What a first class title for a book! I wonder if I have a case for claiming royalties.
That excerpt reminds me of a book I heard about called something like 'The Life And Times Of Tristrum Burbank'. The book begins with Tristrum saying that he'd like to tell you about himself and his life, but to best do that, he'd better tell you about his parents....and their up bringing. This necessitates him telling you about his grandparents, and likewise, their parents.
Apprently this regression goes on for some time, and the book finally ends just as Tristrum is born.
Bizarre.

hmmmm...let me see if I can get my people to begin developing the screenplay. Halle Berry can play the love interest.
... er...of the Tristrum film, not the Ultima one.

It was thoroughly awesome, as expected, Liz..you need to go next year!!!
I didn't see all the bands (some on purpose, others not..
), but I can say that Reading Zero & Zero Hour (both bands I'm friends with) did awesome jobs opening the show each night..Edguy was freaking awesiome, Tobias is one hell of a showman (their set made my weekend, they were THE BAND I wanted to see)..and Angra was damn good even though I prefer Andre to Edu. Hit up the ProgPower Forum here if you want more detailed reviews..I'm no analyst, I just go to have fun.

kudos to people who do that to themselves purposely..do you have chipotle's out there on the left coast, Jax? gotta be careful of those as well
That's funny, someone at lunch one day at ProgPower was asking what chipotle was & no one knew..
So I'd have to say I don't know if we have em here or not..
Oh man Edguy was just awesome, Liz..they played "Avantasia" & I went apesh*t..hehe! What a great set. What a great weekend.
I haven't forgotten about sending you the Supershine songs either, gotta rip those later today & I'll get them on their way to you!

Chipotle Mexican Grill is a chain of "gourmet" taco and burrito places owned by McDonalds. If you ever find one and decide to eat there, avoid at all costs the hottest of the three salsas, omg it doesn't just decide to proceed through the digestive system, it burns through it :hotjump:

the burritos are actually pretty good - up to 20 oz in weight apiece! really, enough for lunch and then leftover snacks for later.

Man, seeing Zero Hour must have ruled. I checked them out after FataMorgana told me to. They're really cool.
Voice of Reason is absolutely incredible. I really like their approach to music; not filling it with lots of solo's, but using lots of really complex sections, very well played.
They really stand out in the prog genre.

Indeed, Lee..I've seen them twice now, this past weekend & again at the first ProgPowerUSA in Chicago last year. I'm also lucky enough to live real close to them, so once they start doing shows around here again I can go see them.

I'm pretty well caught up on my intended purchases except for the SA live cd. yesterday I bought Hammerfall's Crimson Thunder and Blind Guardian's Somewhere Far Beyond. I've only listened to them once apiece, obviously H-Fall is the more accessible and immediately likeable, tho dangerously close to Cheese overdose. BG will take another listen, I hear all the elements which are admirable except for obvious hooks, but since I know they are fond of dense productions perhaps it will take a few listens for those to emerge.
Pete: are you still going to the Dio/H-Fall/Kings X show?
