Apparently you can live like a king if you have mucho sterling though.Not a lot of Sterling but I think I'll still be fine.Did anyone else watch that Unchained America thing on channel 4 or more4?I want to buy a big car and go on a road trip now. Chances are good - I probably will!Does anyone know any good bands from Pittsburgh? Haven't come across a lot yet. There's a Brad Yoder who always pops up but he'll probably make me buy a gun if I ever see him live (joking)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humey Whilem Posted April 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Black Forest Black Sea (who have played Aberdeen a couple of times) have recently moved from Providence to Pittsburgh.(They've been on a Gravenhurst album etc)Thanks Alan, sounds brilliant! Has given me links to other great music related stuff from Pittsburgh too. Made me happier than I already was Christmas '97. My gestation period is colossal.Ah so it was you at that party in Heerhugowaard where I drank a bit too much, woke up next to a complete stranger and jumped out of a second floor window not to wake you up?You were a good kisser. That's all I remember. Oh and I vaguely remember a red spatula, was that you as well? It still tingles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Elvis Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Got to www.monroevillemall.comThis is where they shot the original Dawn of the Dead. George Romero shoots most of his zombie movies in and around Pittsburgh so might see some familiar spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
