Today’s photo is of Brent Hinds of Mastodon moments before the band took the stage in front of tens of thousands of people at the Roskilde Festival in 2011.

Mastodon’s new album should be out in the next few months. I can’t wait.

Alex Rodriguez (New York Yankees) and Freddie Freeman (Atlanta Braves)

These two ballplayers are headed in opposite directions. Alex Rodriguez is literally out, as in sitting out the 2014 season due to a suspension for violating the MLB drug policy. Freddie Freeman, on the other hand, just signed a new contract and figures to be the heart of the Braves organization for years to come.

Shortly after taking this photo I took today’s photo as the train plunged down to the fjord below.

Immortal @ Getaway Rock Festival 2011

I would really like to get away to the 2014 Getaway Rock Festival this summer. Unfortunately, I will be nowhere near Gavle, Sweden in early August. Bands I would love to see who are playing the festival this year include Opeth, Volbeat, Dimmu Borgir, Arch Enemy, and Watain. Most bands haven’t been announced yet, but I bet there will be many more when all is said and done.

Volbeat will be playing in Medford soon so I will likely be seeing them.
