Getting Better

So for those of you who don't know I suffered a seizure last week. My girlfriend came home from work and found me unconscious on the floor. She called 911 and I spent a few days in the hospital while they ran a lot of tests. So far the early diagnosis is that the seizure was related to my MS.

While I was in the hospital my girlfriend emailed a lot of people about my health scare and only a few people took the time to write back to see how I was or call me in the hospital.

To those who didn't respond or still haven't reached out to me I say a big....

F*CK OFF!

A lot of people I thought were my friends, and a lot of people I thought cared about me, but this latest incident shows me who my true friends are. And to those who can't understand that I need to lay back and recover yet, I wonder what is wrong with them that they are so selfish and lack understanding to see I need time and space to come to terms with this.

Only a few people I have allowed back into my life right now, and those are the people I will reach out to and talk to and begin to accept my condition with. If you can't handle this in your "me first" world, then I really don't need you or want you in my life.

Lacuna Coil

Sometimes I wonder why one of two bands that are similar in music and talent don't rise to success at the same rate as the other. The perfect example is Lacuna Coil & Evanescence.

I guess it comes down to exposure. Evanescence was lucky with their exposure via the Spider Man soundtrack. But why did they get the break while Lacuna Coil who has been around 4 years longer went by unnoticed. I think in America the whole music scene is blind to what is going on around the world.

Once you leave the United States music is completely different. Where the American music scene is heavily reliable on rap music, the rest of the world appears not to be. Perhaps with this whole Don Imus thing people will begin to shy away from rap music and realize that Don Imus has become a victim of rap. If rap artists can refer to people has nappy haired ho's why can't Dom Imus. But that is not the point of this post and I went off on a tangent.

I think had Lacuna Coil been based in America instead of Italy they would of rose to fame quicker then Evanescence and Christina Scabbia would of been more known then Amy Lee. The biggest problem however is the tunnel vision that Americans have when it comes to all things in general.

Don't get me wrong, I am an American. A proud American. But I keep my mind open and my ears open to new things... So I ask you now, open your mind, your eyes and your ears and check out the new video track from Lacuna Coil...
