Godsmack's new cd is pretty good. Disturbed has some good songs but they lean on covers almost every f***ing cd.

I need to get the last two cds of theirs. They were supposed to open up for Aerosmith last summer before Tyler fell off the wagon and or stage. The venue was way too large for them and tickets sales were very slow. Now Aerosmith is back on tour and playing the arena with Joan Jett opening up for them. Ticket prices are beyond stupid. Greedy bastards. 213 plus charges for floor and lower level seating.

Won't be touring for a bit but time will tell.

I wish he would tour a little more extensively up north. Crossing the fingers.

I go through listening phases with them where I will listen to them for a stretch and then take a few months off and go back. Nothing wrong with that.

I have been listening a lot of Dance of Death and playing along with songs like Face in the Sand , No More Lies, Rainmaker, Dance of Death. No really bad Maiden just some cds that get a little more rotation then others.

Mike is fun to watch burning in circles around the stage. He is a big Thin Lizzy fan as well.

Lost Dogs has some interestingly good stuff as well.

I saw the RIOT ACT tour and that is one cd I have a hard time listening to. I go in phases of listening to them and then I take a hiatus for awhile and come back. I imagine Eddie will do another solo cd and mini tour like he did before for it.

My buddy converted me to PJ as he was always playing it in his car. I thoroughly love that PJ never has the same show. So many bands go on tour and play the same bloody set every night. Lameola period. Sucks to hear that EV stated at their last concert that it was to be PJ's last live concert for some time. Vetter man

Well I neutered my Tool problem with Maynardaise and made 100 bones to boot. So he can chuck you farley all the way back to Arizona.

I heard that they have a stuffed life sized doll put behind the drapes at the show and blow a fan at it and it doubles as Maynard OR they could just hire Vin Diesel to tie shoes to his knees instead. Vin's career is in the shitter so he needs the work.

Went downtown as Tool has a day off before the Edmonton show tomorrow. I saw Justin Chancellor walking around but it didn't kick in until I looked at some pics online of him. Saw Maynard walking back to the hotel with his girlfriend/ wife and bodyguard. I asked for an autograph and he mumbled something and his bodyguard basically stood in the way. So much for Maynard professing to the media and everyone that he has turned over a new leaf in atTITude. Talk about Odipus complex and shoveling more bullshit for the media to choke and swallow. I met him in Vancouver when he was on Perfect Circles first cd tour. My buddy who was a Tool fan had some cds and pictures for Maynard to sign. Maynard came up to him and said " If you would have had a Perfect Circle cd cover I would have signed all your stuff " He proceeded to sign one thing for him. PC came here about 3 years ago and after the show the rest of the band was behind the venue signing autographs and mingling with the fans. Maynard struts out the back of the venue and walks right by everyone. I asked him if he would sign at that time and he didn't even acknowledge me and just kept walking. I notice how little things really change , other then that he mumbled something to me as he was walking away rather then basically ignoring me. This tour isn't even for a new release cd. I know that Maynard and his partner in his vinyard had some bad weather hit it so basically I figure this is a tour to help him inject into the vinyard itself. What an ass man. He reminded me of a mini me version of Vin Diesel.

Today was a good day. Stumbled upon an add on Kijiji and someone was dumping section 136 row 15 for the upcoming Tool show here for 125 a ticket. I had two pairs of tickets in sections 114 and 116 which are at the back corner. Section 136 is the section next to the stage. I thought I was going to have to pay a huge amount to move up to this section. Basically 200 a ticket. So I meet the person with the tickets and hand the moolah over and they don't count it. I tell them that they should. The girl goes they aren't my tickets. I find out that she is Ethan Moreau's assistant . NHL player for the Edmonton Oilers and he has been traded so he is dumping his tickets. She wouldn't tell me who he was dealt for but thanks Ethan for the prime time tickets you plugger. Don't let the door hit you on the way out of Edmonton.

Now this is a concert match in heaven. Those bastards better hit Canada.
