[theodyssey]

i'm going to get a mini-disc player today i think. I need to do my research first though...

 

[ShredManWalking]

Ooo, tell me how it works. I am fascinated by new technology!

I love my mp3 player because I can have like tons of cd's saved in it so wherever I go, it doesn't matter what I'm in the mood for since I got it all with me But I have to charge it up a lot, and it gets mad when I drop it...

MD is a kind of a cross-breed between disks and CDs. A miniature CD in a durable plastic casing. It uses compression to fit up to four CDs worth of music onto one disc. (But at that point the audio quality starts to really suffer...)

MtG rocks.

That's why mp3 players RULE! Come on people, see the light! Come to my side!

I didn't end up getting the mini-disc player today because they didn't have what i need. I am not disputing that mp3 player is better amanda, but that won't work at all for what i'm needing it for. I'm not using it for music, i want it to record interviews and stuff, and it's supposed to be a really great way to do it... it came highly recommended by mark.

 

[The Metal Chick]

ah i see. then i retract my statements

Anybody know what ever happened to Macey? Did she just leave or was there some argument?

Well, I saw Symphony X for the first time last night and it was amazing. The would have been good enough, but they played the friggin Odyssey too. I really like how they did the orchestral part on that. Other highlights were Smoke and Mirrors, Sea of Lies, Wicked (even though I don't like the song, I admit it's GREAT live), and Inferno. What a night. Oh yeah, and Devin sucked.

After the show, despite it being in a small venue with a small turnout, the band was swarmed with fans holding Sharpies and album booklets. I briefly met each member, but I didn't get autographs. Who needs that bullshit? I just shook their hands.

Didn't want to start another concert review thread.

[Mr. Shred-ididle]

and im pissed off!

 

[crapola]

and im pissed off!

and why would that be?

 

[arglebargle]

Because he can't get a girlfriend. XD XD XD XD

 

[Mr. Shred-ididle]

no, it's because *my* girlfreind (yeah, so i own you arglebargle ) pranked me, so my ego was going all yngwie-like, but Im over it now. XD XD XD

Now im all pissed off becuase I want to get a new amp. I dunno whether to get a Mesa Mark IV head or a Mesa Dual Rectifier, both with a 2X12 cabninet. But they add up to around $6000 here in Australia. And i don't have that money, so it will take a while of serious saving and not spendind a cent on CD's for ages!

 

[theodyssey]

cool, cool. Hooray for drunken matt, and uim... yeah... hooray.

Hey guys... A confession to make. I bought "V" today. Problem is, I waited 3 years. I have been living off of a burnt copy of the CD until today. Now that I own the cd, listened to it all the way through and read along in the liner notes, it is like a coming of age. This album is pure majesty, and listening to it today (the real thing) I have realized it yet again. Now, I have purged all my sins, and have detonated the burnt copy!!! RAISE YOUR FISTS TO THE SKY AND LISTEN TO "V"!
