I'm proud to introduce my 26th blog

Hey fellow gamers! I trust that everyone is having an awesome summer(Or fall/winter, wherever you live) like me:D Well, the pool party was a blast. Hamburgers, hot dogs, eegee's, friends, all while swimming to SLAYER! :twisted: We also had a cannonball contest, off course, I did't win, since I weigh about 140. My giant friend won, and I swear, about half the pool was emptied!:lol: Ah, it was great.

I've also been working with good ol' pop for some extra cash. In just one week, I made 90 bucks!:shock: He works on pools, and makes more money then you might think. By changing a pool filter(which takes a couple of hours) he can make 500 to 1000 bucks! I've been helping him change filters, and get twenty bucks per filter. I've also sold my cube and got 35 dollars worth of store credit. I plan to use the money to buy a DS lite. My old DS barely works anymore, and I figured that I could earn that money back quick, so it's no sweat. After that I plan to start saving for a 360 or a better amp for my axe. Argh, I hate decisions!:x

Well JPGalindo thought of a cool idea to start giving points to those who figure out the song quizes. So starting out now, everyone has no points(sorry Kat!:P) And here's another thing: if you know all the songs, aneswer only one to give other guys a chance. If nobody can guess it, then you can aneswer the rest of the songs, k? Here goes...

Slayer-"The gates of hell are open as you see, there's no price to pay, just follow me, I can take your lost soul from the grave, Jesus knows your soul cannot be saved"

Metallica- "Die, by my hand, I creep across the land, killing first born man!"

Pantera-"One day we will all die, a cliched fact of life, Force fed To make us heed, Inbred from sponge to bleed" Kind off awkward lyrics but damn, this song is metal!

THE BEAST HAS SPOKEN! UP THE IRONS!:twisted:

No one is safe, when I close my eyes, I come to take your life...

      Just an awesome lyric from Megadeth's United Abominations!8) Which I finally got! w00t! It's amazing, just amazing. It blends old-school Megadeth with a more modern sound, kind off like on "The System Has Failed". It's also probably Megadeth's most political album yet. Very awesome, BUY IT IF YOU LIKE METAL! Or good music, for that matter. 9/10. Other albums I need are Ozzy's "Black Rain" and Rush's "Snakes and Arrows"

     In other news, I recently became completly hooked on my DS all over again. I've been playing several DS games, including New Super Mario Bros, Mario Cart, RE:DS, FFIII(Which I still haven't beat!:evil: ) and of course... Pokemon Diamond.  I'm also going to sell my gamecube and DS to get a DS Lite.:D

     I'm also having a pool party with some friends this Sunday to kick off Summer!8) They're alot of fun, especially in this absurd heat. Everyone's invited, so bring ur friends!:P

     Oh, and I keep forgeting to put this out(damn my forgetfulness!), but if you've got a Wii, here's my Wii code... it's 6495 8676 0003 0707.You can give me a shout anytime about anything. And my e-mail is beanburroman@yahoo.com, but u knew that already, right? No Spam please!:lol:

     It's quiz time! Katamari is on fire with these quizes, can anyone beat him!?

1. Metallica-"Dear Mother, Dear Father, You've clipped my wings before I learned to fly, Unspoiled, Unspoken, I've outgrown that ****ing lullaby! Same thing I've always heard from you, do as I say, not as I do!" One of my fav Metallica songs, btw.

2.Another fav of mine, this time from Dream Theater-"Straight is the path, Leading to your salvation; Slaying the weak, Ethnic Elimination!"

3.This an easy one from Rush-"He's got a problem with his poisons, but you know he'll find a cure; He's cleaning up his systems to keep his nature pure."

UP THE IRONS!!!:twisted:





In Soviet Russia, Blog posts you!

Hey guys! Yeah, my friends been making those stupid russian jokes all day, so they kind of got stuck in my head. No offence if your Russian:P
Well, I finally saw Spider-man 3. It was okay, not a bad movie, but definately dissapointing:?(No MAJOR spoilers ahead) Okay, so you think it's going to be awesome because Venom is in it, right? Wrong. Peter gets the suit, but for way to long. When Eddie finally gets the suit and becomes Venom, the movie is almost over. And there's no giant catacysmic battle between the two at the end (Though there is a cool battle at the end nonetheless). Which brings me to another thing. Eddie just seems to come out of no where and what's to kill Peter. The director doesn't do enough to draw you in, though there were some parts that were genuinely Emotional/Entertaining/Awesome, etc. Overall, I'd recommend it, just don't expect the hype to live up.
Oh, and guess, What? Megadeth's long anticipated United Abominations is OUT NOW!:shock: I NEED it! I already heard some songs from it when they played them live, and it's sounds AMAZING! I also downloaded songs off there website, so I can tell you it's great! So do yourself a favor and support Megadeth by buying this amazing CD!8)
Alright, time for the dreaded song quiz!:twisted:
1. Metallica's depressing ballad... "Life it seems will fade away... Drifting further everyday... Getting lost within myself... Nothing matters, no one else..."
2.To scelabrate Megadeth's release, hears one from them-"Fools like me, who cross the sea, And come to foriegn lands; Ask the Sheep, for their beliefs, do you kill on god's command?"
3.One more, because I am listening to this song by Maiden-"They fire off many shots and many parting blows, Their actions beyond reasoning, only god will know..."
UP THE IRONS!8)

I'm back in black!

YEAH! Summer is finally here and that means lots of swimming, partying and Shredding!8) Oh, and I'm back here, of course;) Luckily it didn't take as long as I thought it would for Summer vacation to come. So, everyone take cover, because the Shred Master is here and ready to rock!:twisted:

On the downside, I caught a cold or something, from my contagious creature of a sister. Pretty wierd, especially in Summer:?

Oh, and I beat Diamond.:D I'm still playing it, it's so awesome! Though I feel a little guilty for my PS2, I STILL haven't beat Okami or FFXII, though I'm really close in both games.:evil: I don't know what's taking me so long, I guess it's just because how massive both games are.

 If you knew the last blog's lyric was "paranoid", congrats, you passed the first trial:twisted: I'll name two lyrics per blog from seperate bands, so that way more likely you'll know one.

1. Slayer- "Close your eyes, look deep in your soul, step outside yourself and let your mind go..."

2. Judas Priest- "Up there in space, I'm looking down at you, my lasers trace, everything you do"

Oh, and if u know both of them, plz aneswer only one to give other guys a chance:D Well, I wanted to keep this blog short and sweet. Just wanted to mainly inform everyone that I'll be around. UP THE IRONS!8)

 

Not going to be around too much...

:cry::cry::cry: If you've read previous blog entries you know that high school is really starting to heat up with me. Why you may ask? I have finals coming up, and I'm getting flooded with homework, it's not even funny. What's worse, my grades are starting to slip, and I have to work overtime to get them up. Also, I'm being forced to shovel gravel for my yard, and I'm not even getting paid! WTF? I'm still half dead from yesterday... Anyways, I'll try to pop up every once in a while, but if I can't, please understand why. When summer vacation comes (in a few weeks) then I'll be back in black!8)

Well, today, me and my friend where screwing around in guitar class. He's real great with rythm, which is good because my specialty is lead. Well we were messing around and started creating the dumbest sounding songs, that make sence, but at the same time... well don't.:P We wrote a number of tunes, but my favorite, as he randomly named it "fire alarm on the 3rd floor" like I said, random. Were going to record them on his computer, and burn them to a CD. Who knows, if we can get a record deal, this thing may go double-platinum!:P

Well, I thought of something different instead of the whole "c lassic song/album thing". I'll name a song lyric and the artist, and you guys try to guess it. I'll post the aneswer in the following blog. If you guys like the idea, then I'll keep it. if not, then I'll go back to the c lassic album/song thing.:)

 I'll start with an easy one Today's is from none other then Sabbath... "Finished with my woman because she couldn't help me with my mind" The answer in the next blog!

Remember, I won't be too active for a few weeks, but I'll be back. So, farewell, but not goodbye and... UP THE IRONS!8):twisted:

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii............

Hey everyone, miss me?:P I know I haven''t been around lately, and I apologize. I've had alot of school work lately(since the year is almost over:D) and haven't had access to a computer in some time. So I'll try to check in regularly, but if I can't u know why:(

 Anyways, I got... Pokemon Diamond! w00t:D It's alot of fun, though, I'm barely into it(I have one badge). Which brings me to a question. How many people still like the pokemon games? The shows and cards may have been stupid, but I still hold the games close to my heart. It's like we've been together forever...:cry: Sorry, I just couldn't hold back the tears of joy!

 Well, during the weekend, I went to some game night thing with my friend at his school. It's was kind of fun, I played mainly guitar hero II, but I managed to ooh and ahh some people with my Wii. It would've almost been a blast, but my horny friend kept dicthing me for some chick, who isn't even that good-looking.:roll: And I would've been fine with that... If I knew the people there. But since it was at his school, I barely knew anyone, so I felt like I was in some foriegn land. Oh, and I only got a 4 out of 5 on "the trooper"... guess I'm not a true Maiden Fan:cry:

Today's song is "Walk" by Pantera. This has got to be one off the most catchest songs ever written! R.I.P. Dimebag...

Today's album is "Holy Diver" This is a "Holy" gem that should be in every music lover's collection. What an amazing voice! Oh and if you knew that Dio was the one who made the\m/ horns popular, congratulations, you get a Plasma Screen!!!!:shock:

UP THE... Wait. I'm still not worthy!:? Uh... ROCK ON!!! Yeah, that works.

The Aftermath of the concert...

WOW.:shock: That's all I can say. That was the most mind-blowing experience I've ever had. I'll break down the bands, what they played, etc.:D

Machine head- These guys were pretty good, not that bad, but they only played about 5 songs. I'm fairly new to them, so I only reconized about 2 songs. They played...

-Now I lay Thee Down- This song was pretty cool.

-Aesthetics Of Hate-This was the highlight of their show.

Next was insane: None other then Megadeth. When Dave Mustaine showed up, I yelled, "YOUR ****ING AWESOME DAVE!!!" as loud as I could! He then looked at me and smiled. I thought I was going to go into shock! At the end, he threw a crapload of picks and his wristbands into the moshpit. Too bad I wasn't there:( Though I was still in the third row) They played a medly of my favorite 'Deth tunes, including...

Sleepwalker-The first song was also a new one from united abominations.

Take No Prisoners-Awesome, just awesome.

Kick the Chair

Tornado of Souls- My favorite Megadeth song.

Hangar 18

Washington is Next-Another new one.

Symphony of Destruction-KICK ASS!

Peace Sells- The whole crowd was shouting "Peace sells, but whose buying?!" including me when the song kicked in!

Holy Wars/The Punishment Due- Dave described this as his theme song! I was banging my head like crazy to this one!

Finally, the big guys... Black Sabbath, in the flesh. The stage was set up like some creepy church, with angels and demons and everything.Ronnie James Dio... I'm surprised such a little man has such an incredable voice! Tonni Iommi broke out in a mind-blowing solo, which I captured on my crappy cell phone video recorder! Vinny also did a drum solo, which was awesome. And Geezer was just... Geezer. No bass solo, unforturnately. I didn't reconize everything, but they did play stuff from Heaven and Hell, Mob Rules and Dehumanizer(Which I didn't reconize at all, because I didn't hear that record) I'll briefly list them...

Children of the Sea

Lady Evil

The Mob Rules

Voodoo

Sign Of The Southern Cross

Wishing Well

Heaven and Hell-THE best one. So much energy played with this one!

And the second best one...Neon Knights. My personal fav. song by sabbath.

That was a night to remember. I also bought a cool Megadeth tee! Too bad I couldn't get it signed:? But still the concert was so cool, I was so dissapointed when it was over... At least I got some pics and videos to remember that awesome night!

Wow, my fingers hurt! Here's a little quiz... who made the \m/ gesture popular? the answer in the next blog!

Song and Album of the day... Uh, everything listed above! Sorry, I'm a lazy bum:P

UP THE IRONS!:twisted:

 

 

It's time...

Well, almost. For what, you say? Where have you been all this time!? Well if you don't know, tomorrows the day I go to the Heaven and Hell tour! I've been counting down the days, and finally, it's almost time!:D Of course I'll post a blog how it was later!
Well, I just now saw the gameplay footage from Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles... And I must say, I'm a little dissapointed. It's just like a rail shooter! I don't mind an RE FPS(as long as it's not another Survivor), but not being able to move, explore and solve puzzles at your will is not what Resident Evil is about. At least it covers the whole RE storyline, which is a good thing because I regretfully missed out on RE2 and 3. I'll end up buying buying it, weither it's crap or a masterpiece.
Today's song is... Angel of Death by Slayer. WARNING! Do not listen to slayer if you are easily offended! Moving on, this is a sick tune! With very tight and evil riffs, pounding drums, and disturbing lyrics(about the human experiments performed in Aucshwitz during the Holocaust) This is an awesome song. My only complaint about Slayer is there sloppy solos. Other then that, great band.
Today's album is... Among the Living by Anthrax. This is an amazing album, is you can ignore the awkward lyrics, and simplistic riffs. But what Anthrax lacks in creative riff writing, they make up with a very tight and thrashy drummer, Charlie Benante. He's amazing! And so is this album. Lots of good stuff here.
Well that's about it... Rock on fellow gamers! UP THE IRONS!

A New Blog! Hurray...

What's up, guys? Sry I haven't been around lately, I've been getting ready for the big day... If I missed anything,(Which I probably did) just fill me in and I'll head towards ur blog:D

Well, I've been filling up my brand new Ipod... I cramed it with All my Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Rush, and the like. A friend also gave me RE Apocalypse(which I haven't seen) And it's a pretty sweet movie, but maybe nothing more. And I still have 27 gigs after all that!:shock: I love this thing.

Also recently, my little sister has picked up the guitar. She thinks shes so special because she can play random strings without freting them. It's annoying! She gives guitar players a bad rep:?

And todays song of the day is...

Pull Me Under by Dream Theater. This band is one off the best bands ever put on planet Earth, And I just recently got into them. What took me so long:P

Todays album is... Megadeth's Peace Sells... But Whos Buying? This was the album that proved to Metallica and the rest of the World that Megadeth is a band to be reckoned with!

THE BEAST HAS SPOKEN! UP THE IRONS!:twisted:

P.S. Sorry the blog was kinda short.

New Ipod!

Finally! I just ordered a refurbished 30 gig Ipod via Amazon! I saved 50 bucks(bought it for 200$) and it should be coming soon...:D
Anyways, I just wanted to say that... To make this blog not completly pointless, Why not tell about yourself? You can say anything...age, interests, crap that annoys you, whtever. Let me tell a little about myself:)...
Well, I'm 16, (I'm not gonna tell you my name because I HATE it) I have black hair and brown eyes, and I'm tall(I assuming that because of the millions of comments about me being tall every day:roll:)I've been playing guitar for almost 3 years8), I play mostly lead stuff, but I can play rythem too. I love jamming with my best friend, and we plan to sart a band... once we find a singer and bassist!:evil: I also love swimming, I can't wait for summer to come!;) And finally, I hate ignorant fanboys, I'm literally surronded by them:? Well, that's me. I hope it solved one of the many mysteries of the universe:P
And let's not forget the song/album day! 
Today's song of the day is... Tom Sawyer by Rush. I'm I HUGE Rush fan, so I just couln't resist!:P These guys are amazing. I trust that everyone has heard this song(And if you haven't you should be ashamed!:P)
Todays album is... Judas Priest's Screaming for Vengeance. This album is jam-packed with killer riffs, blistering solos(courtasy of Glenn and K.K.!) and overall quailty musicianship. Awesome album. Definiately pick it up if you haven't. I don't think you'll be dissapointed!8)
Well, sorry if this blog was boring/uniteresting, I was in the mood to work out my fingers from typeing. Thanks for reading!UP THE IRONS!:twisted:
