No More Training Do You Require. Already Know You, That Which You Need

Another weekend has passed. Ready for another work week.

Saturday night we, saw Y&T in concert, which was awesome. Even Kip Winger (lead singer of Winger, best known for continuously being heckled by MTV's Beavis & Butthead) was pretty good with an acoustic set. Yesterday & Today was formed in 1972, so they were celebrating the 30th anniversary of their Earthshaker album, which they performed in its entirety, along with a bunch of other songs. The extended version of "I Believe In You," with amazing guitar solo work, was amazing and really made the night.

Apart from rocking out, I managed to install my Geforce GTX 560, we watched Fringe and the latest episode of Game of Thrones, and we went to the movie theater to watch "Thor."

The More You Sweat In Training, The Less You'll Bleed In Battle

by Rainier on May 7, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD

A little bit of a late start, but we have a busy day ahead of us, so we've already been at it for a few hours.

Chores to do, errands to run, and then relax a little bit before we head out to the Y&T concert.

Last night we watched Camelot, and while last week's episode was good, this one was a snoozer. Too much talking, not enough sword fighting. Damn sissy Arthur is boring us to shreds ...

Oh, and lots of APB playing, of course.
