Music Shit / Re: New Pagans Album? really?

« on: September 30, 2015, 11:10:24 PM »

i think mike hudson is calling his solo group the pagans these days, i do not believe anybody but himself was ever associated with the pagans in any way, and my understanding is the original members were not even offered the opportunity to be part of his band. just a way for him to sell more tickets/CDs or whatever.

the new music is also basically the gayest thing in the known universe.

hash pen is the best, just press a button and get blasted, no more flicking a lighter over and over while driving w my knees. smoke a lot of shatter or wax, not a whole lot of weed, though i usually do keep some on hand for smoking around the house for a change of pace. but driving, its always hash, the smell is minimal and it doesnt cling to everything for 20 minutes the way weed smoke does. the only negative, if it truly is one, is learning the right dosage, its way too easy to get TOO high, hahaha. (or at least too high for working). if you smoke the same way you might step outside at work and suck down a bowl really quick, you'll turn yourself retarded. i limit myself to something like two hits an hour if i have to actually accomplish anything with my day.

Music Shit / Re: RIP Gary Richrath (REO Speedwagon)

« on: September 16, 2015, 01:09:59 PM »

Mortgage people you crawl to your homes
Your security lies in your bed of white foam
You act concerned but then why turn away
When a lady was raped on your doorstep today
Well your blacks are cryin' but your back is still turned
And your freaks are dyin' but your back is still turned
You better stop your hidin or your country will burn
The time has come for you my friend
To all this ugliness we must put an end
Before we leave we must make a stand, oh yeah

Luttrell has said he co-wrote the classic REO song "Golden Country" with Richrath before he left the band in 1972. Richrath is listed as the sole writer of the song, and vehemently denies that Luttrell was a co-writer. The subject matter of Golden Country is actually one of the main issues that led to Luttrell being let go from the band. Luttrell thought that Gary Richrath was writing songs that were too politically motivated, and wanted to focus on less controversial material. One night, the differences between Luttrell and REO Speedwagon came to a head. REO Speedwagon had a gig that was a significant drive from their home in Champaign, Illinois. During the performance, Terry became agitated and refused to continue singing. The band was forced to quit the set and cut the show short. This angered the club owner, and he refused to pay the band for performing. On the drive back, Richrath began an argument with Luttrell over costing the band the performance money. Richrath, and the rest of the band, were extremely upset because the money that they had would be spent on gas getting home, and they would be completely broke. Luttrell became upset and combative. Richrath ordered the car to be pulled over so he could fight Luttrell. When the car stopped, Luttrell fled into a corn field. Richrath suggested that they just drive away and leave Luttrell to find his own way home. Surprisingly, no one in the band disagreed, and they drove off leaving him in the field. No one within the band talked to him after that. It was one of the most unique firings of a front man in Rock n' Roll history.

Music Shit / Let's Get Ripped at the Minahan Crypt

« on: September 09, 2015, 10:15:20 PM »

i have always been sort of into old cameras, and lately i had acquired a couple bags full of vintage cameras and decided to put them to use. i got some super 8 black and white, and some super 8 color film, and various old video tape cameras, and got everything working. i decided to make a music video for our song (Rev Norb and THE ONIONS) "Let's Get Ripped at the Minahan Crypt" because the lyrics are so evocative i figured it pretty much is self explanatory in terms of what the video should contain. thus we did very little planning or preparation, and simply set out one sunny summer evening for the cemetery on the way to a gig. i guess i was hoping for some sort of voodoo magic to make it cool or something, but instead it turned out just rather inept and shitty. apparently i forgot that old film cameras have to be manually focused, so i mostly wasted two rolls of film, which is not at all cheap. in any event, i slapped together some crap and put it up on youtube...

drag and drop the roms into the roms folder, just like you drag and drop files to any external drive. you can download the roms individually from some websites, or download complete torrents.

Non-Music Shit / handheld psp chinese knockoff handheld games

« on: September 03, 2015, 12:41:33 PM »

a few years ago i posted about getting some of these handheld psp looking knockoffs from hong kong. figured i would post an update on them...

couple years later and theyre working great. one has 4 gigs internal memory, the other one 8. enough for thousands of game boy, nes, game boy advance and other games. the emulators are built in, all you have to do is drag and drop the roms. it also has a built in camera, and mp3 player. i use one for music at work, its been running 24/7 for almost a year now and still works great. the other one is in my truck for when i am bored and use it to play games, it also works great.

theres a whole story to go along with it, about us getting brought in by the police and having our parents and the principal at the high school there and stuff, of the five or so people involved in making it, i believe two of us just got suspended for a week, but i think at least one or two of the other guys got kicked out for good. the insert was a photocopied seka centerfold, they threatened us with distributing pornography to minors, copyright infringement, all sorts of bad shit. its a good thing i didnt rat out my mom for letting us make the copies down at her work, the domestic violence shelter. my dad woulda had a field day with that one, and probably have tried getting custody again like he did that time she poked me in the face with a fork... he had my grandma snap this polaroid to take down to social services but maybe i looked too happy or he smelled like booze, because he didnt get custody...
