To Be Or Not Be Alone | DCP Spring 2022
Instead of a weekly update on my Disney College Program, I’m going to focus on one specific day because that’ll be easier for me. Plus, it’ll be more fun for you guys to read about my time in the parks, rather than the unpredictable guests I encounter at work! On Friday, June 10, 2022, I… Continue Reading →
Martin Popoff’s ‘AC/DC: Album by Album’ Book Was Very Intriguing | Book Review
Who knew that I would do a book review for this blog? I used to hate reading back in elementary school, but I started to enjoy reading in high school, and then sometime in college, I got sick of reading again. But since I have a huge YouTube addiction, I thought that reading would be… Continue Reading →
You Can’t Get Along with Everyone! | DCP Spring 2022
On Sunday, May 15, 2022, I worked from 2:15 to 10:45 p.m. and it was a stressful day, for the most part. I cleaned the toilet and shower in the bathroom, so that was good. The day started off decently when a nice lady, who was the mother of another DCP participant, gave me a… Continue Reading →
Reflections of the Past | DCP Spring 2022
On Sunday, May 8, 2022, I had the day off and took full advantage of it!

I thought Mother’s… Continue Reading →
Everything Is Not What It Seems | DCP Spring 2022
Sunday, May 1, 2022 was another well-needed rest day. I used the time to catch up on my WordPress friends’ blog posts and what good is reading without some music? So, I played Judas Priest’s Rocka Rolla (1974) and Angel of Retribution (2005), Deep Purple in Rock (1970), and Queen’s News of the World (1977)…. Continue Reading →

Is It Time for Bon Jovi to Retire?
I’m going to put a pause on the Disney College Program blog posts to talk about something that’s been trending in the music world recently (at least in my opinion). The American rock band Bon Jovi kicked off their 2022 tour in Omaha, Nebraska at the CHI Health Center on Friday, April 1. Unfortunately, they… Continue Reading →

What a Rush! (Florida Trip from 3/10/22 to 3/15/22)
On Wednesday, March 9, 2022, I left for Florida at around 10:48 p.m. The first flight was about five hours, so I watched two movies, Ratatouille (2007) and Couples Retreat (2009). We had a layover in Los Angeles and that flight was about four hours. However, our gate was delayed due to bad weather, so… Continue Reading →
Music Lovers Need to Give Skid Row’s ‘Subhuman Race’ a Chance! | Album Review
I can’t remember when I watched it, but in late June 2021, The Contrarians released a new YouTube video titled, “The Contrarians Patreon Zoom Chat: What is a Contrarian Album you would defend to your last Breath!?” Someone mentioned Skid Row’s Subhuman Race (1995) album and I’ve wanted it since. I was even considering getting… Continue Reading →

10 Cursed Songs from ‘American Idol’
I’ve been wanting to do this post for a long time because as a life-long fan of American Idol (2002 – 2016 and 2018 – present), I’ve noticed that some songs are cursed. In other words, if the contestant sings a certain song, then they get sent home! I don’t know why that’s the case,… Continue Reading →
Judas Priest’s ‘Firepower’ Has A Lot of Songs, But Most of Them Work | Album Review
On February 11, 2018, Judas Priest announced that guitarist Glenn Tipton was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. Tipton was first diagnosed with the disease in 2008. Less than a month after the announcement, the band released their 18th studio album, Firepower (2018) on March 9, 2018.

Ever since AC/DC released their music video for “Through the Mists of Time” back in late September of 2021, I’ve wanted to do a post about my top 10 AC/DC music videos.

Scott Travis Brought the Intensity Judas Priest Needed for ‘Painkiller’ | Album Review
Judas Priest’s Painkiller (1990) album is the first to feature drummer Scott Travis, who replaced Dave Holland in 1989. It is also vocalist Rob Halford’s last album with the band until Angel of Retribution (2005). I never realized how common it was for band members to leave and return to the band years later. It… Continue Reading →
