Early Ozzy and Zakk on MTV

Here's a cool video of Ozzy and Zakk on MTV back when they played videos. Kevin Seal, the "vee-jay" seems a bit out of his element. Still, pretty cool to see this footage.

Depeche Mode "Enjoy The Silence (Live)"

I'm a real fan of "dark wave" 80's rock and one of my favorite bands of that era is Depeche Mode. The synth, drum machines and brit-spy guitar tone comes together perfectly in this live track. I've always included this band's influence in the projects I write for. They are a huge influence of mine. Enjoy!

Weekly Rocker: Love's Tragedy

Femme-rocker Colleen Alanna has been stirring up the Nashville rock scene for a couple of years. Her new group "Love's Tragedy" is the perfect platform for her haunting melodies and brooding lyrics. At first glance some might dismiss this band and group them with bands like Evanescence or Lacuna Coil. Upon closer examination I find the the group displays not only great musicianship but draws upon post-modern bands like Missing Persons and Romeo Void still keeping the modern rock guitar-centric vibe. Check them out when you get a chance and you'll find that Love's Tragedy is far from tragic.

Aljon's "Going Away" Concert Footage part 1


My good friend Alli was able to capture some shenanigans from my recent "going away" party in September. My wife Kristen and the rest of the bands did a great job of keeping this party a secret from me. It was a HUGE surprise. After a few drinks Manic Bloom even got me to join them on stage for a cover of a song I wrote. Great stuff. Part two is coming soon. Stay tuned!

Aljon's Footage of "Mission: Space"


Take a look at some footage I shot during my last trip to WDW.

Step inside the X-2 Deep Space shuttle and discover the thrills of Mission: SPACE. This Epcot attraction is meant to simulate astronaut training for the first manned mission to Mars aboard the fictional X-2 Deep Space Shuttle in 2036, the seventy-fifth anniversary of Yuri Gagarin becoming the first man in space. (The year 2036 can be deduced from plaques in the attraction's queue celebrating 75 years of human spaceflight, including two faux milestones in the future.) Riders are "trainees" at the fictional International Space Training Center (ISTC), where they are arranged into crews of four before watching an introductory video featuring actor Gary Sinise.

Jimmy Kimmel and Melissa Joan Hart

I have done plenty of interviews in my time and the worst part is that "awkward silence" that can happen from time to time. I did my very best not to bring it on myself, however in this case Jimmy does a great job of creating the second best awkward moment this year next to the Taylor/Kanye debacle. See for yourself.

As a side note I have not seen "Dancing with the Stars" since Stacy Keibler was on it. I will admit Melissa seems to be taking care of herself. Now if she can only land a tv show like Jennifer Love-Hewitt.

Rocker of the Week: Manic Bloom

Here's a video of one of my favorite rock bands out of Nashville, TN. Manic Bloom is a modern rock outfit that's not afraid of combining melodies and piano with heavy grooves and a wall of guitars! Their music has plenty of layers both instrumentally and lyrically. Play one of their songs and you'll immediately begin bobbing your head. It's infectious. It's Manic Bloom. Check them out HERE!

Hornqvist, Klein lift Predators to win


Provided by PA Sports LINK

NASHVILLE, Tenn.(AP) — Patric Hornqvist and the Nashville
Predators closed out October with a flourish.

Hornqvist and Kevin Klein scored 1:43 apart midway through the
third period to lead Nashville to a 4-2 win over the Dallas
Stars on Saturday night.

The Predators are on a season-high three-game winning streak.
Dallas lost for the second time in two nights.

The teams traded power-play goals in the first. Steve Ott scored
for Dallas and Shea Weber answered for Nashville.

With the Stars on the power play, Brad Richards sent a wrist
shot on goal from the left point. Nashville goaltender Pekka
Rinne stopped that shot, but Ott was able to pounce on the
rebound and beat Rinne on the stick side.

James Neal also assisted on Ott’s goal, giving him a point in a
career-high six consecutive games.

Ott returned to the Stars’ lineup after serving a two-game
suspension for a low hit he delivered to St. Louis defenseman
Carlo Colaiacovo on Oct. 24.

Dallas took a 2-1 lead at 2:15 of the second on a goal by Brian
Sutherby, but Nashville tied it early in the third on Steve
Sullivan’s first goal since the season opener in Dallas.

“We thought that we were really taking the play to them so there
was really no doubt in our minds that this game was ours for the
taking,” Sullivan said.

Nashville took its first lead at 10:59 when Hornqvist picked up
a loose puck in the Dallas crease and put a wrist shot
underneath the crossbar for his third of the season.

“For the first time in 10 games, I got it right on my stick,”
Hornqvist said. “It was nice to get a goal again, and if we can
keep playing like that we are going to have success the whole
year.”

Klein put the Predators in front 4-2 at 11:42 with a slap shot
through traffic from the right point.

“If you look at all of the goals, there is one common theme that
there was someone right in front of the net,” Nashville coach
Barry Trotz said. “Goals are hard to come by, you have to go to
the hard places, and guys did.”

Rinne made 27 saves to record his fourth consecutive win. Alex
Auld turned aside 29 shots in the loss.

“Both teams had some pretty quality chances, but overall our
game has been improving over the last week or so,” Rinne said.

Auld felt his team was in good position going into the third
period with a 2-1 lead.

“They came out with a lot of sustained pressure, and they scored
three hardworking goals,” Auld said. “I would have liked to come
up with some saves to hold the team in it, but I wasn’t able to
do that tonight.”

NOTES: This was the third meeting between the teams this season.
They won’t play each other again until they finish the season
series on March 23 in Nashville. … Dallas G Marty Turco missed
his second consecutive game because of flulike symptoms. … The
Predators have scored a power-play goal in three consecutive
games for the first time this season. … Nashville RW Martin
Erat missed his second straight game because of a lower body
injury.
