Megadeth Live @ Revolution Re-Cap

Last night on a rainy Thanksgiving eve, Megadeth was in town to tear the roof off club Revolution in Ft Lauderdale. Thousands showed up...in droves! It was a real solid show, however, the promoters were idiots to have such a huge headliner perform in such a small, tiny venue, WTF!? Even though it was probably one of the best shows I've been to in a while, it really sucked that it was wall to wall people, not to mention the fact that everyone there was over 6.8" tall hence major view obstruction everywhere you turn! You really had to scout out a good spot, however once my crew and I were strapped in, there was no turning back! Megadeth and Co. played a great set. New stuff off the 'Endgame' album was played along with all the proper classics, snarls and smart remarks! See below for a few pics. Check out the setlist here.

Great Marketing

Check out this eBay auction for some Campy cranks...Talk about a diversion! Makes you forget what the hell you were searching for in the first place! Anyway, the seller is obviously some college dude (see keg tap for sale) in need of some extra party cash, with plenty of pull for hot chicks! Be sure to check out his other items for more ummm, bike parts?

That Wall

When I was a teenager back during the early 90's and was still in high school, Miami Beach Senior High, this wall was my drawing board for my graffiti escapades. I remember owning that wall along with my old crew, Jason, Zach, Patrick and Guido. Every once and a while I ride my bike there and just sit there and visualize a younger me, there at that wall painting like the carefree teen I used to be. Wow, how times have changed. As you can see, it's still being painted by the new breed of kids out there doing/experiencing the same thing I did back in my days. Aaahhhh youth! How times have changed my friends.

Story of my life

My daily commute is a nightmare, this is why I ride a bicycle whenever I can. Driving in Miami has to be one of the worst experiences one could encounter in life. Seriously!












Notice the "0" on the MPH counter...ughhh.

EDIT: I will keep updating this post with various pics of the notorious mess that is Miami traffic.

NO FACEBOOK

Burger King Corporation's I.T. fucktards block nearly every darn website one can imagine. Makes my day at work that much more annoying! Surprised my Blogger is still accessible!
