So i was on youtube the other night and i was listening to Pearl Jam. It was a pretty good night.
Before Pearl Jam got together, the drummer and 2 guitarists were in another band by the name of Mother Love Bone.
They broke up because the lead singer, Andy Wood, died of a heroin overdose the night before their major label debut.
Anyway, I was listening to pearl jam, and in the related video's section, they had a song by the name of "Chloe Dance/Crown of Thorns" I thought the name sounded odd, so i clicked on it.
The song was about 8 minutes, but since the song is cut in half, the beginning (Chloe Dancer) is a 2 minute piano piece with Andy singing about a girl. I thought that those 2 minutes were the most heart felt 2 minutes that have been recorded (in my opinion of course.)
Here is the link -----http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lH0gnwtSEGI
Please take a look at the song; at least the first few minutes

July
Right now, it's late June, and it still doesn't feel like summer. haha.
I think once july gets here it will be better because of the carnivals and the fourth of July.
I hope that this summer will be good. I get to see my friends perform at battle of the bands, so that will be fun.
Hopefully next year my band will be at battle of the bands. That would be pretty Bee- Aye.
The band and i are actually writing a demo to record and the recordings should be done sometime in August. I am going to be distributing the CD sometime around then at school and other places as well. I'm going to be making about 200 CDs with the songs on them. about 5 of our best songs that we are proud of and a few covers by our favorite bands.
That another thing i will be doing in July, recording the Demo and writing more material. I'm Probably going to make a new Youtube account for the band and put up videos of recording, practicing and other crazy stuff.
I'll post more information about it in a later post.
Happy Summer.

BAZEEK
Okay. So i saw a movie the other day, and I was pretty impressed. It was happy, sad, intense, and amazing.
The movie: TOY STORY 3.
Iv'e been waiting eleven years to see another toy story movie. I didn't like the second one too much, but the third one, was intense. I don't want to give anything away, but i pretty much cried after the movie. The fact that andy is going to college just gets me, like, really. Is that sad? An animated movie gets me worked up? Haha. Well, i don't care. Pixar movies are the best animated movies ever.
I wanted this to be a longer post, and it's pretty disappointing that this is the best i can do.
Haha
-waffles

Manifest Infinity
I bought this book from borders a while ago. I started reading it and i got into it, but i got distracted one day and never found it again, but then I looked under my bed and I found it. So i was pretty happy about that. The book is called "A History of Western Philosophy."
At Hersey, my sophomore year, I had a teacher that always talked about Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and "How do we know what we know?" His name was Mr. Hammerl. Mr Hammerl always spent 40 minutes just talking to us about random stuff, to exercise our brains and to think outside of the box. Everything he said always made me think and i always got drawn in. I always looked forward to that class everyday, and luckily, It was the last class of the day.
I will always remember that class, because that was the only class that I remember being really really interested in.
Meh?

Meh - What does this mean? I honestly don't know, and I think that is the answer.
I think that the word "Meh" itself means nothing. I believe the meaning behind it comes from the way you say the word.
If I say "Meh," that could be me saying "ME." for example, "She stole meh quarter" and "You talkin' to meh?" It is another way to ad some personality to your typing. I think that you need to use your skills with Context Clues in order to understand.
In most cases, in my experience, the word "Meh" mostly has to do with boredom, or the person or people that you ask don't feel like talking,. So when I ask somebody online, Or in person, and ask "Hey, how are you?"
Their response, "Meh" Usually i would ask them "What is wrong?" and go on from there. I use the word "Meh" On occasion, and when i say it, it usually means I am at a loss for words. If i am having a weird day and I am just in a weird mood, i would say it was a "Meh" day.
Well, what i am trying to get at is; If you are confused by the word Meh, That is because it is a weird word with many different random meanings
I found this picture.. Made me laugh.

Them Crooked Vultures
Okay. So I am a big fan of Nirvana and Foo Fighters, and i heard about this new project that Dave Ghrol (Drummer of Nirvana Lead guitar and vocals for Foo Fighters) has been working on with John Paul Jones (Bassist of Led Zeppelin). It is called Them Crooked Vultures.
The have a very original sound that doesn't sound like anything that I have ever heard before. Dave Ghrol is playing drums for them, and that would be the first time that he would play drums on a record since Nirvana, so I think that's a pretty big deal. I don't remember who the other two in this band project were, but the band as a whole sounds very good.
The only question I have is what will happen with Foo Fighters? I love that band. Dave Ghrol's voice is awesome with the band and I don't think he should give up a band that he started from the ground up. I totally support Dave Ghrol and his decisions with music; because if he wasn't smart, he wouldn't have been a part of not one, but TWO great bands that have made a footprint in the rock world. Nirvana and Foo Fighters. Maybe Them Crooked Vultures will be added to that list soon as well!!
Much Love, More Syrup,
Mr. Waffles
