Summer Slaughter, Randy free, and a new member of the family

Once again I have not been paying attention to my blog, but a lot has been going on over the past few months I'd like to get out.

The first thing I want to share with you all was my trip to Summer Slaughter in Tampa Florida.  Summer Slaughter is an extreme Metal Tour that gathers up all of Metals most brutal bands together, and terrorizes the masses.  This years line up was

1.  Cannibal Corpse
2.  Between the Buried and me
3.  The Faceless
4.  Periphery
5.  Veil of Maya
6.  Job for a Cowboy
7.  Goatwhore
8.  Exhumned
9.  Cerebral Bore
10.  Abiotic

I went with my high school friend Spencer, and my other friend Emily, and her boyfriend Matt, made a 4 hour drive down to Tampa, and jammed out.  I was there for Cerebral Bore, Job for a Cowboy, and Cannibal Corpse.  But the craziest thing was when Job got on to play, they found out that someone was going to kill them so they darted out quickly.  The crowd was confused and pissed off as usual, but then we were told that we were to evacuate the building.  Things got serious when the Police came, and I thought that the show was going to be canceled.  But thankfully the Police took care of the situation, let everyone back in, and the show continued.  And Job got back more pissed off than ever.  Overall, it was a great show, except I lost my Cerebral Bore shirt, and their Drummer was kind enough to have my mail Address if he ever found it which I thought was awfully nice.

And in other news, Randy Blythe was finally free from the Czech Republic.  After many day's of fighting for his freedom all that finally payed off.  To all those who have doubted me, and said I was sick in the head for supporting a murderer, Fuck you all.  How does it feel that you're wrong!  Still he has got to brush some other shit off of him before he is 100% free.

As for my everyday to day life of Mr. Atticus M. Wright, I have been focusing a whole lot more in school than how I did the past 5 terms.  More dedicated to my work, and hoping to pull for an A+ this term, and making my family proud.  My older brother after being dirt poor for the past 4 months after graduating college has finally survived his first day on his new job.  I have high hopes for him, and I know he's going to do phenomenal.  My little brother is in a private Catholic school and I feel sorry for him because my older brother went there and hated it.  But he admits that he likes it, but I know that in time he's going to despise it so much.  Also my cousin Nancy Helen gave birth to a baby girl 2 weeks ago of the 22nd of August.  Her name was Addison Kathleen Holt.  I find it weird because she's named after me, and I'm quite shocked and honored at the same time because it turns out that my cousin does care about me 100%.  And I have celebrated her birth by seeing Fear Factory on that night, and oh boy they did a helluva performance.  They even had Tool/Puscifer/A perfect Circle mastermind Maynard James Keenan as their celebrity sound guy.  I was starstruck because Keenan is one of my favorite vocalists.

Right now my Second summer term is almost over, I'am going to see the band In this moment the following day, and adding more shifts for my job to make more money.  One final thing, I have finally gotten out of the Stone age, and bought myself an Iphone 4.  I'm ticked that it does not have 160 GB as my 3rd Ipod, but I gotta make a living somehow.
