STP is back!
Last week, Velvet Revolver officially announced the firing/departure of Scott Weiland as their lead singer, siting all sorts of reasons. And Slash had previously announced a Stone Temple Pilots reunion.
 
So as expected, Stone Temple Pilots announced, with a news conference/mini-concert in the Hollywood Hills, that they have reunited and have planned a 65-date tour this year.
 
I for one, couldn’t be happier. As a big STP fan since they first broke out on the scene in 1992 and having seen them in concert twice, I’m pretty excited. June 11th at the E Center is their date for Utah.
 
Here are the rest of the tour dates, posted on their official site.

… to tide visitors over until I can sort it all out and get this site completed and ready for update posts, and my new blogging site Banal Leakage started with the first post.
 
The details of coverage for both sites will be separate but mixed, in some ways. Banal Leakage is my thoughts on daily life, written with a mindset of entertaining the reader. This site, ChillyWilly.org, will be coverage of what I have done, as far as work and personal accomplishments I’ve done in life… basically, a history of sorts.
 
So hang on just a few more days and it will all be worth it. And that is no April Fool’s joke.

Will post again soon. Just importing older posts from other blogs and the previous site design. All of the older posts are now up, so see what I had to write back a few years ago. Then watch this space for updates on my blogs and other places to find my writings and work.

Last year at this time, I had a page up called "What’s up with chillywilly.org?" which was up until earlier today. It was the page that greeted people when they came to this site.
 
For exactly one year, that page has haunted me and reminded me that I really need to do something out here.
 
So, as of today, I feel I’ve been reminded enough and am starting to put together the rebuild of this site.
 
And I can promise that it won’t be another year before it happens.
 
Stay tuned.

    For the course of just over two years, I spent a considerable amount of time doing various offers and managing all of it in order to obtain some cool things, for pretty much nothing. Some costs here and there, but for the most part, it was a fraction of what I would have spent to aquire what I did.
     
    UPDATE: I have decided to retire from doing “Free Sites” as the time to manage them is more than I can deal with for now. I may return to this for another iPod or something small in future, but after getting my share of free stuff, it’s time to put my time and focus into other matters.Feel free to browse my pics of the freebies I’ve gotten.

    So I never updated from my trip to California last month. The trip went well, even though it cost more than I expected (plane fare, rental car, hotel, food, Disneyland) for only a quick two day weekend. Regardless, it was fun and it was nice to visit my mom’s grave and visit family as well.
     
    My web plans are still ongoing, with an official blog that I am working on. I really wanted it to roll out yesterday, but didn’t make the time to get it all configured properly. There are some technical struggles that I am working on that I hope to overcome here soon (basically, learning WordPress enough to tweak some of the settings).
     
    Once I get my blog up and running, the main site will go through some changes, mostly consolidating and visual, and all new updates will be posted on the blog. This page will be the main navigation for the entire site. I’m shooting for sometime before September, but it may be later. We’ll see what happens.

    Going to California this weekend for a wedding (neice), to visit my mom’s grave and to enjoy a bit of Disney magic. This is also my first flight since May 2001. Before that, I used to fly at least 6 times a year. But with no job for a bit, plus the lack of monatary abundance kept me grounded. I have been practicing taking off my shoes and remembering to keep my coat off when walking through any archways. I’ll update when I get back with pictures and cool stories.
