Shanghai surprise!
Lamb of God has successfully made it once again into China! We were banned here for a long time because the government was under the impression we were an evangelical Christian organization, Hell-errr-Heaven bent on spreading the word of Jesus and undermining communism. Man, we just can’t win…
The last time we were in China we had two shows booked- one in Beijing, one here in Shanghai. The government of Beijing let us in, but Shanghai said “nope, paperwork didn’t work out.” I think it was really because the World Expo was here then and they didn’t want our kind scumming about, muddying up the waters. But we are here now and I am hungry as fuck so I’m going out to try some of the world -famous dumplings made here.
My buddy Freddy from Beijing is our wrangler this time again, so he’s gonna take me to the hood spots- I wanna eat local and don’t wanna see any gwei-lo’s (Cantonese for my kind) lurking about. If there are too many whities, it’s bound to be some watered down tourist bullshit. I keep it real! Going to the YuYuan Gardens too at some point- touristy, I know, but my wife (whose family is from here) says it is beautiful.
No Twitter, no google in China. I’m surprised tumblr is up and running for me. Jetlag is finally kicking in, but I must soldier on- didn’t fly around the world to sit in my hotel and not google stuff.
Peace y’all!
Mr. President

It’s too bad that I can’t see you guys in Shanghai this time since I live in Beijing and Shanghai is too far away. Hopefully next time Lamb of God come to China, it would be Beijing. Have an ass kicking show tonight!

Here's a few things you should know about about me:
1. I'm 40 years old as of 2/21/2011.
2. I'm happily married to an awesome woman.
3. Sometimes I live Richmond, VA. Sometimes I live all
over the globe. I ALWAYS reside in Randonesia.
4. I really like: books, hunting & fishing, skateboarding,
punk fucking rock (the music & the way of life- true
til DEATH!), comic books, guns, knives
whips (basically any sort of killing weapon), good coffee, & non-alcoholic St. Pauili Girl or Becks
beers.
5. I am a sober alcoholic. I don't drink or drug anymore
because it was killing me. Everybody else, by all
means, PLEASE- have a drink on me.
6. I sing for a metal band called lamb of god.
7. I say exactly what I want, when I want to. If you don't
like it, don't read this blog. I don't care if I hurt your
feelings- I speak what only what I regard as the truth,
and nothing else.
8. I tend to disregard conventional grammar & spelling
at times, not because I am ignorant in such matters,
but because this a fucking blog, not my attempt to
win the Pulitzer. When I get paid to write, I let editors
fix the details. Here, I try not to worry about it much.
9. I do not tolerate racism, religious intolerance, homo-
phobia, dogmatic political posturing, sexism, class
restrictions, or just general idiocy/assholeness from
ANYONE, OF ANY SEX, CREED, OR COLOR, nor should
you. That being said, I am definitely not politically
correct, so if it's a joke- get over yourself.
10. I do not give a fuck.
11. I am actually a nice, warm-hearted, generous,
articulate Southern Male with impeccable manners. If
ya see me on the street, come say hello!
