    I'm sorry to say......

    I think it is all a bit lame to stuff bands into boxes. There are definitely differences between major categories like Country and Metal, but past that, who cares? If you like what you hear, what difference does it make if the music fits a defined subcategory? And screw subjectivity. I'm so sick...

    Will Smith at Ozzfest

    That's cool. I like people that aren't afraid to cross boundaries, no matter how imaginary they may be. My hat's off to Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

    What do Sy-X fans occupy themselves with?

    I fill my time mostly with work(which sucks). I'm a professional software developer. When I do have spare time, I hang out with my wife, play World of Warcraft, play guitar(21 years), exercise, eat(why I exercise), and other everyday mundane life stuff. I'm always listening to music. I go...

    Dream Theater - Octavarium

    So far, I'm liking Octavarium. It's more intriguing than ToT. I'll give a few more listens definitely. It's disappointing when a band that you like diverges from your taste, but how can anyone fault an artist for doing what they want? I agree that a producer could possibly make the songs...

    Got Twilight in Olympus today

    Twilight is my favorite SX album in a tie with V. I find those two the most listenable throughout. I don't skip any songs on either.

    Official Gigantour Announcement/Discussion (updated 7/18)

    sweet. They are coming to Phoenix, though I don't really care for Cricket Pavillion. It's 111 degrees today... July 23... my guess is either it's going to be monsooning, sweltering, or both. Joy! I'm there, regardless!

    What do you play?

    I play guitar(a couple of Jacksons, through a Johnson Millenium combo), drums(9-piece Pearl kit, Zildjian cymbals), sing, and dabble with keyboards. I used to play bass many moons ago, but I no longer have a bass to practice on.

    Octavarium Clips

    Listened to the clips... Couldn't really tell much except that I thought it sounded like ToT(I didn't like ToT). I'm still hoping for the something good.<crosses fingers>

    Theres a guy in kingdom of heaven who looks like Russel Allen

    I didn't think he looked like Russ. http://www.imdb.com/gallery/ss/0320661/Ss/0320661/KOH-530.jpg?path=pgallery&path_key=Csokas,%20Marton So what did you think of the movie? I didn't think it was one of Ridley's better movies, but it wasn't horrible either. The editing was all over the place...
