First of all let me start of by saying that I first saw GSO at their debut show with Brandon Stone their second guitarist who ended up leaving for Florida. He is now replaced by Johan Von on the guitar. He also sings some vocals. I have to say that his personality seems to mesh quite well with the bands style.

I’ve never heard the bands that reviewers have made comparisons too so I wasn’t really familiar with their style. Initially I was a little sceptical of the idea they had because it sounded just a little to fun. After seeing last weeks show I was pleasantly surprised. They have matured so much. The sound that was odd the first time around seems to fit quite well together now. I love their new songs. They still have the same style as their first go at things but it seems seems a little more rounded out and deliberate. We still hear strange synthesizer, measured simple guitar filling out sections, and bouncing drums. One of my pet peeves about local bands is that the rhythm sections are not always the most adept at being as tightly put together as they should be so it’s always nice to hear a very punchy and even sounding bass.

The larger dance floor that Club Congress has wasn’t full when they started playing but very quickly brought people close to the stage. It’s not bad when you have hot chicks and older people dancing at the same time enthusiastically to your music.

Anyway to wrap this up: I’m very happy that things seem to be working out for the GSO and I wish Nathan all the best. Damn, I should’ve bought a CD at the show!

I had a blast with the five people I went up with and I didn’t really want to come home. The food we had down there was obviously delicious.

By the way, if your ever in Tropics, (right next to Manny’s Beach Club), do not use the restroom there.

But you can also create some pretty spiffy looking things with it and I plan to post some of the cooler things I’ve been working on lately and according to this article at least just those two problems will be taken care of.

It was awesome. She’s got a baby doll voice, acts very demure on stage and then calls for and gets a whisky. I love her phrasing. She’s got a really beautiful unique voice. Her music is mostly soft and Ambrosia melody oriented but the faster songs are exciting and sweet.

Anyway, if you haven’t heard of her take a listen. (Not you Kevin)

Its definitely better than a hairspray powered potato launcher my cousin and I made years ago.

Finally I went to Firefox help and one of the things they suggested doing before submitting a bug was to create a new profile with -profilemanager. After creating a new profile my bookmarks toolbar now works!

This is just something that has been aggravating me for a very long time.

Some people apparently have figured out how to get around it.

I didn’t know much about Ray so seeing this as kind of entertaining broad overview of his life was pretty cool. I definitely didn’t know he had that kind of drug problem through his career.

Must all great musicians have some crazy vice?

I spent way to much time on this.

I’d like to find out if there are any plugins to cross-post to other blogs. If not I’ll have to add that ability.

Btw, CSS is really a pain.
