A Metal Moment
Metallica - Creeping Death (Moscow 1991 - 600,000 people). Nothing rocks more than this song.
My New Favourite Song
"Be My Husband", Nina Simone version. Couldn't find the studio version on youtube, but this is good enough. You know your fucking good when all you need to make an unbelievable song is a few weak handclaps and your AMAZING voice.

This page wouldn't be complete...
without some evidence of Heath Ledger's finest work. The Joker in action. Deserves every award he can get for this performance. For anyone who thinks his work was over-hyped because of his death, you are a fool. Heath completely transformed himself into this character, from the way he moves and thinks, down to even the way he walks. True dedication deserves true recognition...and an Oscar for best supporting actor is the least he can be given.
Amazing Video
First Post of 2009 - This video is amazing, so just watch. You may think it's a bit long, but what happens in that 8 minutes i doubt will ever be captured on film again. Enough, just Watch !!!

FOSM
Josh Sayer, one of my brother's best friends, passed away in his sleep last night. I believe he had recently turned 18 years old.
I Just cannot believe something like this happened. The fact it happened just before christmas. The fact that neither his friends or his poor family didn't get the chance to say goodbye, and will not get the chance to see him grow up.
I never got to meet Josh, only briefly talked to him on Xbox live, but my brother talked about him all the time, and from what he said about him i could tell he was a great person and a great friend.
This really puts what pathetic little "problems" that i, and countless other people THINK they have, into perspective. When people get upset that a few things don't go their way, imagine how 2 parents feel now that they will never get to kiss, hug or even see their son again. It really brings home how sellfish and self-centred i am, knowing that life can end just like that.
R.I.P Josh Sayer, FOSM, JSMTN - my prayers are with you and your family & friends.

Hallelujah - how it is supposed to sound
Of all the artists to cover Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, Jeff Buckley's version is head and shoulders above the rest.

Alchohol + Sugary Sweets = Treats
I am so making some Skittles Vodka when i get home. A better tasting rainbow, one can only assume.

Club 33
This is the elevator, hidden in Disneyland, that goes up to Club 33. A gold membership is around $10,000. Want one ? Well there's a 14 YEAR WAITING LIST. Insane.

Christmas
Is the best time of the year. I LOVE it. But this year i have a feeling it's going to be different. And not good different either.

Band of Brothers
One of the best TV shows ever. I can think of another programme on a scale as large as this. Damien Lewis is Bad-ass.

Hardcore Drive-by
Fucking ridiculous. I love how the strategically placed 'bystanders' jump into action out of nowhere.
Cannot Believe It

Adam Lazzara of Taking Back Sunday
Covering The Killers 'when you were young'. Beautiful. Sorry it's a bit quiet. Reminds me, should really finish the cover me and Rob did of this song.

Music
Original version of RoboCop, by Kanye West. Better than the album version in my opinion. I don't know why Daft Punk are in that picture, but it looks cool.
808's & Heartbreak
The alternative cover by KAWS. This album is incredible. Different, but incredible. Bit of a shame that RoboCop has been re-done, complete with annoying Strings in the verse. But the 2 songs either side of it, Paraniod & Street Lights, are the best on the album. Ye's bringing 808's back. I love Autotune. And this album.

Remember the days when....
...She was pretty, talented and actually have something resembling a career ? Where is she now ? Oh yeah, off smoking loads of weed and pissing everyone off.
Effort
The Hong Kong store for Billionaire Boys Club/Ice Cream, Pharrell Williams' clothing & shoe company. The whole ice-cream-shop-but-with-shoes-not-ice-cream thing is incredible.
BAPE Pepsi can
Probably tastes 10x better than normal Pepsi. I know that's not "scientifically" possible - maybe your mind tricks you or something.
I'm re-discovering my love for BAPE today
Cue many BAPE related posts.
This is the BAPE store in Hong Kong. God i wish my floor was like that.

K.O.L
This band is amazing. Out of the 70-something bands i've been lucky enough to see live, their set at Reading 2007 may be the best i've seen. Now i think of it, i don't think i've heard a properly bad KOL song.
I really hope they don't become one of those bands who people start to hate because they become to big/popular (like fucking NME is starting to), because they deserve every bit of their success.
Guitars
Italia Guitars - Maranello Speedster, around £200. Saw this in the giant guitar shop in London last year and finally found out what it is.
Captain Fantastic
'Tis a good night. Matthew Upson of all people gets the first. Terry gets the winner = 2-1. Germany booed off by their own fans. Result.

Piccadilly Circus
I'll admit it looks better when your standing in front of it, seeing it with your own eyes. But it's no Times Square. Or seemingly any street in Tokyo.
Times Square (Pic 1)
"The crossroads of the world".......or something. I wanna go there. I say pic 1 because i will be putting up many more - i like the way it looks at night. The closest i have to this is Piccadilly Circus, 100 miles away.
