-I just heard that Michael Jackson is doing a series of concerts in London this summer, which has been dubbed "the final curtain call" ... hell, why doesn't he do a worldwide tour, I'm positive that he could still pack stadiums if he truly means that "this is it" ... I must confess that I've never, EVER, been to a concert in my life ... sad, but I've just never been passionate enough about an artist to want to go ... but if I did, number one on the list would be "The King of Pop", the best all-round performer of all time, Period! ... next one down the list would probably be Alicia Keys ... I would say Usher and Nas, but hoodrats and posers are in full effect at those shows ...
-come to think of it, in addition to concerts, and this may come as a shock to many, I've never been to a pro wrestling event ... I've gone to press conferences, autograph sessions and FAN AXXESS (sort of a WWE fair), but never a live event ... the reason why I bring this up, is 'cause I just found out Wrestlemania is coming up in a month ... looking back on things, I wish I'd attended Wrestlemania 18 in Toronto, word is that scalpers started giving away seats outside the Dome after the event had already started ... sad to say, but with my love for wrestling reduced to mere nostalgic flashes, it looks like I'll never attend an event ...
-as a Busta Rhymes fan, it's been a bit frustrating to keep hearing about his next album release being pushed back for the ump-teenth time ... it was supposed to be released last summer, if I'm not mistaken ... I know it was held up the first time because he was dropped by Interscope/Aftermath, but I wonder what the hold-up is this time ...
-whatever the case, May is shaping up to be a red-letter month, LOL ... Pacquiao versus Hatton (2nd) ... the release of Punch-Out!! (18th) ... and (hopefully, finally) Busta's album B.O.M.B. (24th) ...
-I just found out that Rock Band will be releasing a special Beatles edition ... Wow!, I grew up listening to them, as my father was a fan ... I can honestly say that I like their music (I just transferred by father's CD's onto my iPod), good meaningful, original lyrics, unlike that fraud Elvis Presley ... I did end up returning my Rock Band 2, but I'm definitely going to re-purchase it just in time for the release of this new game, on September 9th, or as advertisers put it 09/09/09 ... I'm sure my father would sing alongside me, when I play, LMFAO ...
-I've had my phone (the RAZR) for a while now, I'm getting the sudden urge to upgrade to something new ... iPhone or Blackberry? any suggestions? ... now I've never been one to buy into the hype of new gadgets, or feel the need to get the latest device upon its release, so I guess I would be staying true to this since they've been out for a while ...
-The way the media is playing out this whole Chris Brown/Rihanna saga is really getting annoying ... as if their music isn't annoying enough ...
-when the hell are they gonna release the 3rd-6th seasons of The George Lopez Show on DVD? ... I guess ABC axed any plans of that after George Lopez called them out following the cancellation of the show:
"TV just became really, really white again,"
"So a Chicano can't be on TV, but a caveman can?" Lopez told the paper in a diatribe sprinkled with profanities. "And a Chicano with an audience already? You know when you get in this that shows do not last forever, but this was an important show, and to go unceremoniously like this hurts. One hundred seventy people lost their jobs."
-Finally, a happy birthday shoutout to my #2 and #5 fave cousins, AVAD and Giggs ... AVAD is Zona's little sis, and someone I look at as my own little sis ... to me she'll always be that little girl that used to follow me around, I guess it's easy to see that I miss those days ... Giggs is someone who I've always looked up to as an older brother ... we're not as close as we were, which is understandable because he's married with kids (both love me by the way) ... probably also because I have no love whatsoever for his wife ... but he'll always be the older brother I never had ...
Peace!
