1. At Disneyland they have hundreds of wild domesticated cats running around the park. They never come out during the day because there's too many people, but the reason they're there is to catch the mice.
2. Donkeys kill more people annually than plane crashes.
3. Assuming Rudolph is in front, the number of possible way to arrange Santa's other eight reindeer is 40,320.

Decyfer Down: Crash
So today i will probably introduce a lot of you to band that many of you don't know. This is a band that has toured with Disciple, Skillet and many others. There is a good reason for that as well..... cause they awesome.
From the small city of Morehead City, North Carolina they go my attention from their first CD End of Gray. It was an gamble buy since I had never heard of them, but it payed off. What makes this band so awesome is 2 simple things. One, they are a no fancy or frill band that just lets their lyrics and instrumentation do all the work for them. They play simple rock with a deep sense of grounding and power. Second and most importantly for me, vocals. For me, Singer Caleb Oliver made End of Gray a must buy. From the power in his voice to his tone was like butter. Going into Crash, Caleb left the band for personal reasons and new singer T.J. Harris was brought in. If you don't know T.J, he was formerly in the band Fighting Instinct. I was worried hearing that because Fighting Instinct was more a southern rock band than a hard rock one. Then I heard the single Crash and all my worries were gone. Ladies and gentlemen, this singer for me is one of the best I've heard. He adds soul and depth with the power that seems effortless.
In conclusion, I love this band. If you give them a chance, you will love them too. Buy this album and pick up the End Of Gray album as well and heck the Fighting Instinct album as well. ha ha

House of Heroes: The End Is Not The End
Today we got a band that brings the past and the present together in a mega mix. Grabbing influences from what some call, "The Greatest band ever" and apply their modern edge to make House of Heroes.
From Columbus, Ohio these rockers have brought the influence of the Beatles to modern rock. Signed with Goatee Records, they have a lot of amazing label mates to keep up with. With former artist like Relient K and Family Force 5 and current artist like B. Rieth and Ayiesha Woods, there is a lot of pressure to keep up. Luckily, House of Heroes have their own unique sound that separate them from an already diverse line up. With this CD you can tell the band are huge Beatle fans and what makes them so fresh. You get a since of vintage sound wrapped in an alt rock package. The vocals and guitars bring a edgy sound, while the lyrics bring a storytelling and depth not seen a whole lot lately. With songs like Baby's a Red, In The Valley Of The Dying Sun, and Ghost bring a deep story and imagery of each situation. I think that's really cool.
So if your looking for a new band to put in your already full iPod's, then check out House of Heroes. They bring vintage classics and modern gems together. Also be on the lookout for their Cover CD of the Beatles coming out this year.

Jonezetta: Popularity
I'm excited and stoked to present to you, Jonezetta. Take it in, and enjoy. haha well today's album review is one of my new favorite bands and I got to tell you i really loved this CD. The vocals, the instrumentation, the feel makes me want to dance.
All the way from Clinton, Mississippi Jonezetta has made a name for themselves by fusing together dance and alt.rock. While it has been done before and it is nothing new, what Jonezetta brings is super-duper catchy songs that makes you want to dance. Most all the choruses in the songs, you can learn by the 2nd time around. What this does is get you involved in the songs and leave with a grin while singing their great hooks. With songs like Popularity, Backstabber, and Get Ready this CD doesn't ever give in and makes it perfect party CD. Vocalist Robert Chisolm, does a great job in making his vocals both difficult and accessible and his tone is spot on with the style.
Jonezetta is a band that in my oppion should be more popular than they are now(no pun intended). Whats more is the message of the CD to stop selfishness and the mindset of wanting to be popular. If you love dance music or not, you need to check out this band.
