looks messy, eh? .... guess I will clean this blogspot a little bit, just not now

 some posts look like crap, and a bunch of links to other sites are dead

I uploaded some old stuff onto archive.org ,

after I got a dead hard drive back from data recovery.

Cost $500 to get these old shows, plus old death metal and KISS mp3 downloads, and videos.

Still am waiting for 3 more drives to get data recovered from, so maybe more old blogtalk shows on the way.

Wrestling Randomness -The Chaylites by Chay Lopez mp4's  

The funny / silly videos by Chay, and I think there were more, but these were the only ones I saved from youtube I guess.

I see a lot of the old Wrestling Randomness podcasts were also archived by others.

I was not on many of them, if you were wondering.

ECW receives a roar of approval  By BOB KAPUR -- For SLAM! Wrestling

-----------------------------

With a friend, we attended the first (and last) visit by the original ECW organization.
The ticket for general admission cost $32.25 (Canadian!) +, plus the service charge+tax.




Until I finally got to watch this recently (and I have been wanting to see it pretty bad for over 15 years!), I forgot how packed the place was back then, as even Americans traveled up here, to witness it.

The video is filmed by one of the men standing around the wrestling ring, and there are choppy edits between wrestlers' entrances and matches.

I was told  2 weeks later, a mutual friend The Beast From the East (no, not the real Bam Bam Bigelow, but the dude's nickname / IRC chat handle),
that only ONE match was televised on the ECW on TNN broadcast the next week.

(I ASSUME it is the same video? There were probably 2 or 3 or 4 video-cameras rolling the entire time).

here's a snapshot using VLC Player...
. if I had the actual dvd, could get a much clearer screenshot.
Undecided f I will buy a copy.

WHAT KILLED THE FWE?


Just finished reading this article right now, and suggest you also do it.---
WHAT KILLED THE FWE? THE QUESTION WE MAY SOON BE ASKING...AND HERE'S THE ANSWER  By Mike Johnson on 2015-03-16 http://www.pwinsider.com/article/92359/what-killed-the-fwe-the-question-we-may-soon-be-askingand-heres-the-answer.html?p=1

Since I can't really afford to support anything, but still feel I should, then my dollars for wrestling go to only buying SHIMMER DVDs. They earned my loyalty with consistently good merchandise and affordable prices.

Been waiting since the end of April , for 2 x 2 DVD combination orders (that is 4 dvd's). My bill said "SHIMMER Vol. 66 & Vol. 67 Two DVD Combo PRE-ORDER (ships during May)",  was to be hoped for released the next week.

It is almost August, so it is 12 weeks overdue.

In the past they have been a little late, so am not that upset yet, especially as VISA can always get my dough back, but starting to get frustrated as the next set of video taping in October will be for Volumes 76 & 77.

That is a lot of dvd volumes they are behind in reproducing for the fans.
Half the blame is due to whoever they hired for manufacturing the finished DVD's (dubbing discs, printing covers).

When you order from SHIMMER and if it includes a "pre-order", then all of it sits, until all of it is ready to go..
Unless you are not a cheapskate like me, and pay for each available DvD separately , apart from the per-ordered, to get quick shipping.

You know me,
sometimes I splurge, then sometimes I save.

I get twisted up over the stupid costs from USPS and CanadaPost when I know they keep carriers who will lose your mail, are irresponsible,  but never get fired.

anyways...
read the article I linked...

Makes me wonder about others selling off their Shimmer DVD collections, as there are downloads where you can get it all (or almost all) for free.

If I start selling off everything online at Discogs and eBay  then you will now that I gave up, and I finally do not care about anything, and don't care about others' survival.
If everybody wants to push for digital only, then fine. I will never send another physical package or letter out, strictly uploads and emails, and will just download everything for free.
Had too many  hard drives die on me and I lost all the music and videos on them. Everybody must be nuts to think I will pay for material that can disappear.

Besides fans asking questions about fags in the movie industry, why he no longer made movies, the famous match with Andre The Giant at Wrestlemania, etc;
Hogan also mentions about one time he was so depressed sitting at home, he was drinking a bottle of rum, taking Xanax, and had a gun to his head...
