Whoa! This thread is a blast from the past! :D
And of course, I bought tix for me & Urban today to three of the shows. Hopefully he won't be on tour that weekend. :)
Been wanting to see this band a long time; almost went to Baltimore to do so last year but couldn't at the time. It may not be most people's favorite, but Contagious was one of the first tapes I owned when I started getting into hard rock & metal.

On the contrary! Urban also thinks Urban sings in key. :D
Now, now, let's not get crazy here. Put down the labels and slowly back away... there, yes, over toward the bar. Now make yourself a nice bourbon. Better? Good.

Yep, yep! I always considered them more just plain old "metal" than power metal, and I think Urban would agree. ;) I think there's just a tendency for people to want to further subdivide/describe stuff and they get lumped in there.
Or you could go 'like' his Facebook page to keep up. ;)

We play board games when we can, but alas, it isn't as often these days with us living outside of Atlanta and Urban on tour a good bit. I grew up playing the 'standards' with my family; we were always playing something or other, a little D&D when I was in high school... I think Urban's...
My mom has asked me several times over the years "So when is ProgPower?" Of course, she's also met about 10 regular attendees, not counting me and Urban. :D

My arm has been twisted so there will be bourbon balls... I'm going to buy the rest of the ingredients tonight (I bought the bourbon a month ago). :D
:grin:
Added to the list of things to tell her about!

People, write your Congress critters. Seriously. Don't rant & rave, but most of you can certainly make a cogent argument that the entire visa process *particularly* for artists is overly complex and unwieldy.
Not that it did a damn bit of good when I did so after my own personal challenges with...
This may be a little early, but if anyone has to give up a room at the Artmore (or the Residence Inn), I'd be happy to take it off your hands. Would prefer something with 2 beds, but I'm focusing on location atm. I have a backup plan but would prefer to be at the Artmore again.
Feel free to...
That sounds interesting... I'll have to give that series a read. For my part, I often feel overwhelmed and thus wind up listening to even less new stuff that I feel I should.
Will be interested to hear from you in 30 days. :)
