Apple really sucks with their online purchasing…

Ever since Steve Jobs left us, Apple has gotten much worse since. I love the Ipad and Ipod and stuff but I am not a big fan of their online stores: Itunes and the App Store. I went on both of those stores to purchase a few things with a gift card. I redeemed the gift card and after every time you want to buy something, you have to put your password in and after that they force you to answer security questions. You have to answer security questions after every time you want to order something which is ridiculous. I forgot the security questions so I had to reset them which was a pain to figure it all out and go through all that work. I understand it’s all about security and protection of your account but Apple needs to make this stuff more easier and user friendly. Their customer service team is really bad too.

Last night I purchased three things. I purchased the Ghost B.C. album, “Infestissumam” for the new Ipod touch, I rented the movie “The Wolverine” for the Ipad (which I will watch later this evening) and I bought the first and original “Tomb Raider” game for the Ipad (which was only 99 cents).

I really like Apple gadgets but it’s their services that sucks and I’m sure you would agree.

This is exactly why bands shouldn’t be against music piracy… take note from Iron Maiden!!!!!

Are all bands against music piracy? Are they against fans downloading their music for free illegally? Not all of them. Some of them are actually all for people stealing their music whenever they want to. Metal legends, Iron Maiden has been in touch with a company called, MusicMetric, which is a company that measures data of how well a band does with illegally downloaded music. The company is able to tell how much music is illegally downloaded in countries all over the world. Iron Maiden has found that a lot of people has downloaded their music illegally from countries such as South America, Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico, Colombia, and Chile. Is the band upset for fans illegally downloading their music? Nope. Think again. Seems like they are so flattered that they performed concerts for pirates instead.

Read the full story, here.

See? This is what I’M FUCKING TALKING ABOUT GUYS!!!! It should be all up to the band how they want to release their music, not the labels. There are some bands out there that think music should be a free market and it’s great to see that Iron Maiden is one of those bands who believe in it.

This is their way of taking a stand against the shady music industry and it’s awesome. Makes me respect Iron Maiden even more now!

Music doesn’t always have to be about the money, ya know? It should be about playing music for the people and sharing it. That’s what a lot of these guys do it for. Iron Maiden doesn’t give a rats ass about money and this shows it too! It’s all about the love of music guys. If you let people take your music free… you can get more popular and more fans that way.

I refuse to put my music on Itunes and Spotify ’cause I don’t want people paying for my music. I’ll just let people take it and listen to it. A free music market is a better way to get your music out there.

Film Review: Grudge Match

Starring: Sylvester Stallone, Robert Deniro, Kevin Hart, Jon Bernthal, Alan Arkin, Kim Basinger

Directed by: Peter Segal

Today, the day after Christmas, I’ve decided to go to the movies to go check out the latest Sly movie, “Grudge Match” and here is my review.

Plot/synopsis: Two aging former professional boxers Razor (Stallone) and The Kid (Deniro) go on living their lives 30 years after their final match together. The two of them still hate each other and they still feud together after all these years so the Kid finally challenges Razor a re-match. Razor kept refusing to fight because he is done and wants to move on; however, The Kid kept pressuring him to fight one final match with him. Since the Kid still hates Razor he was pretty desperate in settling things in the ring. Of course, Razor finally accepts The Kid’s challenge and comes out of retirement just to help himself get out of his financial troubles. Razor was broke and couldn’t afford to pay his rents for his home. As their fight approaches, their boxing promoter (Kevin Hart) tries to promote their fight — Razor and the Kid continues to not get along. The question is who will win this legendary fight? 

Well, I was pretty surprised of this film! Finally, Rocky and Raging Bull team up together in a boxing movie which this was supposed to happen years ago! Even though this film has NOTHING to do with Rocky Balboa at all… you can betcha there will be a lot of similarities and there are tons of Rocky references all over the movie!

This film is not just a boxing drama. It’s actually a comedy. Stallone and Deniro were pretty funny on screen. I definitely did have a lot of laughs. Deniro’s character, The Kid, kept trash talking Razor and Razor never wanted anything to do with the guy which is hilarious stuff. Some of the lines that Deniro says just had me crackin’ up… he was entertaining as hell like always. Look like Stallone is trying to do comedy films more. “The Expendables” movies are action comedies and so was “Escape Plan” a little bit. I guess it’s a new thing for Sly these days that he wants to do comedy more and I think he does a good job at it. While Sly Stallone is mostly known as an action guy… I guess he wants to show that he can be funny and he WAS funny in this movie. What I love the most about this movie is that Stallone continues to show his love for boxing and the same with Deniro.

The writing and the script was also good. Casting was good. Even though Kim Basinger is aging, she’s still looking hot. Jon Bernthal (Shane from “The Walking Dead”) did a great job in his first major acting role. Iron Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield make surprising cameos — not saying what they do ’cause I don’t wanna reveal any spoilers. I don’t know much about Kevin Hart and even he was entertaining as well!

This was a well-made film. I liked it a lot. The film didn’t bore me at all.

Two thumbs up!

Obama is not the only problem with America, Congress is a huge problem too!!!

A new poll has been released and two-thirds of Americans finds that the 113th Congress is the worst in history. A lot of Americans are finding that both the House and the Senate has done nothing to fix America’s problems.

Read the full story, here.

I really don’t find this all that surprising either. Once again President Obama is not the only problem with our homeland. Our entire government overall are destroying our country and they have chosen to do nothing about it.

If we had better people in government doing their jobs then Barack Obama would have definitely been impeached and arrested a long time ago but nothing has been done about his shady presidency. People in Congress knows he is bad (mostly republicans, of course) but so far they haven’t done anything to impeach him and they know he has done all kinds of impeachable offenses.

I think the reason Congress does nothing about him ’cause that’s how President Obama wants it. It’s all power and control. Just Obama’s way of trying to get away with impeachment.

I do agree though that this is the worst Congress in history. Honestly, I think our whole government overall is responsible for things like Benghazi and Operation: F&F happening. If our government wasn’t such a mess then maybe those tragedies wouldn’t have happened, ya know? Our whole government are evil scum, not just Obama. They haven’t done anything about Obama ’cause they are helping to protect him too.

America certainly deserves better. Impeach and arrest all of those evil fuckers. Get ’em all the hell out. They all should rot in hell — not just Obama.

My Led Zeppelin gift for this year…

1479358_10151886712633131_1843593011_n

Pretty much every year for Christmas, I would get something that is Led Zeppelin related and here is this year. This thing was a gift from my brother. He made it himself. He does a lot of woodwork and stuff so he made me this. The 4 Led Zeppelin symbols.

I’ll probably hang this on the wall in this room somewhere.

Really… Led Zeppelin means so much to me. I may like all kinds of music out there but Led Zep will always be my number one. Led Zep are the reasons why I do what I do. They’re my heroes. If it weren’t for them then I’ve probably would have never became a musician.

Jimmy Page will always be the greatest guitar player ever. I don’t care what all the Led Zep haters think. They’re the greatest rock n’ roll band in the history of music. End of story.

Cool Video: Why girls flirt even if they have boyfriends…

Over the years, I’ve had many women who either had boyfriends/husbands flirt with me or wanting me to be their friend, and I could never figure out why that is. Like at all those band shows I go to when I get my dance on I get quite a few women who already had their dates there wanting to dance with me and stuff. Probably because their boyfriends doesn’t give them enough attention at their parties and those ladies just wanna have some fun. So since I make it look like that I’m having fun at  these band shows or dance parties, women would want to dance with me ’cause their boyfriend doesn’t dance and looks bored as hell. I’ve gotten flirted by women who either have boyfriends or is already married.

These two girls explain those reasons pretty nicely.

While it is annoying that women who are already taken seem to be interested in me… I don’t really mind it, though ’cause it lets me know that I’ve pretty much got it with the women and should have no problem hooking up with them.

Would be nice if more single women would talk to me, though.

Check out the Wing Girls channel. Seems like another cool dating advice site that adds some comedy to them. This was the first video I watched by them so I’ll have to watch more of their stuff.

You can’t deny that women have huge ego problems when it comes to men, though. Since they think they are so beautiful and hot, they just love that attention and like to show off at every guy they see. They like to think they’re better than us for sure.

Unsurprisingly, Egypt names Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group…

What do you make of this one? Egypt finally names Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group. Is the Muslim Brotherhood peaceful? Egypt doesn’t think so.

Read more on the story, here.

These are the people [Muslim Brotherhood] who the Obama administration highly supported. They aided them guns earlier this year and money as well. These are also the people who Barack Obama supports on a regular basis. Obama even invited them to the White House personally also.

Egypt are upset at Obama being President ’cause they won’t stop protesting.

I don’t see how you can call Obama innocent and harmless after him treating the Muslim Brotherhood like they are his friends. Even more hints that Obama could be Muslim.

You should check out Rand Paul’s twitter… good stuff…

Just Senator Paul’s way of wishing our government a Merry Christmas. Hope Barack and Michelle and their two daughters will enjoy their day tomorrow. Hopefully, Barack won’t be around to celebrate next year’s Christmas.

Edit to add: Btw, nobody is wishing death on Obama… I was referring to impeachment or arrest, of course.
