More Korn

Thought I’d pass this link along, it’s Korns’ show in St. Petersberg on Feb. 7th. Really good quality avis. Brought to you by Kornspace.com and kornweb.ru

I’m really impressed with Ray, he’s a phenomenal drummer.

Snow day

A winter storm came in this morning and as such, I have taken a snow day. We’re up to at least 6″ right now and the roads aren’t as bad as I thought they would be. I knew I could get to work, but getting home was more of my concern. It’s supposed to turn into freezing rain so we may be in store for a solid layer of ice. Tomorrow morning could be rough.

Munky returns to the Tour!

Munky recently posted a message on myspace that he is rejoining Korn’s ongoing European tour. Good news for everyone! Hopefully Munkys’ dad is alright and Munk can rock out worry free.

Now it’ll be closer to Korn on stage than the worlds best Korn coverband.

Nip/Tuck season finale

ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhh shit! Last nights episode was INTENSE. Matt is in a heap of a mess with his step sister, he can’t get a normal relationship to save his life. Christian hooks up with an old fling (his new daughters mother) and she ain’t got no legs. Plus he gets into a car accident with Annie. Eden shoots Julia and her ass goes into a coma, then wakes up with amnesia (holy shit who let them do the oldest TV cliche on the planet). And finally, Colleen goes all the way over the edge and stabs the shit out of Sean. Just insane. Turns out they are calling this the full season 5 as the writers strike cut off the last 8 episodes. DVD hits in May so they’ll call the last 8 ordered episodes as Season 6 (maybe add 6 more episodes to give a full season to end the series?)

Odds are we are done with Nip/Tuck until 2009! At least I have Dirt and The Riches to look forward to.

Because everyone one the planet needs to see this

Despite the writers strike, Conan has continued to kick ass. As seen by the proof above. Now the writers strike is over (thank god) the load will be taken off Conan and TV can start to get back into the swing of things. 6-8 weeks is the window we’re looking at here, 8 weeks being the most likely. This season is all screwed up so it’s a bit of a wash, a few shows are going to end up getting 6 more episodes.

I’ve started watching the new show Breaking Bad and AMC, and it’s fantastic. Stars the dad from Malcom in the Middle who plays a high school chem teacher who turns to making meth to make ends meet after finds out he has terminal lung cancer. It’s a tiny bit like Weeds, but different enough to set itself apart. Fantastic acting and writing from top to bottom.

Nip/Tuck has been fucking phenominal for the past few weeks. No real way around it. Last nights episode was killer, the final episode filmed is next week. Looks like they timed it just right, I’m hoping we get the remaining 8 episodes that were ordered last year.

All of this brought to you by the wonders of DVR. Turns TV into DVD, worth every cent.

More gadgets that rule

Got a DVR this week from cablevision just in time for Lost to come back to the airwaves. It’s a much better box than we had, the SD channels look a lot better. It also has an HDMI and optical audio out port so I ordered a new optical cable from monoprice (4 bucks shipped! Eat a bag of dicks Monster). Since there is only 1 HDMI port on the tv, I’m going to switch the HDMI from the DVD player to the cablebox, put the DVD player on Component and add the optical to the cablebox. All audio sources will then have high quality connections. Hope I don’t have to change anything on the reciever for the new optical because I can’t find the stupid instruction manual.
