    The Autumn Offering/Mushroomhead - Durty Nellies 10/23/08

    I think everyone needs to see TAO at least once for a laugh. :heh:

    Kansas City Power Metal Fest - date and first 3 bands announced

    This is WAY overdue, but I wanted to say "Thank you" on behalf of Twelfth Gate for bringing us down there to Jodi, Joe, and Steve. Also, thanks to Ian, the best taxi driver/metal brother a band could have ever asked for. Seriously, this guy really took care of us and made sure we had a blast...

    Cavalera Conspiracy: Who's going?

    Igor said he "didn't need a Sepultura reunion." Logical step or not, this might be the closest we get to that. http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=100908 I know someone who went to the NYC show and he said they played about 55 minutes...

    OK...any opinions on the new Priest album?

    This is how I imagine the initial conversations about writing this record went: Rob: OK, Glenn and KK, I have this FABulous idea (loose wrist flapping, crosses legs likes he’s sitting down for tea). How about we write a concept album about Nostradamus, with plenty of orchestral...

    Twelfth Gate's Set at Powerfest 08

    Hey, this is Aaron, vocals for Twelfth Gate. On behalf of Twelfth Gate, I owe you all an apology that were in attendance at Powerfest for our performance. Those of you that have seen us before know we can deliver a very good live show both in sound and stage presence. The night we played, a...

    Was the 5.4 earthquake a warning for Powerfest?

    I work in the loop and coworkers in Hyde Park were awakened by it. One of them described it as "My bed started shaking like one of those vibrating ones in the cheap motels!"

    The People V.S. Pearl Room

    Is that the same lane that had the giant piece of plastic taped up there to catch the water leaking in from the roof??

    New Chicago Venues

    I thought that was the same area. I take the green line to work and I remember seeing the sign for The Bottom Lounge there. I had wondered if they knew what neighborhood they had moved into. There was a news report showing a lot of violence around a club that used to be there called Chromium...

    New Chicago Venues

    The new location is 1375 W. Lake St., which is just east of the Ashland stop on the green line. It's under the El tracks and close to the Cobra Lounge.

    WASP @ The Pearl Room March 2nd

    Thats what I read about- a backing track being used. Thats not the same as lip syncing. It's used for harmonizing, and just like you said, enhancing choruses. WASP has a ton of vocal layers in their music. If he did lip sync for the Idol tracks, I can't say I'd be all that surprised. The...

    Helloween / Gamma Ray US TOUR

    Pink Bubbles wasn't bad. It certainly wasn't as bad as The Chameleon. I seriously can't think of much that gets worse than that. I think the best track was the bonus track on the Japanese version of Bubbles- Shit and Lobster. And I have to agree TOTO was a a moment they really haven't...
