  1. I think there's going to be a music hall gig in febuary. I'm sure I got an email about it a month o so ago.
  2. It would be nice to gig at some point this year with a new band.
  3. If anyone saw the Jump London programme last year you may be interested to know that there's a follow up programme being shown on thursday on channel 4. In this one they are going to free run across various sites in the UK including Edinburgh castle and the forth rail bridge. So should be worth watching. If you didn't see the previous programme last year you can get an idea about parkour/free running from the following link: http://www.urbanfreeflow.com It's awe inspiring to see these guys jumping, rolling and vaulting off walls and stairs.
  4. When I first woke up at 2 I felt like shit. So I took some paracetamol and went back to sleep until 3:30 and then when I woke up I felt fine. Been on a steady stream of chocolate and water since then and I still feel great.
  5. I was out for a meal with friends then a party at my brother's till fuck knows when.
  6. well if you're just having a jam, and know that you're going to be switching tunings, you could just leave the locks off of the nut and then it would be the same as a normal guitar.
  7. it's not something you'd want to have to change in the middle of a set. If you want to use different tunings or are worried about string breakage take a second guitar (you should really do this anyway as it's still quicker to change guitar than strings). But on a day to day basis it's no big deal and the benefits of a floyd rose trem outweigh the drawbacks. Having said that the main reason I sold my last guitar was that I wanted to get rid of the floyd rose.
  8. I had a great 2004. Hopefully 2005 will build on that and I'll have another great year.
  9. I got a digital camera. I also got Sid Meier's Pirates limited edition which is fucking ace! Reminds me how much time I lost playing the original all those years ago.
  10. the best I can find is that the singer is a guy called Chris Warren and the band were called the DX band. They played it live at a wrestlemania in the nineties. It is DEFINITELY not RATM though and is one of the most annoying myths surrounding rage. Not helped by stupid people renaming MP3s so it looks like it's by rage and uploading tabs saying it's a rage song. Why the hell would rage do a song for the WWF? I mean really.
  11. Refutoid: No they didn't. It was a soundalike band.
  12. that R&B night was hilarious though. last time I went we kept asking them to play Goldie Looking Chain, and eventually were told that they wouldn't get played because they're english and this is a hip-hop night. and yes thank you muchly for playing Eternal Life on Saturday. if only they'd let me put my jacket in so I could have danced! * *on entry was told there was no space in the cloakroom. I pointed to an empty hanger and said "look there's a hanger there". I was then told it's broken, yet it looked like it was hanging pretty well to me and from my vantage point seemed to be intact. But ah well.
  13. dedalus/politik split by a mile. different class. The maple album was great as well.
  14. ooh I thought this was last wednesday for some reason. cool. I'll try and be there.
  15. I saw that video while skipping through channels at a friends house. It was like a car crash, I had to watch it all the way through no matter how horrible it was.
  16. 1. lose weight 2. start playing in another goddamn band (be it galaxy of fire or something else, doesn't have to be just one band) Those are the important ones. Everything else will just happen if it happens.
  17. mark can be hit and miss, but when he hits it's pretty good (see the recent dedalus tracks on the dedalus/politik split). Really though with anyone locally you're going to get what you put in. Give them something good to work with and you should get a decent enough result, a producer will only help you they won't make you sound great if you sound shit to begin with,
  18. you'll struggle for one bedroom at under 300. You'd be better off sharing if you're on a budget.
