METALLICA!!!

Over the years Metallica has been one of the most influencial bands known to man kind. They have brought about many bands one of which being one of the leading metal bands and my favorite so much I got a tat of their symbol known today as TRIVIUM. Without Metallica there wouldn't be many great bands out there in my eyes. They are the 7th biggest selling act in all of music. From their first album released in 1983 the band is still together and playing today. These guys can't be beat and I don't think anyone will surpass them in the history books.

The Power of Music

Music can make such an important impact on a persons real life. No one really ever seems to understand this. Ive played the guitar for three years and it has really changed who I am today. Most people dog on music and say like it shouldn't really be what it is today but I haev a completely different view. Music is the revolution to this world, it can bring joy, it can bring hate, it can conjour up just about anything you can think of emotionally. Music brings people together, but it can tear them apart. We should never let something so amazing just die out we must keep this going for the younger generations its just to amazing to let go of. Now for the people out there that say all music is evil obviously you have never heard a song that has really spoken to you. Music changes who people are and can help get them through things with the lyrics if they really mean something to you but here lately its like music has become an epidimic to start new ordeals. Never let music influence what you do to a certain degree, like if your music says go out and kill or smash don't do it for heavens sake. Music is meant to sooth the savage beast not entice it. Let the music flow and be the battery to your soul.

The first video is of me playing Of Wolf and Man by Metallica and the second one is just a random one I made but haven't quite perfected. lol. Sounds like crap because of how we recorded it but you can still somewhat tell what im playing. The Metallica song cuts off half way through the solo though and the other one I didn't play all of. Haha

Major of a sort

We all get kicks and giggles that people go online and talk trash and that you cant make any money what so ever well I'm here right now to prove you wrong. There are players of pro-circuits that make money in every tournament they play in. I am one of those players I am ranked somewhere in the top 200 players of the MLG Pro circuit for Halo 3. I can play in any online or state wide tournament and compete for cash and many other things. Not everyone can do this but I garuntee that with alot of pratiec anyone could do it. I mean you have to think about what it takes.
1. Great hand and eye coordination.
2. Great ammounts of concentration.
3. You have to be aware of your surroundings.
4. You must be able to think very fast and come up with quick strategies.
Now these are just a few these people don't really get to video games. You have to have a good ammount of thought put into playing them whereas this can help in your schooling.

I also run with one of the best MLG teams around. We recently just knocked off in an unranked match the number 25 seed in the world. Quite interesting no? So for all die hard gamers out there don't let people who say it doesn't pay to play. Well go out there and prove them wrong.

What's the BANG deal?

Everyone is always dogging on video games and what they are good for and what they do to our children well get over it. There have been many Scientific studies that have proved that video games can be a very good thing for the younger generation. Studies show that children who play games concentrate more in school than those who dont. It is also a great help to hand and eye coordination. Most studies show as well that children are passing with higher grades that play video games. Now for those of you that take videos games to the next level and go into the real world and run around like if you get hit by a truck your going to respawn in five seconds well I've got news for you. You are not coming home. The point to all this is to not take video games so seriously but know that they can provide us with some help in way unless you take things out of proportion.

What's The Real Cost?

Doesn't this mean anything?
We are fighting a war but what is the real cost to us rather than the cost to anyone we don't know from somewhere we have never been a world most of us have never seen and yet we still go and kill. But what are we really doing?


And yet we just keep fighting?
