David Bowie hints at new music… new album on the way???

Prior to the release of David Bowie’s latest album, “The Next Day” which came out last year, Bowie forced us to wait for 20 years for that album to come out. There was a lot of speculation over the years that Bowie was done with music. Turns out that he wasn’t. The album “The Next Day” came out… it sold well and got great reviews from critics and fans.

Last Saturday, Bowie held a charity auction event in London and he sent fans a surprising message that he’s planning to release new music soon. So does this mean he’s planning to release another new album???

I’m glad Bowie is not done making music. He maybe done performing on the stage and touring but nothing’s stopping him from making new songs. It’s pretty obvious that he’s done performing live on the stage. I mean, when his latest album “The Next Day” came out… there were no shows announced for it. Bowie didn’t even perform any songs from that album on late night talk shows either so I guess he is done performing for good.

Ah well, at least he’s still making albums, though. Good for him. I’m a longtime Bowie fan. I’ve loved his music for years and still do. He’s a huge inspiration for my own songwriting as well.

“America” by Dinesh D’Souza brief review…

Today I just finished reading Dinesh’s book, “America” on the Ipad. I did end up buying this book for the Ipad ’cause I know I wouldn’t be able to find this book in bookstores. This book was easy to read and it was short so it only took me about three days to read.

This is an important book that everyone in America needs to read. Doesn’t matter the party you’re in. Since that Dinesh is a conservative, this book really isn’t aimed at just conservatives. He talks about both conservatives and liberals. The story of Dinesh’s “America” really isn’t about America disappearing off the globe… it’s really about us going through a transformation by our US government.

Throughout the book, he goes throughout our US history trying to give you a clear picture of what America would have been like if those things didn’t happen. He goes through most of US history, the birth of America in 1776 to what goes on today.

He gets a lot of criticism and hate from liberals accusing this guy of attacking Obama but that’s not the point of this book. The point of this book is just a warning to us all that America is changing but not in a good way. He talks about Obama but this book really isn’t about him. The book is about what’s happening to America. Our homeland.

Dinesh does however gets into deep insight of how Obama turned out to be though. Look up these names: Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Edward Said and Roberto Unger who are known as the “Founding Fathers of Obama”. They are the ones who made Obama to what he is today. Obama’s Kenyan father, Obama Sr. was also a huge influence in Obama’s goal of transforming America. All of these men associated with Obama in the past.

This is an important book that everyone needs to read. See the movie too. I’ll see the movie when it comes out on DVD/BluRay.

Instead of attacking Dinesh and hating on him, you should actually read his books or see his films. Maybe you would be interested in what he have to say. I respect the hell out of him ’cause he is the master at debating politics and this guy is not afraid to tell the truth even if it gets him in trouble. The things that this guy says about Obama is true and makes a lot of sense. This guy is not a conspiracy theorist like many called him. I enjoy watching Dinesh’s debates and TV interviews. He’s an interesting guy. He is somebody I’d like to meet in person someday.

I suggest you guys to read this book or see the movie. Either one is cool, if you got the guts. When you do, you may actually see that this guy is not all that bad. I would like to see this movie but it isn’t playing anywhere around here so I’ll just wait for DVD/BluRay.

This guy Dinesh D’souza was the one who helped me wake up about a lot of stuff on Obama. Dinesh does a great job. You really should check him out. I’m a huge fan of his work.

Phish… I don’t care what anyone thinks about them… they’re still great…

Phish is still getting a lot of haters. I can never understand why. I don’t see any reason to hate Phish. To me they’re just a band like all the others. Just doing their thing. Making music and touring.

The haters and doubters accuse this band of a lot of things… they accuse them of jerking themselves off and being arrogant. They’ve been called by every name in the book by people. They also don’t like how they get fans into drugs and all of that.

I’ve said it repeatedly that it’s not the band’s fault that they get people into drugs. That is how the hippie movement have always been. It goes way back to the 60’s. People have been doing drugs at concerts for many years. It’s called psychedelic. If you think the drugs with Phish is bad… then why don’t you check out the Grateful Dead. Fans and drugs were a lot worse with the Grateful Dead. I know that drugs are a huge problem with Phish, that can not be denied but I don’t care about the drugs, man. It’s about the music. The music is what makes Phish great.

I’ve always respected Phish as I’ve listened to their music for many years and I’ve seen them in concert a few times as well. I still respect the band.

Like I said, I see no reason to hate them at all. They’re just a band, that’s all they are. Their music is just very enjoyable to listen to.

If you want to get a good idea of what the band is all about watch their interview in the video below. It’s good stuff. They seem like nice and down to earth guys. Trey is always smiling and enjoying himself. So why the hate?

I think their new album, “Fuego” is the best album they’ve ever done. You really should check it out and give it a listen yourself. I have no problem with Phish at all.

I don’t understand why that so many people who used to be fans of the band turned their backs on them. I think jealousy is a huge part of that. Phish is getting bigger. They had a 30 year career and the band is still very popular. They still sell out shows. The psychedelic and jam band movement is still alive and well. I never turned my back on Phish. I will always be loyal to them.

Love ’em or hate ’em… Trey Anastasio is a musical genius. Phish deserves more respect for a lot of reasons.

Becoming a more professionally skilled guitarist takes time and hard work but I’m getting there…

My goal as a guitarist is to fully master the instrument. Become more professionally skilled. Not really a virtuoso but my goal is to become a great guitar player. I have been trying to get there for the past 19 years I have been playing.

I feel that I got good enough at rhythm guitar. I have a good sense of timing with the metronome now. I think I totally understand… timing, rhythm and tempo. A long time ago, I used to hate playing along with a metronome ’cause it used to be so hard but now I love it. Playing along with a metronome is a piece of cake now. The more you practice, the easier it becomes.

While I feel I’m a good enough rhythm guitarist, I feel I still have a lot of learning to do on lead guitar and I’m doing all I can to improve that as well. I practice every day on lead guitar. Trying to become great at guitar solos like all of my guitar heroes: Hendrix, Satriani, Page, etc. I wanna be able to play like them but add my own style to it as well.

It takes years and years of practice and hard work to get great at guitar. I just wanna take my guitar playing to the next level. Become more advanced. I’m studying music theory too and I think that’s important for me to do is to memorize all of this music theory stuff and understand it all. Music theory isn’t that hard to learn either. Getting better at ear training and improv too. I wanna become an improv musician. Be able to play what I hear in my head is my goal.

I appreciate that there are a lot of bands and solo artists writing songs with guitar but many of them are forgetting one thing. Great guitar playing. Sure, it’s okay to throw a bunch of chords together and write a little song with it but if they take the guitar playing more seriously… that’ll take your songwriting to the next level.

I’m trying to get better. I wanna become a guitar great and it just takes a lot of time to get there. Still have a lot of learning to do.

Conservatism is still alive and strong, it’s just not being promoted hard enough…

Conservatism is still alive and strong. It may not seem like it but it is. Evidence of that is that Barack Obama’s polls and ratings are not doing too good. So I’m in good company when it comes to conservatives in America. Conservatism is actually bigger than liberalism. It’s hard to see because Conservatism is not promoted enough by the national news media. It’s pretty obvious that national media is being way too liberal: NBC, CNN, MSNBC, CBS, PBS, etc. National media on the internet is a bit too liberal as well.

This is why a lot of people still can’t see Obama’s lawlessness. This is why a lot of people still can’t see that Hillary intentionally left 4 Americans dead at the Benghazi consulate. It’s because national media have been heavily promoting liberalism. Liberals look at liberal news as “credible source” while conservatives look at national media as a big joke. We don’t believe any of it. Many of us believe that the news media is just as corrupt and broken. They don’t wanna be honest about Obama’s lawlessness and the criminal actions of this administration.

Obama impeachment would have definitely happened if news media was more conservative. If the news media was more aggressive on Obama and if they reported his lawlessness more, than impeachment would have definitely been possible.

This is why I don’t pay attention to what goes on in national news like all those TV networks I listed above. I don’t watch any of them for news on politics. Too liberal for me… plus they make this administration look too good. I use the internet to follow what’s going on, mostly. The only news network that is more conservative is FOX News obviously. I don’t even watch that station either. Although, I think they’re doing a good job with the Benghazi investigation ’cause they are the only network being real about this administration. Why do you think Barack Obama hates them so much? Behind the scenes, I’m sure Barack tried to control FOX News and tried to tell them what they can and can’t report but FOX News wouldn’t go for his bullshit which is good for them. That’s why that network gets my respect. My question is, how come FOX News is the only network getting on this administration? We need more.

If the news media did their jobs… promote Obama’s lawlessness more… then it would be possible that we can take this guy down. People don’t agree with impeachment ’cause there’s not enough. The media is not promoting impeachment enough.

Republicans in Congress refuse to impeach Obama ’cause they’re worried of losing their career over racism. That is pretty much why Speaker Boehner decided to do the lawsuit instead of impeachment. Republicans are scared of impeaching the man for whatever reason. Even though they do know he is a lawless president and even though they don’t like Barack, they’re still afraid to impeach him. Why? Have some balls… do whatever it takes to save America even if it maybe a risk to your career. I would have lost my job just to save America. Anything. How come Republicans have to be such cowards about it?

This is exactly how Obama won’t get impeached. The race card would get played.

If that’s how Republicans are gonna be, then they are traitors. All of them. If Barack was a conservative president and white, he wouldn’t have lasted long at all.

I still say never say never on Obama removal from office. If not impeachment, then he might resign if too much info of his scandals gets out there. We’ll have to wait and see.

Back to conservatism vs. liberalism, I’m not saying get rid of the liberal party completely. I’m saying to give us a little more respect. This country doesn’t revolve around liberals. They need to respect our beliefs and opinions. Give us a little more freedom… that’s pretty much why we’re getting a little fed up with them. That’s why we criticize them a lot. Like I said before, conservatism is still alive and strong… it’s just not as mainstream as it used to be.

If Reagan was still alive, he would have been disgusted with liberal media too. He would have started another conservative revolution if he was still here. He would have did whatever it took to make conservatism big again.

Weird Al video no. 2… “Word Crimes”… Robin Thicke parody…

Here is Weird Al video no. 2. “Word Crimes” which is a parody of that crappy Robin Thicke song that I absolutely hate. Thankfully Weird Al made his take on the song a lot better. I enjoyed Weird Al’s version a lot. This one is a lot funnier than, “Tacky” in my opinion.

Al Yankovic is so right. If you have bad grammar and spelling on the internet, you get mocked for it.

I like how Al writes comedy songs that are based on reality and songs that people can relate to. He not only wants to entertain people with his music, he also wants to help people.

My writing and grammar may not be perfect admittedly but I have been studying and learning on my own, though.

Not everyone have to have perfect English online. A lot of people use the internet as if they are talking to you in the real world if you know what I mean.

Even the best writers don’t always have perfect English… they make mistakes too. Why do you think authors and journalists have editors???

I’m gonna get the new Weird Al album in a couple of weeks.

Why liberals refuse to believe Hillary’s involvement in the 4 deaths of Benghazi…

Predictably, the autograph session event at the Northshire Bookstore in Saratoga Springs is sold out. The one where Hillary is scheduled to do an autograph signing for “Hard Choices”. Conservatives try to warn Hillary’s involvement with the deaths of 4 Americans of Benghazi and conservatives tried to protest but sure enough, liberals don’t listen to us. I’m sure liberals know about Hillary’s involvement with the Benghazi attacks, they just don’t believe that she intentionally left those 4 Americans dead. In their mind they believe that Hillary did the right thing not sending military help and all of that. Liberals refuse to believe Hillary’s a murderer for a few reasons: 1) Hillary’s chapter on Benghazi in “Hard Choices” (liberals fell for her lies) 2) Bill Clinton and Obama help defended her 3) Liberal media helps defend her (liberal news stations like NBC, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, CBS, etc.) 4) Many of them actually believe that the reason for the attacks was over some silly youtube video (thanks to that idiot Susan Rice). 5) Other biographers who write about Hillary helped defend her and newspapers/magazines, etc.

Bookstores all over America know about Hillary’s involvement and they know she is being put down in a negative way in politics but bookstores don’t care. As long as her book is selling and as long as she’s popular, bookstores in America will book her for an event ’cause it’s all about the money. They know that Hillary will sell a lot of tickets. They won’t give a shit how criminal Hillary is. They know that Hillary will make them a lot of money. Bookstores don’t care about politics and they don’t care how controversial a famous person is. As long as it makes them the money, that’s all they care about.

It would be nice if bookstores around the US would grow a spine and not book her an event ’cause of her Benghazi involvement but nope. They can’t resist Hillary ’cause of her popularity. They know she can make these bookstores the money.

When she does these book signings, I’m sure Hillary will get a few hecklers. I’m sure she gets protesters standing outside of the bookstore during these events. That’s how Benghazi is gonna haunt her forever. It’s never gonna go away. People will not forget.

Hillary needs to be in prison and I hope she gets caught before 2016. In a later topic, I will talk about more on how liberal media is a huge problem in our country.

It’s insane how she’s getting all of this support. It’s not jealousy ’cause there’s nothing to be jealous of Hillary about. They don’t realize that they are showing support for someone who took orders to leave 4 Americans dead by a certain somebody. If you wanna support a cold-blooded murder by all means, go for it. Be my guest. Someday you’re gonna regret supporting Hillary when you find out what kind of woman she really is.

Remember, Hillary was partly involved in Nixon’s Watergate cover-up so she’s definitely no stranger to cover-ups. This is true, look it up. She was a part of Nixon’s scandal when she was young. So her experience of cover-ups go waaaaayyyy back.

Hillary is famous for being famous, much like all of them reality stars…

Hillary is obviously very popular and I can never understand why but this is just my observation. In my opinion, Hillary is famous for being famous kind of like all of those reality stars such as Paris Hilton, Snooki, Kim Kardashian, etc. Hillary fits right in there perfectly. Yes Hillary have been First Lady (which doesn’t count as political experience), Senator and Secretary of State but that is all. Through those positions she has been in over the years, she has done nothing positive or heroic. She accomplished nothing through those three positions. What have she done that is so heroic? Why is she such an inspiration to many? She hasn’t accomplished anything heroic and positive. She hasn’t made a difference with America. So why is this woman so special to left wingers?

She doesn’t deserve fame. I think she got fame ’cause fame obviously fell on her lap and she obviously got it through Bill Clinton. Bill helped her get the fame. Don’t go making all of these claims and lies that you think she is an accomplished woman when she is not. Don’t go showing me all of these ridiculous lists of what she accomplished over the years ’cause they are all made up lies. She hasn’t done anything to get the fame.

I think the only reason that the left is dying to make her President is ’cause it’s a great opportunity for them to accuse the right of being sexist and misogynistic when they criticize Hillary’s politics. You know how when people criticize Obama, they get called racist? Well the similar thing is gonna happen when Hillary is president. When people bash her, they’ll call them sexist or misogynistic so be ready for that one.

You know how that many think there is nothing wrong with Obama after all the criminal actions he have done? Well the same is gonna happen with Hillary when she’s president. When she’s president she can commit all kinds of criminal acts, shred the constitution to pieces, sign awful laws no one likes and all that stuff… people will always believe she did nothing wrong.

Hillary doesn’t deserve to be where she’s at right now. She should have been in a women’s prison right now. That’s where she should be. She’s a cold blooded murderer. She’s anti-American much like Barack. She needs to be held accountable for what she did to the Benghazi consulate. She shouldn’t be out there living her life… writing books, getting fame and money. She shouldn’t be running for office. She needs to be in prison.

It’s amazing to me that her supporters or fans want to ignore the bad stuff and continue to support her.

Like I said in a post before, I am beginning to think that America supports and embraces criminals if they want to continue to support people like Hillary and Barack. They’re both criminals and monsters. The left support these people ’cause they love the idea of destroying America. The left is just as Anti-American as they are. They want to see America get destroyed and that’s why they find Hillary & Barack heroic.

I am not afraid to say these things. I am not afraid to say things that others doesn’t have the courage to say. I like to say things even if people don’t want to hear it.

Weird Al’s first video for “Mandatory Fun”… “Tacky” (parody of Pharrell’s “Happy)

This was a pretty cool video, I guess. It just have several stand up comedians just dancing and singing along, that’s it. To be honest, I don’t know who most of these comedians are. The only one I know of is Jack Black, of course but I don’t know who the rest of them are.

I have noticed one thing though that is pretty inappropriate for a Weird Al video. The black lady (Aisha Tyler???) in the video who grabbed her breasts and playing with them. Doesn’t seem like a Weird Al thing to me. Most of Weird Al’s material is supposed to be family friendly and I have never seen anything dirty or sexual in Weird Al’s videos over the years. Really weird. I hope Al Yankovic will be careful with this video ’cause some might be offended and controversy might start.

I like Weird Al’s take on the song… I expected the video to be better than that. I’m glad Jack Black and Weird Al finally teamed up together, though… that was long overdue.

Hillary “Benghazi” Clinton coming to town to sign copies of “Hard Choices”…

Yes. It is true. Hillary is obviously on tour for her new book, “Hard Choices”. She’s gonna make a stop in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. at a bookstore called, “Northshire Bookstore” on July 29th. She’s just gonna do an autograph signing it looks like. She won’t be giving a speech of some kind which is predictable. If she gave a speech it would be pretty risky for her ’cause she knows people will be shouting “Benghazi” as some kind of protest.

I would go to this and scream, “BEEENNNNGGHHAAZZzzzziiii…” to her face and bring up “Christopher Stevens” name but that would probably get me arrested. I don’t wanna get arrested for anything so to protest Hillary being there… I just won’t go and I would just boycott Northshire Bookstore for having her. I would never shop there and would never step foot in that store now.

If you look at the facebook above, that post got like over 16 likes and I’m like, “What”??? Probably blind and ignorant liberals who worship the hell out of Hillary Clinton. Her killing 4 men and getting away with it just made her a popular icon in government. Her killing 4 men may as well make her president too. How messed up is that? This country supports murder and embraces it. Welcome to America.
