Windows 7 Phone!

So I just signed up to win a HTC Mozart Windows 7 Phone, I jumped at the opportunity to enter this contest.

Why? Because:
A) It's a free phone on the Telstra Next G network, which is an amazing network.
B) It's a HTC, I simply love their phones.
C) I have heard nothing but positive things about the Windows 7 phone OS!

Sure there is nothing wrong with my current Nokia E51 on the Telstra Next G network, and I think it's an amazing handset. But thing is it doesn't suit all of my needs, I can't easily browse the internet to check my Facebook or Twitter. It's got crap all memory I mean a 512MB memory card ain't much, especially when you have 65GB & counting of music & twice as much in video & movies. Oh and to mention I can touch type so a alpha numeric keypad is kind of a drag for me, when I would much rather a QWERTY keyboard to type with & especially since I like using full grammar and spelling with my text messages, so my friends can understand what the hell I am trying to say to them.

I reckon if I was one of the lucky people who got a chance to receive a unit to review I would most likely give it the most thorough working out of all the other lucky 24 people. What's even better is, is that the review periods is when the new World of Warcraft expansion from Blizzard drops on December 7th and I am hoping to go to a midnight launch for the expansion, so I could tweet to my hearts content & even Facebook about the event.

All & all, either way I am looking forward to the Windows 7 phone here in Australia, after all Microsoft did have Isaiah Mustafa (Old Spice guy) endorse it at a release recently, and if Windows 7 phone is good enough for Isaiah Mustafa it is good enough for anyone!

and with that I am off! I hope to be able to be writing a blog from my shiny new HTC Mozart on the Telstra Next G network in the near future!!!

Dope, SOiL & MM9 Australian Tour!

I'm back to put it in motion, I'm back to tell you no lies, Sit back and sip from this notion, I'm back to put it in drive! I just needed to use the opening line of "I'm Back" by Dope XD

I have returned now from my epic 3 day adventure with my mates;
It started out shopping Thursday night and seeing Avatar in 3D!!!

Friday I was in Brisbane all day and most of the night, I went and saw Dope in a small club in Brisbane review will be posted below!

and today I ended up at a PC store with my mate then his place where we took apart my PC and cleaned it out it now looks beautiful ^___^ dust free rofl, Tombstone you'd hate how much dust I let collect man haha.

and now my review or whatever about Friday nights gig! I copy and pasted from what I pasted on the Dope forums so just pretend you're a fan ;D

Quick run down of who Dope consists of;
Edsel Dope: Vocals & Guitars
Virus: Guitars and Backing Vocals
Tripp Lee: Bass and Backing Vocals
Angel Bartolotta: Drums

Tim King: Current touring Bass player and Backing Vocals (awesome player!)

Let me say this every band FUCKING ROCKED! I really loved all the bands even though I knew shit all of MM9's and Soils material but I knew EVERY word to Dopes songs :D So Dope lost all their fucking gear on the flight over Angels kit, Edsels guitars and Amps, Viruses Guitars and Amps and Tripp XD I really hope the guys get the stuff back, Soil was kind enough to lend them all their gear for the shows and their bass player XD

So Tripp hasn't left Edsel explained the sitch! As Edsel said they "lost" him at customs he was all "I can understand how you lose your gear on a plane, but how the fuck do you lose a band member!!" It fucking went off!

I met Angel and Virus, Angel hi-fived me!!!!! Me and my mate were standing outside the club and I randomly turned around and Virus was sitting down in front of the dodgy kebab place eating some pizza which he seemed disappointed in, so my mate ditched me to go width draw some cash so I would be more tempted to speak to Virus.

I said hey to Virus he said hey back and then he went back in the Club, 5 minutes later him and Angel walk out and I was all "ANGEL!" and he hi-fived me and Virus was all "Hey man" I was so fucking happy, Virus is just like a god to me when saw he was behind me I was literally shaking but I was all cool to go upto Angel and act like him and I knew each other rofl.

Edsel loved us, he asked mid show if anyone wanted to smoke Dope with Dope and then asked if anyone had a joint, some dude passed him one and he then lit up on stage and started smokin it, that was awesome. Then later on some dude was waving a lighter around and Edsels all "Dude I didn't come to Australia to be lit on fire, I can have that done back in Chicago" LOL

Then he thanked us deeply for spending our hard earned cash to come see them play, he seemed pretty touched. Also Australians are allowed to illegally download their tunes since they have no record label here and we can't get their cd's very easily =[ He was all "You're all descended from a bunch of crooks, i'm cool with you guys stealing our music and shit!"

Then there was the dude who gave Edsel his bands cd in a brown paper bag and he was all "Back home there's 2 things that come in a brown paper bag, Drugs and Porn" he then handed it to Virus and was all "Dude listen to this." haha.


This is the set list basically in this order, I think the meledy was maybe 1 song earlier, I was just too caught up in the moment too remember the order really.
1Violence
2 Survive
3 Bring It On
4 No Way Out
6 Die, Boom, Bang, Burn, Fuck
6 Now Or Never
7 Rebel Yell
9 You Spin Me Round
9 Bitch
10 Addiction

In addition, I would definitely go see Soil and MM9 again if they came near me, I loved their stage presence and music. It's like with Slipknot I walked away as a fan of Sydonia the Australian band who supported them on the Australian tour.

Australian Gamers and their stupidity.

I'm not sure how many on here are familiar with the computer game "Left 4 Dead" but recently it's follow up "Left 4 Dead 2" was refused classification in Australia over it not applying to the Office of Film and Literature Classification's guidelines.. Fair enough right?

Well according to every pasty white fucktard under the age of 18 that owns the original and wants the sequel is complaining and about this and how Australia needs a R18+ rating for games. But wait, wouldn't an R18+ rating DENY your pasty white ass from even purchasing the game? I believe it would dumbass.

Considering all Australian retailers selling games with a rating of MA15+ have to legally ask for ID if you look like a teenager.

So the dumbasses under 18 protesting this would have no legal way of obtaining this, and by law it is illegal for anyone over the age of 18 to supply a minor with content with a rating of R18+ or higher in Australia. So they're still breaking the law.

In the end Left 4 Dead 2 was resubmitted by Valve with an edited version, yeah so what I say.. Well these pasty white dumbasses are up in arms about this because there is less gore. Oh no less blood and bodies fade away after a time period, nothing unlike the original.

If they think game play revolves around decapitation and amount of blood and bodies they can fill the screen with then they have major issues and should be kept away from a computer and the general population all together.

I buy games for the game play and story line not how much blood I can get out of someone I just killed or see how many pieces I can chop them up into.

I do agree there should be an R18+ for games because it would allow for things too obtain a higher classification then they already have.

I think the Grand Theft Auto series needs it due to just about every fuck wit under the age of 18 that plays the games tries to think they can imitate it some how.

The amount of morons under the age of 18 that inhabit this country pisses me off.

and don't get me started on their parents who are just as bad and stupid.

Back on track!

As I found out last Friday that Alice Cooper had been cancelled for the Gold Coast show and I was extremely devastated. Well I think I found out why it was cancelled, I can thank TSS (The Southport School) who wanted to have their year 12 formal that exact night.. Just cause mummy and daddy pay 80+ grand per year to let little Johnny board and learn there doesn't mean they have control on saying whether a concert happens or not!
But I am seeing Alice on Saturday the 22nd of August at the Southbank Convention and Exhibition Centre! Should be good!

Also AC/DC has sold out for Brisbane sadly both shows on the 25th and 27th of February 50,000 seats at a night there it's a fair few to sell out within 30 minutes of tickets going on sale! Also apparently Sydney over sold within 10 minutes and AC/DC were forced to have another 2 dates added! This happened in just about every state if you have tickets consider yourself lucky!

Quite pissed off

I just read on the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre's website that Alice Cooper's show there has been canceled, this has really annoyed me since bought tickets a week ago and the person who I bought them with has not informed me when he should've, cause this announcement is several days old. So now I might see about going to *shudder* Brisbane to see him.
Don't get me wrong i'd do anything to see Alice live, this guy is a hero to me for what he has done over the years for Rock N' Roll.. Just I fucking hate Brisbane.

My 3rd time being able to go see him and it gets fucking canceled on me, this doesn't make me one bit happy or impressed.
