My favouite band of the moment is Nevermore: I like their twiddlyness.

Marty Friedman, but not only because of his Megadeth days- some of his solo stuff is excellent aswell, although it gets a little repetitive. He's just a really beautiful sounding guitar player, like he incorporates the melody well with the aggressive element that Megadeth have/had/whatever.

Added to my Messenger contacts, but I'll get back to via e-mail aswell in case you don't use MSN. Look forward to having a chat.

I used to enjoy them when I was younger, but me and a mate got free tickets last year for the one at HMT and walked out after 15 minutes, so probably not a great idea for me again this year. Good if you're into it though.

Jesus, that one's a shock, I'm really sorry to hear that. I'm in the same boat, he came not long after I started going and I had a shirt with his name on the back. It's so unfortunate when these things happen, but there's not much any of us can do about it I don't think. Rest in peace man

Best thing is probably that I make an effort not to be judgemental about things right away, and generally try to live and let live. I also have great musical taste . Worst thing is probably that I'm so damn shy sometimes. I fluctuate between being over-confident, talkitive etc. and being the most unsociable retard I know who'll sit in a corner and barely mumble a few words, depending on the scenario. Oh, I'm also a moody bastard and I hate my voice.

Hell Yes indeed. Preferred their older stuff to the last 2 albums, but I'll probably buy it anyway once its released.

Infactuation may exist at first site, but not love.

Haha, sounds great, but I don't fit any of those criteria so that rules me out.

Hahaha. that one's great.

Kick the shit out of her.......... Nah, sorry, I just can't control myself. I'm not really the best person to comment on women, even if it is behind a PC screen, but you know, you just do whatever feels right man, whatever's natural, different people have different preferences on these things.

Haha, come on Aberdeen, someone must be interested! Surely I'm not THAT retarded....?

I don't really mind Inme, but the way he posted it was pretty amusing........'Dave's no. 1 fan', haha.....sorry man, good luck with it.

Bah, Christmas is over-rated.....but it means amp money so I can't really complain.

Jesus, why do you reply to every thread I post on?! Haha, learn how to play an instrument and you can come to a practice too someday.

My favourite band are Alice in Chains .

Yup, it's me.........again, Didn't get much response to my last band ad, so here goes: I'm 16, male and I live in Aberdeen, been playing guitar for just over a year now and I'm mega-keen to get a band started up, only for a few practices to begin with, then possibly a view to something more serious later on. I don't mind if you're more/less experienced than I am, and I'm not fussy about the type of music you listen to, as long as you're open to new ideas, don't care about age/gender either. If you have a willingness to improve on your instrument and are passionate about the type of music you play, then get PMing! Even just to play through a few covers or something would be worthwhile, even just for the experience of jamming with other musicians etc. My influences include: Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Megadeth, Manics, Iron Maiden, Cacophony, Guns 'n' Roses, Joe Satriani, Metallica, Testament, Diamond Head, Overkill, Destruction, Sodom, Racer X, Black Sabbath etc.

So it is, sorry about that then. I'll edit my one aswell. Just managed to get a hold of a 30 second video of Apollo 11, but it appears I won't find anything better by Wednesday. Ah well- been told these things are ridiculously easy to pass anyway. Most of the stuff I have so far is really solely to quench my own curiosity on it. But we're going to try and take out as much of the scientific element as possible- not many numbers etc. Seems to be coming along quite nicely though. I wanted to do some stuff on Bob Lazar and Area 51 too, but that'll need to wait till after the talk.

Well we've divided up into doing different sides of the argument, so far I've compiled 5 sides of A4 in evidence for conspiracy theories. I'd recommend having a look at this site for some info on the conspiracy angle and this site for the sceptics. Both have some great stuff, but so far, I've been much more inclined towards the conspiracy theory, or at least that if we did land on the Moon, that the footage we got to see weren't the same ones.

This is probably about one of the most cliched threads in the history of the internet, but I'm looking for some feedback for our Int 2 Working With Others talk, which is next Wednesday. We've hardly done any preparation and now I'm sort of panicking, so any views, ideas or references to useful sites etc would be appreciated. Thanks.

Haven't heard any, but I like the sound of it, so I'll definitely go check some out now.

Aye, but come on man....aw Jesus, I don't even want to think about it. Oh well, all of us who don't have prelims enjoy it! Haha.

Alice in Chains do it for me more than anything else. I used to be like that with Bad Religion, but it sort of subsided when I discovered metal.

Aw, fuck, that must really suck for them.....
