Movin along



I got my Nicaraguan cichlids and they look better than I had thought.

Went to a nice metal show last night. There were 11 or so bands...but we only saw 4. They started everything super early and everyone was pissed, usually you can show up at 8 and still see 4 bands but the 3rd headliner was starting at 730. I was not happy to walk in at 7:40 to Suffocation already playing. Oh well, at least I got to see them for the most part. Brutal as all hell, I could watch them all day.

Spike and I ran upstairs during Suffocation's last song to see Lightning Swords of Death and grab some beers. It wasn't lightning swords of death...it ended up being Septic Flesh. I was happy though because I thought they were going to be the first band to play since they aren't a huge name. They were actually kinda cool. Apparently they are very into ancient culture and worship Anubis or something but it was interesting none-the-less.

Behemoth was great. So fast, so accurate so intense. They played Slaves Shall Serve and it seemed even faster than on the cd.

Devildriver came on and we left. But seriously, after seeing suffocation and behemoth, why would anyone stay for Devildriver?! It's like seeing a horror movie, then seeing Avatar in 3D then afterwards you can see the little mermaid.... uhh, no thanks I'll just head home and grab some mcdonalds.

Some video of Behemoth... It's pretty much exactly like last night and that song is badass.

Almost...


Well, I've got almost all my fish accounted for, except the ray.

As I started breaking down my tank I decided to keep my big tank. I think I'll order a nice pair of central american cichlids and just have them be my centerpiece. I've always wanted to have a nice big pair of cichlids to breed.

I'm thinking about nicaraguan cichlids... like these



Edit: I ordered a pair from the best guy in the country...I should get them wednesday morning. I'm curious to see how they look, I've seen many very different pictures and none seem to be the same.

I'll post some pictures of my pair thursday or friday when they are settled in.

Hmmm...

I'm OUT!! I've decided I'm going to get out of fishkeeping for now. I just posted all my fish on a few websites. After I get them sold I can sell tanks, filters, etc. I also put up a few guitars...the ones I don't use.

The cash will be good but its mostly because I've become bored with everything. I need a big change and after I get rid of this stuff I feel like I'll be able to do something new. Most likely this means moving somewhere. I have no idea where but I've been here far too long. I've been tied down by all this stuff and I knew it but it's gotten to the point where I need to go.

Now I need to work on possible locations/life choices.

Back mofos.

Since I'm seemingly going to have much more free time on my hands (at least at night) I decided to start this up again.

Going to be working 6-7 days a week and playing guitar all night...pretty much back to my early fall schedule.

I'm finally admitting I'm addicted to energy drinks. Its not even because of the taste or kick. I started doing it so I could get my hands warmed up faster for playing guitar and now I can't play guitar without one. Plus when you are trying to play necrophagist, I feel like you shouldn't be able to play that without some help from satan or at least a monster energy drink.
