A bit off topic today, but on my other blog I’m in the process of posting a week’s worth of photos from a Prom Dress Rugby game I went to earlier this month. You can check out the pics here.

While wandering around Amsterdam I found myself looking for a restroom in the Magna Plaza, a shopping mall of sorts. Finding a restroom wasn’t as easy as a mall in the USA, but the Magna Plaza was far more visually interesting than the vast majority of shopping centers in the USA so I didn’t mind. If you look closely you can see a store called “America Today”. I found it a bit ironic that you’d find a store wanting to show of its “Americaness” in a shopping center so much nicer than those in America.

Rob Cavestany of Death Angel on stage at Getaway Rock Festival 2011

6 minutes ago at 6 a.m. on 6/6 Death Angel re-released The Ultra-Violence, a CD which has been out of print for more than a decade (and sells for over $50 used). I purchased my copy 25 years ago so I don’t need another. The Ultra-Violence is still my favorite Death Angel release (and probably always will be), but all six of their studio albums are excellent.

Death Angel will be playing The Ultra-Violence, in its entirety, on tour this summer. Unfortunately, they aren’t coming anywhere near me.

I’m going to really miss Copenhagen this summer. Today’s photo is of the famous street Strøget.

Amsterdam 2011

Today’s photo was taken in basically the same spot as this prior pic. The main difference is I was looking in a different direction. That’s a lot of action for 11 p.m.
