Status Quo La Quo Sunday Takes You To Wrestlemania

LISTEN HERE, BROTHER, DUDE, WE GOT SOME BIIIG ANNOUNCEMENT FOR YOU BASTARDMANIACS

TWO NEW CONVENTIONS!!!
OMNI EXPO- OMNI EXPO’s first focus is that of an electronics media tradeshow that brings manufacturers of the worlds latest cutting edge technology to a targeted consumer demographic that wants the best the future has to offer right now. The second focus is to create an umbrella venue for like-minded smaller conventions and trade shows in the area that have a similar consumer base. These conventions and trade shows will encompass all aspects of future technology based media, such as but not limited to science fiction, electronic based gaming, multi-cultural fantasy, and animation.

BASICALLY IT'S A NEW HYPE-ASS CONVENTION IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA!

Lots of awesome guests are lined up, such as Ellen McLain (GlaDos), John Patrick Lowrie (Sniper- TF2), Robert Axelrod (Lord Zedd), Kyle Herbert (Dragonball Z), Jen Taylor (Princess Peach from the Mario games, Left 4 Dead) AND MORE!!!

Also, returning for Year #2,

HERO HYPE CON- A small convention in the heart of Miami showcasing cosplayers, gamers & fans, within the super hero world. So basically, GET HYPED!!!

I had a lot of fun last year, and I know this year will be even better!


More news as it comes.

So Wrestlemania XXX opened up with a tag match that ended up in a giant cuddle puddle, and ended with a championship match befitting of this special anniversary. Cesaro won, Daniel Bryan got what was coming to him since Summerslam, and Brock Lesnar ate the Undertaker like a delicious sandwich from Jimmy Johns.

Also I started watching Kill La Kill. The creators have shows like FLCL and Gurren Laggan on their resume, so you know it's going to be out there. While I've yet to see those series, this is just plain insane.

Echo Chamber Post Game Episode 76

DOWNLOAD THE ALBUM TO XSV, THE INXS SIDE PROJECT NOW!

April F- Oh.. oh...

-One band that changed its front-man and still managed to be sucessful was AC/DC. Granted, the sound of the band changed up a little bit, from fast/hard blues rock to something a little slower, but it's still good.

-REPOSTING ODERUS URUNGUS MEMORIAL PAGE

-Alice Cooper on the Muppets:


-Alice Cooper on Rock Band 2: The Stars. I need to do a live RiffTrax one of these days. You can watch the episode in question here:
 


-Speaking of Henry Rollins vs. Glenn Danzig:


-So here's the comic we were talking about. Henry and Glenn are my OTP.
There's also a Christmas Special:


If you give this to me at ALL (either at a con or send it to me through Amazon) I am obligate to buy you a beer.

Status Quo Sunday Welcomes You To A New Kind Of Tension

On March 28th, my Dad turned 63, and as a birthday present, I took him out to see American Idiot, the musical based on the Green Day album. He loved it when we saw it on Broadway a couple years ago, and while in the Broward Center for Performing Arts the show was much less elaborate (and are seats were wa further back), it was still a good show for a great album and gave me the itch to work on Status Quo Radio.

Really, the show and singing the album in Rock Band made me realize how well put together the whole album is, and what a coincidence, it turns 10 in September. What a kick in the ass it all is, and now I'm even more determined to get SQR finished. 

HOWEVER, there is another song I worked on instead for podcast Overlord and Heir Commandant, Ozone, who wanted me to do a song for an upcoming project. It's about wrestling, a.k.a. The Only Reason I Turn On My TV Expect For Playing Video Games.

This week is back to more music, more con hustling and more "Crap I Do When I Should Be Working On Magic". Next week, I should have up a new song AND something upcoming confirmed.

I got the setlist all worked up for Miami Hurricon, and you'll hear about that, and another BIG convention very soon!

But as it's shaping up right now, Miami Hurricon, for a FREE show in it's early years, is really good. Of all things, I'm looking forward to meeting Max Giraldi, a.k.a. HotDiggedyDemon, to see if Senpai notices me and my song "Protocols Ordering New Youth":

Echo Chamber Post Game Episode 75

THIS PODCAST MEANS THAT WE LOOK OVER SONG MEANINGS

Song Meanings!

-"Fat Lip" by Sum 41

  • Funnily enough, ALT 164/165 would fit in right alongside the Blink 182s and Sum 41s of the day.
-"The Trees" by Rush
  • Damn Maples, blasting their jigaboo music loud in their cars.
  • It's OK, the sunlight will trickle down
  • Have you heard of LeafCoins? It's the future of plants!
  • Apparently, Goofus and Gallant is still running in Highlights, which still exists
-"Timber" by Pitbull ft. Kesha
  • Song's pretty good until Pitbull opens his fucking mouth
  • Also, this guy is TOTALLY overselling how clever this song is. Chances are, someone wrote that chorus and hook, the Pitbull came in and fucked it up. Usually in pop music, one or two clever people do all the work, then Pitbull comes and tears it all down.
  • I'm now imagining "Drive By" by Train ft. Pitbull and I'm now furious. Deargodpleaseendthepainnownownow
  • akjfkjasflkjkjfffffffffff
 -"Bangarang" by Skrillex ft. Sirah
-"Honky Tonk Badonkadonk" by Trace Adkins
  •  "A Maple girl told me I got a Forest booty"
  • TW: Grandma Slapping is the name of my... Dethklok cover band
  • MYSTAKIN ADMITS HE'S DUMB!!!
-"Nookie" by Limp Bizkit
  • Soiling themselves and Limp Bizkit go well together. Oh, we were talking about a different song.
  • "Nookie" was nominated for Best Hard Rock song at The Grammys? WOW, that's a sham.
-"Super Rad" by The Aquabats
  • Derrick Acosta of Mega64 assumed that this song was originally The Aquabats' Theme Song. Replace every instance of "Super Rad" with "The Aquabats" IT STILL FITS!!!
Wait, we stuck to a topic this week? CRAP... THINK OF A NON SEQUITER!

Restus In Pieceus Oderus Urungus

Ever see something that you point at and go "YES, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!!!" Looking back, even though I didn't really listen to their music, GWAR is one of those things. They're awesomely ridiculous and make kick ass music.

Dave Brockie, a.k.a. Oderus Urungus, the band's frontman, was found dead on March 23rd. 

Allow me to present to you some highlights of the man, the legend, the extraterrestrial overlord, judging us from whatever planet his people call heaven.

Oderus Urungus reads "Goodnight Moon"
