IT'S OVER one-thousand.

Though my view count has not hit the astounding 9000 that Goku's power level does, I am happy to say that over 1000 people have viewed this blog! Thank you for the support to each and every one of you. Even you, person who has never been here before today!

I really wish I had something excited and groundbreaking to discuss today. I have been spending the last week or so sorting my shit out and preparing for a gig. Oh, I guess it was cool that my new band (Chance Procedures) played our first official gig on the 26th of July. We had fun. The other bands were amazing. Look into The C'Mons, The Benefit of the Free Man, and Lambs. All great bands with unique sounds. We made some great new friends that night.

What else have I been doing... uh... I finally saw the entirety of Ghostbusters. I saw most of Caddyshack. I picked up tickets for see the Summer Slaughter tour in Toronto. Finished off my Feist collection...

I have played a bit of Last of Us finally! That was pretty cool, I guess. It is kind of falling close to the same issue I have with Uncharted in that I just can't seem to care enough to pick it back up. The intro was bad-ass and the ideas are creepy possible. Where the AI can be funny bad at points, it is possibly the most beautiful game I have played on the PS3 to date. From playing the first couple of hours, I would give the game a 7 out of 10. I'll do something proper when I either beat it, or give up on it.

I've been listening to a lot more metal that usual lately. Just today my soundtrack was Darkest Hour and The Dillinger Escape Plan. I have been attempting to track what I listen to versus what sparked my interest in that particular album or sound. So far I have very few conclusions outside of that I like music and I would hug music if I could. I have even been tracking what I feel from listening to various different music to see if it will illicit an emotional response. So far I can only notice concentration levels being spiked or dropped, and general speed of productivity. When writing, I tend to throw on something more electronic or industrial, where as driving I tend to go with something spastic and dense. Vinyl seems to make me nostalgic, even if I have never heard the band before that day. Mp3's launch me into "listen to everything" mode. I can be lost for hours just jumping from style to artist to album to song.
In conclusion; I don't have one. I'm sure I will find an article to share with all of you next week dealing with some experiment to conclusively show what sounds relate to what parts of the brain. Today I am just going to leave it at that.

I will leave you with a great video involving greatness.
