Anyways, that happened. Have a great Thursday, everyone!

3. That was the tour that had the remastered Mr. Bones Sacrifice EP, some of which were signed, & they still had leftover copies of Head Trauma, so I grabbed 1 of each. Didn't get a signed copy, but me & the girl I went with decided to listen to Sacrifice on the way back & we just weren't into it 🤣

When he did, 1Ton scooped it up, opened it, and he & UnderRated signed it for me. Super cool moment for a new fan.

2. Potluck were awesome, so after the show, I beelined to their merch table and grabbed a shirt & a copy of each album they had taped to the table. The guy pointed out that the newest one (Dank Alumni Experience) was sold out. 1Ton overheard & told the guy to just take the copy that was taped down.

Notable things for me:

1. KFV was solid, but everyone around me hated his set, which made me hate it, but there was a specific song that was stuck in my head for weeks after that and I eventually caved and bought his album online. (The song in question was "Too Late To Pray", btw)

They were joined by Kung Fu Vampire (who was practically unknown in the scene at the time and it was his first tour with a Psychopathic artist) and Potluck, who joined after Blaze opted out of the tour to continue working on Gang Rags.

FB reminded me that I first saw Twiztid in concert 16 years ago today for their Slaughterhouse tour in Pittsburgh at Mr. Smalls.

Don't mind me, I just woke up from a dream that had me in a familiar situation living at home with my parents and now that's all I'm thinking about. I promise I won't jump into traffic today.

I just had the past 2 days off, and I'm sitting here anxious about starting a 6-day stretch tomorrow. I'm tired of just pushing through it.

WWE Smackdown vs. RAW

4 groups were introduced to me from this game: Styles Of Beyond, Breaking Benjamin, Zebrahead, & Swollen Members. I followed up with actually buying CD's from those bands over a long period of time, but "Firefly", "Alone", "Superstars" & "Bottom Line" are iconic in this game.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2

Just combining the 2 OG's with the remake is a fair way to justify it. "Superman" is one of the most iconic songs in the entire franchise, I first heard of RATM with "Guerilla Radio", "No Cigar" made a resurgence in my life a few years ago, and "Out With The Old" FUCKS.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles

I've probably played this game more than any other in my entire life. Each level's music matched the tone of the level, and the changes from Act 1 to Act 2 were awesome. To this day, I will randomly start beatboxing to the Carnival Night beat. Ice Cap & Lava Reef are PEAK.

Wanna do something fun here, maybe something that'll make my use of this app more consistent.

Thinking of going over video games that had soundtracks that stuck with me, be it instrumental music or licensed soundtracks.

It would be fun to look back on what's been important to me musically.

Too old and have to work. I'd also probably bust my fucking ass if I tried. My board is in my trunk though...

I miss when I was younger and I used to ride my skateboard around town. I couldn't do tricks or anything. I could ollie, that's it. And not even on command, I had to really THINK about it, so going from sidewalk to street didn't happen. But I would just ride around and have fun. Can't these days.

Having a brain that gets dopamine through collecting things is a VERY bad thing. Between CD's and Magic The Gathering, it's such a slippery slope that I have to manage really fucking carefully these days.

No one cares, please go back to print-to-demand.

Fuck you, Vance. You're a traitor to this country. Your edgelord posts are just one example of how you and Jeff's best friend are sending this country to Hell in a hand basket.

Fuck your limited print model, plain and simple.

Okay, this is driving me nuts. There's a wrestling move that I used for my CAW in either WWE 2K18 or 2K19 that is essentially a cutter into a dragon sleeper. Aleister Black used it when he was on the indies. Did it have an actual name? Whether it was in the game or in real life? I need to know this.

I keep forgetting about this app 🤦

While I recognize that the big appeal of Tarkir is the dragons, I'm so fucking ready for Eshki, Temur's Roar as a Commander that just focuses on big stompy bullshit. Will I have some dragons in the deck? Probably. But they won't be the focus. #MTG

I want the new Temur precon.

Apparently, so does every other fucking person who plays Magic, meaning that, despite MSRP being a thing again, that one is being upcharged online. Fucking ridiculous.

OK then....

Trump lying to his supporters and still being loved is like when Billy Madison told the kids that they weren't cool unless they peed their pants.

HOLY SHIT! #PokemonTCGPocket

How dare you promote anything other than working yourself to death...

I always look forward to Twiztid showing up in Pittsburgh, because it means I get another opportunity to take a cool photo with them 🤘

Kendrick was the highlight of tonight. That performance was amazing.

Oh, and congrats to the Eagles, I guess.

Can't wait for Jurassic World Rebirth. The trailer already has me hype.
