The last week has been action packed!

I've started working again at Safeway. I need to make a lot of money this summer to finanace a beer and CD-buying habit come this fall when school starts again.

On Tuesday June 19th I went to the Graceland in Seattle to see Hoobustank, Pressure4-5, and CKY. The amazing part of this was that the show was only $10 and venue was so small that I got to meet Dan, Markku, and Doug from Hoobustank. Dan and Markku signed my Hoobustank promo-CD and Doug sold me a blue Hoobustank t-shirt. All the bands on the ticket were amazing. Hoobustank put on the best show by-far. When we got there I could hear people in the crowd asking "What's Hoobustank?" "Who are these guys?" and "What do they sound like?". Half way through their set I could hear people saying "This is Awesome!" and "These guys Rock!". Knowing who Hoobustank is and where they are from, this brought a smile to my face.

Pressure4-5 had an explosive set. There is a lot of talent in that band and wouldn't be surprised if they made it on mainstream radio by the end of the year. They have a Papa Roach sound that is sure to take them far.

CKY closed the show and did it in good fashion. They played all the favorites including the grocery kart song, the van backing into the snow song, and even the Santa Klaus song. I was really hoping for Brian's freestyle but he didn't have the equipment needed. Altogether it was awesome night.

Saturday June 23rd, I saw Radiohead at the Gorge. It was my first Radiohead concert and my first concert experience at the Gorge. The Gorge is beautiful at dusk. The Beta Band performed well although the sound had not been worked out. Radiohead took the stage around 9PM and played a two-hour set including three encore performances. They played mostly from OK Computer, Kid A, and Amnesiac. There were a few songs from The Bends. It all sounded amazing. Seeing everyone who was on the grass standing during 'The National Anthem' and 'Motion Picture Soundtrack' was an awesome site. The songs that stood out to me were 'Paranoid Android' 'The National Anthem' and 'Motion Picture Soundtrack.' Altogether it was an amazing night and a concert experience i will never forget. If anyone taped the show or has pictures, please e-mail me at mejum@hotmail.com i'd like to get a copy of the show

Work has stopped on the VikingBoard for now. I am focusing my attention to a term paper that is due this Friday. I am researching Malcom X. For some really amazing material on Malcom X, check this out.

I've been busy the last few days. A buddy of mine are creating a website that will allow WWU students to discuss classes, professors, dorm life, places to party, etc. Right now the name will be the VikingBoard which we hope will become the successor to the WesternChannel which was brought down due to lack of funding. If our VikingBoard is successful, we'll move it from the freehosting provided by Liquid2k to DreamHost. We hope that people will donate money to fund the VikingBoard by a jar that will sit in the coffee house on campus. If not, we might be able to scrape up enough cash between the two of us to keep this thing running. You can seen a screenshot of the site here.

Go buy the new Weezer and Tool CDs.

I got Radiohead tickets for the Gorge, WA on June 23rd. As far as I know, the last time Radiohead performed in the Northwest was in the fall of 1998. This will be an amazing show.

Not much happening at school, same old shit. I'm getting pumped for the Weezer release tomorrow. I'd really like to be at the Seattle Tower Records at midnight to buy the album but school is holding me down. I'll be sure to buy it tomorrow first thing! If you haven't heard the album yet, it is a very good CD. After listening to it a number of times, I think that the 'Green Album' has the potential of coming close to the attention that the 'Blue Album' (Weezer-Weezer or Self-Titled) achieved. Every song is 'poppy' and is very very catchy. It is a must for any =w= fan.

I'm gonna buy this. I don't have the money to do it, but I'm gonna do it.

Here is some interesting information on the United States and Chinese web site defacing spree. I want to make a logo for pr0phet and have him use it on a defaced Chinese site. I wish I was 3l33t as pr0phet too.

The Christina splash has been replaced with the Elroy splash. Elroy looks better.

Have you seen the Anamorph movie yet? If not go check it out and be sure to turn up the volume. The movie is awesome. You want more movies on the net? Have you seen Ambush? It's directed by the same guy who did 'Ronin' and features a BMW 740i. It has a pretty good car chase and that's about it. Like the car though.

I want to become an Icy Hot Stuntaz. If only I was white.

I like muffins.

Before I go to bed...The Lil Bow Wow Game.

I thought that because I'm expecting a fat tax return this year that I would go out and have someone else design my website. When I first started looking a few days ago, I came across this design team and was blown away by the talent that backs that company. If the pricing is right I will defintely choose these people to design my site.

I updated my index page. The original girl in that picture is Christina Aguilera. Not much was done to that picture. All that took place was running it through a filter.

A few links for today. This animation is awesome. And won't someone please bid on these.

I've determined that May 15th, 2001 is the day of the apocalypse. There is no justification for this, I just believe it will happen. The new Weezer CD will come out on that day. You can see the new album cover at their website as well as listen to a clip of the new single called "Hash Pipe." It's been 4 years since the last Weezer release and I am getting very excited.

Someone please bid on this. HACK THE PLANET!
