Well, I believe I'm to consider this a virus. A virus which Joe has vomited upon me. I feel the stench and warmth of those that have been infected prior to my involvement. So here it goes. It's gonna be quick as I want to get some bible reading in before I head off tomorrow morning.
You're stuck inside Fahrenheit 451. Which album are you going to be?
Easy one. I'm gonna be an album that people can't help but be distracted by: Like it or love it, You get stuck listening. Jeff Wayne's Musical adaption of War of the Worlds. A sobering thought as the moog rips into sweet candy goodness, something out there is more advanced than even mankind. "The chances of anything coming from Mars were a million to one, but still they come."
Have you ever had a crush on a musician/pop star?
Yeah.. hehe..shucks. There was this all chick band called Toto Ceolo. As a child I was dazzled by TC's big hair and 80's chick vocals. There's something about that half yodel thing that chicks did in the 80's. I still love one of their songs to this day is called "I eat cannibal", awesome.
The last album you bought was...
Mmm.. this is actually a good question. This particular CD I had been chasing for quite some time. "Rollins Band- Weight". Now I really dig Henry Rollins for his passion, and his dead set ferosity that he attacks issues. On this Album is another of my all time favourite songs, for lyrics. "Liar" is not a song for the faint hearted it is a emotional and mental rollercoaster. Pregnant women and people with heart conditions please consult you physician before partaking in this activity. Henry can put pain to music like few others and this is a fantastic example.
The last album you listened to was...
Well... I still have a track to go, but that would be; Dream Evil-The Book of Heavy Metal. What a great album. I must return this copy to it's rightful owner and Buy my own copy. Yes, my own copy. Is it good?? yes. Somewhere between tongue in cheek and brilliant.
What are you currently listening to?
Scorpions-Tease me Please Me. One of the songs by the scorpions I don't know all that well, the joys of shuffle on such a large playlist. Lots of squealing guitars, poor subject matter. I've always been impressed with their grasp of the english language. These guys are totally sweet.
Five albums you would take to a desert island...
I'm gonna cheat on this one and throw in some best ofs.
The first three are really an easy choice, they inhabited the 3 disc carousel at my old flat for almost 3 years, the eject button got dusty.
The Scorpions-Gold It is exactly that, Gold. Just about everyone I've shown the Scorpions have gone out and bought their own cd's and this cd has a good assortment of gold. Note:the afore mentioned "tease me please me" does not appear on that cd
Pink Floyd-Darkside of the Moon Atmospheric goodness
Type O Negative-Bloody Kisses Dark and melodic, yet, they are able to not take them too seriously. Some of their other albums really fail to capture beauty and terror like this one
Black Sabbath-Dehumaniser Post Ozzy things continued. This album is a showcase of TI on guitars branching and realling seeking to make noise in the progressive way of things, with Dio providing vocals, this is a sweet album. One track, "time machine", even lending itself to the WAynes WOrld sound track.. this is not the Black SAbbath you know.
Jimi Hendrix-Ultimate Experience The guy was good, the music is great I still learn from it. A guitarist is lying if he thinks he fully comprehends Hendrix. I love Vai but Hendrix was in another dimension, not just drug induced.
What is the next album you would procure, had you the choice?
I remember a math test I did once, which taught me to read all questions before starting any. Have I learnt my lesson?? No. As previously stated "Dream Evil"-"The Book of Heavy Metal"
Which musician/singer would you most like to spend the day with and why?
Jack Black, he has albums and he sings. Cool guy. I'm sure he'd be fun to throw cheezels at for and afternoon.
Who are you going to pass this stick to (3 persons) and why?
Lachlan-He will have something to say, just try and stop him, I wont.(grin)
Karen B-Cause her responses will be gramatically correct and well formated so they will be a pleasure to read.
Ben B- To see if he and Karen partner up in their 10(combined) cd's for the desert island.
Rock on..

Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now. Keep it up!
And according to this article, I totally agree with your opinion, but only this time! :)
A likeable out of date majority is the reward of a well-spent youth. A substitute alternatively of its bringing wretched and woebegone prospects of degenerate, it would give in to defeat us hopes of timeless youth in a less ill world.
