TiVo Gets SDV (Switched Video) compatibility!

This is the best news all day, heck maybe even all year!  What could make this announcement even better? It will be out in the first half of ‘08. Not a moment too soon as I am already missing channels due to TWC’s switched video roll-out on my TivoHD. Thank you TiVo for getting this done and taking care of your current customers! I will be ordering my second TiVoHD box as soon as you integrate said adapter.

Rockband Released…. Dorkdom ensues….

So what could possibly be dorkier than a man in his late 20’s walking out of Targetwith Rockband in his hands? How about 2, 20-something year-olds walking out with multiple Rockband bundles? Yeah in an effort to relive our high school fantasies  3 of us guys at work plopped down the $169.99 large for the privilege of saying “Thank you Cleveland! You guys rock!” Quick 1 second review is it’s awesome and I can’t wait to have some peeps over to rock it out! IMG_0032.JPG

Nightwish is amazing.

IMG_0025.JPG Nightwish at the House of Blues in Los Angeles. Pure awesome. It was totally sold out and thank God there was only one opening band. My main gripe recently is almost every show I go to  we have to sit through 5 lousy local opening bands and by the time the band I am there to see comes on I am asleep and/or bored out of my mind. The opening band was Paradise Lost. Really not a bad band overall solid but pretty much not much action on stage. Nightwish came on around 10:15 opening with “Bye, Bye Beautiful” and totally rocking it out. Annette the new singer is amazing and definitely fills Tarja’s shoes, in fact I would go as far as to say I like her much better than Tarja. A definite highlight was the performance of “The Islander” which was so spot on I thought it was lip synced! They closed the show out with “I wish I had an angel” which was well done and matched every hope I had of seeing Nightwish live.
