Kind of saddens me, he is one of my favorite metal drummers. I've never heard any of his comedy work though, I'll have to check that out, hahah.

He gave up IE to have a one week tryout for stuttering John's job with Stern. The winner of the tryout gets 25 grand for 3 months. And he's not even guaranteed the position. He's up against some stiff competition! He should've stayed in IE. But if things dont work out....He wont have a hard time finding a gig. Oh well I'll see him at his last Iced Earth show tonight! \m/

Christy is ace though. He might have lost his edge drumming for Iced Earth however; it's child's play compared to what he had to do in Death.

Meh, hope he gets it. He's better off not in that shitty patriotic band anyway.

 

[Reign in Acai]

Hey hey sculpted dont get mad cus we won the war!

 

[Raumien]

Oh shut the fuck up, just because a band happens to do an original lyrical theme doesn't mean the automatically suck balls. But yeah, the shit he did with them was nothing compared to say, SOP.

It's good news that he quits IE. Thats gives him a possibility to find a band with musicians with skills as extreme as his are

...a skeleton walks into a bar, he orders a BEER and a MOP.

goodnight folks! don't forget to tip your waitress.

I thought he was a pretty good drummer, sad to see him leave for comedy but if his passion lies in comedy and entertainment and not in music then we should look up to him for that. It's better then sticking with the band if he isn't happy. Oh and i like Iced Earth's new album. But i'm american, i know a lot of people over in europe do not enjoy it as much. Perhaps patriotic themes are not a good idea for bands. Anyways yeah that's my 2¢

Now IE have another amazing drummer who will be limited to a pedantic, thumpa-thumpa style.

IE bore me.

 

[Griff7272]

man, one guy quits to work for the Dept of Homeland Defense, and another quits to do comedy. Do they have any other weird dreams still left in that band?

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Guitarist Ralph Santolla left officially left Iced Earth to become a "porno clown."

They should have done an entire album where they made fun of the french.

Q) Why are the streets in Paris lined with trees?
A) Because German soldiers like to march in the shade.

The skeleton one was better.

So I walk into lunch today and this kid is all sad, so I decide to ask him what's wrong.

Me: "What's up man?"
Him: "Nothing much..."
Me: "Well...why the long face?"
Him: "IT'S CALLED PROGRESSIVE GET IT RIGHT"

The new Iced Earth album should be based on this book:

[MetalHeadMarc]

dudes, i'm glade richy is leaving Iced Earth. I think jon wasn't letting him do what he wanted in the band. The drumming on glorius burden could be played by almost any metal drummer.

Ah, I see. So it's a book about the Greek?

"Jimmy, do you like movies about gladiators?"

The skeleton one was better.

"What's the matter frenchie? You got crepes in your ears?"
