Sabres and friday
Category: sabres


If the above link works correctly (sometimes I have trouble with it) it will take you to my Sabres pictures on my webshots page. There is no way I'm going to post all of them here. Saturday I had a good time. Plus the sabres won. There was hot blond behind me and a Lady with nice boobs to my right. I wasn't trying to look but when play went to my left it was kinda tough not to see them. Even though the Sabres won I wish the Penguins would have let Crosby play. Friday the season starts and they are having that Party at the plaza before the game, I may go but guessing I'll just watch it on TV.

It seems that around this time of the year things get very busy and there are lots of things to do and lots of Shows returning to TV and then cool new shows to watch. With all the stuff going on I still have 3 more Hockey Games I'm going to. I wouldn't mind taking a road trip to go see a game somewhere but I doubt that is going to happen. But hopefully as I see more games I can give highlights of the pictures I take. Hopefully these ones where good ones to pick sometimes viewing them small it is hard to tell.

I read "aw, crap, it's hockey season again already??" in my e-mail and started laughing. I won't lie I wish it was still summer my self. But once summer ends it turns to hockey season very quickly. So that you know not to watch MSG the first game is Friday for the Sabres.
jenks - 10/02/07 20:33
aw, crap, it's hockey season again already??
metalpeter - 10/02/07 19:54
First of all Hockey is fun to watch on TV and glad it is hockey season again. That also means that soon that it will be Bandits season also. The Sabres had a great year last year and I thought where good enough to at least make it to the finals. But I don't think they played their best hockey. I also think they where Jinxed. Every one in Buffalo knew they where going to do great in the playoffs and thought this was the year they could win it all. That thought and arogence lead to the curse. People made up their own Stanly Cups and even had them on Buildings. The other thing is New Era had a countdown of how many wins they needed. Well what they forget is all you need is 3 loses and the other team wins and you are gone. I do believe that even if the jinx didn't work, that attitude sliped into the players heads. In any event what ever happens looking forward to the new season.

Ok now I'm going to defend the bills. Both last year and this year I knew the Bills really didn't have much of a chance unless Tom Brady was in a hospital bed. Same thing was true for who ever was in The Colts Division there was no one in those divisions who where even a threat to win the division (not including getting a set of bad injuries). So that means everyone else was really playing to be the wild card. I will hold off on saying that this new QB Edwards is good untill after next week. If he plays like he did this week when we play the cowboys in prime time then I say the Bills maybe have an outside chance of getting to the playoffs with this kid.
jason - 10/02/07 19:37
Oh yes. The Sabres are back. Maybe they can numb the pain caused by the Bills, Chelsea FC, and the U of Michigan.

MEGA Sabres
A few nights ago I went to see Megadeth and had a great time at the Town Ballroom it was a very crowded and packed show. I also liked the two opening bands "The Confession" and not sure of the exact name but something along the lines of "in this moment" my one problem was having trouble hearing some of her vocals. I did like that she wore a dress and head banged.

Tonight the sabres are playing the Penguins (right now I'm guessing) and then I'm going to the Saturday night game in Buffalo, that is there final preseason game I think. Yes I'll be yelling for the sabres but I like the penguins to and want to see if their uniforms look really any different. This year all the teams are going to new jerseys but I don't know if they will really effect the look of them or not.

That link goes to my sabres pictures or atleast it should, they won but I don't have enough time right now to put them up hopefully on monday, I had a great time and they won.

Music Wise Lemy of Motorhead is amazing. Yes he has a strange voice but after hearing a couple songs they do kick ass. Do anyone know if Grave Digger and Grave Diggers pronoucned grave Diggas are any relation.
tinypliny - 09/30/07 05:35
I guess I did mean the ones on the trees but unconsciously I was thinking of Alvin and the Chipmunks!

Yes, I know what you mean by the death metal voice-put off. I feel the same. However, I do like some other gravelly voices - Chris Boltendahl is one prime example. I adore their music! But then Grave Digger is not really death metal. They are old school power. Oh, and no gravel voice discussion is complete without Lemmy!

metalpeter - 09/29/07 13:33
I myself have never thought of his voice that way. But I did have a friend who hated Guns and Roses for kinda the same thing he couldn't stand Axle's voice. The point I'm trying to make is that a lead singers voice often is more important then the music. I myself have all ways liked it but now I can kinda picture Alvin, Simon and Theodore walking around with huge weapons of death in there hands. Unless you meant the real ones in trees. Speaking of that is why I can't really get into death metal. Some of the guitar is really amazing but then there is that growl singing style and it kinda kills it for me.
tinypliny - 09/28/07 20:10
I think the lead singer of Megadeth sounds like a demented chipmunk. I could never tolerate his voice.

Jackdaw and Dropkick
Category: music
In my previous post I mentioned that one of the things that made me reflect back to other recent events was the Jackdaw and dropkick murphey's show. At the time I hadn't downloaded my pictures yet. So I thought I would put them up here. Not sure how good they will be do to the distance and light but here they are.

Not sure how good or bad any of those pictures are but I had a good time other then getting crushed by the expanding pit. It was also fun to watch all the crowd surfing to.

I like the one where you snapped via a glass! :)

Carey's Bonfire or Saturday Part 2 kinda
Category: photos
I had a good time at (e:theecarey)'s bonfire Fiesta. I admit I didn't eat much and there where a bunch of people I didn't know and didn't say much but still had a good time. I will admit I didn't think I would make it there but I have to thank (e:mike) who had room in his car. So here are the pictures. Oh one other thing I wanted to add was last night I saw one of I think the coolest Family guys I've seen in a long time. It was there star wars episode. I think my favorite might have been at the end when Chris (voiced by Seth Green I believe) calls his dad out that Robot Chicken did a star wars show like 3 months ago and then Peter goes on to say something like it isn't a real network and that like only 10 people watch it when he lists the real networks fox isn't mentioned either. Oh yeah on a another side note the new season of Heroes starts tonight. Ok now on to the pictures.

In terms of the fire pictures it looks like most of them came out or will come out good. The thing is that if you use a flash and are able to make it bright enough to see the people good than that most of the time makes it bright so you can't really see the fire. The above pictures where in order but these fire pictures won't be.

When we first arrived we heard that later on the donkey would be braught out hey it was a mexican theme we thought we would get to see or maybe even partake in a donkey show but it turned out to be A pinata. After the pictures I got there was some fun had with a donkey head I can't wait to see how those pictures of I think (e:theecarey)'s camera but here are my pictures.

Those above should have been in order. Once the donkey got smashed opened it was determined that there was stuff still in there so it got kinda put back together and destroyed more. Here is what should be the last set of pictures from Carey's Birthday Bonfire Party.

Sorry (e:ladycroft) to mention how one thing reminds me about something about you again. But this party did a little bit. Of course the fire part did and your graduation party. But it also reminded me of how at both parties there where kinda these two groups of people there that generaly didn't interact with each other that much. But that is kinda natural when you have two groups who know the people in the own group and socialise with each other naturally. I'm not saying that the groups didn't interact at all. I also think that it is more common then people realise. That being said I had a great time and can't wait to see some more pictures from the party online. Hope you all enjoyed my pictures and didn't get tired of all the fire ones.
tinypliny - 09/26/07 02:24
LOL @ the donkey piƱata comment!
museumchick - 09/25/07 12:08
Wonderful pictures, as always!

Thanks for sharing some of your thoughts about religion on my recent post. I've still been thinking a lot about what you said, and appreciated your comment.

Those were really good shots.
theecarey - 09/24/07 21:56
ps he's not only the documenter, he's the "Peterazzi"
theecarey - 09/24/07 21:55
awesome job Peter!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking all of those pics. It was great to see you in my neck of the woods. Its great to see more of what was going on than what was taken with my camera (that I didnt use, but others used)

You are totally right though.. at all of the parties.. there is always a divide. But its natural. As long as people have a good time.
paul - 09/24/07 21:01
Wow, that is a lot of pictures. What would we do without you peter. You are the documentor.

Blogtober fest (2nd post of the day)
Category: event
So saturday I was running late for everything it seems but I still got to see two movies. The second Movie I saw was Dragon Wars. I really liked it and liked that it had a story line. I did find it kinda funny that the one Dragon looked like a huge Cobra but it was part of the story line that it looked like that. If you like dragons then you will like this movie. The first movie I saw was Mr. Woodcock. Maybe it is just me but I did like it but thought it would be better then it was. It seemed like they may have snuck in that it was a date movie. I don't mean a chick flick but I could be wrong about that. So when I got home came on line and asked if I could tag along to Blogtoberfest with (e:pmt) . Paul got back to me and there was room so to (e:Paul) and to (e:Mike) who drove thanks. I will admit that these pictures won't be in order. I also admit that I'm not sure how the pictures will look. On my camera they all looked bright but on the screen they all look dark so we shall see.

There are a few things that I don't get about what went on. Why was the Blog Tables all the way in the back. If I was going to reserve tables they would be up front near the band. They would also be right near the enterance that way when bloggers walked in they would find it right away I might even put up a sign. I don't think we where the only bloggers there I think that there was no way for use to know the others and vice versa. I wish my pictures of the dancers would have came out better. I'm guessing I wasn't close enough so all the light from the flash just spread out but not sure. After the event Mike got a ticket that so wasn't his fault really. You had all these streets coming together and he did go through a green light but I guess there was a second light that he went through that was red and he almost hit two motorcycles who we later found out where cops. We did get a little lost going to (e:theecarey)'s place but through the use of cell phones got there. That will be my next post. Hopefully Monday Little short on time right now. Hope you enjoy the pictures and hope they are decent hope everyone had a great weekend.

Thanks for your efforts to document the event for those like me who couldn't attend. Three cheers for (e:strip)'s visual historian!
