Em I dunno any names as I've only been 2 or 3 times, but I remember a couple of the barmaids were cute. As for cutest customer...... hmm tough one! But I'll have to go with me!

I like the idea. Moshulu's air guitar night is good and all, but it carries that nast entry fee tag. Plus it'd be interesting to see how they compare. Andy

Well it's come to that stage again! Through sheer laziness I've managed to go without a haircut in 5 months! I've reached that awkward "inbetween" stage, so what you reckon? Get the chop ?( , or go all the way ? Andy

I lived in Inverness *shudders* for 10 years! It was horrible! So glad I got away

arghhhhhhh no! *recoils* you said the "I" word!

Hmm yeah agree that Penny seems like bit of a character. Rainbow Princess seems like a larger than life sort of person. Hmm Dan atom has a wicked sense of humour and I'd like to bitchslap Calum (not really, just jokin kid... or am i???)

I've done quite a few things in my time. But usually get away with it here's 3 of the best 1) Age 13: set a fire in the country. the smoke spewed out onto the road causing the cars to stop on either side of the smoke till the fire brigade came to put it out. me, and my 2 friends who were with me, crept our way back to town, stealthing from bush to bush to avoid the police cars! my friend mike was shitting it all the way back! everytime a car passed he thought it was an unmarked police car! 2) Age 14 or 15: There was a road works site building a road through an woodland area where i used to hang out all the time as a kid. Me and a couple of friends decided to send out the message we were pissed off about it! we waited till all the workmen had gone home... then we smashed up the vehicles, broke their tools, threw away bags upon bags of their cement into a nearby burn, damned the burn causing the area to flood and blew up some nearby oil cannisters. fun! we got away with that, but ironically got nailed a week later for playing on hay bails, of all things!! damn cop! (don't feel pity for the workers, our rampage meant extra labour for them! so we did them a favour really!) 3) Age 12: a fire, now referred to by all who were present as: "the BMF, ie. the Big Mother Fucker". as it's name suggests it was a pretty damn big fire. me and 3 mates were pissing around in some wood surrounded by a field of dry bracken (you know what's coming next), one of us suggested lighting a fire, so we did. i then pointed out that maybe it was a bad idea, but my friend neil just said "fuck it!" i handed him the match and up it went. it wasn't too bad for a few mins, but by this time i was running like a motherfucker! i looked back only to see my friend mike trying to hit it out with dry gorse (bless)... he succeeded in spreading it in 5 places instead! fuck! in the space of about 5 minutes we were a safe distance away from the fire had spread to the size of somewhere in the region of a 1st division football pitch! we watched from a safe distance as 3 fire brigades turned up, followed by 2 police cars. we got off with that one too. we always got caught for the stupid stuff.... never the actual bad stuff we did! That brings us up to date! Age 18 and a perfect little angel now....

Hmm I like John Smith's (or as close to, Tetley's, Caffery's & Wurthington's all do the business too). But sometimes I go for the spirits, in which case it's straight onto the Vodkas and Cokes.

How so? Weiki wrote almost all of Keeper II, which IMO beats the crap outa Kai's Keeper I. Also I think he's over-rated as a Guitarist, I much prefered Weiki & Roland's solos. Sascha did ok on RDCE, we'll see how he holds up this time around.

Andi Deris Any Deris fans here? I just bought his last solo album, "Done By Mirrors", and think it's a pretty damn decent album. I've heard his first one "Come In From The Rain" is meant to be better, anyone heard it? Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part III Also on a Deris / Helloween note, the band are supposed to be putting out a third Keepers album this year! How do you think it'll hold up? This'll be the first Keepers album to feature Deris, think he's up to it? As a massive Helloween / Deris fan, I can't wait! What's everyones' thoughts? Andy

Andi Deris's last solo album: Done By Mirrors It's a decent record. At least half the tracks are excellent and the other half decent.

Hey man, Grant and I have been getting things sorted and we've found a drummer. We're gonna try get a jam ASAP, when are you free? We're thinking along the lines of Cap Tom's, sometime within the next week? Andy

Love both, but I have to go with the Force on this one! Star Wars all the way!

I don't listen to a lot of heavy stuff. Megadeth would probably be about my heaviest band. I'm more into my melodic metal

This is sounding good, how about the three of us get a jam? Or do you guys want to wait for a drummer?

Hey man, would you be up for a jam? I'm a guitarist, 18, and I love loads of 80s Rock and Metal. I have plenty riffs and play mainly rhythm so that would leave you free to rip it up on lead guitar. If you want to hear any of my music: Demos Listen to Riffs 1 & 4 , Beauty & Heavy Metal Vibe if you want an idea of what I have to offer. Andy

Last week: Bruce Dickinson - Tyranny of Souls This week: Bruce Dickinson - Chemical Wedding (remastered) , Poison - Flesh & Blood

Just registered the other day, have added a few of you from this thread to friends, hope you don't mind. My Space Andy

Jam! Eugh! It's so sticky and fuckin' horrible!

Just got the re-master of "Chemical Wedding", it's fantastic! And the bonus tracks are actually really good! I really don't know why "Return Of The King" and "Real World" never made the original album! I'd have quite happily chucked "Machine Men" or "Trumpets Of Jericho" for them! Recommend to all Metal fans. If you have the original, it's still worth it for the 3 new tracks and sound quality. Andy

Hey, I might be up for this. Play lots of different styles and write riffs / music all the time: Demos / Riffs See what you think, Andy
