I think they need a room

I’m not sure if this is his awesome sense of humour or if he truly wants to make love to certain drum kits!

Best video of the year

How cool would have this been to be a part of?

On June 1 during a Green Day show in the UK, 60,000 fans sang Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” together.

I thought it was awesome to be a part of 14,000 people singing the national anthem in 2006 during their Oilers playoff run. This trumps all!

Another reason why America has it all wrong

Rock On The Range

Baran — Wed, 29 May 2013 21:59:09 +0000

I keep telling myself I am going to write a blog with pictures and words about my experience at Rock On The range from the other weekend.

One day I will. The pictures aren’t great, and really, neither is my writing.

The one thing I want to mention though, is that Americans have it right when they are doing festivals.

there is no shortage of people selling booze, the lineup to get food is no longer than 10 minutes and people don’t act like douche bags. Seriously, i didn’t see one person treat another random person like garbage the entire weekend. In fact, I saw nothing but people being nice to each other since everyone was there for the same reason, the watch some awesome, live rock n’ roll!

I have never been to Craven, but with all the stories I hear, i don;t think I ever want to. Fights a plenty, people acting tough, people not respecting others property and the list goes on and on.

Canada, more specifically us in Saskatchewan, are missing out on a rock festival. It could easily happen the way it does in Columbus. Book out Mosaic Stadium for the main stage. Have general admission for seating through out the entire stadium, both floor and seats, and have 2 side stages outside of the building. None of this watching a band on one stage, waiting a half hour for change over for another band to come out and just keep going that way. There should always be music playing on at least one stage. Hell, these should be camping to avoid all the trouble and mess that can cause and you just have people book hotels. Chicago does it, Columbus does it and so do a bunch of other cities in America.

So why can’t that happen in Canada? Why doesn’t it happen in Regina?

Seriously, I have no idea why it doesn’t. I was hoping you could answer those questions for me!

But I’ll make you deal right now! If I ever win the lottery, you can guarantee the following year you’d see a rock festival hit the Queen City!

How to really become a man

I was born with a penis.

When you are born with a penis, eventually you will become a man. But is it really a penis that makes you a man?

Yes, it is. But, there are many things that will make you a MAN.

Treating women right is always important on your way to becoming a MAN. This is something I’ve always done.

A few months ago I purchased a truck. Driving a truck makes you a MAN.

There are many other thing that will make you a MAN that I have done, continue to do and some things that I have yet to do that will bring more hair to my chest.

But this weekend, I took the one of the biggest steps when it comes to being a MAN!

I bought myself a Traeger Grill. That’s right, smoking meat is another thing that truly makes you a MAN!

Ribs on!

Smoked these bad boys for 2 hours and then cooked them for an hour and the final product was amazing!

If you want more tips on how to be a MAN, you should ask me!

More Man Of Steel

Baran — Wed, 22 May 2013 21:23:53 +0000

I really wanted to write my blog on Rock on the Range today, but after a sleepless night and a lack of pictures with me since I forgot my phone at home, I figured I’d save that for tomorrow!

So instead, watch the awesome new trailer for the upcoming ‘Man of Steel’ movie!

This is all that matters until it’s released

You don’t have to like him…

…but you have to admit, Thomas Mulcair’s joke was hilarious and probably above 99% of the other politician’s heads.

I’m a fan

I’ve always been a fan of Robin Williams. Whether he is in a serious role, dark role, Jumanji, or obviously a comedy role, he is a great actor. His stand up isn’t as awesome as it was when he was coked out, but then again, the best Rock N’ Roll was written when stoned or drunk.

Robin Williams has out done himself this time with one simple tweet!
