Selections from The Punk Vault [Sand in the Face]
Since the Klowns are on tour, thus making it be even longer before Destroy Your Radio is back up and running (along with the Live From Combustion Manor radio show), I figured it was time to share some selections from the vault with you my faithful readers. Hopefully this will expose you all (all 3 [...]
Gojira!
Last nite my uncle and I went to see Godzilla at the Tivoli. The original Godzilla, in Japanese with English subtitles, and no Raymond Burr. I have never seen this version of the film, I have only ever seen the American version so this was a real treat for me. From what I remember of [...]
Not another one!!!!
John Peel passed away. For the story go here.
Star Wars then and now
I found this pair of articles that give the most detailed descriptions of the changes throught the many versions of Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back. This is easily the most comprehensive list ever complete with screen shots and audio clips and this guy picked up on stuff that even I, after seeing the movies [...]
Back to life
Well, after battling sickness for a full week, and even caving in and going to the doctor (because work demanded a note for missing so many days), I am back in the swing of things, albeit slowly. Thanks to being couch-ridden for a week, I am way behind in things I needed to do. If [...]
I got the poison
I’m home sick for the 2nd day in a row. I might have a case of the flu or something, it is really kicking my ass.
15 seconds of fame revisted
Apparently Midway Games put out an “arcade treasures volume 2″ compilation for the Xbox that features Mortal Kombat 3 on it. They also included some video history about the game, featuring yours truly talkin about my involvement on that project. I haven’t seen it, but I imagine it was just taken from the “Making of [...]
TAF will bow before me!
Last nite I murdered my Addams Family pinball! I put up a 2.174 Billion! That was nearly double my previous all-time best, and nearly a billion more than the Grand Champion score on my game (a 1.38 Billion, held by DGH for nearly the past two years)! I toured the mansion 5 times in that [...]
R.I.P. Jacopo
I found out today that one of my daghouse message board friends, Jacopo Giorgi, took his own life. This came as a complete shock to me, and everyone else who frequents that board. Jacopo was one of the nicest people on the board and had a lot of enthusiasm for punk and hardcore music. He [...]
Happy Birthday to me
Today is my birthday. I am now 35 years old. I’m not very happy about it, time is flying by and it doesn’t seem to stop. Birthdays become less fun and exciting once you become an adult, then you almost seem to dread them. Today I am not going anywhere special, I am at work [...]
Last nite’s Raw gone wrong
Dear WWE, Let the record reflect that the really entertaining tag match you had with Regal/Eugene vs. The “new Quebecers” (La Resistance) was totally ruined by the “dusty finish”. The crowd were way hot for the match and Regal in particular, and the match was working. Then you pull that crap where at the commercial [...]
The return of Skinny Puppy, again!
Skinny Puppy (ie: The Greatest Band in the World) is touring again! I just got my ticket to the Milwaukee show, which I will be attending with my old pal Ryan (who attended a puppy show with me up there I beleive in 1992!). I have the day off work for it and everything. The [...]
What Misfit are you?
This test is somewhat flawed as they include members from “the misfits”, you know the modern day version that isn’t really the same band. But here it goes… You Are Bobby Which Misfit Are You? brought to you by Quizilla
Mick Foley at Harper College
Awhile back, Lady Combustion came home and told me that Mick Foley was going to be speaking at Harper College, where she happens to take classes at part time. She suggested we go and see it. I had almost forgotten about it until earlier this week when she reminded me, and found out that the [...]
Sign me up for satellite
Howard Stern announced today on his show that in Jan 2006 he is leaving free radio and moving over to Sirius Satellite radio. I had a feeling he was going to do this since the subject has often come up on his show. Looks like in 2006 I’m going to have to become a subscriber. [...]
Koga the savior!
Thanks to Koga, I now get my daily Howard Stern fix via mp3 again everyday. I do listen to the show live when I wake up and drive to work, but there is a lot that I miss when sleeping/being at work already so now I once again can hear the entire shows, and that [...]
