...and i said i liked Tripod/Alice in Chains, the LP? I like Frogs though..

I actually didn't even like Facelift all that much. Every song having virtually the same structure (or at least an acoustic intro), but there are some cool tunes. This new effort has too few musical ideas, especially for 5min+, not to mention the overworked vocals, i mean, could he/they maybe shut up and let some cool lines stick in our heads? Other than batter on and on.. with no hook lines in sight, or if any of them are attempts at such.. FAIL!!!!

So... when you said you "really loved AIC", you meant that you loved Dirt and the rest are mediocre?

I think we can all agree that Dirt is by far their best album but I think the rest are ace too.

When I got home last night and reconnected everything it all worked fiine, so I''m guessing it definitely was a problem Sky's end.

Sky don't actually provide broadband. You get your broadband through UK Online and they suck!

I left them last year because they sucked so much (tons of problems).

and the only one at a sensible length. There is a serious lack of ideas on this album.. yawn.. and i used to LOVE AIC too.. shame.

What? Lack of ideas? What about the last album? Not very creative was it!?

Every album they've done has been different. This album is different too and it's ace.

They've come a long way since Alice In Blunderland (when they sounded like fucking Skid Row)!

Much heavier than earlier alice in chains. Sounds pretty promising like

Dirt isn't heavy?

Bugger not having nuclear weapons. Not having some crazy leader trying to nuke us because we don't have any. Imagine how much of an easy target we'd be then.

Which "crazy" leader are you referring to? Nuclear weapons do not prevent a country being attacked by another WMD country. Why would having a Trident replacement prevent Britain being attacked by WMD? I fail to see your logic.

why is replacing Trident illegal??

Replacing Trident would breach customary international law, in particular because it would infringe the intrangressible requirement that a distinction must be drawn between combatants and non-combatants.

If the envisaged use of force is itself unlawful, the stated readiness to use it would be a threat prohibited under Article 2, paragraph 4 of the UN Charter and that the replacement of Trident would be likely to constitute a material breach of article VI of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

If the UK develops its nuclear provision, it will be tearing-up the Non Proliferation Treaty, having abandoned any vestige of commitment to it. Where will that leave the prospect of negotiating away existing nuclear weapons? Where will that leave the prospect of persuading countries without nuclear weapons not to acquire them? How can we persuade Iran to respect the NPT when we do not?

The use, the threat of use, the planned replacement of Trident is illegal. The Scottish Parliament should take the opportunity today to send a clear message to Whitehall that Scotland respects the rule of law and expects Downing Street to do so also.

There is no need for the UK to have Nuclear Weapons.

Replacing Trident and building missile defence systems in the UK and Europe is a total waste of money and could start a new Cold War. It is immoral, illegal, expensive and useless.

There are far more useful things our government should be spending 76Billion on!

The Pakistani election, if it takes place at all, is a simpler two-way choice: pro-US Musharraf or pro-US Sharif.

Queensryche new date:

Queensryche cancelled!

Queensryche have cancelled all European and UK gigs.

Thin Lizzy will be playing alone unless a new support gets announced soon.

They were never there in the first place. All bullshit propaganda.

BBC NEWS | World | Middle East | Hijack 'suspects' alive and well

Weren't 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers from Saudi Arabia?

Yes and nearly half of them are still alive!

May I point everyone in the direction of this thread: http://www.aberdeen-music.com/forums/general-discussion/36861-seagull-attack.html

Yayyyy! I started that one!

Fucking Seagulls.

Yes, Harris hawks were employed to cull seagulls. They don't attack the gulls (some of which are protected) but feast on their eggs.

There are green ladies and white ladies everywhere it would seem.

I remember being in cub scouts and camping in Templars Park. There was a green lady there - never saw one though. Would definitely like to see a ghost though.

The Warlock/Wizard (Alexander) Laird of Skene once got his coachman to ride across the Loch of Skene and asked him not to look back. The coachmans curiousity got the better of him and he looked back to see the Laird sitting beside a hoofed man with striking white eyes. The Laird practised the black arts and studied the occult in Spain. He was followed everywhere by two ravens. Well, as the legend goes anyway.

(original video) - what movie is that from, anyone?

It's not from any movie. It's just a shit music video.

The song was recorded in 1994 but the video wasn't released until 1998.

I used to love the Amiga A500 Speech Synthesiser. It was well ace.

"A man has a pennis and a wooman has a vageena".

Went to see the film Taking Liberties, the film based on the erosion of civil liberties in the UK since Blair has been in office, very good film with some good contributions from Tony Benn, Mark Thomas, et al

Say NO to ID Cards!!

NO2ID:stop ID cards and the database state

The Flying Pig was ace! Sadly is no longer!! The Tunnels or the Cavern probably be best.

Which one is that?

I think he's talking about Euan.

Remember to keep all dogs away from the Music Hall when Queensryche are on as the pitch of Geoff Tates voice may cause them distress; the queen of the REIIIIIIIIIIIICH ( cue glasses breaking etc), try looking up photos from their pseudo glam Rage for Order period. (best album too).

Best Album?????

Operation:Mindcrime without any doubt!!!! Rage for Order doesn't even compare.

Blah, Blah, Blah.... There still shite.

Says the guy who listens to REO Speedwagon!

FYP! Watch it!

Seriously, I don't think even HE is that stupid. But there's reasonable doubt in the case of that fucking cunt....

He might not be. But, Israel and Britain are.

It always strikes me as amazing that people think they should have actually known about this in advance. Unless the MI5 have a constant tap on everyone's brain' date=' how can they know such info, [b']unless they are fucking in on it.

Well, it is well documented that the British Government were involved in False Flag IRA bombings in England in the 1970's and early 80's, so maybe!
