Well, that was it. The last Saturday of the Summer. School starts on Monday. And once again, I'm amazed at what a difference a year can make.

Anyway, I know its been a long time since I last made a REAL post, and as much as I'd love to bring you all up to speed... wait... no I wouldn't... because that'd be long and monotonous.

So instead, I'll just give you the rundown of my day today. I went to work at 9. Was very bored until 2, when I got off work. Went home... hung around for a bit... and then went to the Lynyrd Skynyrd concert with Zach and Justin, which, as it turned out, proved to be one of the highlights of my summer.

It was absolutely fantastic! There's nothing like hearing "Red, White, and Blue" sung live by Skynyrd themselves, while thousands of fans around you hold up their lighters. Nor is there anything like watching some chick go berserk with a Confederate flag during "Sweet Home Alabama". Or just hearing "Freebird", done live by Skynyrd, period. It was awesome, and it's made me realize just how spectacular of a band Lynyrd Skynyrd really is.

Well... that's really about it. Maybe things will get more interesting when school starts. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

Oh, and just for the sake of curiosity, I'd like to know exactly how many people even read this blog. If you read this message, and aren't completely lazy, leave a comment.

Au revoir.

Okay, in light of certain recent events, I've decided to list what music I do like, and what music I think sucks. See how I worded that? What I think sucks and what I like. So if you don't like it, guess who gives a damn? Not a whole lot of people. Maybe you. But certainly not me.

Anyway, without further adieu, here's as many bands (musicians, singers, whatever) that I can think of that I like.

The Good
The Offspring
The Ramones
The Sex Pistols
The Clash
The Beatles
Green Day
Weezer (pre-Maladroit)
System of a Down
Dropkick Murphys
Metallica
Nirvana
The Foo Fighters
Guns N' Roses
Billy Idol
Velvet Revolver
Pearl Jam
The Ataris
Dave Matthews
Blink 182 (anything before Enema of the State and after Take Off Your Pants and Jacket, though there are a few songs I do like from the latter.)
Lynyrd Skynyrd
ZZ Topp
Black Sabbath
Led Zepplin
Aerosmith
KISS
Radiohead (what I've heard. I don't think they're the greatest band ever, but I like them.)
Rob Zombie
The Misfits
Rancid
Alice In Chains
Bush

Alright. I'm sure there's more, and I'll probably end up going back and revising them... but now onto something I'm much more passionate about. My hatred.

The Bad
Linkin Park
Limp Bizkit
Avril Lavigne
Good Charlotte
Kelly Osbourne
Clay Aiken
Kelly Clarkson
Britney Spears
Justin Timberlake
The Darkness
Courtney Love
Korn
Creed (who broke up, haha!)
Drowning Pool
Puddle of Mud
Godsmack
Disturbed
DMX
D-12
Basically anything rap
Basically anything latin pop
If I tried to list everything, It'd be a long long list.

Keep in mind that everyone on the first list does indeed play their own instruments and write their own music, while a good chunk of the morons on the second list do not.

That's it. You don't like what I put up there? That's too bad. Keep your mouth shut about it, unless you're looking for an arguement.
