Have Heart and Shipwreck in Tokyo

Well, here’s the thing, I was going to get video and pictures of both bands including some other Japanese bands. So I went to the first show in Kichijoji with my old ass camera. Filming was going good, I had a couple of songs from Silence Kills The Revolution. But on one of their last songs I was filming some kid crowd surfing when my camera got kicked pretty damn hard. Needless to say, it broke. But that’s okay I needed to buy a new camera anyways. So I did and I went to the last show in Shinjuku. But guess what? Of course! The camera I bought was defective and didn’t work. Motherfucker!!!! I did not get any photos or video of any fucking thing. So I guess I suck. I was pretty bummed. I was going to surf youtube for shit of the bands that where there, but I decided not too. What the fuck would be the point? I mean you’ll could do that any time you want. So fuck it. I will say that Shipwreck sounds awesome live (way better than any recorded stuff I’ve heard) and Have Heart is Have Heart. So they were awesome shows. The lineup for the last show was Endzweck, As We Let Go, Loyal To The Grave, No Choice In This Matter, Shipwreck and Have Heart. What a fucking lineup it was, great bands all around. The only downside to the show was the air conditioning was broken and it was like a fucking sauna inside. I had a chance to converse with a lot of the band members and they where cool dudes. I did buy a new camera today, and well I think I will have this one for a long time. I decided to spend a little more money than I initially wanted too.  So when Blacklisted, Strike Anywhere and H2O come through you should see some shit. They will be in Japan in October.

Killing The Dream And Ruiner In Tokyo

Killing the Dream had a tour with Ruiner in Japan I have some really good video and pictures:

 

Ruiner last show in Shinjuku.

Small clip of Ruiner last show in Shinjuku.

Alex, the Wyguy and me.
He was a fill in drummer for KTD. Check his band out Bastards of Young from Sactown. This picture was taken after the last show in Shinjuku. If you are into hardcore, this was a show to remember as most shows from Shinjuku are.

Fourth of July show

Ruiner the fourth

More Ruiner

This is my friend he took a picture with the bartender because she gave him a lighter.

Next is Killing The Dream:

Lastly here is a 30 min. video of Killing The Dream’s set in Tokyo at Warp. This was a show that was in the middle of the tour. It took me forever to get this on the net. I had to covert the dvd to avi and upload this shit through google video. I wish we got the last show on video. Watch for about six minuets in the show I do this roll on the pile on and go straight to the bottom. You can see my wife stage divin’ too. She is the Japanese chick close to the stage on the right side. She is the one wearing a gray hoodie. Enjoy:

Vigilantes

No love for no fucking pig. I just want to give all away and live the way I want to. Life of a solitude man. The only motherfucker in this place that doesn’t have to give a shit about anything than himself. No love for no-fucking-body. Just give it all away. I never understood why I have to care anyways. And the decisions and choices I still decide to make. I don’t have to take this fucking world or this goddamn place. I don’t like where this world is going. And I’m scared where we’ll end. And I never fucking liked where we began. The only thing that is clear is I’m still fucking standing here. When it rains it fucking pours… a weathered man, beaten soul and a broken fucking heart. Let it fucking pour! Move these walls inside out. Crash this party and wreck these halls. I’m not keeping this in anymore. We’re taking this to the fucking city. Pilgrimage homes take this town and make it our own. It doesn’t have to start everywhere. It starts here and fucking now. This world is going fucking down. I refuse to be one that goes with it. Either I’ll go straight to hell and watch everything fall apart on top of me. Or we’ll augment this place to the way it was suppose to be. Either fucking way… I’m going down my way. When sun begins to shine and the rain begins to clear, I’ll still be fucking standing here.

Introduction to Wolfeology and Prologue to Vigilantes

I fucking hate when myspace goes down there was some shit on there I wanted to move here, it’s fucking bullshit. Anyways, I just wanted to start posting my poems and blogs and other shit to a place where more people might read it. But, even more importantly I like writing and I need to do more of it. So this is why I’m here. I hope you enjoy my shit. If you do, tell me, if you don’t, fuck you! Naw, just kidding if you don’t, tell me too. I don’t care either way. I’ll enjoy the fact that more people might read something I wrote. 

So I’m in Japan, and it’s cool. Killing the Dream from Sactown came on tour with Ruiner. That was a fun tour. If you could have been to the last show in Shinjuku, fucking awesome! The only downside (if this is really one) KTD has a new guitarist and had a fill in drummer. So they didn’t know my two favorite songs. So I didn’t get to fuck shit up to Sick of Sleeping or By Now. But the fill in drummer is from my home town the “hub” and he is chill as fuck so, it’s whatever. The Japanese hardcore scene has some cool ass bands. As We Let Go, Silence Kills the Revolution, My Love, Endzweck, FC Five, Cleave ( fucking Cleave is awesome) just to name a few. If you like this type of music check these bands out, now!

Also, I will be posting pictures and some video of the shows later on in the week when I find the time.

On a different note, I just got finishing writing a poem earlier today. I had a lot of mixed feelings lately and this poem reflected it. It is called Vigilantes. There was (and still is) a lot of shit running around inside my head. I felt really angry, rebellious and a fuck it attitude when I wrote this poem. The first line, “No love for no fucking pig” is something I took from my friend. He created this shirt that had the line, “No love for no pig”. That line means what is means. Fuck police and fuck pork (although I like pork), it was kinda a tribute to my friend, because I knew he would read it. Because of recent events and decisions I have made; because of the way I see this country (America) and this world moving; because I sometimes I wish I was just completely and utterly alone by myself, fuck everybody else; because I will always love the things and people I have around me, that support me; and mainly because change needs to happen, this poem is about living the way you want to live, creating change and not falling victim to going down with the world. Because the world is going to shit.
