its funny, i used to be a real big fan of metal, particularly industrial, then mainstream music kind of got crappy and i paid less attention to all of modern music and as i eventually turned more and more into a hippie i got into old pschadelic rock and progressive rock, which are my current favorites and probebly always will be because thats just who i am, but lately ive been going to alot concerts of local bands here in las vegas, including a battle of the fans which i just came back from about an hour ago or so (as of the time im writing this, obviously) and damn! theres some kick @$$ and very original bands here! probebly the best ive heard is a band called dreamscar, which sounds kind of like a mix between evanesence and slipknot, if they were to be an industrial-like band and play about 10x as heavier, i mean they were just f****** epic, there was a HUGE mosh pit that was just packed, in which i probebly dealt and recieved an equal amount of @$$-kickery, another great band from here is one i went to a concert of about 2 or 3 weeks ago called inn full affect, which was kind of like pink floyd and tool mixed together and played at a faster pace, theyre really trippy and creative, then theres a band called the advertisers, which are like the earliest form of punk, mixed with some kind-of ska, and hard and progessive and psychadelic rock, they were probebly my favorite one i heard tonight, so i guess that reminds me, along with inn full affect, that im a truly just a hippie haha, but damn, whenever i hear some really great metal, i cant help it, that s*** just gets to me ...so, anyway, i was just bored and thought id start a blog
