Welcome to 2015 everybody, and specifically those who tend to read this journal on a regular basis. Not a whole lot will change in terms of the format of this journal this year, but I do want to point out a few things that I plan to finish up.
Devin Townsend Reviewed: I still plan on finishing this section up. I got a lot of albums out of the way already, and I plan to do the rest very soon. It's one of those things that I really want to see completed mostly for my own personal pleasure, plus...there's nothing wrong with talking about Devin Townsend.
Bands That Are In My Last.fm Library That Really Really Suck: I made this section with the thought that i'd talk about more bands that I've listened to, that just straight up suck, but unfortunately it didn't really take off as well as I wanted it to. I'll be bringing it back, and there are plenty of bands that I want to talk about that belong in that section, so be ready for that.
Live Shows: I had a section a while back that talked about the live concerts that i've been to. I'd really like to get that going again because i've seen my fair share of shows, and a lot of them are definitely worth talking about.
With some old sections coming back to life, I want to also take the time to talk about a few that will be making their debut in the months to come:
Albums in 2014 that I wish were released again in 2015: This will be a section where I talk about the albums that I thoroughly enjoyed last year. A lot of great music was released last year, and a lot of albums definitely made a good impression on me. The title just means that I wish those albums were released again so I could have the pleasure of hearing them for the first time all over again.
Bands / Albums Other Members Have Told Me To Listen To: Just your typical "this members recommended this to me" section. I wanted to start one up myself, because I think it's a great way for people to see that their recommendations are worthwhile. I've been introduced to a lot of great music from people at this forum, and i'd love to talk about them.
As we go onto another hopefully fantastic year for my journal, there will be new sections making their debut along the way that i'm not even sure about yet, but i'll let my creativity take the lead on that one. Last year was a pretty great year for my journal in general, and i'm hoping to make this year even better. So buckle up your seat belts. It's gonna be a fun ride.
