Normally, this would be where I post about this weekends events in the Tampa/St. Pete area but this weekend there is nothing going on in my world for a number of reasons:

  1. Last Sunday I tried to rip my arm off in a mountain biking accident and recovery has been a slow process. Wednesday night at the Shack*Shaker show it was killing me despite very little movement so I am gonna lay low in hopes it gets better.
  2. Also, ninebullets.net is getting a laptop upgrade! While I sit at home and self-medicate my arm I will begin the process of moving everything from one laptop to the other.

Crap reasons, I know. FWIW: I am going fishing tomorrow.

Okay, enough livejournal.

Yesterday I posted about the new Cake cd and included their cover War Pigs with the post. Which created an itch to hear the Faith No More version of the song. So I decided today would be a War Pigs day. Enjoy.

War Pigs - Black Sabbath
War Pigs - Cake
War Pigs - Faith No More
War Pigs - Hayseed Dixie
War Pigs - Sacred Reich
War Pigs - Tesla

That Tesla version is from the bonus disc of their new cd, Reel to Reel. It also contains a new acoustic version of Paradise. So, to get a little Flashback Friday on y’alls asses:

When I was a teenager my friend’s cousin or aunt or something (i do not remember the relation) came down from New York to visit. Holy crap, I fell head over freakin’ heels for her. I was in full-blown infatuation. When she was leaving I made her a mix tape and Paradise (Five Man Acoustical Jam version) was my big finale of the tape. For months after she left I pined over her and playing Paradise more times than anyone ever should…

Tesla - Paradise (Reel to Reel Bonus disc version)
Tesla - Paradise (Five Man/Autopsy’s Grand Finale version)

And for no reason other than a burning desire to close the post on a more butch note:

Butthole Surfers - Sweat Loaf
