Details for Immortal Music 2012 plans!

If you are reading this, that probably means that the plans for 2012 have been posted. I just wanted to explain everything a little bit further, mostly to prevent as much confusion as possible.

   I'm thinking it'd be easiest if I explained day by day, rather than go with all the special things first.

I will be trying to post the news every single day, along with an straight of music every day. It'll be two hours on Saturday on Sunday, as long as I can swing it. Obviously there will be days where not everything gets done because I was either lazy or not near a computer, but I will try for sure to do things as much as I can.

Now on to the indiviual days, on Mondays I'll post anywhere between two and four album reviews, and play a game of Would You Rather. In case you don't know what that is, its a ridiculous but fun game where you ask someone two insane things that nobody would really want to do or ever have to do and they have to pick. Its kinda a stupid game, but also sort of fun. For example, "Would you rather lick peanut butter off a hobos foot or make out with a monkey?" If that sounds familar to you, that's because I got it from Zoey 101. There are no winners, so there'll be no prizes.

 On Tuesdays, I'm gonna suggest bands and songs to people. They won't always be bands you've never heard of, but it can still be fun to get the feedback, and its advertising for them. I'll also be playing lyric games. I see them all the time on pages, and how you play is the page admin (in this case, me) posts a song quote and whoever guesses it right or finishes the lyric properly first wins. The winner will get a picture request, or sometimes a graphic request.

   Wednesdays will be a little empty. I'll make graphics and every other one post a band biography. Anyone who's been on Immortal Music can tell I don't exactly like writing band biographies, but I honestly need to. So I am going to try to get that done, that means there'll be about two of those a month, which'll help a lot. If I managed to keep that up for a full year that alone will be twenty four a year. I think...math is not my strong suit, that's kinda why I'm a writer.

      Thursday is a little empty too, I plan on posting a lot of lyric videos, the news, music, and that's it. I know lyric videos aren't anything big, but what I'm thinking is I'll probably make one new one and share a whole lot more that are outstanding to me. They will not be part of the hour of music.

Friday I will post more album reviews, probably the same ammount as Mondays, two to four. I also will be posting music videos. I will just pick out some of my favorites, so something like that, and post them. Like the lyric videos, they won't be part of the hour of music.

  Saturdays will have the music news, an article about entertainment things (probably mostly Youtubers), random trivia. I haven't quite decided if I am going to turn it into a game, I post trivia and see if people know if its true or false, or if it'll just be random facts. It may be a mix of all of it. There will also be two hours of music every Saturday.

  Then on Sunday, there will be a special blog from me just saying whatever I want. I do these from time to time anyways, and still probably will, but I am going to try to make it a habit every Sunday. It could be on any topic, or even really no topic. I also plan on doing something that any 90's kid will probably greatly enjoy. I decided that I wanted to do an All That inspired 'Vital Infomation For Your Every Day Life." I actually was watching some Shane Dawson video when he mentioned Lori Beth Dimberg, the girl who did vital information. That was probably my favorite part of All That, and still is, so I thought it'd be fun if I tried to do the same thing. Its easy really, you basically just say anything that's good to do, and then something random that is not good to do. For example; "It is good to cover your mouth when you cough, it is not a good idea to cover your mouth with your baby sister when you cough." Or just something stupid and funny like that.

       So that's the plans, hopefully I stick to them and that you guys like the idea I have. I am open to suggestions, just leave a comment, and if its good, maybe I'll try it!

  Oh, before I go, I feel I should say this. My original idea was to do videos instead of blogs on Sundays, but my camera's audio sucks, so I really can't. Once I get a good camera, I am absolutely going to do that, but there's no telling when I'm going to get a good camera. Those aren't cheap!

Plans wrapped up in a blankie

So I am sitting here at my kitchen table wrapped up in a black blankie with pink skulls. Its techincally a throw, but I just like calling it a blankie. I am sitting with it wrapped around me because I am cold, my nose is running and instead of being a normal person and just grabbing the jacket I had hanging not two feet aware from my bed, I just walked into my room and grabbed this off my bed. Its not even that cold in here, but I just wanted to feel warm.

         I think I've re-caught (I don't care if its not a word, I am using it!) a cold that I had. Wonderful. Thank you, father, for giving it back to me. How very thoughtful of you. -_- Not really. Anyways, its a week to Christmas, and only two until the new year begins. I've been talking such hype about my plans for Immortal Music in the new year, but I haven't told you guys really much of anything I have planned. I've been trying to keep it all a surprise until December 31, but I just was informed that my friends are planning a New Years party, so I don't think I'll be home to post all the changes.

   Because I am thinking of that fact, and I just sort of want to post it all, I think I will be posting the daily plans today. Some things will stay the same, and there'll be more added. Its sort of my way of trying to get the page more active, as well as the site.

   Also a side note, I haven't gotten to upgrade the site yet to a pro account. I have been talking about this for months, and being Christmas time, and in the middle of tour season, I keep thinking of other things I want. One of them being seeing D.R.U.G.S in concert. The updates will come later.

Most anticipated things of 2012!

I was looking at Alternative Press' Most Anticipated albums of 2012, and it got me thinking. What do I want to see come out in 2012? They only mentioned albums and EP's, but what about all the tours? Not to mention, I am not looking forward to any of the things they mentioned, though I knew about The Used planning to release an album next year, and that is pretty cool. Feel free to read everything they had to say right here. Everything I have to say is vastly different.

      For one, I can not wait to hear more for D.R.U.G.S. Their first album is amazing, but one album is not enough. They have come so far so fast, and I am certain that they will amaze us all with their sophmore album, whenever it may come out. If you ask me, they are the best band to start this year.

    I also look forward to hearing the third Boys Like Girls album, whenever that's due out. I always enjoy their music, and as long as they do not drastically change, I'll still love them.

There's also seeing Falling In Reverse tour more, as they've barely gotten to lately. There's been a lot of issues trying to get their tours up and going, and I think that's a shame. I've heard Ronnie say he loves playing shows, so it sucks for him that he barely has. They played five dates on Warped this summer, and a few short tours with Eyes Set To Kill and others. I want to see them tour a lot more this coming year, and put out a new album! I have a feeling they probably will, seeing as Ronnie said he wrote over four hundred songs while in jail. They have material set for a very long time if they'd want.

      I'd love to see All Time Low touring more, and put out another album as well. Preferably, one very similar to Dirty Work. That is honestly, their best album. The true pop-rock sound works wonders for them, and I love it.

    Then there's Warped tour 2012. Bands will be announced soon, and dates are already out, but it is possibly the biggest tour for music. Everyone knows about Warped tour, and if you don't, you live under a rock obviously. There is nothing else quite like it, not here in America anyways. So far only one band has been confirmed for Warped, and that's You Me At Six. I saw them live, and they said they will be on next year's Warped tour while on stage. There's been rumors going around that Falling In Reverse will be on all the dates, on the main stage this year at Warped, and I have heard rumors that All Time Low and Yellowcard will be on the 2012 Warped. Whether that's true or not, I don't know. All Time Low has not been on Warped in some time, though they did play a few dates this year. I hope its true, I'd love to see All Time Low on Warped tour.

           I'd also love to see D.R.U.G.S, Black Veil Brides, The Ready Set, all return to Warped tour this year. I heard they were among some of the best at Warped that were not on the main stage, and I think that'd be kick ass. As a music journalist, I am thinking I'll go to Warped tour 2012 because its one hell of a chance to meet and really talk to a ton of people. Not even just the people in the band, but the people who work for the band. You can learn a lot from just them even.

  Here's a list of just some of the people I'd love to see on Warped tour 2012. Half of these probably won't be on there, but you never know.
All Time Low, Mayday Parade, The Ready Set, NeverShoutNever, Black Veil Brides, D.R.U.G.S, Artist Vs Poet, Avril Lavigne, Black Tide, Blood On The Dance Floor, Boys Like Girls, We Are The In Crowd, The Maine, Go Radio, Sixx.AM, Falling In Reverse, Escape The Fate, Drive A, Get Scared, Five Finger Death Punch, Glamour Of The Kill, Halestorm, Hell Or Highwater, Hey Monday, Hit The Lights, Life On Repeat, Lovehatehero, BlessTheFall, The Material, Modern Day Escape, My Chemical Romance, My Darkest Days, One Less Reason, Panic! At The Disco, Pierce The Veil, Picture Me Broken, The Pretty Reckless, Secondhand Serenade, Simple Plan, Sleeping With Sirens, Spill Canvas, The Starting Line, Valencia, Vampires Everywhere!, The Veer Union, We're All Virus.

There'd be more, like Art Of Dying, Three Days Grace, Shinedown, Adelita's Way, and a few others, but I know they'd never in a million years be on Warped tour Some of the ones I mentioned like, Five Finger Death Punch, MCR, and probably Black Tide wouldn't either. Ones like All Time Low, Mayday, The Ready Set, and others are plausable though. We're All Virus would be stoked to do Warped Tour, that'd mean they'd get to play shows out of the state of Florida. They're still a local band. I don't really know why I want NeverShoutNever! on Warped tour, I only like one song by him. I guess its because he's adorable. Superficial reason, I know.

   The number one thing I am looking forward to, however, is Three Days Grace fourth studio album. It has been completed since May or somewhere right around there. The release date, and title are still unknown, but I am highly excited for it. As many people know, they're my favorite band, and out of the three albums they currently have, they only have two songs I don't like. They're such an amazing band, so I can not wait to hear more for them.

So much to do!

  I want to apologize again, last night I got a little emotional on the Facebook page, a lot of you guys saw it, and some people responded. I appericate the ones that responded, and to all, I still apologize. I didn't mean to, it just sort of happened.

             Anyways, on to the normal stuff. I wanted to say I have been working on plans for Immortal Music and Music = Life. I believe I mentioned this yesterday, but I am still working on it. I'm planning set days for some things, and some daily things. I am planning on starting all this on Sunday, January 1, 2012. I won't tell you all what I'm planning yet, but I think people will like it. Or at least I hope people will like it.
 
              I think the page will be more active this way, and that'll be nice. Um...I just realized I have like nothing else to say, so I guess I'll go. Bye guys!
       

Wasting time

Once again, I have been wasting time watching Shane Dawson for hours on end. Normally, I try to keep track, but I have no idea how long its been. I'm guessing somewhere between two or four hours. I don't know, he's really freakin' addictive. I wanted to ask you guys though, would it be cool if I interviewed Shane Dawson? I keep thinking of questions for him, and I did find his email address, so why not? It'd be pretty fucking awesome. I think it'd be a good time, anyways.

       He puts me in such a random mood, though I'll admit he's made me cry like three times. One of which, he had me bawling. That was this morning. I'm in a good mood, so I won't go into detail. Let's just say, I watched one of his videos about his grandmother, who has now passed away, and I couldn't take it. It struck a nerve that I try to surpress a lot, but it also does come to the surface. Friends know the story, and do try to keep me away from the subject, because it puts me in a very dark place. Anyways, apart from that, I do really think he's a cool person. Many people are aware that I have been watching him like crazy lately. Not really because I am being an OCD fangirl or anything like that, its for a few reasons. One of them being that he is funny, obviously, or else I wouldn't waste my days watching his videos.

         Another reason is, if I ever do get to interview him, I don't think it'd look very good if I don't have a clue what his videos are about. I mean, where are you gonna come up with questions if you don't know the person's material? You kinda have to know it. So, um, I keep thinking of all these random things today, and I am thinking I'm going to start doing a lot next year. Like start making Vlogs or whatever, even though I really doubt they'll be popular. I just was thinking earlier that this year, while its had it's up's and down's has been a great year.

      I've gone to two concerts, soon to be three, met one of my favorite people on the planet (Max Green), saw three of my favorite bands this year, and got to meet one of them. Then this Friday, I'll be seeing and meeting another one of my favorites, Mayday Parade. I feel like I've been bragging about that, I'm really sorry, guys, if its seemed like I have been. I just feel so honored getting to do this. How many people get to say they get to go to a concert for one of their favorite bands for free? Plus they get to meet them, again for free, all because they showed great interest in the band as people for the most part? I knew it comes with the job, but its rare when people just starting out get to do this. I don't think people get how truely awesome that is.

       Oh, and quick announcement. I still don't have the money for the upgrade for Immortal Music, but I am hoping to get it for Christmas. My grandpa, most years, sends me about $50 for Christmas, and if he does this year I'll use that to get the pro upgrade for the site. It'll last a year, so I am just hoping next year I'll have the money to upgrade again, or else...well I don't know what the fuck I'll do. Once I get that I'll stop posting blogs here.

           I'm gonna wrap this up, but seriously, tell me if you like the idea of me interviewing Shane Dawson. Even if you don't, I probably will still try. Also, if you want, think of some people you'd like to see me interview. Comment on that shit. :) Bye, ya'll.
