    Gateway Destruction

    Posted 5/16/2012 12:54:00 PM

    In ancient times, hundreds of years before the
    dawn of history.
    There lived a strange race of people...the Druids.
    No one knows who they were, or what they were doing...
    but their legacy remains...
    hewn into the living rock of Stonehenge...

    Stonehenge, where the demons dwell
    Where the banshees live and they do live well
    Stonehenge
    Where a man is a man and the children dance to
    the pipes of pan

    And you my love, won't you take my hand
    We'll go back in time to that mystic land
    Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
    I will take you there
    I will show you how

     

    In the night, it is my understadning that the Druids built this for me (see picture).
    It is called the Gateway to Mandyville.

    Sadly, like the StoneHenge of Spinal Tap, it is poorly constructed.

    Corus Feeds Kids

    Posted 5/16/2012 11:24:00 AM

    This is the real deal.

    There are hungry kids right here in this community, and we wanna raise money to help them.
    Each and every dollar donated will go to the Cambridge Self Help Food Bank to purchase child-friendly foods.

    41% of kids under 18 use Food Banks in Canada. Here, in our own country.
    37.5% of kids under 18 use the Food Banks here in Ontario.

    That's just too many.

    So, tomorrow we're asking for donations of money. Dollar bills.
    Why money and not food? Because the Food Bank has buying power that you and I do not have. They can turn a $1 dollar donation into the equivalent of $5-$8, which increases the stock on their shelves by 500-800%. That's a lot of food.

    Any money you can spare will go a long way. Please help us if you can.

    Van Halen Commits Grave Error

    Posted 5/4/2012 11:25:00 AM

    My facebook friends are all turning into babies and puppies.

    Albums once full of drunken embarrassment have now turned into tiny humans and little dogs.

    It's a damned shame. An epidemic. ...and it goes all the way to the top.

    *sigh*

    Even Van Halen has gone to the dogs.
    David Lee Roth has been showing video of his herding Sheepdogs in concert, and just this morning I discovered that Eddie Van Halen has created an entire Facebook profile for his Pomeranian named Kody.

    Pomeranian! Not even a REAL dog. And on the facebook page Eddie says all kind of fruity crap like, "here's a pic of me and Daddy. Me loves givin' Daddy kisses" -- and Eddie is "Daddy."
    Eddie Van Halen talks in third person, pretending that he is a small, girly dog.

    F@*king Hell.

    It's just gross.

    See for yourself here.

    Unsung Member of the 27 Club

    Posted 5/3/2012 10:03:00 AM

    On this day in 1972 Les Harvey joined the 27 Club in a very public way.

    Lemme give you a quick background: Les Harvey was a guitarist with Stone the Crows, a band that could have been one of the biggest British bands of the '70s.

    They had powerhouse blues vocalist Maggie Bell, regarded by many as an equal of Janis Joplin.
    They had a manager with more than a few connections in the business (a certain Mr. Peter Grant, who also managed Led Zeppelin), and they had one of the finest young guitarists on the blues and rock scene, Les Harvey, younger brother of Scottish rock legend Alex Harvey... but their fame was cut short one fateful night.

    Twenty-seven-year-old Les Harvey was tuning up on stage at The Top Rank Ballroom in Swansea, Wales when he grabbed hold of a poorly grounded microphone. In front of over 1000 fans, ...



    Neil Young Brings Relief

    Posted 5/2/2012 11:41:00 AM

    The truth is that when I read that Neil Young and Crazy Horse were teaming up to cover American Folk songs, I thought it was gonna be lame.

    Typically I really love uncle Neil, but an album full of campfire songs... I had reservations.

    I heard the first album cut today, and I am so happy to say that it brought me relief.

    It doesn't suck.

    Could I listen to this album on repeat? F*ck no.

    But it's pretty cool for what it is.
