Ok, it's been more than an year since the last time I wrote something to my journal. I figured it's finally time to do it. Especially considering the fact we changed the big numbers a few days ago. Happy New Year, everyone! SURPRISE! - the world didn't end, lol.


Anyway, I didn't write but not because there was nothing to write about, I just never felt like it. Many things happened to me in 2012, perhaps too many, too many of them were bad. I can responsibly say this was the darkest period of my life. So far.
But enough about the crappy stuff. It's time for a summary, i.e. what I'll remember about 2012. What's more memorable than the live music events? Srsly, that's the way I measure time. Here's the full history of the year:

06.03. - TONY MACALPINE, Agent Cooper

LOUD FESTIVAL 2012:
02.06. - W.A.S.P., SYMPHONY X, BEHEMOTH, Lacuna Coil, TRISTANIA
03.06. - SLAYER, ANNIHILATOR, SOULFLY, MESHUGGAH, Asphyx

SOFIA ROCKS FESTIVAL 2012:
07.07. - TRIVIUM, Clawfinger, Heaven Shall Burn, Scar Symmetry, Sweet Savage

01.10. - MOONSPELL
19.11. - KREATOR, MORBID ANGEL, Nile, Fueled By Fire

To my greatest regret (and shame), I have to admit I missed a few other shows which I really would have liked to see. I missed Primal Fear, I missed Steve Vai, Exodus, the Kaliakra festival and more. I hate it when it happens like this. But sometimes simply the circumstances (and viruses) are against you.

BUT!!!

I got myself a new guitar. This happens to be the news of the year for me.

Beautiful, isn't she :heart: Made a few other pics, but I still can't get to process them all and upload them.


I suppose that's most of it, the rest I really don't feel like talking about. This year changed me, probably more than any other until now. I did things I shouldn't have done. I did things I never imagined I would do. I'm happy about some, sorry about others, absolutely apathetic about some, too. I don't regret anything cuz it's not worth it. But most of all, I grew tired of hiding, of wearing masks, of playing roles which don't suit me. I am what I am, so people will have to deal with it. Eventually.

What I am happy about is the art I managed to make in these last 12 months. I can say I learned a lot, although most of the progress is probably not very evident. Hopefully I will carry on with that.
Now, since I've got premium now, I would like to give some features of artists I like. They are talented, but underrated, they deserve much more little yellow stars and pageviews than they get, so I'll do what I can to help them in that direction.
Feast your eyes.

That's all from me for now (and presumably for a long period). Be well, open your mind and cut all the crap that's dragging you down. And keep it FUCKING METAL !!!
