Good point, hellionick. Unfortunately, there is information out there to suggest that the US government has not been completely honest to its citizens with regard to the "war on terror." Especially disturbing is a statement by a group that included our vice president and several other current...

"Live Loud Alive" is available on DVD?!?!? Wow, where did you find that out? I've never seen it, but I have a boot DVD which has footage from that era plus the "Eurobounds" DVD from '84. It's a cheap VHS transfer I got on Ebay, but it's still cool to watch. Album-wise, my favorite is probably...

Update: I just got an email from Ebay today saying that the results of an auction I won three months ago are null and void. The seller and I were both happy with the results of the transaction, and nothing funny has happened with either of our accounts since then that I'm aware of. Anyone have...

That sounds cool! How is it different from a normal V? I've been playing for about 12 years now. My main axe is a custom-made B.C. Rich Eagle- phenomenal axe! Also got a used Les Paul Standard that looks pretty much identical to the one Steve Clarke had on the back cover of Def Lep's "On...

If people in this country knew anything about music other than what is spoonfed to them by the mass media, they would blow off those overpriced Stones shows and check out some of these bands that get less attention. Not knocking the Stones, but why the hell would anyone want to see them for any...

Thanks for the warning, my friend! I'm on Ebay all the time, so this is definitely a cause for concern to me. Haven't gotten any of those emails, though. Thanks anyway!:rock:

Yeah, looks like a cool setlist overall. When I saw them in New York awhile back, they didn't have time for a good, expansive setlist like that. One gripe: I wish they would bring back "Harder Than Steel." That was THE song that got me into the band, and I think it's been extremely underrated.

Personally, I think all the albums are good, but I'm surprised nobody has mentioned "Ample Destruction" yet. Sure, it's older and it's not as technically perfect and well recorded, but it kicks arse like few things on God's own earth! As for the albums you mentioned, obviously the new stuff is...

"Spellbound" is awesome! And if you like that album, I also highly recommend "Live At Nottingham Rock City," if you don't have it already. Great live performance from the "Spellbound" tour, and luckily not too hard to come by.

:flame:I'm becoming an ebay addict myself. Been buying quite a bit lately, but now I am starting to sell to make room for all the new shite I am garnering from Ebay. Here's an auction of mine if anyone's interested. I plan on posting more metal-related auction items soon...

Yeah, MasterPlan is pretty good. If you're expecting another Helloween, you might be a bit disappointed. But their stuff is pretty good in a different way, especially their first album, I'd say. But I actually like their singer Jorn Lande's solo stuff better, especially his latest, "Out To Every...

I listened to the SRR clip, and overall, I like it. The vocals are so-so, but the sound is quite good, and the guitars in particular sound pretty cool. Is this pretty much a self-produced effort? (IE, no record company & big shot producer involved?) If so, VERY well done. Being in a band, I know...

My sincere condolences to all involved. I hope no one on the board was at the site of the explosions. This is awful. And to make it worse, certain people in the States are already trying to milk this tragedy for their own gain, just like they did on September 11th, 2001. Unbelievable. I have...

Here's a link to a nifty little Maiden-related item I'm selling on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4743674417 :hotjump::hotjump::hotjump::hotjump::hotjump:

Hey folks! Never seen you two on the forum before (I've been away awhile), but you both seem cool. I mean, a Diamond Head thread going on this long with just the two of you? Shit, I thought I was just about the only one on here who still cared about 'em. :rock: Oh, and about Ebay, yeah, I am...
