I recently had the privilege of seeing Deftones live in concert for the second time in my short life. My first ever concert was seeing Godsmack with Deftones opening for them in 2001. At that time the only songs I knew were Change (In The House Of Flies) & My Own Summer (Shove It) and that show was my gateway into the ethereal & brutal music of the band. This time I knew every song as I ...[Read More]
Since the purpose of this Blogathon is to raise money for Chi Cheng, bassist for Deftones, it’s only fitting that a post be made about their music. The Deftones have been around for over 20 years. Starting in 1988, I was only 6, and while, sadly, I wouldn’t learn about them for many years to come, it was well worth the wait.
October 26th is looking to be a pretty busy day in the gaming world. Not only is Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II available that day, but so is Rock Band 3. Over the past weekend, at San Diego Comic-Con, fans of the hit Harmonix/MTV franchise were given some details.
Yesterday, Chris and I went on to Central Valley Buzz to promote our site and help spread the word about our Blogathon fundraiser for One Love for Chi. Since we haven’t been on anything live in awhile, I was a little anxious, but I think we did a great job. For those of you who were unable to tune in, the repeat already aired early this morning, but I can give you a rundown of what went on. ...[Read More]
I have been a fan of Deftones for over ten years now. I was introduced to them by My Own Summer (Shove It), Back To School (Mini Maggit) & Change (In The House Of Flies) being played on the radio, but the day I decided to buy White Pony was the day after I saw them open for Godsmack in 2001 (my first concert no less). The band, Chino in particular, has since then had a major influence in my mu...[Read More]

Hello there World of Meh! readers. Last month I told you all that we would be doing the Blogathon again this year. I also hinted at what our charity would be. I did get a couple of guesses, but nobody got it right. With sign-ups officially starting on July 1st, I figured I should let you all in on who we have chosen this year. Think you know who it could be? I’m proud to announce that this y...[Read More]
The Crow was an amazing movie. This would also be the last role for Brandon Lee. Unlike most other comic book movies this one stayed true to it’s original form. It was dark and gritty, the soundtrack was fantastic, and it really sucked the viewer into it’s world. I remember seeing it the second day it came out in theatres. I was in 7th grade at the time and I was in awe throughout the ...[Read More]
