Review of Limp Bizkit – Rockfest 2010
August 21, 2010 · Leave a Comment
Remember a couple of years back when everyone hated, supposedly, Fred Durst and everyone thought Limp Bizkit was finished. Think again!

Review of Tool – Undertow
August 8, 2010 · 2 Comments

It contained claymation figures and some disturbing images. I was hooked and had to purchase it. The album is called Undertow. As a second album I would have to say it was well made, but not their best album. In my opinion, most bands make a breakout album; this band gets better as each album comes out. The songs on this album are simple and direct. Dark and grungy feeling come to mind for me. It took me... [Read the full story]

Sick of Standing in Long Lines?
October 8, 2008 · Leave a Comment
Here’s a little math problem for you. Thirty thousand people, approximately 20 beer stands with two workers pouring one beer at a time=pissed off people in looooooong lines!! Why on earth would you not have several beers already poured or more people working so you won’t have to miss 2 or 3 songs of the next group performing on stage? Get a clue people, we didn’t come and pay all that money to stand in line all night! The worst example of this I have ever seen was at the Journey concert in St. Louis at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater. Seems to me this math problem... [Read the full story]
