The Professor was right
No TtLG? Glad i didn't spend the 30 bucks last night. Wish i had seen the show, but I think i woud have been too crushed at them not playing it
hey jax I was wondering where at slims in SF you will be in case I want to say hi?
No way! I don't mean for SX, I didn't feel like their soundcheck was all that bad, I've seen their soundchecks be 10x worse! I meant the horrible debacle that was the Into Eternity soundcheck. Was Cleveland really worse?
Ahh I meant the soundchecks as a whole (all 3 bands)..and yes, Cleveland was really worse.
i totally want to hear Walls of Babylon again. was a definite highlight of the 2007 show.
PORTLAND SHOW!
feel free to SUCK MAH BALLZ. '
so symphony x is my favorite band. and it started at 9 (on thurs) and i got there at fuckin 4. i was eating at this mexican place right next door to the venue and i could see the buses and shit hoping to see any members. i saw michael come out. and i was like shit!!!! i ran out, and i was like "michael! you got a sec?" and i asked him about his old esp mIIs, apprently he got them in japan. then we talked about his caparison. then we moved onto engl. he uses the fireball and the powerball live now. he said fuck the vetta :rollin
he was so easy to talk to. greatest moment of my life haha. he said he had to call his family so i went to go wait out in front by the doors.
so i wait for a million hours and talk to some peeps, then my friends nicky (guy) and natalie(girl) came. and we went in. i was first in, got an odyssey shirt and got right in front in the left where i knew michael would be.
into eternity was awesome. epica was lame.
so symphony x came on...
set list:

the "encore" (which was on the set list)
eve of seduction

fucking amazing playing. i got tons of vids of him doing all the solos. i fucking scored one of his picks and the set list. there were these three girls that went up and were like all humpin on russell and they were really annoying they were up there so long. i looked to michael and i shrugged and said "what the fuck?" and he stopped playing and started laughing and he was like "yeah what the fuck is he doing?". there was a lot of interaction between him and i (sounds gay but...)
afterwards i waited and i met the bassist, mike lepond. he was really tight and he was telling me about how he played with ross the boss from manowar, who was one of his idols. he signed my odyssey cd book thing. then michael came out again, i was honestly the only one actually TALKING to him. i asked him about his pedalboard, which i thought was custom but it turns out its a TC G-system. which was fuckin awesome. but its so expensive :rollin he said he liked the g-major but he wanted that in pedal form so he got the g-system. i told him how much i learned from his the guitar chapter and he said he wants to do another instructional vid. he said he was getting cold and he signed my odyssey thing and that was that
best night of my life.

i have to agree with this statement. i much rather hear Babylon than Sea of LiesWhat happened to Walls Of Babylon??
What happened to Walls Of Babylon??
