Gravity: Revisited!

Last October I wrote about an amazing band I saw open for Dream Theater, called Gravity. A quartet of kids producing some truly amazing stuff. Recently Gravity released their first full length CD featuring 12 amazing, ground breaking songs!

Genesis, Awesome as they should be!

I am still kicking myself in the butt for missing Genesis’s last tour in 1992. But when Phil announced he was leaving the group in 1994, combined with the failed 1998 American tour with Ray Wilson as lead vocalist, I thought I’d never see them live… ever.
 

Holy Crap Gravity is Unbelievable!

GravityVery few times do I get excited about something new, and even fewer times do I feel like I get in; liking something that is popular at the ground level. The last time I jumped on the 'cool train' was with Southpark, and that lasted till the bastards made fun of my man Phil Collins.

Dream Theater Review plus an amazing extra!

I grew attached to Dream Theater when I saw them open for Yes in 2004.

Weird Al: NERD POWER/The most underrated performer ever!

There's no way to describe Weird Al, except that his shows are unbelievably amazing and entertaining. Seriously this guy has more costume changes than Cher during a performance. And during those changes you'll see numerous fake interview videos that make fun of pop culture, old and new.

Why is Firefox so Great

This has been something I’ve been meaning to write for a while. It was reported Europe has jumped on the Firefox bandwagon and started to give some real heat to Internet Explorer. Many people all over the world are clamoring on how great Firefox is. But why did Firefox succeed where Netscape 8, Opera and others have failed? Is it the easy to use, simple interface? The faster page loads? The fact that security is much better?
