yeah it was a really enjoyable evening. I've never laughed so much!!!!!!!! What's great is i recorded some of it on to my dictaphone which i had handy

Shame so many missed it because everyone would have enjoyed it. A really good atmosphere too!

wow, and i was already planning to be there on sunday, but now im just damn excited. hehehehe

yeah i can often enjoy a lot of the jams i have shared there, no matter how long and samey they may sound... But the first time i went there was an awesome drummer who I felt blended nicely with what i was trying to play. Recently, there have been no drummers... well... theres been a big lack in a skilled drummer behind the kit, which is quite frustrating! More drummers!!!!!!

Tangerine dream

Well i'm listening to Staccato set EP right now, and i'm amazed at why i havent heard them before. Saw them last night for the first time last night and imho, thats the best band i've seen in Aberdeen. I loved the vocals (I heard a bluesy Alex HArvey), and the stage presence were ace. The band was perfect. Sooooooooooooooo cant wait for their next gig.

My fav music used to be blues. It started with kind of rockier stuff like Dire STraits, then i started getting into blues and country. Then after i saw Blade Runner i really started to dig Pink Floyd which opened me up to Space Rock, Progressive rock and psychadelia. Now i'm listening to Steve Hillage, King Crimson, Tool, Camel, Opeth, early Fleetwood Mac and the Ozric Tentacles.

I love pink floyd, but i don't like another brick in the wall. I certainly don't like this version of it. LOL

Mark Knopfler - Long Highway, seriously, you will cry, cry, cry

my contribution can be HIM - really, really hate those guys

yeah, they're ace

Unfortunately AKA The Fox have pulled out of tonights lemon tree gig due to their guitarist falling ill. I know this is really short notice but anyone band willing to take their place in the line up (with The void, dedalus and Turning 13), it would be a big help.

Phone me on 07793910836 if you are interested

i saw Dillenger at download and didn't like them very much. Not really my thing!

Also saw Burst there though, and they were awesome!

4:oo pm for T13

just remembered it was the song they played before Demon of the fall. i.e. their second last.

Anyone remember which song that was? Pretty sure it wasn't Drapery Falls, although i may well be wrong

I've heard Drapery Falls, and i don't think thats it. It has a sitar effect of some kind, i'm pretty sure.

I hadn't heard Opeth before Donington where they totally blew me away. I've been downloading music and i seem to love it all.

The songs i liked most during the Opeth set was the quite spacey ones with the Sitar effects, and there was one with a really great, long, instrumental outro which blew me away totally.

Giving i like those type of songs the most by them, what album would anyone recommend for me? I don't know what period of Opeth im into the most.

btw, listening to black rose immortal right now and its totally awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

every man to his own taste!

Tho im still confused as to who is being sarcastic here and who isn't. Anyone clarify this for me?

I'm struggling to understand this thread. Is this all sarcasm?

Aren't HIM just a pop band with distorted guitars? Their lyrics are cheesy as hell, and their music is really quite limited as well. I don't seem to understand the term Love Metal cuz there is nothing metal about HIM at all, is there?

Correct me if im wrong, btw.

how many did actually go see HIM over Metallica at Donington anyway?

Opeth, Slayer, Electric 6, Gonga, Machine Head and Metallica were probably my favs.

Opeth really blew me, and electric 6 although perhaps out of place were also excellent.

Gonga rocked, and need say nothing about Metallica

This will also hopefully this will also be the date that The Void will debut an Electric Sitar to their set, so there's another reason to go along!

Alex Harvey, eh? Cool Thanks for the cool review!

Hope you can check us out some time. I'll be getting an electric sitar on Tuesday, so hopefully that will add to our mellow feel.

thanks again

Should have posted it in the wasteland forum. Darn. Sorry :S

I just think her "catchy" songs are annoying. I can't help getting the impression that she thinks she's this generation's answer to Bob Dylan or something. Ach, i really can't stand her cheesy lyrics.

Although im just another guy who has to judge from what i see on tv. Maybe shes not as pretentious as she comes off to be (to me), but until its proven otherwise, the evidence is against her in my view.

PS I think the music industry is exempted from the "innocent until proven guilty" theory

All the info im passing on here is from my friend John. I have no idea how its decided.

echoes - pink floyd
