Despite a lukewarm reception from most game critics and initially by me as well, Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam is a surprisingly fun and addictive game. The controls are a little dumbed down if you are used to the classic THPS controller scheme, but that makes this game easy to pick up for a ten minute session or for a two hour marathon. Probably the most fun I’ve had on the Wii so far…
This one is a little late, but I went to see Novak’s band Jettison Babies at the Whiskey August 3rd.
Great band and a great show. Heres the pics.
We spent yesterday afternoon and evening at the Hollywood Bowl for the annual Reggae Night. Wailing Souls, Sly and Robbie(plus guests) and one of the true originators, Burning Spear. It was a great night! Summer concerts at the Bowl are awesome because you can bring your own food and booze. This time we were packing KFC and an abundance of beers which makes the night go much more smoothly.
