The Flamboyance

Just found out the Liars/Fuck Buttons and the Santogold shows are on the same day. They're both free but I'm torn on which one to go to. I'll probably head to Santogold because I see that as being more fun, but I will probably change my mind a bunch of times until then. Shit.

Bake Sale is dope. Got both Nigger Tape and Untitled earlier. Havent listened to the mixtape yet but I'm liking Untitled so far and I was never that big on Nas.

Past two days Wale: The Mixtape About Nothing Broken Social Scene presents Brendan Canning: Something For All of Us The Cool Kids: The Bake Sale Devendra Banhart: Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon Lil Wayne: Tha Carter III The Dodos: Visiter Times New Viking: Rip It Off Ra Ra Riot Girl Talk: Feed The Animals Fuck Buttons: Street Horrrsing Morrissey: Vauxhall and I Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks: Real Emotional Trash

It's being billed as BSS. I went to the Kevin Drew tour and most of the guys were playing. They still play a shit load of BSS songs, so it was still the Broken Social Scene to me even without some members. Also, since Brendan Canning's album is coming out, this show will prob be centered around his material more than Drew's.

Many concerts in the coming months Feist The Siren Festival (Stepehen Malkmus, Broken Social Scene, Times New Viking, Ra Ra Riot, Islands, Dodos, Jaguar Love and more) KRS-One (maybe) The Faint w/ Shy Child & Jaguar Love Liars Santogold Jamie Lidell MGMT Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band GZA Spiritualized (maybe) Hot Chip (maybe) The Mars Volta A lot of these shows are free, so that's really great for my pocket obviously.

Undertaker? That's Mike Awesome. The other guy in the back looks like Leather Face.

Jamie Lidell: Out of my system

The bonus disc. It's really fun.

I listened to a lot of Morrissey today. Viva Hate, Greatest Hits, You Are The Quarry, and Live at the Hollywood Bowl

Seriously That's awesome.

The Brian Pillman set is amazing. One of the better documentaries I've seen and the bonus matches are great too. It's worth the money.

Glad to hear that because I've been meaning to buy Persona 3 but it's pretty hard to find nowadays. I'll definitely get this.

Good to know Evans is ok now and wrestling. I dont know if you saw the footage of how he got his orbital socket destroyed, but it was pretty brutal and nasty. Also, I LOVE Alexa Thatcher. I'm pretty shocked that Necro vs Sandman was full of "weak" spots. Necro usually busts his ass and makes the crowd believe he's close to dying. Dissapointing because Necro vs Sandman sounds amazing on paper.

Yeah, that post confused the shit out of me.

First PPV @ home was most likely the Royal Rumble that featured HHH vs Cactus Jack. I don't remember what year that was in. First ppv I went to was ECW One Night Stand 2006.

Yeah, mad dudes hand out a lot of flyers for these events after a lot of ROH shows. I havent attended one, but they always seems to have nice looking cards. Does Eddie Kingston have a match?

Yup. We were rooting for BLKOUT really hard and were bummed when they didnt win. I just dont think Lince needed this win to establish himself more. A real Trio should have won. Also, I'm totally digging Vin Gerard and that angle. Awesome pics btw. I'm still amazed at the fact that Glacier was booked. Me and my friends started a "Blood Runs Cold" chant and he totally appreciated that.

I went to the Sunday show and I had a blast although I wasnt really feeling Team Icognito winning the tournament. I did appreciate the fact that Lince used the Chikara special on Kingston to win though. That was a very cool touch.

Yeesh. Yeah, that sucks. The lack of build for the unmasking REALLY bothers me since it could obviously be so much better than this. We kinda figured out the unmasking would take place in a video wire after it didnt happen during the show, but damn, seeing it really go down like this is such a bummer.

Eh, "rape angle" is stretching it imo. We werent encouraging Dempsey to rape Danger. That's crazy talk. We were egging him on. His character is that of a fat loser wimp and everyone knows he's too scared to touch a girl. Sweeney was just trying to embarrass Dempsey and the crowd was just bein a rowdy crowd. People are blowing this out of proportion on the ROH boards. In no way was this a serious rape angle. Degrading to women? Sure, but it's wrestling and this goes on in wrestling.

Ive been there before for concerts and ONS 06 and it's really big compared to the Grand Ballroom. I'd say its bigger than two Grand Ballrooms put together. The are about 2 or 3 rows of balconies and the floor is pretty wide. I didnt grab a ticket last night but I'll be sure to get some eventually. I too am pretty bummed about AOTF not being in the title picture. Those guys are pretty awesome imo.

Awesome show. The only bad match was Mathews vs Steen. I was looking forward to this but it sucked. The match was about 10 minutes and Mercury was sweating as if he'd been in the ring for 30+ minutes. It just seemed like he got tired really quickly. He seemed out of it. Sunny looked amazing. Ass everywhere during her segment. CM Punk was hanging out with Becky Bayless watching the show by the stage.

Yeah. That's a shame. I'll be there tomorrow. I hope everything will run smoothly.

Just got my ticket for Night 3. I cant fucking wait!
