Peace & Music News...

Sparks Of Insanity By Vinny "Bond" Marini Monday, November 02, 2009 9 Of Your Sparks


The Lewisburg Patriot Marching Band took 2nd in their grouping on Saturday. There were some 10 schools in their group, so they should be very proud.

I have quite a few photos but will share tomorrow, as there was some RUBY to be seen!





Peace Globes are done...well designed. There is still time for you to do one and participate this Thursday. Hope this works today...


As you may - or may not have noticed, we have not been doing music posts on Monday's for the last month or so.

Well, after the week of music when we were away on the honeymoon, and the overall lack of interest, I decided to take a break.

I do have a couple of new CDs I will be reviewing next Monday for y'all..one a Christmas CD, the other and CD by an band many of you will know.

Barbra Streisand’s album Love Is the Answer - hit No.1 on October 12th on both sides of the Atlantic- a first in her career. This is Streisand’s first studio album in four years - a collection of intimate jazz standards produced by Diana Krall.

Motion City Soundtrack are giving fans a holiday season treat this year when they spend three nights at Chicago’s newest venue – Lincoln Hall – in December. The band will be taking a look back at their seven year career when they perform their first three albums in their entirety over three separate nights – I Am the Movie on the 18th, Commit This to Memory on the 19th and Even if it Kills Me on the 20th. Tickets will go on sale on Friday October 23rd at 12pm and fans will be able to buy a three show pass for $49.99 and a single show ticket for $20. For more information you can visit the band’s web site HERE and the venue’s web site HERE

It was only a matter of time before Slayer's lyrics leapt off the printed page and made their wanton way to the visual medium. The band's discography is gorged with tales of mass murderers, serial sadists and drooling deviants of every stripe - vicious mental cases just begging for a cinematic reception.

Enter Metalocalypse director and big-time Slayer fan Mark Brooks who created a 20-minute DVD titled Playing with Dolls, a 12-episode video-graphic novel that will be included exclusively in Slayer's World Painted Blood Deluxe Edition, out November 3 in tandem with the World Painted Blood Standard Edition. Inspired by the songs on World Painted Blood - in particular, Jeff Hanneman's "Playing With Dolls" from which the horror short takes its title - the film blends elements of animation and still-photography into a visual style similar to that of a graphic novel. A trailer for the short has just been posted at www.slayer.net
The soundtrack for the Playing With Dolls short features clips from all 11 of the songs on World Painted Blood; in addition, the music bed for Episode #7 is taken from "Atrocity Vendor," a new song that is not on the album.
