There's an important day as you get older. You wake up one morning and simply decide - yep, this is it, from now on ALLLLLLLLL music is SHIT. I'm not there yet old man.
Metallica are the equivalent of the big summer blockbuster of metal - no, they're not the best band in the world, but if you want to see the biggest, loudest, most dazzling show, no one can touch them. Very much looking forward to the 26th!
Sup! I need to switch some vids on my mac from avi to mp4 - anyone know/use any decent and free software? Download.com keeps coming up with trial versions and pay options. I'm cheap.
The Gaslight Anthem recently were a let down - possibly as they had to follow the awesome King Blues, and seemed pretty tame in comparison. The fact they all look like and dress like Gap models also prejudiced me against them. The Hold Steady ages ago was a bit poor - I think I just noticed how annoying the frontman is, and since then I can hardly listen to the CDs.
I paid over the odds via a tout site (first time I've ever had to do that) - but the premium was about the same as the "fan club" premium, but without a load of shite I don't want coming through the door. Just hope they ACTUALLY arrive.
