Does anybody know if there are any bands opening at the Wantagh show tomorrow night? I can't seem to find any information anywhere.

Man, Ron sounds pissed off... and I like it! :heh: I can't wait to hear the rest of the album. My boyfriend won the opera contest he had a while back, so he got to sing on a few tracks of Abnormal. Lucky bastard!

Brian and I drove down to VA to catch the show last night (2.5 hours). Symphony X was amazing as usual. I'm just sorry we had to miss their encore because of how late it was and the long drive we had ahead of us. That's very cool that Russ and the others stuck around to chat. It seems like they...

Philly show was amazing. Russ sounded absolutely divine - I've seen 'em at least a dozen times now and he's never sounded better. I was so happy to hear Egypt and Divine Wings (if only 1/7th of it! :p) I'm very tempted to catch them at the Jaxx show next month now.

Oh sweet! Looks like I'll be getting a late birthday present. :D

Wow, my thread actually sparked an intelligent conversation. :p For those curious about Decibel's readership, it's primarily male (as you'd expect) and the average reader is like 30-35. And to give you an idea of the bands we cover, here's a list of bands we've recently had on the cover: Black...

As we get closer to the festival date and tickets still don't sell, if anyone would be willing to separate their tickets and sell me one just for Friday that would be fantastic. We've already got tickets for Thursday (and my set of tickets for Fri/Sat are taken care of), but my boyfriend has to...

Brian and I will be there. :D

Thanks guys! :) @symphonyxjapan: As an aspiring writer, I welcome criticism and appreciate honesty (as long as there are no personal attacks, of course). I understand where you're coming from, though I disagree that SymX is power metal--and so did Romeo in my interview. Actually he doesn't...

Normally I don't like to toot my own horn but this is my first article published in an actual print magazine, not to mention on one of my favorite topics! :) It's only a 450-word profile on them written in a way to attempt to appeal to more extreme metal fans (as Decibel is an extreme metal...

Got the special edition in the mail today. I must say this DVD is pretty disappointing. What a shame that we finally get some live footage of the band, but the sound quality is so bad I can't even make it through an entire song. The Odyssey Part II was the only one of the bunch that sounded...

No no, they ARE Brian's. :lol: I have seen men's athletic socks like that in stores. I don't like them that low on the ankle personally. You should have been at the restaurant to witness the sock signing. Funny stuff.

I'm working on it, as well as my SymX profile for Decibel. I'll get it posted soon, perhaps this weekend. :lol: I forgot to comment on that before. You think I would ruin a pair of good socks with Moliti's signature? :p (Love you Matt! :Saint:) The socks aren't girlie though, I swear. No...

Also, I thought it was interesting that Romeo pointed out that when Russ was recording in the studio one of his friends had actually betrayed him somehow, so that's why he sounds so convincing on the more aggressive songs like The Serpent's Kiss.

Shit, that sucks. I just ordered this from Ken not too long ago too.
