-numbers-faces-growing-backlash-article-1.2280676

I’m also noticing that Bernie Sanders is the no. 1 frontrunner for the Democrat side so it may as well be Trump vs. Sanders on the nomination? Hillary doesn’t have a chance ’cause of all the scandals she has: Benghazi, the e-mails, the Clinton Foundation, etc. Hillary will have no choice but to quit like she did last time.

Even though I’m not a big fan of Sanders, I can deal with him more than Hillary, though. Anybody is better than Hillary! Still though, Bernie Sanders better watch out ’cause Jim Webb just jumped on the Democratic race so Webb could potentially beat Sanders in the polls.

Anyway, back to Trump, his honesty maybe controversial yes but controversy is good. It’s what he needs to do to earn more votes. Love him or hate him all you want to, Trump could easily get past the primaries.

We really need a guy like Trump in the White ’cause he’s a good negotiator. Obama was never a good negotiator. Trump could negotiate with other world leaders pretty well.

I really hope we get Trump in the White House ’cause we really need him.

What’s weird about all this is… everyone is accusing Trump of “racism” when what he really said wasn’t racist at all but George Takei said something really racist and doesn’t get any shit back. How come Al Sharpton didn’t go after George?

Anyway, I think Donald Trump is gonna do good in the election. All this stuff about the Mexican illegal aliens being criminals is just the beginning.

Apple Music is actually very impressive, WOW! I don’t get all the hate!

Leave a comment

Whenever Apple tries something new, chances are the company is gonna get all kinds of haters no matter what they do. I think what they’re doing is very good and I’m actually pretty impressed with Apple Music. I might even subscribe to that service after all and ditch Spotify. Apple Music costs $9.99 pr. month once the free months are up. Once I subscribe to Apple Music full time, I’ll no longer have to buy music from Itunes which is what they made the streaming service for is so they can help people save money, ya know?

This afternoon, I started adding music that I want to my Itunes library on my Ipad. All the albums that I wanted to hear from Joe Satriani, Opeth, Grateful Dead, Dream Theater, Joe Bonamassa, BB King, etc. to the “My Music” section on my Ipad so I can listen offline. I’ll also be able to listen to all the Led Zeppelin Deluxe albums ’cause they’re all on there too.

How would I get these albums on my Ipod Touch, the 4th generation? I got the 4th Generation Ipod Touch, the 6.1.6 version so I can’t get Apple Music on there. If I wanted Apple Music on my Ipod Touch, I would have to buy the latest edition of the Ipod Touch which I will sometime in the future. I’m sure there’s a way to get these albums from Apple Music on my Ipod Touch, I’ll figure it out. I like to have albums on my Ipod Touch ’cause I like to listen to music while working out at the gym or listen to music while running and doing my cardio.

So far, I have no problem with Apple Music and don’t see why it’s getting hated on? The sound quality is pretty good and still the same. The only issues are that the Apple Music when browsing for artists, it’ll start to slow down and crash but keep in mind, the service is new so there’s gonna be a lot of technical issues which I’m sure they will fix soon.

I wish I thought of this before I bought those 5 albums from the Itunes store today. Maybe I should send those back and get my refund?

Yeah, I definitely might go with Apple Music instead of Spotify.

30 years ago today the first “Back To the Future” film was released…

Leave a comment

This is one of my favorite films of all time. While I do love the BTTF trilogy, the first will always be the best. It’s a classic indeed and I love it so much. I may as well re-watch it again later tonight.

Like most, I’ve seen it over a hundred times and it’s one of those films I’ll never get tired of.

Album purchases from Itunes today…

1 Comment

Well today, I just purchased 5 albums from the Itunes store… this time I got:

  • Al Di Meola “Elysium” – I just got the new album by Al Di Meola that he just put out. I listened to it in Spotify already and it’s really good. The album was a little over priced ($15.99) but I had to get it. Such a great album. I think it’s his best yet.
  • Grateful Dead “Shakedown Street” and “Wake of the Flood” – I’ve seen that Itunes brought the prices down on all the Grateful Dead albums for $6.99. Probably part of the reason is to help celebrate the final Dead concerts and to celebrate their 50th anniversary. So I got two Dead albums. I love the Grateful Dead and wanna start getting more of their music.
  • Joe Satriani “Flying In a Blue Dream” – Another album from the Satch. Trying to collect all of his albums too.
  • Opeth ” Deliverance” – Since I’ve been listening to Opeth a lot on Spotify, I just had to get an album of theirs so I have one of my own so I picked “Deliverance” which is my favorite album I’ve heard of theirs so far. All of their music is great, though. Gonna start collecting their music ’cause I’m impressed by this band. My new addiction.

Also, I just successfully subscribed to the 3 free month trial of Apple Music. I’m gonna try that out to see if I like it or not. If I like it enough, I might stick with Apple Music instead of Spotify but I’ll make a decision soon. I’ll write an honest review of Apple Music soon.

I don’t know about you but Bob Weir is one HELL of a singer and guitar player. Oh wow. Even though Jerry Garcia originally sung the lead vocals on this song, Bob still did really well. I love Bob’s guitar playing style. If you watch Bob play rhythm guitar and watch what he’s doing… he does more than just playing open chords. His fretting hand is always up and down the neck. I’m pretty sure Bob is playing a lot of chord inversions. He knows the map of the fretboard. Once you’ve mastered the map of the fretboard, you’ll be able to play chords everywhere. Really, watch the way Bob plays, he moves his fretting hand all over the place. I would like to learn how to play rhythm guitar like that.

Trey Gowdy says Obama or Kerry could end Benghazi investigation today if they wanted…

Leave a comment

In an interview on FOX News with the Greta show, Trey Gowdy says that Obama or Kerry could end his Benghazi Select Committee today if they wanted. Meaning that they can hand over the records and give him the truth just to make him go away which is an interesting thought.

Check it out:

Benghazi chair: Obama could end probe ‘today’

The question you have to ask is, will the Obama admin. give themselves up and give Trey Gowdy the truth just to stop the investigation? No. I don’t think Obama will ever do something like that ’cause why? If Obama gave himself up and handed over the records, it could land Obama in serious trouble. Obama could have gave himself up two years ago if he wanted but he never did. The Benghazi investigation is still going. The investigation will continue as long as Obama’s not gonna cooperate. If Obama’s not cooperating then he’s definitely hiding something. Obama can go in the Benghazi Select Committee and interview with him anytime he wants to but he never did. Obama never testified for Benghazi yet and he didn’t hand in any records or anything like that. I have a feeling that the Benghazi investigation will go on for as long as it takes. Trey Gowdy is never gonna stop until he gets the truth whether Obama gives it to him or not.

Obama knows the truth of Benghazi… he saw the whole thing and he knows everything for sure. He’s just not cooperating. Obama won’t give himself up ’cause he knows it’s gonna get himself arrested if he did.

Trey is taking a long time to get answers ’cause most of the investigation is done privately and he’ll release the info when he’s ready. Keep in mind, there’s a lot of truth to get out of Benghazi so it’s gonna be a long and tough investigation.

I wish Obama would act like a grown up and make things easier for them by giving himself up and turning himself in but he won’t. That fucking coward won’t take responsibility for anything. Obama is a piece of garbage and needs to be locked up. Hopefully Trey will be the one to get him.

This tweet about liberals is so dead on, Amen!!!

Are liberals really liberals as they claim to be? I vote, NO!!! If I remember correctly, liberals never used to be this bad until Obama got elected. Libtards are obsessed with the word “bigots”, well they can be “bigots” too. Bigotry works both ways. They’re being “bigots” over this Donald Trump thing, the Confederate Flag and what else? They really are a bunch of haters and it really bothers the hell out of me how one-sided they really are.

They support & defend everything on the left and they hate everyone on the “right”. So pathetic ya know? Once again, before anyone accuses us of being “one-sided” too, we’re not ’cause most of us don’t support the GOP anymore. We’re smart enough to be realistic on our own party. There is no “Yes man” on our side at all. Why must the left be a bunch of “yes men” on their own party? It’s just sickening. It’s all insanity. Left-wingers are really despicable people and they deserve to be called, “libtard” ’cause they earned that word. They would call out those who opposes their views and has different opinions. It’s just pathetic really.

It’s no surprise to see that they gave George Takei a free pass for calling Clarence Brown “a clown in blackface” and that’s more offensive than the Confederate Flag. Ban George Takei off of facebook.

Want more proof of liberal bias in media? NBC accuses Donald Trump of racism but George Takei goes on racist rant against Clarence Thomas…

While I’m a huge fan of the original Star Trek series and I love that Sulu character, I’m not a big fan of George Takei as a person. Honestly, I blame him for making “gay rights” so big and mainstream. Takei definitely had a huge hand in helping making all the gay stuff a big deal.

While libtard media is calling Donald Trump a racist, they are celebrating a racist gay rights hero who is George Takei. Takei went on a racist tirade on Clarence Thomas who is a Supreme Court justice:

http://newsbusters.org/blogs/scott-whitlock/2015/07/02/george-takeis-racist-rant-clarence-thomas-clown-black-face

You won’t see libtard America calling Takei a racist. You won’t see NBC cutting ties with Takei. Takei is insane and delusional. I can’t stand that guy and don’t understand why he is hailed as an internet hero. Fuck that dude, George is a piece of shit.
