    Yngwie

    http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=171281 The thread starts out about an article posted by Lizzy Borden about recent troubles supporting Yngwie. It dissolves into a couple of Australian bands getting the same thing a few years ago. Just curious as to whether or not the...

    80's videos

    2 computer monitors on my desk at work leaves enough space to have some 80s music videos playing in the corner of one. What a flashback - that sure don't make videos like these nowadays! The hair! The spandex! The posing! Some I've watched so far today include: Dokken - Dream...

    An old question for Mr Ripper (or anyone who knows the answer really)

    This has been in at least 1 thread I can remember here before, but I'll be damned if I can find that thread ... or remember the answer :Smug: It's about the ad on tv for reflex printer paper. There's the receptionist you should never trust called Zena .... and she's listening to something...

    Whats's a good introduction to the band?

    Just curious really. I had never heard Armored Saint before - and one day I was on a "lets buy a couple of cds by bands I have never heard before" trip. Came across the 2 disc version of "Nod To The Old School" and figured - what the hell. I was really liking what I heard through the...

    They never learn.....

    Who saw "Today Tonight" last night on channel 7? I caught some of it before heading out for dinner. Some girl killed herself and her parents were blaming the lyrics from songs :( Specifically they blamed Blink 182. http://todaytonight.com.au/stories/677858.html This is the kinda thing...

    Saturday Night

    http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/03/23/1048354471645.html Sounds like I ended up at the better gig of the night on Saturday - Bar Broadway (Jerk, Kyser, Daysend, 8 Foot Sativa) instead of the SCG :)

    Black T-Shirts

    Before I forget about UM for the rest of the day and get back to the mountain of work I have to do - I'd just like to share this thought: Black T-Shirts are amazingly useful! Whenever I am wearing one I do not get any of the following: * hassled by anyone for money * hassled for...

    Ok - who is going to Wacken this year? I am going to be in England/Scotland in the middle of August anyway ..... so when some random person in the line at Stanmore Macca's reminded me when Wacken was I had no choice but to tack a visit to Germany onto the begining of my trip :spin: :grin...

    Def Leppard DVD

    Ok 2 things have been bugging me ever since I bought the DVD with Historia and "In the Round" on it... 1) The sound. What is with only having 2 channel audio? Where is the crystal clear 5.1 dts sound ala Rock In Rio? 2) The Audio syncing for "In The Round..." Watching this I noticed...
