  1. I saw Avenged Sevenfold at the Astoria and though they sucked and the singer kept doing this thing where he looked like he was jumping on one of those crappy aerobics trampolines and then taking sips of his water and not really doing much.

    The Bronx rock all your Mums and I don't even know why I'm writing this because I don't care and I'm trying to update my LJ grrrrrrr.

  2. It's called Clones. What does everyone think of it?

    Time ago, Ash were one of my favourite bands ever, I still count 1977 as one of my favourite albums of all time and, unlike some, I really liked nu-clear sounds too. But I felt really let down with Free All Angels and was pleased to hear Tim and the boys (+ girl) saying they would be returning to their rockier former selves for the next album.

    So I only just saw the video for the first time and I must say I'm quite impressed, I think it might have to grow on me but hopefully their new album will be just as good, if not better, than 1977. And that would take some effort.

    Oh and Charlotte looks gorgeous in the video.

    Those were the days... I was called a nazi... and yes.. playing Duck duck goose on Belmont Street.... that was when the original Duck Duck Goose was but a baby...

    *wipes a tear from eye*

    Those were the days...

    Oh no!! You just reminded me of a day last summer when me, Jeid, Queen Kong, Paulscoconutass, Roscco, Sludge and other people spent a whole afternoon doing nothing on belmont street just moving from one side of the street to the other abd laughing at the way Gordon's kids run. Then Sye came to meet us and we went to Ma Camerons for our tea. What an ace day.

    I really don't miss there being a whole page of new threads every half hour though. That totally sucked.

  4. My ticket arrived today which was tres exciting because it came in an envelope with THIS IS NOT A CIRCULAR written on it, which made me instantly think it was junk and want to throw it in the bin.

    So now I'm excited. I hope Katie has her ticket. Who wants to adopt me?

    I'd just like to tell everyone what a retard I am. I just checked my ticket to see what day the gig is so I can book it off work and it said sunday......but then that's part of the bands name. Am I a loser or what?? Someone please shoot me, it's hella early.

    I had the most....once..

    Oh yeah I forgot, coming online about 9am to find Logan had been online all night and had the last post in every thread in every forum. I don't really miss that though.

    In all seriousness though (last night I was unable to sleep, thus being bother to post from my mobile) so many threads are gonna cross over. Say you wanted to post a thread about something funny that happened to you at a gig the night before. Does it go in Music Discussion because, ultimately, it's about music, or the Wasteland because you actually wanna discuss whoever vomited on themselves or who had the brightest socks.

    I'm confused.

    I remember when I was a young lad. Interesting I know. I also remember that when I first stumbled across this here music scene from Aberdeen that there was a forum called "AUBL".

    Everyone used to refer to aberdeen-music.com as "the aubl", and life was much better. Everyone posted on the same forum, and everyone was united as an actual music scene, rather than people who spoke about music, and people who spoke about their socks.

    I have a dream. A dream where everyone is treated equally. A dream where people can post random shite about what colour their socks are, and then about how much they love emo, and then someone else can tell them they are idiots. And then there would be conflicts that everyone knew weren't real, but raised the adrenaline level that extra notch. It made my day. My heart would pound in my chest and I would feel alive as I read the brewing fight between Zombie Munch and everyone in a "punk" band. These were the days when things were actually discussed, not where one person posts something vaguely interesting and then one person replies saying "I agree".

    This is ridiculous! grrrrr.

    Were this forum to exist once more, people would learn that there is no value in posting about the colour of their socks. This only started happening once it was attempted to split the two.

    It's boring having to look through every single forum to find something even slightly interesting. grrrrr.

    Of course, forums like "wanted and for sale" and "musicians corner" should still exist, along with the band forums, because bands rely on these and niche market posting needs a home where people can find it. Otherwise everyone should be thrown in the same room! Like a big party. there will always be someone to talk to in the aberdeen-music forum, there's only a few people to talk to in one of the 4 million forums this site now hosts.

    Plus, mods wouldn't have to waste their time being nazis, and would not have to keep moving people's threads around BECAUSE THE LAW SAYS SO!

    The mods do a great job of course, and I prey that the wonderful rules of democracy allow everyone to add their say in this sort of petition.

    My dream is that all forums unite as one. No more discrimination! Let the people speak, and may the boards become an Aberdeen-music scene once more! Not a collection of some people who speak about music, and scenesters who speak about socks. Everyone together! Let the music flow like a river that is flowing very quickly through its banks so it ends up in the sea and meets all the crabs and all the fish and all the sharks.

    Help me live this dream!

    Woo yeah. I remember the good old days with RDB causing trouble. Jeid, Draven, thisGIRL and LynDsey fighting for the most posts. I actually cared. Bring it back i tell ya! X

  7. I have no idea. My wishlist currently comprises of:

    The Bronx

    The Rapture (who I'm seeing May 11th you fucks)

    RX Bandits

    My Chemical Romance

    Read Yellow

    Challenger

    Million Dead

    There's probably heaps more but that's all I can think of just now. Did I post this in the wrong forums. Technically it's not about music right? It's about a festival. PLEASE DON'T MOVE THIS MODS!!

  8. Get yours through wayahead.com as meanfiddler aren't selling theirs yet. The White Stripes are the only confirmed band so far though. And the cheeky fuckers are charging an extra 10 this year making a ticket with booking fee and p&p around 115.

    But get them soon, they're not expected to last long this year.
