So its the day after, my legs are sore, I’m tired, and my ears are ringing. This can only mean my return to Lalapalooza. Like last time, although nothing could ever top that one, it was a ton of fun. As usual Swifty came in as well as Scotty’s bro James. One thing is [...]

After almost 10 years since I last saw them, finally was able to catch Nine Inch Nails in concert again. My ears are still ringing..what?

A wise green little Jedi Master once told me:
If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will.
I must…not…give..in…ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!! I have failed. These cravings were overpowering…I was seduced by the new Ipod. I felt guilty, shameful…reckless with a credit card. Once I played with it in [...]

Whoa…what a hangover today. I better write this down before I forget what I experienced. Well, my first ever Lollapalooza was one hell of a ride thanks to Swifty and his connections on the inside. Lucky for us he knows someone who knows someone who knows someone else in Billy Idols band who got us [...]
