And other stuff I can't recall at thy moment.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I got Blackwater Park and sold it after a year. The first few times I heard it, I enjoyed it, but that was it. Every other time afterward it just dawned on me that they are the dullest thing out there. I'd much rather have Turn Loose the Swans stuck on repeat for a day than have to ever hear Opeth again.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Whoo!

Dream Theater was quite the show. Pictures and information when I can get them developped.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Ah, DragonForce. Got to see them last Monday. Brilliant show.

Must say I've never seen anyone play on a keyboard behind their head before.

How ya doing, buddy?

Alexi Laiho's the best though, that i'm sure of.

Go listen to "They Will Return" and think about bird hunting.

Most amazing jew boots

FELIPE NO

Why is Type O Negative the best thing to play during October?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Well, I just poped in my copy of Thornography by Cradle of Filth. Even spent the extra cash to get this sucker from Britain for the sake of a limited edition "First Day Cover" copy. Though it's just a slip cover with the album's emblem with a green and black gradient behind it and the copy number on it (1628).

Thus far I can say it opens better with "Dirge Inferno" when compared to Nymphetamine's "Gilded Cunt". I rather like this direction they're taking, whether they're sell outs or not. It's still no Midian or Dusk and Her Embrace, but still good if you're a Cradle fan.

How ya doing, buddy?

I thought Pink Floyd was progressive rock. People just think it's psychadelic or stoner music--whatever the hell psychadelic rock would mean.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

EVIL EVIL EVIL

For those that missed it.

How ya doing, buddy?

And if you like to go bird hunting, you'll love They Will Return. Just think about duck hunting or something when you listen to the title track.

I have a question for those of you familiar with music on a bit of a technical level. Does anyone have any recommendations of metal songs that are in 3/4 time? I'm interested in this because I find it fun to waltz to things of this sort instead of more traditional waltzing songs like classical music and to slow country songs (hooray for living in bumfuck Wyoming). Any picks I should look into?

I was speaking idiomatically.
