Hello there one & all it's your old pal DJ Dizzy here & its time to talk about a radically righteous even that happens every 2 years in Omaha NE that of the Omaha Native Days.
Now there are all kinds of events that go down every time this comes up such as concerts, Banquets, Parades & more & it happens every July through August. When I went for the first time back in 2007 it was just incredible getting to see everyone volunteer their time to make the parade come together.
Now you'll see all kinds of things in the parade such as dancers, Cool rides, & superheroes. (No you didn't read that wrong superheroes actually do make an appearance there as well.) And what parade wouldn't be complete without souvenirs & all the candy that'll last you until Halloween.
In fact here's some footage of what goes down.

But anyway these are just samples of what happens every 2 years. But it's worth it. When you happen to stop by or if you're a resident then I guarantee that you'll have a great time/
Here's a link of the website which will tell you about the events even further for more info.

Oh yeah & as an added bonus here's what their Labor Day Parade looks like

Just Dance & Wii Rant
Beep -Beep hey there all DJ Dizzy here I know its a late start but I've been busy but anyway I wanted to try something different now I know game reviews are nothing new but I'm not only going to be taling about a game but a counsel as well so this is my first time on both so bear with me on this.
Just Dance: Okay the game I'm talking about for this month is Just Dance I've played the 2011 version a while back as well as the 2013 version & in all seriousness I didn't really care for it too much because of some reasons & here they are:
The Gameplay As far as gmae play goes you just stand around in a pose as the music plays & the arrows then flash on the screen as you try to rack up some points. So in a way its a rip off Dance-Dance Revolution.
As for the Wii the counsel itself is a total joke because if anything you have to move around with the controller in your hand in order to maneuver the character's actions.
But to keep things short this little song should further explain my thoughts & hatred for it.

So overall they're both a waste of time & money in my opinion & I'm all about sitting down whenever I play a game. So the Wii is something better left alone. As for just Dance sorry to say it just didn't work with me. If I offended anyone that owns the counsel keep in mind that this is all an honest opinion so please understand this when I say no hard feelings.

2015 Rock n roll Hall of Fame rant
Hello there one & all DJ Dizzy here & this time around I've got something to say this time on this years Rock n roll hall of fame induction ceremony. So let's dizzy it up shall we?
Okay so in the last month I had the pleasure of watching the induction ceremony on HBO & well while it was nice that some of these singers & bands got to be inducted after so long one thing I can't help but have some mixed feelings on afew of them. Such as Green Day getting inducted into the hall of fame. I mean sure they're well known for good tunes but I'm having some mixed feelings regarding that this is a band that's been known for selling merchandise & having their music featured on MTV. They're a group I like to call Coporate Punk. They're kind of everything punk rock rebelled against.
Because I though punk is more about anarchy.
So my question on that would be how can a group like that be inducted into the hall of fame & why are you going to overlook someone really deserving like say Doro Pesch who was perhaps the first woman in metal?Also why overlook say George Thorogood & the Destroyers when are they going to get their chance? I mean sure The hall of Fame is all about inducting people regarding their music & contributions but also I've ntoiced there are some people that get overlooked for who knows why.
So I'm going to side with Eric Stuart & Eddie Trunk on the Hall of fame when I say they need to quit overlooking some decent talent & also stop inducting people that don't really deserve it Yes its all about good music but still it's called the Rock n roll Hall of fame not The Hall of fame for random stuff. So my main point is they'll induct anyone for not just music but for who sold the most records.
Which is as bad as say Justin Beiber getting a milestone award at the Billboard awards, (And I've got a lot to say on that.)
Well that'll do it for me so here's some tunes.
