Rocknerd Reviews, Gaming etc, Film Night
Mar. 29th, 2016 11:58 amRocknerd has two reviews from me from this weekend; a long-overdue review of The Fall concert from last year, and more recent review of the Jesus and Mary Chain concert. Coming soon is a review of The Residents and the Mogwai compilation triple album, 'Central Belters'. Also took the opportunity today to alphabetically sort my CD and vinyl collection; around 1300 items in total. Whilst I possibly have too much music on large physical media, there is a lot of memories tied up in many of those items.
The petition mentioned in the last post has gone reasonably well, but is beginning to slow down, which means that it is time for stage two - the general media release and targetting publishers and writers. In other gaming activities played a GURPS/Call of Cthulhu crossover with Bunnies and Burrows on Sunday (being Easter and all), followed by attendance at the Conquest Convention on Monday for more Call of Cthulhu. I have penned two new articles for RPG Review journal this weekend as well, Open Grave: Secrets of the Undead, a supplement for fourth edition Dungeons and Dragons, and The Scythe of Thanatos, an artifact-level item for third edition.
Sunday was also the opportunity to attend the ever-delightful Astor Cinema again to see My Neighbor Totoro and Porco Rosso, which was also advertised as an RPG Review Cooperative event. On the latter, I have made a quick post concerning the politics on as an Isocracy Network blog. Quite a fascinating character is Hayao Miyazaki. I can certainly see how the politics of the Italian era captured his imagination and correlated with his Japanese outlook on similar issues.
