Peelander-Z is known for involving the crowd and their antics on stage. Watching their concert at AWA also showed me that their songs involve little more than a few words being repeated over and over. However, that doesn't matter a whole lot because they are very entertaining to watch and they rock hard. Here's a clip from their song called "steak." How do you like yours? MEDIUM RARE!!

Anime Weekend Atlanta
AWA has once again come and gone. Mikel and I had lots of fun dressing up this year. On Friday we were characters from a zombie video game called Left 4 Dead. Here's a picture of our characters and pictures of us.
I made the hand gun and shot gun using pvc pipe, cardboard, styrene, hot glue and spray paint!
On Saturday we dressed as Final Fantasy characters. Mikel is a Dragoon and I'm a Black Mage. We made most of both of these costumes ourselves. For Mikel's armor we used foam sheets and hot glued styrene (a thin moldable plastic) onto the foam. I sewed my hat and cloak from scratch.
As is tradition, we ate at Jocks and Jills. Thanks to mom and pop we actually ate there twice this year!
On Saturday night we saw a Japanese action comic rock band called Peelander-Z perform. They were a lot of fun. They say they are from planet Peelander-Z and their names are Peelander yellow, green and red. They also signed a poster for us.
A fun time was had by all!

Disney buys out Marvel
For anyone who hasn't heard the horrible news, Disney is in the process of buying out comic book company Marvel. Don't get me wrong, I love Disney as much as the next girl. Who can deny the classics? Aladdin, Lion King, Mulan, all wonderful movies! But when the company that created Mickey Mouse takes over the company that created Venom, interests get crossed and unnatural things happen.
I'm still hoping for the best, but the way Disney tends to overkill any semi popular character or show that they create, my hopes aren't too high. Let's just cross our fingers that Disney is a little more careful with things that they didn't create and hopefully not ruin the inventive strength of marvel comics.
