A few years back I attended a music event called Mayhem at SPAC. The things we do for people we love! Anyway, we had a really nice afternoon, complete with sandwiches from Cardona's, listening to a bunch of bands. The bands weren't really my genre, but, it wasn't bad until Slipknot started their set. Their … Continue reading Slipknot and Scaramucci

Films x 5
I've been on a bit of a tear recently when it comes to watching movies. I've seen 5 in the last couple of weeks, a combination of new releases and catching up on older releases that I hadn't previously seen.
