Optical Illusions
Welcome back to The Blog, this update is more Tumblr-esque, as I've only got a few things I wanted to share with you.
As a business note, I have recently finished a large contract which has taken me from March up to now which has given me some extra time to work on a few websites, which I'll be updating on in a few days.
Weezer and The Red Album
I only have a few words to say: oh dear - not about the music, that's okay - but why have they changed their image and branding direction? - I hope that these pictures and video show my inner turmoil with this new look
I have few qualms and uneasy feelings about the actual music, but its the change in their look - to be honest the lead singer looks a bit of a mess, and the other three seem to have been hanging around with the Killers.

Optical Illusions
To a mainstream band like this their image should be considered just as important as their music, if a band looks uncool, like lets say Andrew W.K., then your going to fall of the edge of the globe even if the music is great - and I'd not want to see Weezer do that...
So I guess what I'm saying is that its important for a modern band (or modern business) to build up a strong personality and soul through their image, not just their work, as I don't want to spend my money on something which will represent me as an idiot.
