It's Christmas time

I think it's time for a Christmas song. After all, Christmas is only a few days away now. This song has been a Christmas favourite of mine for many years now. Combining an all time favourite Christmas song with one of my favourite metal singers. Since this is most likely my last post before Christmas, I wish you all a Merry Christmas. Now, lean back and enjoy this song.

And finally, since this is possibly be my last post of 2012, I'd like to wish you all a Happy New Year too.

Just a teaser...

Yesterday I saw the first pictures from the Hilastherion photoshoot, these first ones looked very good. I can't post them here just yet, but as soon as I can, I will. So, more to come shortly.

Hilastherion, another update

I'm anxiously waiting for the pictures from the Hilastherion photoshoot, we should get them any time now. We have a design for the cover art for the upcoming album, the old band logo felt a bit old school, so we're updating it to something a bit more modern looking. And it's still too early to say exactly what the cover art will look like, since the logo will probably be visible on the cover art.

More updates to come...

Hilastherion photoshoot

I'm watching Quantum of Solace, although I should be going to bed. Tomorrow (or should I say today, since it's already past midnight here) it's time for a long awaited Hilastherion photoshoot. I really should get a good nights sleep, since I have a cold and I don't want to look like it in the photos. I would also like to take this opportunity to invite fans of Hilastherion to like our Facebook page. News about the band or the upcoming album will be posted in this group.

Well, that's about it for this time, good night and I'll see you later.

What a weekend

I had a great weekend. I had been looking forward to a larp workshop, but a week ago the workshop was cancelled, due to too few participants. However, this didn't matter too much, I had time to do some chores at home instead. It was good to finally get some of these things done, after postponing them too many times.

Saturday night a very good friend of mine had a Birthday party. As usual, it was great. We had some serious discussions and many not so serious ones. And the second most delicious chocolate cake I've ever tasted. And a very unexpected suggestion that I had to consider seriously. And we briefly discussed our upcoming Hilastherion photo shoot next weekend. And we also babbled a bit about some Renaissance music concerts, if I remember correctly, I think they will take place in April 2013.

Yesterday was rather fun. Just before noon I sat with my laptop, waiting to register for next year's upcoming anniversary LARP*. In 2 minutes and 28 seconds after they opened the registration form, 15 people had already registered! And I got the character I wanted. Or should I say, I got my first choice. We were told to choose three characters. The character we wanted to play, one backup if we didn't get that part, and a third one if the second character was also taken. All this since it might happen that several players want to play the same character. But now, I'm SO ready to rock as this character.
