I haven't even finished watching the whole show yet. I set the DVR to record the last hour because I had to get to sleep… gotta have my sleep so I can get up at 5am for the gym! The first two hours though were pretty phenomenal. Lady Gaga is truly talented. I don’t care what you think about her crazy outfits or whether or not you think she’s a tranny. That is TRUE talent. Maybe her duet with Elton John will help legitimize her as a true musician and not a passing fad. She seemed to be …

I feel like I'm FINALLY starting to make some noticeable gains with my fitness routine. More so in my actual performance, but I am finally seeing small changes in the mirror. I've been keeping track of a few things for a while now to check my progress. Check it out... These are my supposed "One Rep Max" graphs (with the exception of the weight graph obviously).

 Jen and I went to see No Doubt, Paramore and The Sounds last night in Irvine.  It was a pretty amazing show all around.  We missed most of The Sounds' set while waiting in line but from what I heard, they sounded good.  Paramore put on a pretty awesome live show.  That was my first time seeing Paramore but every live video of them Hayley has always sounded REALLY good and this show was no exception.  Some of their songs start to sound similar to me but they do have some …

I'm staying up all night trying to get this site up and running.  Should be working on a couple new songs tomorrow.  The shit is turning out a lot better than I ever expected.  I'm a happy camper.
