Happy Birthday Robert Trujillo!

The Metallica Bassist turns 42 today. He had big shoes to fill since the band lost Cliff Burton (RIP) and Jason, who left the band, but Robert filled them real good!

In other Metallica news: Congratulations to Kirk Hammett and his wife Lani for having their first child, a beautiful baby boy!!

In The Attic in Hollywood

Finally! After all the times I wasn't able to make it to any ITA shows, Barnes & Noble appearances, and The Who concert, I am finally going to see Rachel Fuller! I got a ticket to the ITA show at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood.
It's funny that the show is at the Hotel Cafe because before the announcement of this show, I was planning on seeing Tom Morello as The Nightwatchman at The Hotel Cafe. His first show is a week after ITA, and he has two more shows each Tuesday after the first. His tickets are $10 and all the proceeds are going to an organization called Food not Bombs. They feed the homeless. I was planning on going to all three shows, but since ITA came up, my plans might change.

Let me know if you're going, that way we can meet somewhere.

Happy Belated Birthday Simon Townshend!

I just found out today that October 10th was Simon's Birthday, so here's a late Birthdaty wish. He is 46 years old, and he ROCKS!!!

Happy Birthday John Entwistle ,John & Sean Lennon!

He would be 66 Today. I always wonder, what would he think of the world today? Would he think about the Iraq war the same way as he felt about Vietnam? I think so.

Update: There we go! Now I've included Sean and John Entwistle.

Sirius Radio Rocks!!!!!

Some of you have been told by me to try Sirius radio because of the awesome Who channel, so bear with me when I say it again, Sirius Rocks! Unfortunately my free three day trial ended, so I decided to open another e-mail address just to get three more days. Is this wrong? I know I should buy it, but I don't have any money. Also once you hear commercial free radio, it's hard to go back to regular radio. I wish The Who channel would be around forever, I really love it! So far I have heard many Who songs that I haven't heard before , such as "So Sad About Us" then there are songs I have heard but don't have on CD, such as "Guitar and Pen" I also heard their covers of Rolling Stones songs. I also love the two heavy metal channels Octane and Hard Attack.
If what I'm doing is wrong, I promise this will be the last time I open another e-mail address to get more free trials.

1st Anniversary of Blogging

Wow! It has been a whole year since I started Blogging, and it all started with my love of The Who. I first heard about blogging from The Daily Show, but here's how I got started on blogging. I was navigating around the internet looking for cool websites about The Who and I stumbled into Pete Townshend's Official site. I started reading his diary pages and he was talking about Rachel. I wondered who she was, I thought at the time she was just a friend of his. He also talked about how she had a blog, so I checked it out. (this is how I discovered Rachel) I remember Rachel talking about how Pete started getting into blogging. Later on when reading Pete's diary pages, that is where I first found TBWHM. At first I was reading the chapters there, but when he mentioned that we can leave comments on the chapters in his blog, I clicked on the link and found his blog. When I learned that we can make our own blogs, I did so.
...and that's how I got into the world of blogging.
Looking back from my first entry, I sure have come a long way. At first I wasn't sure of what I would be writing about and I was worried that I would get nasty comments from trolls. Well now I know that I have written so many interesting topics and I have received a lot of nice comments from you all.
Before blogging, I used to post comments on message boards, which wasn't always a great experience because of the trolls or the very opinionated commenters. I have only been in a chat room once, and I hated it! I clicked on the topic of music, but in that chatroom, they weren't talking about music! also those chatters type too fast! Everytime I tried to type a response, the chatters would already be on a new topic!
So far, blogging has been the best experience on the internet ever! (Better than MySpace, and I still don't have an account there!) and I'm still having a great experience. I have talked to so many interesting people, and I know that when I finally meet any of you guys, it will feel like seeing an old friend again.

I would like to thank Pete Townshend for getting me started on blogging, for introducing me to Rachel, and Mikey, and for his wonderful stories, even though The Comedian was stopped.

Here's to many more years of blogging!

Newsflash! I Saw The Who on MTV News

OK, I know MTV usually sucks because they don't show music videos until 3am, but when MTV News was reporting on the US Virgin Music Festival, along with Gnarls Barkley, The Killers, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, they mentioned The Who! For the rest of the story check out MTV News
