Wouldn't it be cool if roller derby was actually a college credit class?
Just a random thought before I get into something really bothering me.
Just had a few things going on and some free time so I'd thought I'd spend some time to talk about a few things. First, being a Yankees fan it was nice seeing them win the World Series for their record 27th time though is it just me who thinks that the Series should be over before November? It's just too cold out for baseball. Brrrrrr!
Tomorrow will see the The Cult take the stage at the Fillmore. Forming in 1983, this English rock band is known for it's singles such as singles such as "Love Removal Machine", "Fire Woman" and "She Sells Sanctuary" (the last being off their biggest record 'Love' which they will be performing at the show in it's complete self). For those that don't remember, lead singer Ian Astbury followed in his hero's footsteps by becoming lead singer in an updated version of The Doors, with original members Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek, known as The Doors of the 21st Century which I saw at Pine Knob and he really channelled Jim Morrison that night. If you would like to see the Cult tomorrow, be the first person to email me at doramu13@yahoo.com and I'll hook you up with a pair of tickets for the show.
Also, on Monday 9th, AFI will be performing at the Fillmore. Best known for the songs "Miss Murder" and "Love Like Winter", this American rock band from Ukiah, California would like you to see them live and the first person to email me at doramu13@yahoo.com gets that privelidge. They are performing with the English punk rock band Gallows.
