I am now celebrating several select United States Holiday's

I have decided that here in Halifax, Nova Scotia that since we are pretty close geographically to the United States that I have decided to start celebrating select USA Holidays here in Canada. 

My personal favorite that I will now get is Arbor Day.

Arbor Day is a State Holiday in Nebraska that will now be observing here in Halifax and was  on April 28 this year and I missed it. I will be looking forward to Arbor Day 2018 next year to get started.

Today is also a Holiday in the United States in Rhode Island and it is Victory Day.

Even though Canada probably did all the work and really won whatever Victory they are referencing in Rhode Island I will be celebrating Victory Day will them today in Rhode Island.

It's super great to have new Holidays now here in Nova Scotia from the United States for myself to celebrate to go along with our regular Nova Scotia and Canada Holidays.

Extreme Death Metal Drum Tips by Jason Mackenzie

Here are a few Extreme Metal Drum Tips to help tighten your songs up. 




Not specifically referring to Nile in the above video, but when your playing music like this at these speeds your Extreme Metal Drumming can start to get sloppy and you can lose BPM's if you don't use the proper Extreme Metal Drumming Techniques.

Here are some tips to help tighten up your drumming and get those sick blast beats out in perfect time and not lose speed while your playing your songs.

This is something that I would do when playing music and maybe it will help you get your BPM's up and tighten up that loose sound in your Extreme Metal Drumming.

For the example we'll start with something basic in Extreme Metal Drumming that anyone can practice, feel free to use these beats in your songs or whatever else you want.

We'll start out will something Nile would use in Extreme Metal Drumming to get started.

I'll try to get this accurate but it's just an example, if you can think of a better beat to practice with just use yours with the technique listed below.

Starting with the standard 320 BPM Blast Beat and we'll be switching to the basic 280 BPM Down Beat or BPM 280 Up beat.

To get the idea of what I'm saying for Extreme Metal Drumming first these exercises will help you get your BPM's up for your Extreme Metal Blast Beats and Extreme Metal Up Beats and Down Beats.

Set your metronome to 320 BPM and practice along with the Double Kick Blast Beat. Try to keep this  going as long as you can in intervals of 1 Minute. This way you will know what a 320 BPM Double Kick Blast Beat sounds like.

Do this all the time, practice the 320 BPM Double Kick Blast Beat for 1 Minute at a time along with the metronome. Make sure the Double Kick Blast beat is exactly 320 BPM for 1 Minute.

This is a good way to get you drum speed up.

After you practice this a lot you will know what a 320 BPM Double Kick Blast Beat sounds like.

Important: Make sure that the last beat in the 320 BPM Double Kick Blast Beat is always the Kick Pedal. 

When you are practicing ALWAYS end on the kick drum. That's for this example. Make sure the kick drum is the last beat when your are playing the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320.

Then practice the down beat and the up beat at like 180 the same way.

This exercise  is  for switching between the Double Kick Blast beat at 320 BPM to the Down Beat at 280 BMP, or the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 BPM to the up Beat at 280 BPM.

After you practice getting those beats down at the proper BPM's try this example of switching between the 320 Double Kick Blast Beat and the Down Beat or Up Beat at 280.

This exercise will help your tighten your Extreme Metal Drumming and help build your drum speed.

Here is where a lot of drummers fall off on their BPM's during Extreme Metal Drum songs.

When you are playing your song at 320 and you switch to 280 you are missing BPM's during changes in the Guitar Riff.

This can be extremely frustrating for drummers practicing keeping their proper timing and BPM's during playing a song with other band members.

You spend all that time practicing and then when you play live you went for a 320 to 280 time change like in Nile or something and during the change in the guitar riff your 320 and 280 BPM's fell short and you only got like 317 to 268 or something because you didn't use the proper technique to change between the 320 to 280.

You were probably also the only one at the concert that this happened to and everyone else had perfect drums.

To avoid this embarrassment practice this exercise going from the 320 BPM Double Kick Blast Beat to the 280 Down Beat.

For the duration of the guitar riff play the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 BPM, Always end on the kick drum.

Switch immediately into the Down Beat and Play at 280 BPM.

Don't use a roll or fill to change beats this just makes your BPM's more sloppy when practicing.

Switch immediately from 320 to 280 going from the Double Kick Blast Beat to Down Beat with no fills.

End at 320 on the kick and start right into the down beat at 280 BPM.

This will make your drumming super tight! Make sure that you have practiced the beats and know what a 320 Double Kick Blast Beat sounds like and a 280 Down Beat sounds like or you will look stupid.

There's nothing worse than switching from a 320 Double Kick Blast Beat into a 280 Down Beat or Up Beat and missing a beat on the riff change. This makes you look super stupid. 

By the time the riff was over you went from a 320 Double Kick Blast Beat into a 279 Down Beat. Terrible!

This is the worst event to ever happen in the life of an Extreme Metal Drummer.


Here is the full example:

Play the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 BPM and end on the Kick, then go right into the Down Beat at 280 BPM making sure you hit every beat.

Then:

Try playing the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 BPM and then end on the Kick and go right into the Up Beat at 280.

Practicing these two example will help get your drum speed up and tighten up you drumming and it also sounds super awesome on a record!

Remember, when you're playing the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 BPM end on the KICK drum, THEN go right into the Down Beat at 280 BPM with no fills. 

Then do the same from the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 BPM to the Up Beat at 280 BPM with no fills making sure that the Blast Beat is exactly 320 and the Down Beat or Up Beat is exactly 280.

Just try with no rolls or fills to help get your speed up and tighten your drumming, these Extreme Metal Drum Beats also sounds great in songs.

Make sure when you are playing that your Double Kick Blast Beat is exactly in 320 from practicing all the time to the metronome and always end on the Kick.

Also practice the Up Beat and Down Beat a lot at 280 so that when you play a song you know your are in 320 and 280 for the riff parts.

Then practice changing from the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 to the Down Beat at 280 and from the Double Kick Blast Beat at 320 to the Up Beat at 280, always end your double kick blast beat at 320 on the kick for these examples.

This will sound great in your Extreme Metal Music and make your Extreme Metal Drumming super tight.

Tallships are in Halifax this Weekend!

Tallships Are in Halifax this Weekend

Tallships are in Halifax this weekend.

I went to see the Bluenose II Ship , which is a re-creation of the Bluenose Racing Ship that is famous in Canada. It is the ship that is on the Canada Dime or 0.10 Cent Piece they are called.


This is the Bluenose Original Ship.



The original ship the Bluenose is featured on the dime, that ship is NOT in Halifax. Apparently, it may have been destroyed in a shipwreck like 100 Years ago or something.

The re-creation ship the Bluenose II is the one in Halifax at Tallships NOT the original one on the dime.

It was pretty exciting to see this ship this weekend.

I always saw a bunch of ships from America, which was also pretty exciting.

Use Tide Pods For Your City Apartment Laundry Machine

Use Tide Laundry Pods In Your City Apertment
 When you are washing your clothes in the big city and have a big city apartment you should use Laundry Pods instead of regular laundry detergent because all you have to do is carry the laundry pods and then you don't have to lug a big huge container of laundry detergent up and downstairs with you every time you wash your clothes.

I recommend Tide Laundry Pods.

This way if you do your laundry you only need to carry one or two Tide Laundry Pods to the laundry room in your apartment.

This way you will never need to drag that huge jug of regular laundry detergent up and down the building ever again.

Just bring what you need! That's only like, only one or two laundry pods.






These Tide Laundry pods will work great in you City Apartment Building's Washing Machine. 

Like the Maytag Coin-o-matic Commercial Smart Card Washing Machine.

Maytag Commercial  Coin-o-matic Smart Card Washing Machine

Just remember when you use your Maytag Coin-o-matic Commercial Smart Card Washing Machine, always remember to add the Super Cycle wash option AFTER you pay for your load of laundry.

You just re-insert you Coin-o-matic Smart Card and then add Super Cycle for 0.25 Cents to get an extra 15 Minutes on your Wash Cycle.

Never over pack that Maytag Commercial Washing Machine! When you dry your clothes it may take multiple cycles to dry them if it is too full.

Only put enough clothes in your Maytag Commercial Apartment Building Washing Machine that will dry in 60 Minutes in the dryer or you will be wasting money on drying cycles.

An over packed Apartment Building Dryer may take up to 3 cycles to dry if you over pack the machine!

Only wash enough clothes in the  Maytag Commercial Apartment Building Washing Machine that will dry in 60 Minutes in the dryer or you are wasting money!


Always Add Super Cycle when using your Coin-O-Matic Smartcard!



With your Coin-o-matic Smartcard you just add your laundry money at the card recharge station and your laundry room money stays on the card.

Then you just insert your card into your Maytag Commercial Washing Machine and Pay by the Cycle off the card.

Don't overpack the washing machine because you will end up wasting your Coin-o-matic balance on the smardcard trying to dry your clothes in the dryer!


Add funds to you Coin-o-matic Washing Machine card at the recharge station.

You just use your debit card to add funds to the washing machine card at the Coin-o-matic card recharge station. Then you can keep all your laundry money on your Coin-o-matic Smart Card.

If your friends come to visit the balance on your Coin-o-matic Smart Card can always be used to issue parking permits!

Just go to participating machines and issue your own parking permits by buying them at your Apartment Buildings Laundry Recharge Station!

3 Reasons To Hate Washington DC for Life

Washington DC  now thinks it's England bossing the world around hundred's of years ago while they give us NOTHING and want us to give them everything for FREE to keep then in charge.

I guess that makes us William Wallace here in New Scotland aka Nova Scotia

Then they ALWAYS go back on EVERY AGREEMENT they ever make with anyone.

This is clearly the END OF AMERICA under WASHINGTON DC.....D.C meaning "Different Country" that's NOT WELCOME ON NORTH AMERICA.

Don't let Washington DC boss the World around from their fake capitol. 

DESTROY WASHINGTON DC the Enemy of North America today.
 
I will be documenting the end of America as time permits on my blog.  Join the fight to end Washington DC "Different Country" to end the  FAKE OWNERSHIP OF PLANET EARTH.


3 Reasons To Hate Washington DC for the rest of your life:

1. America's Stonehenge

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America%27s_Stonehenge

Apparently Washington DC experts have confirmed years ago that the ruins in New Hampshire are from the year 1200 from before Christopher Columbus and never told anyone.

The ruins at America's Stonehenge apparently have been matched to ruins in Europe from the year 1200 and they refuse to tell anyone. The ruins they think could be from something like Dracula days or the Dark Ages or something.

Washington DC refuses to tell you because they are fucking pricks.

Fuck you DC, that's something that I always wanted to know and that would have helped me a lot in University just knowing it. Just knowing it would have make me a lot happier because that's something the I ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW.



America's Stonehenge proven to be dated to the year 1200 by using matching rocks in Europe and blocked by Washington DC. DIE.





2.Is there a one hundred story Rocket from the late 1800's hidden inside the Empire State Building?

Is their an old rocket in the Empire State Building?

Apparently, there may be an one hundred story Buck Rogers style escape rocket from the 1800's hidden inside the Empire State building. The rumor is that the front of the building "cranks" open and the part on the from is really a rocket launch pad from the 1800's.

The actual rocket is supposedly hidden in the walls and has  be "cranked closed" into it's cylinder position.

When the building is normal the offices are inside the main rocket, the elevator would be the center of the rocket.

During escape, the rocket's walls would be cranked closed destroying the front of the building.

The launch pad on the front would be cranked open destroying the building and revealing a one hundred story cylinder rocket that would be fired during an escape.

Built in like 1930, that actual rocket is from the late 1800's and is clearly an old piece of crap.

Washington DC won't tell you about the rocket, they should die now.

Is this actually the construction of a crude rocket from the late 1800's?



Is this the construction of an escape rocket in New York?



My illustration done in microsoft paint of the location and operation of the rocket



This would be a similar rocket design as seen on Buck Rogers.


3. Is their a Cannon in the Arm of the Statue of liberty from 1875 to prevent Blimp Attack?

Statue or Cannon from 1875?
There may also be a cannon in the arm of the Statue of Liberty that can also be used as a flame thrower to prevent blimp attack.

If a blimp flies over the Statue it can be fired from inside the statue to shoot blimps in case New York City is attacked by blimps in the 1900's.

If New York City comes under Blimp Attack in the 1900's the cannon is a secret weapon that can fire shells and flames into the air if a fleet of enemy blimps fly over New York City.

Then if it goes bad the pricks from Washington DC in New York City can escape in the Buck Rogers escape rocket hidden inside the Empire State Building.

Washington DC refuses to tell you.











These are three reasons that can help you of your path to hating Washington DC for the rest of your life.
