On this day:
It's Not the Kill, It's the Thrill of the Chase...
I'm knocking at your back Door!!!... Ted Nugent couldn't have said it better and the one thing I really like about Ted is: He & his family eat pretty much everything he kills...
So why the Cryptic Title you ask?... Weeeeell, as of late I have been hanging out at YouTube catching on bands that I had never gotten to see live all those years ago and I ran across a few Deep Purple ones that I really dug and there happened to be a few studio ones of their comeback CD "Perfect Strangers", hence the song: Knocking at Your Back Door " and the lyrical snippet from it: "It's Not the Kill, It's the Thrill of the Chase"... After reading the Lyrics I got the impression it was about Oral Sex but then again it could be about something else tho I doubt it... hahahaha
So while watching a lot of vids I ran across a bunch from the California Jam around 1974 which you can find here at Youtube: California Jam 1&2... Lot's of good performances and one thing I noticed was the "Rainbow" backdrop on the stage that led me to think after watching all the Deep Purple vids from that show that that is were Ritchie Blackmore got the idea for the name of his next band "Blackmore's Rainbow or just Rainbow"... Yup I think that's where he got it from...
Since we're on the subject of bands, there's and interesting article over at The Herald Sun in Australia talking about AC/DC's latest CD Black Ice and how their release of Back in Black was around the time of high inflation and unemployment in the UK and now with this release the world is looking at the biggest global recession in decades... You can check the article here: AC/DC Success Coincides with Dark Economic Times in Britain...
...Ahh the Price of Success!!! hahaha
I found a couple of new gaming sites you may want to check out... First up is Crispy Gamer which I found out about over at GigaOM... Seems Crispy netted around 8.25mil in funding to try and take on the sites like Gamespot and IGN (that is going to take some doing for sure)... One thing that turned me off immediately about Crispy Gamer was the look of the site, for some reason I just can't get into that theme at all... The second is the Sci Fi Channels attempt into the gaming arena with Fidgit... Figit??? what the hell kinda name is that for a gaming site???... I'll let you all decide for yourself's here's the Linkies: Crispy Gamer & Figit...
More later...
