What's the catch?

[md976]

Damian, Damian. What have you done to us? You've made us all cry! You are going to be honorary president of heartbreak club.
I'm just joking. I wish that there were more composers like you. Who write music with soul and emotions. Carry on writing good music, man!!!!

Damian, Damian. What have you done to us? You've made us all cry! You are going to be honorary president of heartbreak club.

LOL!

Is anyone else worried that the Threshold forum is turning into the D.Wilson appreciation society? Should we start a "We love Karl Groom" thread before all the rest of the band get jealous?

I dig Richard West and Johanne James :Smug:

 

[md976]

You know what, Gilbo, i think that you're completely right!!! So, i decided to write a little poem dedicated to Karl And Richard.
I don't know if rhyme is good, after all i'm from Serbia and i don't speak English.
I'm not a poet, but what the hell!!!

when you feel sad and when hope is lost
and you feel hurt for things that hurt the most
there are two guys that write music that is good
that will make you to be in excellent mood
to feel joy and hope and to be inspired
to be lively as a rocket fired
to leave broken dreams behind
a new way in life to find
to have strenght to achieve every dream
and to feel like you're in some realm
like a king with golden crown
and to fly again when you feel let down
music that everything worst in you turns into best
thank you Mr. Groom and Mr. West

Thanks md976, that's very kind of you.

I dig Richard West and Johanne James :Smug:

And you too, of course Rob.

That poem could have fitted somewhere on Dead Reckoning...like when the pilot comes out of the storm.

 

[Gilbo]

I'm not going to try and compete with the poetry. (Which is clearly very Threshold inspired!) I couldn't write anything that good and I'm a native speaker.

So I'll just go with:

MAN I LOVE THIS BAND!!!

And as no-one else has yet, I'll take a moment to appreciate Mr Steve Anderson, who clearly achieves the two key objectives of a bass player: (1) Groove very hard indeed (2) Stand somewhere near the back of the stage and radiate cool a lot

 

[LavagesOfTime]

I won't dig Steve until the day he'll switch from the awful Trace Elliot amps to the glorious Ampeg (or anything else actually, I hate trace elliot!)

 

[Gilbo]

I love Trace Elliot amps. They rumble, man! Makes my bass sound like an approaching earthquake...

 

[md976]

I don;t want to turn this forum into poet club, but if i wrote poem dedicated to Richard and Karl i felt obligated to do the same thing for Damian.

for the poeople whose hearts are cold
and those who aren't very emotional and bold
only hope and right choice
are Damian Wilson's music and voice
that will outcast all your fears
and your coldness turn in tears
will learn you about love and kindness
and wipe out hatred and blindness
make your heart to be soft and tame
after this expirience nothing will be the same
again you will be like innocent child
and you will love deeply and wild
that's why Damian Wilson is the right man
and you will become his greatest fan

 

[Damian Wilson]

Thanks md976, I don't think anyone has ever written a poem about me before

 

[Cello]

Keep the poetry flowing, md976, the guys appreciate it greatly and it's a good read!

How about this?

His music is true inspiration
His message understands every nation
It's about peace, understanding and love
It's so beautiful as a white dove
So people all over the world
If you feel lonely, broken and cold
Buy Damian's Cd's and listen what he has to say
Cause that's the only and the brightest way
To change everything and to be enthusiastic
That's why his music is fantastic
