is Vegetarian even a food choice?

Lately, I've been thinking about becoming Vegetarian. It's a brilliant idea of being one with nature plus I gets you lean. For example, Prince. He's a vegetarian, and he was given the title of "World's Sexiest Vegetarian". Bill Clinton did it, Paul McCartney did it and I'm pretty sure Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie did it as well(becoming vegetarian, not.. you know). It's a good way to stop slaughtering animals I guess. In fact, I am typing this blog, I have a bowl of seasoned tofu next to me. BUT then I remember. The good times I have with chicken. MMMM, chicken. The tender, juicy delight of a meat called chicken. Barbecue, Ranch, Lemon Pepper, Gold Rush. I'm listing the items on Pluckers by the way. It's a hard choice, a ying and yang deal for me. Should I become a Vegetarian to become more Lean and healthy or Should I stay with Chicken to improve muscle mass and strength? I'm going to have to go with.. chicken. Too many good memories to let this go to waste. Gotta enjoy life to the fullest. Don't let a decision come into conflict with you. This is the moral of the story (Blog).

Late For Meeting

Do not judge base on the thumbnail of this video. It is nothing bad, just really weird. I would consider it family-friendly at least. No explanations are necessary or needed when it comes to this video. I just know I had a hard time not laughing when I saw it.

Abbey Road

Many will recognize Abbey Road even if they haven't listen to the album at all.
"Abbey Road? You mean the picture where four men with awesome beards (okay, three with beards and one with no shoe on) are walking in sync to their destination?"
This album cover has to be the one of the most historical album cover of all album covers known to man.

And since then we are given endless amounts of  parodied and recreated versions of the album cover such as:

And

But enough about the album cover. Let's talk music.

I wasn't joking when I said "let's talk music".
This album is SOOO GOOD. All jokes aside,you have to take a moment (specifically 47 minutes and 30 seconds)  to listen to the whole thing. It would be considered UNCONSTITUTIONAL if you dare skip any song of this album. You have to sit there and listen to it all. But for the sake of time, I'll give you an example of what music needs to be in the present.

Listen to Paul McCartney's Vocals shredding up to perform this song. It's crazy good. The raspy sound is either giving you three signs: 1) you naturally have a raspy voice 2) You are doing weird with your vocal cords and 3) You smoke a lot. For Paul's case, it has to be 2.  I recommend listening to the whole album if you get the chance.

Frank Vignola

Frank Vignola is a CRAZY!!! guitar player. I was introduced to Frank Vignola in my music theory class when we learning about The Classical Period. Frank Vignola does a nice rendition of Beethoven's 5th Symphony. This made me wish to play guitar at a younger age so I can shred like him. He's worked with artists in the 1980s such as Madonna, Ringo Star, and Leon Redbone. The best Jazz guitarist. Ever.

Jimmy Page

A legend in Guitar History, A Idol to many who play guitar, and Probably one of  the longest hair I've seen on a guy - Jimmy Page. Well, that's the end of the blog. Nothing to say here.

AHHH just kidding. I love Jimmy Page! Let's get that right off the bat.  If he ask me to jump in a pool of Angry Alligators, I would probably do it. Sike. But Jimmy Page is the greatest guitar player in my opinion. He's so versatile in music and that's such a great thing to have. For example, in one of his live performances, he preforms Chopin Prelude No.4. For those who don't know who Chopin is, he is a composer in the Romantic Period(roughly 1770-1845). It's a great cover/homage to Chopin with a rock and roll twist.

I recommend skipping 2 minutes in the video since the first 2 minutes is him preparing.

It Might Get Loud: Jack White

Jack White has to be one of my many inspirations to write. The reason being that once I saw the music documentary "It Might Get Loud" with him, Jimmy Page, and The Edge, his moments in the movie just stood out. Maybe because he kind of acted like a jerk, but his ideals of a songwriter is great. I remember him saying "If you don't have a struggle, you have to make one up". That line stuck with me from then on. Though I do recognize him as a inspiration for me to write again, I do not listen to his songs. The only song I heard from him was "A Seven Nations Army".  The movie he was in was great though. I highly recommend watching "It Might Get Loud" if you are a huge guitar fan, or a huge fan of any of the three guitar players in the movie.

Kanye On Sway in The Morning

Kanye. Ye. Yeezy. Yeezus. No matter how many names he has, we all know who he is but it's the thing we describe him as are different. Some people call him talented, others call  him "a Jackass"(-Barack Obama). And he's probably one of the notorious figures of rap history.

About this video, it does include a lot of cursing, screaming, and Kanye saying "you ain't got the answers".  Sway was trying to ask Kanye about fashion products and when he tried to give Kanye some advice,  Kanye flipped. My words can't guarantee how funny this video is so click it with your own risk.

Dazed And Confused

A great movie and a heck of a song. I remembered being introduced to Led Zeppelin doing a recorded performance in guitar class a year ago and my first impression of them was "Whoa, those are some killer vocals". In their song "Dazed and Confused", it begins with a bass guitar with a catchy hook(tune/riff?) and then BAM! Robert Plant sending a strong message through voice. You should also see their live performance when Jimmy Page uses the bow on his guitar. Pretty insane.

WAR!

War is not a good thing. It's kind of obvious. HOWEVER, the music is great!

"War" is orignally written by Norman Whitfield for The Temptations. The Temptations had smooth vocals and delivered a anti-war message back in the 1970s. Motown Records hesitated in releasing "War" as a single and IN CAME EDWIN STARR. He had this quality of strength, dramatic and INTENSE sound to his voice.You might recognize his version of "War" from "Rush Hour" where Jackie Chan's character Lee attempted to sing it.There is also a Bruce Springsteen version that delivers even MORE POWER("PO PO PO PO PO POWER!"-Terry Crews). I favor Edwin Starr's War personally because I grew up listening  and loving Rush Hour.
