  1. ...except myself who was once again working and missed all the fun and cake.... i bet there was cake wasn't there.... work makes baby jesus cry.

    Glad you had a good day bro' date=' see you thursday for a turned down jam by the fireplace with added slippers.

    There was indeed cake. It was very nice. I'd say I saved you a bit, only I didn't... sorry d00d. See you on Thursday, I'd better get me Zimmer on the go...

  2. Most Metal of Metal, Best Fudge performance and Best Live Band at this years Fudge awards.

    Judging by the amount of people not clapping I'm guessing we are just TOO metal (or not shouty enough) for most of the scenesters, but let's face it, if you think you're too cool to be seen applauding widdly solos, beasting harmonies, uplifting choruses and all out metal shenanigans, then we don't want to talk to you anyway \/ And hardy-har, we won more awards than you 8)

    Seriously though, thanks to all who did show their appreciation, it's you people and the people who vote who we really, really want to thank, I say it a lot but it's the fans that make this band so popular, not us, we just do what we do and if people like it then hooray! You rock. :up:

    I'm expecting the backlash next year when some young band comes along and blows us away making us look like a bunch of old men in the process...

  3. Not long enough. Especially when your songs average at least 6 minutes.

    But really I'd say it depends what sort of music you're playing, and how long your songs are. For example, if you're a punk band with 2 and a half minute songs then half an hour is probably enough, whereas if you're a prog rock band you would want to play a bit longer in order to play more than 2 songs. Cue lots of hilarious people saying that if you're a prog rock band you shouldn't be given any time at all. Well, don't bother because I'm laughing already. hohoho.

  4. Well, as gigs go that was a superb amount of fun, certainly from my point of view. I enjoyed that more than any gig for months! Felt like we played a bit better than usual too... a few mistakes, but fuck, it's live music and that's what it's all about 8) Thanks to all who came down for it, like I always say it's the crowd that really makes a gig, and they were well into it. And dressing up was fun too ;)

    And it's always a total pleasure to play with FeSTR. Always.

  5. Anyone who says Notre Dame isn't worth a look clearly hasn't been there' date=' it's beautiful.

    I'm incredibly jealous. I'd love to go back to Paris. Favourite city in the world.[/color']

    This is the truth. Notre Dame really is pretty incredible... The Catholics do the best buildings in the world :up:

    And I think Paris is probably my favourite city too... it's fantastic.

    If you have a spare day then go to the Louvre. Some amazing stuff in there... but if you don't have much time then don't bother. There is so much stuff to see that if you've only got a few hours you won't see enough of it and you'll be annoyed because there is so much stuff you had to miss out. And the Musee D'Orsay is also amazing if you're into paintings at all, lots of Van Goghs, Monets, Pissaros and the like.
