It’s MAI thing, do what I want to do…

I’ve hit a writing bug – not because I can’t but because I keep forgetting or suddenly get lazy. This is what age does to you – in all aspects. You get lazy faster physically as well as mentally. As you can see, I’ve moved servers from Wordpress.com to Wordpress.ORG and on to Jacques’ RichSnail server. Thanks BIL! ;-) I now have more flexibility to mess around with css, style, html etc..etc…

The other day I watched the most excellent ANVIL: The Story of Anvil. It’s such a heart warming, hilariously sad and triumphant rockumentary. I think I’ve heard of the band ANVIL in passing but never really heard anything by them (back in my cock rock loving days). There are so many bands that once played to stadium packed arenas and are now rockin out to small clubs/pubs. True rock n’ roll spirit right there. The bromance in that movie made me all teary eyed too. ThereĀ  were times that it made me question the realness of the movie (ie – turning the knob up to 11…like really?) but in all excellent and highly recommended. It’ll tug at your heart strings regardless of whether you’re a metal fan or not. I have qued to watch Heavy Metal in Baghdad next – can’t decide whether it’s something to watch socially or alone.

Interview with the director of Anvil the rockumentary Sascha Gervasi:

And of course the trailer:

Next up on the agenda is to start a PHODCAST with Ben. The first “recording” will probably be complete rubbish … excellent. Stay tuned….
