R.I.P. Reed Mullin

Reed Mullin, drummer of Corrosion of Conformity (aka C.O.C.) has died at the age of 53.  The third drummer to die in January 2020.  Geez, January in 2020 has not been great to drummers.  It seems like my blog has turned into an obituary blog.  It's not an obituary blog.  I don't intend it to be, I'm pointing these deaths out since they are noteworthy and/or these deaths have affected me.  I'm sure others might like to read how I feel about these peoples' deaths.  For three consecutive days, I have reported deaths.  For more on his death, click here.

R.I.P. Kobe Bryant and Gianna Bryant

I am sad to report not one death, but two deaths.  I am absolutely saddened by their deaths.  They were involved in a helicopter crash with other people.  We have lost incredible people this month.  I am mostly devastated by this one the most.  Kobe Bryant is one of my favorite athletes of all-time.  Him and Shaq were the reason why I became a fan of the LA Lakers.  This makes no sense to me.  I'm with Lebron James on this one, it doesn't make sense whatsoever.   Gianna Bryant died with her father Kobe.

When I first came across an article about his passing.  I was hoping it was not true.  I was hoping it was a major hoax.  Unfortunately, that was not the case.  My condolences goes out to the Bryant family and to all affected by this.  For a better source, click here.

R.I.P. Sean Reinert

Sean Reinert has died at the age of 48.  You may read it more here if you want.  I am shocked and saddened by this.  It's a highly unexpected death.  Interestingly, I share a birthday with him.  We have lost two prog rock/metal drummers this month.  For those who don't know, he was the drummer of progressive death metal/rock band Cynic and he was on Death's Human album.

You will be missed by many.  My condolences to family, friends, fans and anyone else affected by this.

Expect more posts this year

I will posting more than ever before in the year 2020.  I started this blog circa 2008 and I never really went that far with it.  I was going to quit this for good and then decided to revive it in 2019.  I will be posting reviews, rants, thoughts, etc.  I doubt I'm going to post everyday.  It would be too time consuming and I'm not that into keeping up with a blog.  I'm sure there are people who write everyday in their blogs.  I'm most likely not going to do that.  I'm sure they do it for money.  I really don't have any interest in monetizing with my blog.  I may consider it.  For now, no.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all reading this.  I hope 2020 for you will be an awesome year.  I have an extremely optimistic and positive outlook for 2020 and the rest of the 2020's.  Personally, I'm happy that 2019 and the 2010's are over.  The 2020's are promising and I know this decade will be better than the previous decade.  I hope it is better for you.  I know many people were unhappy with the previous decade.  I was unhappy to a certain extent, but there were some awesome moments.

That's it for this blog entry.  I have nothing more to say.  I know I will be keeping up with this blog through the years.  I'm glad I started posting again.  I wish you all a happy and prosperous 2020!
