TSO Was Awesome

So it is hard to really describe a Trans Siberian Orchestra concert if you you don't know their music. Think of classical music and Christmas music played as rock and roll with all most Broadway Musical type signing and that might be what it is like. Then of course there is how the concert has its first part where there is a a person who tells the story as the play music. Then after that part is over they play more music. Here is their myspace page . Yes I love their music but it is so much more then the music they also have a pretty cool light and pyro show. The thing about the lights isn't just they they do a lot of lighting and laser things but that the metal stuff the lights are in move as part of the show and are lite up to so it isn't only the stag, then sometimes the lights on on the fans as well. Next show starts at 8pm so doubt you can make it if you aren't going all ready but I'm sure it would be worth it to travel. You have to give props to the road crew I guess they where someplace in Canada yesterday and broke everything down and got it all here in time. After the night show they have a lot of work to do, not to mention the HSBC arena crew has to get things set up because at 11am there is a Bandits Open Practice (I plan to be there). As much as I like watching things at the arena if it wasn't for the stage crews and who ever sets up and changes the arena over we wouldn't see much and they get none of the glory.

Even though you aren't supposed to take pictures here are a few from the show. I have way to many to post them all so I'll guess at what ones look the best from the small size.

In terms of my favorite song that is a tough question that song that is in Italian I think that is real dramatic you here a lot of places is up there then there is that killer version of Flight of the bubble bee. I would suggest going it is worth the money if that is your kind of music. Well Sunday I assuming I wake up on time it is off to the Bandits open practice.

Punisher War Zone

I will admit that I don't know how to write a movie review with out giving away any of the plot to a movie or any details. When I walked in I thought that this was the 3rd Punisher movie made that retells the same story. That isn't completely true it is the 3rd movie and has nothing to do with the previous ones. The 1st movie was good. I say that because at the time it was before the comic movie boom and was pretty violent. I know some people think the 2nd one kinda sucked. I liked that i forget what wrestler was in it, might Have Been Kevin Nash, I think it was cause I called him "Big Daddy Dead". I thought that one was a cool story and had great action and was twisted and had great music and was pretty good, I think that one was a little bit better then this new one. Part of that is because I didn't know enough about this new one and the way it started out they didn't give any back story really. I still think it was a pretty bad ass movie with Mob Guys and gangs and lots of carnage and violence and it had a good story to it also. Did I mention some great music, I can't believe people would walk out with Rob Zombie playing on the credits what is wrong with people. If this is your kind of movie you will like it, if you like the Punisher you will like it I guess I would give it 3 stars.

What I wish I was doing

Well yes there is something that I was planning on doing tonight but do to something I ate or my crazy insides I'm not doing it. Yes I would love to have to just turned 18 busty blond cheerleaders who just so happen to to be twins and be doing them, or two hot sexy Lantino sisters who look like the Telumundo women with the giant asses and huge tits and great face and long black hair, but then again so sexy lady who looks like Ziyi Zhang. But as nice as that would be that isn't what I was talking about. I wanted to go see the new Warren Miller movie at Rockwell Hall called Children of Winter. The problem was that something didn't agree with me, don't know if there is too much grease in my system or too many veggies not really sure. But what I do know is that the desire to dumb came out of nowhere. I'm not saying it would happen again but that is a chance I didn't feel like taking. It is to bad because if you have never seen a Warren Miller movie they are very good. They have skiing and snowboarding and sometimes some other sports and they travel all over the world and have good music in his movies. Plus then you have the event itself. They are good if you partake in the sport cause you get discounts on skiing and you can win trips and you get a free magazine for like maybe 6 months they are a lot of fun. Oh well I'll go home and watch something I taped until LA ink comes on.

Cheech and Chong Roasted

So somewhere I saw an add for Cheech and Chong Roasted. Last night it was on TBS. The roasts are on Comedy Central most of the time. Not sure why or how TBS got this. If there is anyone who doesn't know what a roast is (not that thing in the oven either). Someone famous is honored. There are a bunch of people up on a stage and each one of them talks about the person being honored but they rip into them, and often (most of the time) they also rip into the other people on stage. Some of the put downs are brutal. Brad Garrett was the host last night and he ripped into some people and got ripped into himself pretty good. I can't remember the lines so I won't " " them. But there was stuff about how he won 3 emmeys on Every body loves Raymond but for being on Till Death they want them all back. Tom Arnold gave it and got it pretty good. Heraldo Rivera was kinda dull, but that isn't his thing. Raphlie mae was good. Penn & Teller where interesting. Greg Geraldo was interesting. The guy who played the forgien kid on that 70's show was pretty good. I was doing a lot of laughing it was pretty funny. I forgot there was this one part where some people on video, the way the two where put together was pretty funny. Someone said Brad Garrett was one "N Word" away from being Micheal Richards. Part of what they where talking about is that he brought some black guy on with a sign that said Al Sharpton. The story went that he was supposed to come and couldn't or changed his mind so he found some guy at like a book store. All the guy did was make faces. Then at the end Cheech and Chong had there turn. I thought it was pretty funny and from what I understand what got the roast to happen is that They have reunited. I don't know if it will be repeated (like how they do on comedy central) but if you do get a chance to see it you might find it pretty funny. I will admit that I have never seen most of there stuff together I have only seen the one in "Nash Bridges" and the other one in "That 70's show" but still found the roast to be a great hour spent.

5th post of the day

I will admit that It is weird the sabres game is about to start and assuming on one posts before me this will only be the 5th one of today. Isn't the world's largest disco Tonight or something I'm sure there is stuff going on. December is going to be pretty Busy. Next weekend I want to go see Warren Millers Children of winter it is at Rockwell hall at Buff State. Then TSO is on Saturday and then Bandits open Practice on Sunday, guess I'll miss some football. This sounds odd but it was Nice to work today, and the day went buy quick.. I also think some movie I want to see comes out on Friday as well, I need to look into that.

The Boy in the Striped Panjamas........

So yesterday was an interesting thanksgiving. Not because it was great but because it was a change from the past. Every year it hasn't been turkey but the food was a little different this year but I tried it and liked some of it. I got to watch part of all 3 football games so that was cool. Then I went to see "The boy in the striped Pajamas". I will be the first to say I thought I would like it even though it isn't my kind of movie. I will try not to give anything away that you wouldn't see in a ad for it. The movie takes place during WWII, so you all ready know it isn't some happy go lucky good ending type of movie. There is a son of a Nazi Officer (they never use the word Nazi in the movie by the way, and there is no war footage either but they show the symbols) when he gets a promotion he and the family moves. At this new house he has no friends and through exploring he finds a fence to a what he thinks is a farm (work camp) and makes friends with a boy his age. As being a boy he doesn't really get everything and he hears things at home and those things cause him to misunderstand. I see the movie to me shows how dangerous Hate and blame and propogagda is, and you see how the older sister learns this from the teacher and the younger kid who doesn't like history only adventure books doesn't get it. I'm sure I have all ready said to much. I did kinda see the end coming right before it happened but wasn't sure how it would end exactly but I won't ruin that part for anyone who wants to see it.

Happy Thanksgiving

Just wanted to say quickly that I hope everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving. Things have changed this year with my sis having her baby girl so she is going to the boy friends families place. I forget the exact plans but I know eating and trying to see some football and going to see "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" is part of the plan. I admit it doesn't look like my kind of movie but I want to see it, and I hope I like it. Then I get to go work on Saturday, I pretty much have to though, 3 days of work means we have to make up 2 days of work, well sort of. The one thing that I wonder about thanksgiving is how did the night before become a big drinking Holiday. One would think that with getting stuff togather people wouldn't want to wake up feeling like shit. Hope everyone that goes out has a great time I'll be inside watching something, oh yeah bones and Sons of Anarachy.

Christmas is a month away

It is hard to believe that Christmas is only a month away but today is the 25th so that is true. Yes I have done some shopping but still have more to do. I may go out on "Black Friday" but I doubt early. Yes now that people have less money it is a good time to find "the true meaning of Christmas" or what ever holiday you celebrate (aka 3 kings day). That being said be go out and spend money and help out this economy and hey why not give to charity also. Maybe if you spend less then some of the money you would have spent can get some kid who needs it a toy. I all ways mean to give and don't like I should maybe, i'll give like I should this year. Also don't forget you can get your self something to. Come on lets jump start this economy. Oh yeah use cash or debit and not credit, and have a good time and don't let it stress you out.

24 Rollins Colbert

So yesterday I watched 24 Redemption. I thought it was pretty good. I will admit I thought there was going to be more action. The action was good, don't get me wrong. I think that there was a lot of story to be told to set up the new season. At the end of the show the preview for the new season in January (11th &12th I think) looks pretty good. I'm glad I watched it.

I do like documentaries . Of course if it like it is based on the topic and how it is done. You can have a great subject but if the narrator is boarring then it can kill the movie. Of course I'm a fan of lots of the HBO ones, oh yeah and then I have seen a bunch of great ones about sex, porn and sex in movies. The most recent one I watched was on IFC it was Henry Rollins in Northern Ireland . Part of the movie is him talking to people about what happened and getting their thoughts on it how the peace is now. It was pretty interesting and there where some things that are similar to the ocuppation of Iraq , and there where some interesting peoples views on that. Then there was also part of his show that he performed. One of the stories he told I had Heard before but the other stuff was good also. I wish there was a way to hear and see the complete show he did, and to see more of the interviews of people he talked to. There was also a little bit of history about What started the IRA.

Last night it was time to watch (before Sons of Anarchy that I missed last week) Christmas special 2, it was Steven Colbert. The basic idea is he in a lodge and he is trying to get to his studio to film his Christmas Special, but when he tries to leave there is a bear so he can't. He doesn't want to pay royaltes so he makes up he own Christmas songs. People drop by to see him like John Stewart and Tobe Keith. I thought some of it was pretty funny. There is this video Toby does about people trying to fight Christmas, I thought that part of great. Then I liked the part where there where 4 wise men and one was Willie Nelson and they do those long thing about weed and I thought that part was funny. Later little cop cars pull up on the manger and bust Willie he says it wasn't his he was holding it for the Donkey. They have a running missile toe joke and the only one to kiss him is this huge Bear that ate Elvis Costello and then it chases him. In the end Santa saves him. I'm not really a fan of his but thought some of it was pretty good.
