ME Ep6
Video release, 3/2 the acoustic version. From my album, Anger Management, an album that lives up to its title. The song is short and brutal.
Current project, True Faith, a song inspired by Baz Luman's commencement speech, Everyone is free to wear sun screen. For my album, The Cutting Room Floor, an album yet to be released.

Review
Eater of the DeadBook VS movie.
Eaters of the Dead: The Manuscript of Ahmad ibn Fadlan, Relating His Experiences with the Northmen in AD 922 (later republished as The 13th Warrior to correspond with the film adaptation of the novel) is a 1976 novel by Michael Crichton, the fourth novel under his own name. The story is about a 10th-century Muslim Arab who travels with a group of Vikings to their settlement.
Historical, based on real life events lost in antiquity. The original came from a Muslim. A witness rather than an author. No an entertainer. He was an ambassador. A tax collector and anthropologist. See introduction and Wikipedia for more information.
Ahmad ibn Fadlan Journeyed on a heroes quest with a group of North men, Viking.
Michael Crichton did good job as a story teller in reverse Viking tradition. Instead of grandstanding he did his best to stick to actual events. he admits that a portion of story is still fiction.
Movie stars the talented Antonio Banderas as Ahmad ibn Fadlan, as well as Diane Venora and Omar Sharif. It was directed by John McTiernan; Crichton directed some uncredited reshoots. The film was produced by McTiernan, Crichton, and Ned Dowd, with Andrew G. Vajna, James Biggam and Ethan Dubrow as executive producers
A good adaptation and follows the book with about a 70% accessory. It was well done and is a compliment to the original. Both the ending of movie vs book are perfect. I highly recommend both . Mainly because they are based on real life events that happened over 1000 Years ago. It has more validity then books like beowulf or the bible. Its context also gives validity to both as reproductions of stories that have been passed down through time. Meaning behind every legend is a grain of truth.

Next week's video release is the bio of my album, The Madam. Where we go off into the deep end into the realm of multi dimensional supernatural forces. So get ready for crazy. I would like to shout out to Pix…….. I have been using this sight to gain stalk footage in a Publik domain. I want to say thankyou to all the countless individuals who have uploaded footage for others to download and utilise. From the bottom of my heart I thank all those who have uploaded for others to use. I have not had the chance to thank each person individually. I instead I am sending much love and respect to all.
