happy metal friday :: 2/6/09

.

Today’s Metal Friday is brought to you by a truly hardcore treat- the sugar cookie.

Sugar Cookies are my favorite dessert. They rock hard. Especially when sandwiched around a thin layer of whipped icing. Yummm-RAWR!

You are likely wondering how the heck Sugar Cookies could be metal, right?

Wednesday evening a close friend of mine stopped by with a box of Sugar Cookies to cheer me up. He was complaining that there were only 9 cookies in the box because the bakery was almost out. What an atrocity! Only 9 cookies instead of a full dozen.

Awhile after he left I received the following text message:

“9 is an inverted 6…there are 3 sets of 3’s in a 9…3+3 is 6…9 sugar cookies that bear the mark…the number of the beast…6…6…6…most metal sugar cookies evah!!”

See? Metal.

I am off to enjoy a Sugar Cookie with a most Metal cup of coffee.

Happy Metal Friday!

I am very excited about the upcoming Scion Rock Fest coming to Atlanta next month! The band list keeps growing and is nothing short of impressive.  Best part- the show is absolutely FREE.  Tickets can be found at record stores around the city but are limited and only a set number will be allowed through the doors.

Track down some tickets and get yourself to Masquerade early or you’ll miss out on one hell of an event!

Neurosis - Locust Star

Kylesa

Baroness - Grad

Zoroaster - Bullwhip (Atlanta’s Own)

Hope to see you there!
