Skid Row Rocks!! :rock: Ben

Here's the gayest picture of me ever, taken last Saturday at a bbq in Chicago, the day before I saw MAIDEN again. :D Ben

Hopefully he'll stay. Ben

My only question is, what exactly makes lyrics good or bad? I mean, anything can be cheesy, especially when it's just words on a page. Put music to it, and even the dumbest lyrics can sound bad ass when the vocalist is putting real emotion into them. Personally, I like IE's lyrics. Then...

Dude, you of all people here should know that I never, NEVER come up with anything on my own. Well, except for one particular story from the old days on the Iced Earth.com boards. :D :hotjump: :hotjump: Ben

I missed that St Anger story. Anyone got a link? Ben

Woo Hoo!! Unfortunately, I didn't see any of them at Best Buy. I'll have to look again sometime. Thanks man! Ben

Ugh. Just when I think things can't get any dumber on the internet, they do. You guys, there's an old saying you may've heard before: Arguing on the internet is like playing in the special olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded. Give it up. Ben

Jon's already written the music to it. I don't know if Hansi's written his parts yet. I think Jon talked about recording at least the drum parts for IE and D&W simultaneously, so that shit might be done. I dunno. Ben

:lol: At least Ripper's never been booed off the stage in a fucking stadium. And if he did, he'd probably have more class than to call the crowd a bunch of faggots and challenge them to come up on stage and fight him. Funny how he said that, after he turned down a boxing match with Scott...

:D:D BTW, your sig is hilarious! Ben

What? You mean there aren't other threads about this? Whoa! :D Just kidding. I think they'll be okay with Tim. It's a little reminiscent of John Greely, but better. Ben

Personally, I like the newer stuff. I dunno, I just find that I get more out of Dark Saga, Something Wicked and Horror Show than I do the older stuff. I also find that on the first three albums, I skip over a lot more songs than I do on the newer stuff. I guess I'm just weird though. I'd...

:lol: It's all in good humor. And, you gotta admit, Jon does take himself quite a bit more seriously than he should. Ben

I like these songs, but then again, I'm a sheep. :hotjump: Personally, I think The Reckoning is the weakest of these three, but still pretty damn good. The only other point I wanna make is basically touching up on what Iced In Flames said. Matt is most likely not going to rejoin Iced...
