Everyone who knows me and follows these Morning Cups o’ Music should already know how much of a fan of Coheed and Cambria I am, it’s not even that really…I’d say that I’m more of a fan of Claudio Sanchez the lead singer / guitarist for the group.
While touring a few years back, Claudio took a 4-track and a drum machine and recorded his own solo album titled My Brother’s Blood Machine under the band name The Prize Fighter Inferno. Today’s track is one of my favorites off of that album, and consequently the only one that got its own music video, “Who Watches The Watchmen”. The whole album is this amazing mix between drum machine and acoustic guitar that just works, if you like Co&Ca, you owe it to yourself to pick up this CD…I only wish I could find it on vinyl.
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
