The Cliff















































































































Went for another early foggy hike up at Annadel and came across a cliff covered with hand-made pots, jewelry, and pipes.
It was some hippy circle
and it rocked.

Lasers, Pyrotechnics, different colored flames, Kirk Hammett solos, no songs off of Load, Reload or St. Anger, Whiplash and Seek and Destroy one after the other, free tickets.

High On Fire
































Went and saw High on Fire at the Great American Music Hall, had to use my shit camera phone but still got some good snaps. I also just finished my last final for this semester! I'm preparing for Italy pretty heavy style now and hopefully will be putting a show together with Body or Brain and Oh Apollo! next month as a kind of going away thing. I also have to choose between going to Tahoe or Bodega for New Years, they both sound amazing... guuuugh.

We'll see.

PS: Matt Pike is God.

This Semester...

has gone by unbelievably fast. I just finished my Italian final last night and it took me all of twenty minutes, and half of that time I was just reviewing what I had already written. I'm getting straight A's on my transcript for sure, maybe a B for Italian, but it was a hard class.

I leave for Italy in less than a month and a half. Shit's happening really fast.

But yea, the past couple of months have been insane. I've been rather busy and have only been updating my blog with pics from shows and whatnot, but I'll get better.

I can't decide if I want to make a seperate blog for Florence or not.... what do you, the viewers at home, think?

PS: OH SNAP!
