I haven't had a normal blog for a long time, but I found my favorite local musician/artist Nicole Atkins on Blogspot, so I decided it would be nice to keep track of what I'm doing to avoid having to link my old old Livejournal when I make comments on her (and other) journal entries. Yeah, it lets you comment via AIM, too, but that failed for me.
Anyway, I was interested in if Nicole had a new album coming out soon and wound up finding this journal. I always think it's great when I find blogs for celebrities and others that I admire because it brings them down to Earth and helps alleviate the need to gossip about them. I remember a funny moment after a Queen & Paul Rodgers concert a couple years ago where I got home from the concert and Brian May had already updated his blog merely an hour after the concert ended. I wish more classic rockers were internet whores.
I downloaded Mr. Brightside on Rock Band the other day and using my awesomely almost-realistic Ion drumset I tackled it. That song is just great for training a new drummer like me on stickwork. I play on expert, but I do fail out on a lot of songs, particularly songs with extended quick stick work and crazy footpedals. Mr. Brightside is the first time I felt comfortable playing a quick drum beat, and it has major lulls to give you a rest between.
