...and NO, I do not have perfect pitch and I have not done the two seconds of research necessary to determine whether they are even in the same key.

I just had to mention that every time I have logged onto my new work computer (for over a year now), I immediately start singing in my head: "When there's no love No hate in this world......" Apparently my system is not setup using the default Windows sounds, so if you have no idea what I'm...

Kelly Cox, the drummer for A Thousand Shields recently won the Guitar Center Drum Off in Greensboro, NC. He will be competing in the District Finals at Guitar Center - Atlanta tomorrow evening (Tuesday). The solos are slated to start at 7pm, so come out and support all the great up and coming...

FYI, Jeremy will have several copies of this CD on sale at the Heaven and Hell Records booth at PP USA! It is also available on his distribution website http://www.soundsofpurgatory.com/ and also http://www.athousandshields.com Jeremy also has Blacksmith stopping by the...

Thanks to Justin Gaines for the review! I know I'm slightly biased, but I think these tunes deserve some attention. Darren

I was just quoting the trailer...thought it was funny. Don't worry, I myself am in a Christian Prog Metal band, but I like to think I have a sense of humor. Darren

"Christian Metal?...Isn't that kinda like being a Jewish Nazi?"

I discovered this last night as well. Now I cannot go because I have a gig Saturday night! I can't imagine it's Rush's fault but I have no problem imagining the Greensboro Coliseum is somehow responsible! That whole city is screwed up. It was interesting seeing them discuss it on local news...

Shameless plug...I play bass in this band...feel free to critique. A few of you saw us open for Sonata Arctica @ Volume 11 in Raleigh last May. We have since completed and released our CD "Portrait." www.athousandshields.com www.facebook.com/athousandshields

This is purely a joke and I admittedly had to look up the guys name (taking some of the cleverness out of the humor), but what about Brad Roberts from Crash Test Dummies? :dopey:

As Jeremy pointed out, he just got us (A Thousand Shields) confirmed to open that show, so we were most disappointed. It was the best news and the worst news our band could receive within a few ours of each other. I'm just glad we heard the news before I submitted the order for the Napalm...

I liked it much more than I would have thought had someone tried to describe it to me first. However, for the rest of the day, I'm going to hear in my head that one guy that sounds like he's going "gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble...." during the fast part!

Who is coming? This show is especially important to me and not only as a fan this time. I am the bass player for A Thousand Shields and we have been given the opportunity to provide 'local support' for the show this Saturday. We will be the lone prog band attempting to warm up a crowd waiting...

Sorry...posted twice...slow computer today

Freak Guitar - Detroit Rock City

Damn tax season...I'd love to go to Jaxx, but even though it's a Friday night, that time of year...there's no way I'm getting off work that early to drive up there from NC! Too bad they turn north instead of heading down to Charlotte or something. Well, I guess I'll just wait until September...

Am I the only one concerned about the fact that so many bass players seem to be dying lately? I hope this trend does not continue. What a sad year in the world of musicians! Darren

Tax evasion by musicians is not limited the to "Christian" music market! I am in a Christian band. We haven't made any money to report yet. However, I was in a cover band for a few years up until recently, so I got to know a lot of people making a lot of money playing music, and from the...

I think someone should make a move, "Harold & Kumar look for Night Castle," where those two guys drive around for 5 years looking for this CD that has been promised for the last 5 TSO tours! Kidding aside, I'm looking forward to this. Now...if they can just do a summer concert tour with DSO...

I'm Darren from Winston Salem, NC (USA). Accountant by day, bass player by night! I've been a fan of CM since PPUSA VI. It was my first PP and they were the first band I saw perform. That really set the bar high for every band that I've seen there since then. I am some what of a...
