First time poster, long time reader. Just the other day, I had a most metal moment and it was so epic, I felt that I should share it:
I got into a car accident the other day while listening to AA. It was the last chorus of Fate of Norns, and some jerk pulled out in front of me and smashed the front end of my jeep. It was an epic moment as I was rocking out, the dramatic chorus played and I felt an incredible jolt as I got hit and, no lie, several blackbirds flew overhead and I thought I died.
I didn't die, and when I told my friends (non-metal heads, they don't even listen to hard rock, just wuss-puss mainstream pop and boyband shit), they didn't understand the awesomeness of it. That's when I decided that after a year of reading the AA forums, I should join and start talking with people who actually get me as a metal chick. I also realized that I need new friends.
I also recently found out that I was adopted, and that I was actually born in Norway and that I'm closer to Viking blood than I thought (my adoptive parents are of Norwegian and Irish decent, but my blood parents are some unknown Norwegian people).
Another reason why I thought I needed to post here is that when I discovered AA, I had never been so blown away by a band before in my life. I had never been so quickly sucked in by the music and the culture of any music before either. I had to know more about AA so I came here. I wanna let all of you know that you all rock so hard, and that this is where I come for my metal fix.
I hope I have not angered the gods (all of you) because I post on another forum (hockey related) and I hate when new members come in and start stupid threads and things. I searched for a thread where new members introduce themselves, but found nothing. So, here I am, meet me and rip me apart or love me (us metalchicks are pretty badasss, I can handle it).
As for this thread: Let it be what it is or, share your own AA epic moment stories (I like the sound of the latter and I also searched and didn't find one of these either).
There. Done.
