Currently I’m listening to:
- Piece of Mind by Iron Maiden (1983)
- Painkiller by Judas Priest (1990)
- Divine Intervention by Slayer (1994)
These three records have two things in common, and you know what they are.
Coming up n the next post.

I was planning to go to Alex Van Halen event back in October, but due to my indecision on who’s going to with me, I didn’t get the ticket because it was sold out.
The next best thing was to watch the event online after the taping. As a bonus the “virtual event ticket” comes with a copy of the book; with signed plate.
I skimmed through the book and found some interesting tidbits about the Van Halen Brothers.
I also ordered the CD version of the book which is narrated by Alex Van Halen himself. It includes the unfinished music recorded by the Van Halen Brothers.
I’m going to read it later.
Well, package #3 was completely something we did not plan and did happen. To be honest, it’s supposed to be only one package, but plan changed.
At first, we’re planning only to acquire the Red, Black and White EVH Wolfgang Special Striped Series, thanks to a pretty nice discount offered by the vendor. Another vendor made an offer to us for the Yellow and Black 🐝 EVH Wolfgang Special Striped Series.
Late last week, the first vendor made another offer that really tempted us. Now we have completed the series.
We’re going to get these guitars inspected by our favorite luthier who is also a Fender/EVH authorized repair service provider.
Late last night I received an email containing the link to download Kerry King’s debut solo record “From Hell I rise”.
Just earlier today, Amazon delivered its exclusive Silver/Red Marbled Vinyl of the record.
I’ve listened to most of the songs prior to last night and the whole record obviously sounds familiar. I like SLAYER and I like this record too.
I also ordered a copy of the record direct from Kerry King’s official website. According to USPS, it is still en route.
…paragraph deleted because it sounds pretentious and pedantic. 😬
Anyway, I am looking forward to the next record from this lineup.
Another exciting day here at the Headquarters as we unpacked the second package.
I like this version better than the Red Black and White model.
Up next, hopefully by June 2024 we get to complete the collection. Note to guitar shops out there, send us an offer if you have one in stock with the case. You know which one we’re talking about.
Package one has arrived. It is another exciting unpacking day here at our headquarters.
We’re expecting another package sometimes next week.
We might get the third package if we can make the deal with the vendor.
I preordered Slayer’s “Show No Mercy” 40th Anniversary Edition, Liquid “blood” filled vinyl directly from Metal Blade Records shop. It was priced at $199.99 + sales tax; and friend thought that I was crazy. I’m a huge fan of Slayer and it’s worth the price.
Shortly after the preorder was sold out, numerous posting on eBay priced this limited edition vinyl at $999.99 and supposedly sold out too. I do despise eBay scalpers. They shouldn’t be allowed to resell preorders.
Now that the actual product is delivered, the price has gone down to $800.00 and $699.00 on eBay.
Scalpers are profiting from true fans.
