I love Progpower USA. Doro played Thursday night and was LOOOONG overdue to play a PPUSA show. They were fantastic !! We even had a nice little mosh pit. She absolutely ripped the place down !!! It was one of the best shows I have seen.

One thing cool about being a metal-head is that despite having the heaviest and most aggressive music out there, we also own some of the most beautiful and melodic as well. Here are two of my favorite acoustic metal songs. The first isn't 100% acoustic as it has some keyboards, but for the most...

Guitar has certainly advanced since he went solo, but it sure seemed to have slowed down considerably. He is still viable....... almost as good as The Wolf >:P~ Bryant

What is my favorite metal song ? Silently by Vanden Plas. What metal song do I think defines the genre ? Rainbow in the Dark Bryant

Vanden Plas is a band that is well respected on this forum for a prog-metal band. They hold that honor simply because of me. They aren't magical or anything........... BUT !!!........ they have backed up my promotion because they simply make great music. I challenge everyone reading this post...

My wife and I usually share a room with a friend of mine, but she is not able to make it this year. If anyone is interested in paying for half of a two bedroom suite at the Artmore, please PM me. Bryant and Harumi

Is anyone here going to PPUSA ? I have a bit of a problem. My roommate of several years has a medical issue and can not attend this year. I rent a two bedroom suite each year at PPUSA. It is quite expensive, yet cheaper splitting the the cost as opposed to just getting a single room at this...

I have decided to buy a boat. I have looked at literally thousands of boats and even jet skis trying to find what it right for me. One FINALLY popped up. It is called an Aristocraft Nineteen. It was manufactured between 1968 and 1980. This boat is SO ME !! Bryant

Sorry I wasn't born listening to Sabbath, but it just didn't happen that way. My first guitar hero was Tom Schultz of Boston. From the 80's forward, I always preferred underground or heavy stuff, but even the radio friendly rock of the 70's kicked ass !! Bad Company, Zep, Boston, AC/DC etc...

This band has Vivian Campbell, Vinnie Appice, Jimmy Bain and a guy named Andrew Freeman. It is basically the original Dio lineup minus Ronnie. It sounds great !! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8t-9o-jyrI Bryant

Once again Vanden Plas has another release. To me, it sounds like Vanden Plas. I can give no greater compliment. Thematically, it is not much different than the last one. It is definitely heavier and more immediate though. It is typical of Vanden Plas......... bombastic at times and heavy enough...

Cool ass song here !!

One of the few 90's rock bands discs I own is a couple by the American band Fuel (Love the Goo Goo Dolls too btw.) Anyway, I was driving home from work and decided to listen to the local classic rock station. Fuel "Hemorrhage" started playing. What a bad-ass song !! As soon as I got...

I was listening to an old Vanden PLas video on youtube while posting on the PPUSA forum. The song ended and as opposed to youtube playing some weird jazz trio or something after the Vanden Plas it played a band called Winterborn. I had never heard of them, but believe me, there is lots of...

Was replying to a Vanden Plas thread and listening to a VP song on youtube. Well the VP song ended and the next video was by a band called Winterborn. I don't come across as being particularly picky because I am the type that believes in saying something nice or not saying anything (Axel Rose...

There was already a thread here with this on it, but it was down the line. I was afraid someone here might have missed the official video of the song thinking the thread was just about the trailer. I couldn't possibly let that happen to my favorite band in the world. ^__^

This stuff is beyond description !!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=mKqCj8NMqaM

DC Cooper was scheduled to headline the kickoff, but unfortunately had to cancel. In his place will be Armored saint and Saxon.
