The Apes have gone away for the evening and I’m bored.

Normally I just nap when feeling like this, but tonight I decided to explore the Big Hairless Ape’s computer files. Just as I was getting bored with this I discovered a directory of music files.

I remember these too. The Big Hairless Ape used to play these rather loudly before the arrival of the Big Haired Wife and subsequently; The Wet One. He used to listen after smoking a twisted paper of greenery while providing me with hours of petting. Those were the days! Things have been too damned quiet since the arrival of the other two.

So tonight, I have the tunes extremely cranked! ScapeGoat is hiding under the couch thinking this must be the end of the world or something.

I have some musical favourites too. I know what you’re thinking. And no, I’m not going to start rambling off Cat-related music like Cat Stevens, or songs like Cat’s in the Cradle, or Cat Scratch Fever. I know damned well these have nothing to do with Cats.

We’re talking about Progressive Metal here. Bands like Jorn, Nightwish, Stratovarious, and Ayreon to name a few. As much as I believe myself to be a great vocalist, (just ask the neighbours after I’ve been out all night) I could never belt out tunes like these Apes.

I’d make a great Metal Head too!

Okay, maybe not. But it’s sure fun to think about!
