[Marlies]

I'm Marlies and a fan and friend since about 3 years. Since a few weeks I can add "webmaster" to the list

In short I'm a 41 year young metalhead who also loves webdesign etc. I work part-time at our city hall (clerical job), I'm happily married to Nico (who is a RN), we have a cat called Robin. We're from Holland, but since we were in Canada last fall, I want to live there!!! We have learned a lot about emigrating and Canada in general, but we've postponed any decisions for a few years (we'll probably go back in 2006).

More info, pics, journal etc you can find on our homepage at http://truemetal.org/marlies

I'm not new to UM btw, I've been posting here for several years and I also have the Brainstorm and Morrigan's Pit forums hosted here.

 

[JonnyD]

The names Jonah and I absolutely love IE ... I have been Kicking myself since Progpower cause I was late to the show and Missed them ... Other Intrests include Listening to Metal and Playing Metal and thats about it

 

[George]

My name is George, I'm from Connecticut in the United States. Just to save time just re-read Celestial-Todd's list of bands and that's roughly what I listen to (you can add some black metal bands too). And also that last line by Todd is true of me too, except get rid of the Lord of The Rings, and also replace Futurama with the Simpsons (older episodes). Nice to see you all here.

 

[DarkShire]

No.

 

[HateWork]

name is Dave, i write cd reviews (though i've been slacking like mad) & do news updates on the site in my sig. 21 years old (22 in a couple weeks), love all forms of metal. been an IE fan for awhile, i got a bunch of people into them when they first played here (and tim will remember how different the crowds were. first show was apprx 50, second show was about sold out).

some bands i enjoy a lot: opeth, morbid angel, carcass, death, martyr, quo vadis, neuraxis, kalmah, ensiferum, dark tranquillity, etc. basically anything at all metal.

 

[Demonspell]

name: Bryan location: the greater NYC area age: 25 ties to the metal scene: besides posting here and attending concerts, none favorite bands: too many to list, but I gravitate mostly towards progressive rock and metal fan of Into Eternity since: Dead Or Dreaming's release

 

[Prog Maiden]

I'm Meg. I'm 19, turning 20 in April. I'm from Chicago, but I attend Temple University in Philadelphia. Knowing the metal scene is much better on the east coast certainly helped lure me out here.

I've been an Into Eternity fan since about the time of Dead or Dreaming's release date thanks to my friend Eric. I saw them live at Progpower last year (and was amazed that most of the band came up to ME and knew who I was

), and I'm looking forward to catching them on the Amorphis tour.

Some other favorite bands besides IE: Children of Bodom, Iced Earth, Mercenary, Meshuggah, Nevermore, Opeth, Soilwork, Adagio, Andromeda, Dream Theater, Evergrey, Pain of Salvation, Symphony X and Zero Hour.

I'm a guitarist in training, and some of my favorite guitarists (besides Tim of course ) include: Petrucci, Vai, Shawn Lane, Jason Becker, Michael Romeo, Mattias Eklundh, Jasun Tipton, Ron Thal (Bumblefoot).

[motocyco]

I'm Todd from Regina. I'm 31 and have been close friends and an occasional band mate with Tim since the early-mid 90's. We acctualy met while we were both auditioning for a metallica cover band way back in the day...lol. I am a bass player by trade but the tech/gear side of music is where my true passion lies. I'm also the guitar tech/gear bitch for IE while there here at home.
