I f'n hate the Heat (both the weather and the team).

Currently listening to Moz for the past week almost exclusively.

The Crimson Cartel launch on Sunday.

The Crimson Cartel will be launching their record at Ten02 this coming Sunday. Be sure to show your support,watch the show, dance around and pick up a copy of their new record. Good line-up too.

The current: Red Sox slumping again but the first visit of the Yanks on the 100th anniversary of Fenway should be pretty good. Celtics clinching the Atlantic Division and looks primed for the playoffs.

Coron.

Just came back last night from an amazing trip from Coron, Palawan. Got to see and swim in awesome beaches, lakes and met some very nice people of Coron. The latter is a very sleepy town which serves as a take-off point in exploring the neighboring island of Coron. Surprisingly, the town of Coron is not in Coron island but in Busanga islang. Weird, huh? Also had a good time walking around town, drinking coffee and just shooting the sht. Life's good.

Currently listening to: Tampa Bay at Boston.

PS. Thinking of starting an Instagram account. Anyone who reads here uses it? Any good?

Darker shorts.

Yet another item in the aftermath of the Backtrack tour. Darker Half print on Champion shorts. Perfect for that morning jog while wearing a sweatshirt and running around the UP campus. Listen to the opening riff of the song 'Darker Half' and you'll probably start moshing instead of running. Good stuff.

Currently listening to: Stick Together 'Surviving the Times'

Simmer down.

Driving under the hot summer sun? Beat it with a good mocha frap. And chocolate donut to boot. Awesome show last Sunday at Ten02 as organized by Northern Territory. Got some new CDs and zines. Maybe its time to review them?

Currently listening to: Red Sox at Toronto, At Bat 12 application rules.

Bystorm 2012 Sampler.

Bystorm 2012 Sampler available later at Ten02. Get one and listen to three upcoming tracks from the 'Sumalangitnawa' full-length plus a cover of Biofeedback's 'Barney's REvenge' which was recorded during the BS/Pullin Teeth sessions.
