Name for my possible station

Ok, I'm gonna do it....but I need a name for my station, well it ain't gonna be juz rock, cuz I wana showcase all kind of music, but its probably gonna be mainly instrumental, featuring e guitar. Jazz to rock to metal to fusion but all featuring the guitar.

Instrumental Fusion?
Fusion of Guitar Genres?

Gmail part 2

Btw if ya using Yahoo or Hotmail, be forewarn that any Gmail invites will be dumped into the spam folder(Yahoo) and if ya using Hotmail, it will be deleted.

Ok I dun know how true this is but I've read this on alot of websites, so it should be true!!!!!

So do check the spam folder, as for Hotmail....I dun know what to say.

Ways to Get a Gmail Acct..

Hehehe, I juz realize that there are a variety of ways to get a Gmail acct. Hehehe, I got one too but anyway, here's a few way.

Sign up to be a beta-user via Gmail.com

This is probably the worse way to go.

The next way is to try buying one via where else but Ebay or Gmail Swap

The best way is to get invited for example there a number to websites that offer Gmail acct as a reward for reporting Bugs or if you have made some sort of signaficant contribution to that site.

here are some sites that I know of:
If u have been using this for quite a while, you might get invited, www.blogger.com

www.blinkx.com

If ya a Mozilla user and can find a bug you might get a free Gmail Acct

Over and Out

Live365

Well...I've always wanted to be a radio DJ...I think its even hipper to do it online...for example Live 365 is a great way cuz if ya gonna be doing it yourself u gotta pay royalties and stuff and I dun wana do this illegally, its EVIL and I'm a musician too....hmmm....well I'll most probably decided at the end of the month...

Mostly likly I'll will try this out for like two or three months cuz it won't be a problem for me finacially USD14.95 so I'm still ok....

CDs

Ok...I bought a shit load of CDs this 2 wks, Tower is have a clearance sale so quite a few CDs are going for half price bought about 10 CDs I think....

And Frankly I'm DAMN disappointed by two CDs cuz they are censored...do u believe it, its freaking censored...if I knew I would not have bought it...juz imagine if its a Slim Shady CD or any sort of gangsta rap CD, a 50 mike CD would be like only 20 minutes long cuz most of it will be censored.....DIGUSTING

Anger

Talk bout anger, frustrations, pain and whateva, it reminded me of this show I saw on TV bout 1 year back, there's this one shop in Japan for people to vent their anger, basically you pay a certain amt of money and you get one room that you can destroy and totally trash it.

Well there ain't any here(where I live) but I think its pretty freaking cool, I mean there muz be times where you really feel like whacking something but you probably can only slam the door or throw a book on the ground or something? Well now you get to trash a room and not have to clean up or anything.....How bout that?

Something Different

Btw on a different beat, if ya'll got a comp and wana help find a cure for Cancer you can do so by visiting this website.

This is for a good cause

...

My brothers all studied in some of the BEST University in the world yet I can't....I'am a FAILURE.....I think I need help

Pain

I feel a lot of pain both physical and mental.....I've no talent and I dun know y I'm alive, what's my purpose in life? Can someone answer me? I've been trying to figure this q out for a really long time since I'm in Grade 7. Its been almost 10 years.....

Fade to Black

Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

-Metallica

Big Big World

hohoho

Finally someone posted a comment on my blog hahaha....anyway I went back old school today and listened to some good old Metallica. Have been listening to lots of Jazz and stuff. For some reason I juz felt like listening to something heavy and out came the Tallica CDs :-) my roots.

Being in a music college, I get influenced to listen to lots of Jazz cuz its the hardest form of music and for the rockers we are told to listen to lots of Dream Theater, I listen to a lot of DT as well and they are one of the most sucessful Progressive Rock band but like Jazz, its very progressive and very long. DT's song can go up to thiry mike for one song and frequently on their ablum (full length 60 - 70 mike) there are very few songs, 7 - 10. compare to say a punk or pop ablum which is not full length(avg 50 mike) there will be like 12 tunes on it.

Becoz their song is so long and complex, in order to absorb the whole ablum it could take many spins and there are always some sort of themes going on, usually based on events in the past year.

Dun feel like typing anymore....:-p

2 new CDs

I've not got any new CDs for a very long time and rarely do I get any modern rock band...but today I got a pop rockish CD by a band from Taiwan call FIR...they are a bit different cuz they uses some modes in certain songs which are very rare in the Chinese market...probably that's y I got the CD.

The other that I got is solo release by a metal legend Marty Friedman but however this CD is very much different from the band he use to be in, Megadeth....think Kitaro but more rockish closer to rock ballad. Btw this is a old CD call Scenes, probably very hard to find in South East Asia. A good CD if you like Kitaro's style but want abit more of a rockish flavor to it.

New Month

Well new month...time for some spring cleaning....getting ready for next time...I dun know...I dun really have anythought provoking stuff to say....well....hmmm.....How bout saying this...

Something I was asked when I used to be in the military, if we are on a mission and it would determine if there is going to be a war or not and one of our teammate is badly injured and might not survive should we kill our mate or bring him along? Out mate here is defintely gonna be slowing us down and he needs treatment something we cannot give him but yet if we do not complete this mission it is possible that there will be war.....what should be done?
