Purchased three new albums from Itunes this week…

From the Itunes store, I purchased three new albums this week. I recently bought: Sharon Van Etten’s new album “Are We There”, Neil Young’s “A Letter Home” and Al Di Meola “All Your Life” (A Tribute To The Beatles). I’ll listen to these three albums this weekend and will give each one a brief review. I know the Al Di Meola Beatle’s album came out last year but that’s another album of his I always wanted to hear so I decided to grab that one. I wanna get into more of Al Di Meola’s music ’cause he’s really inspiring me and I’ve been loving his music more and more. I’ll probably get more of his albums this summer.

I’ve been getting a lot of albums from Itunes lately ’cause the CD market is pretty dead obviously. You can still buy CD’s at record stores but you can only find latest albums of certain bands and artists. If you want an older album by your favorite band, you won’t be able to find those in record stores anymore. You’ll have to go to Itunes for that. That’s why I bought like 8 albums from the Allman Brothers in Itunes ’cause I know I’m never gonna find the CD at record stores like Best Buy, F.Y.E., etc.

Before the days of Apple and Itunes, the CD market was a big deal… you were able to find anything and everything you want but not anymore.

I don’t buy new albums too much. Only once in a blue moon I’ll buy a new album. I’ve been getting a lot of older stuff from Itunes since you won’t find that stuff in record stores anymore. Itunes is pretty much the record store these days.

I’m not a big fan of Itunes like most but I buy albums there anyway ’cause there is no other places where I can find music. When I’m not playing guitar, I love listening to music by other bands & artists. I like listening to music to relax and to help me think. Helps get my mind off of things.

I’ve been a music lover ever since I was a child so I’ve seen how the music industry changed over the years. I’ve seen how it went from vinyl to cassette to Compact Disc and now the world of MP3 players have taken over. I don’t think a new format will come around anytime soon. Apple and Itunes will be around for many years up ahead.

Internet album plans…

Today, I have recorded a few song ideas down for my upcoming planned internet album. Yes, I still have this in the plans; however, I’m not gonna release the new songs one at a time like I used to. I’m gonna do things a little different this time. I’m not gonna release the next batch of songs until the release date that I’m gonna choose. Before the release date, I’ll upload teaser videos showing small clips of each song that’ll make the album. The album will just be my voice and my acoustic. The songwriting will be in a different direction like I said in the past. More mellower songs. There will be rock songs but I wanna focus mostly on the slower stuff. I wanna focus on my singing and make the singing good hopefully. Do the best I can.

I feel the singing has gotten way better than in the past. In the past, I used to sing in a real deep tone. Singing as if I’m using my speaking voice. I don’t sing like that anymore as I have gotten a bit more of a range in my voice now. I have been practicing with the singing a lot lately and have been using a lot of head voice so you will hear a lot of that. I maybe singing with more higher notes too.

When will the release date be? I don’t know. Lets get the album made first and then I’ll decide.

The album will be free for download. Listen to it on your Ipods or whatever. I don’t wanna spoil things for the release so I’ll sit on these songs until I’m ready to release them. I just recorded guitar parts for a few songs so I won’t forget ’em.

JJ is just joking about leaked photos…

When JJ released this photo calling out the spies leaking the photos to the internet of “Star Wars Episode VII”, I think JJ is just being sarcastic and joking a bit in his little rant there. I mean look at where he taped that note on??? That large piece of metal with the red lights on it. Don’t you think maybe that’s part of the Millennium Falcon??? I think this message is just one of his cryptic teasers. Just one of his weird secrecy stuff, if ya know what I mean.

I know he can’t do anything about leaked photos ’cause that the way the internet and technology is, these days. People are gonna keep leaking photos.

I’m sure we’re gonna see leaked photos of Harrison, Mark, Carrie, Lupita and Gwendoline on set real soon.

Speaking of women… I think women are better at telling the truth about Obama than men are…

If you think the trashtalk of Obama by men can get pretty bad, wait until you see what the women write about Obama. Women can get 10x’s more nastier about Obama than men can be. Women are obviously smarter than men. If you try to debate and argue with a woman who is anti-Obama, she would probably win. LOL!!! You wouldn’t be able to handle her. I’ll admit that men are pretty weak at Obama trash-talking but women are way better at it.

I love reading women’s posts about Obama in facebook… in the Conservative forums. It’s entertaining stuff.

I think it’ll be cool to date a woman who is anti-Obama too. Women despise Obama just as much as the men do. They are better debaters than men are, for sure.

Women do the choosing in dating… and it’s true…

I learned from a few youtube dating videos and I saw a video where it explained that “Women do the choosing” in dating and it’s true sadly. Dating guru’s in youtube want to make it look like that men have the power to get any woman you want but that’s all really bullshit. I’ll repeat that women do the choosing. They choose what guy they want to like and they choose what guy they want to fall in love with. It’s sad but that’s the way it is. I learned from another dating video that you also don’t wanna go out there chasing random women. This certain dating coach in youtube says that you only wanna go for the women who have an interest in you.

When women give you direct eye contact and smile… those are the ones you wanna go for. When she touches you or wants you to give her a hug, those are the ones you wanna go for. When she does those things that means she probably has a love interest in you and probably has sexual attraction to you. Going for the women who give you direct eye contact is probably the best idea.

You don’t wanna go after random chicks in public places ’cause chances are, she doesn’t wanna be bothered and she’ll probably walk away and ignore you.

Like I said before, I don’t think I’ll do long distance dating on the internet and I don’t think I’ll pick up women from bars/clubs either. I pretty much want to try to hook up with women locally like in my hometown of Greenwich. Even though I live in a small town which nothing much to do, there are tons of women all over the place.

I do meet women at local band shows sometimes and I do meet women through friends of certain family members. I gotta find places in town where women go. A coffee shop is a nice idea. There isn’t a Starbucks in Greenwich yet but there are local business’s that have coffee shops around here. There are a lot of women who go to places like Dunkin’ Donuts, Stewarts, Hannaford Grocery Store, etc. As you stand in the line waiting for the cashier if there are women standing in line, you can try to strike up a conversation. Maybe the public library is not a bad idea but again, women don’t wanna be bothered at a library ’cause they’ll be there to read and study or whatever but there maybe a trick to strike up a conversation as long you whisper. Maybe you can help them find a book they’re looking for or something like that or you could help them study. I gotta find things to do.

There is a bar room in Greenwich called the Old Station Inn but I freakin’ hate that place. A lot of women go there too but that place isn’t a great place to meet up women unless you wanna drunk ass woman to take home for a one night stand? Not really my thing, that’s why I wanna stay away from picking up women at bars and nightclubs. I don’t think I can handle it, ya know?

I gotta find places to meet women where there is no alcohol involved. I could join a Yoga class at the Y or something like that. That’s actually not a bad idea at all! I’ve always wanted to learn Yoga and I think there are Yoga classes at the Y. I know a lot of women do those exercise classes at the Y ’cause I see gorgeous women go to those classes at the Y every time I go to the gym.

I also learned that you don’t wanna go after your one woman crush. You wanna go after like 10 women or more and chances are one of them will wanna go out with you.

It’s sad that women do the choosing but it is what it is. I know this because I’ve had plenty of crushes on women over the years who had no interest in me in return whatsoever. When she gives you direct eye contact, talking to you, wants you to hug her or whatever that means she has quite a liking for you. When you go on a first date with her, that means she has accepted you for who you are. When you see women giving you eye contact and smiling, that means she wants you to go over and see what it’s all about.

Next time a woman appears interested in me, I won’t ignore her next time. I’ll just walk up to her and say, “hi, what’s up?”. That’s all I gotta do. Believe me, I’ve had women who appeared interested in me before but I just didn’t care to talk to her. No more of that. I gotta be a man and stop acting like a coward.

While there are women all over Greenwich, you may not find a perfect 10 around here but you will see hot and beautiful women around here. They are around believe it or not. Beautiful women are everywhere. I don’t have to date just beautiful woman. I’ll take an average and pretty looking one, sure. I’m more worried about her personality than looks, though. I hope to find one who’s big into music and movies likes me. Somebody with similar interests.

Another “Star Wars” standalone is happening and Josh Trank is set to direct…

It’s pretty obvious that the two Star Wars standalone films are gonna be for the Han Solo and Boba Fett spin off films, the question is which director is getting which character? We’ll find out soon. “Chronicle” director, Josh Trank has been signed to direct the second Star Wars stand alone film.

I know a lot of fans are complaining that Disney should slow down but Disney did say last year that there will be a new Star Wars trilogy continuing after “Return of the Jedi” and there will be a few standalone films so fans should have expected this. I’m betting your money that these two standalone films are for the Han Solo and Boba Fett spinoffs. That’s what these are probably for.

Could the Bergdhal illegal prisoner trade-in finally get Obama impeached??? That’s what everyone is saying now…..

The calling for the impeachment of Obama is going crazy right now. My facebook newsfeed has been full of “impeach obama” from various political facebook pages like this one for example. Allen West put up a post urging the House to file the articles of impeachment and get it rolling. I heard that Walter Jones is investigating Obama about this too. More and more people in my facebook newsfeed has been mad about Obama about the illegal prisoner trade-in.

My question is why are people very sloooooooowwwwww learners on how bad Obama is? Like I said before, it didn’t take me long to figure him out. Back in the 2008 elections, I had a feeling that this guy is gonna be bad news and I was right.

I would prefer Obama getting impeached over Benghazi, Operation: F&F, NSA, IRS, etc. but if this illegal trade-in would do it, that would do too, I guess.

We just gotta get rid of this douchebag son of a bitch. You guys don’t see what he’s doing to America at all. It was bad for Obama to release those 5 terrorists and it was bad to get Bergdhal freed. Obama is a Muslim and terrorist supporter. That’s why he did it. Period. End of story.

When is the Benghazi big screen movie coming???

So when is Hollywood planning to make the fictional big screen movie about the Benghazi attack? You know how when Katherine Bigelow made “Zero Dark Thirty” that was based on the Bin Laden raid and “Cpt. Phillips” by Paul Greengrass? I’m sure Hollywood is planning a big screen fictional movie about Benghazi but they are waiting for a closure, I bet. Can you see the Benghazi 4: Chris Stevens, Tyrone, Glen and Sean being played by big name Hollywood actors? I can. I can see it being made into a violent action movie ’cause an attack like that seems like it came out of an action movie. It’ll also be made into a serious Oscar award winning drama.

It’ll get made into a big screen movie, I’m sure. It’s only a matter of time. When Hollywood does one; however, I hope nobody in the administration will have anything to do with it ’cause the film will not be accurate and will be full of lies.

I’m sure the Benghazi big screen film will happen in the future. When they do, I hope they’ll be accurate with the real story and not try to make Barack and Hillary look good.
