QUOTE (In A Tidewater Surge @ Jun 1 2011, 06:34 PM)I'm sorry, the intended purpose of my poll was to take 2 of the most persecuted groups in history and see how they would fare on a fanboard with a fairly large range of people. I suppose I didn't go about it the best way I could have, but the fact that nobody voted seems to indicate that the folks on the board are rather accepting, and not prone to antagonizing others.

It was absolutely incredible to see Neil up close about 10-15 feet away in an intimate setting. He talked about touring, his new book and then dissected Moving Pictures track by track among other things. It was an unbelievable experience that I will never forget. Wow,you are so lucky to get in on that how did you get tickets?,i would of thought demand would of been huge. My friend got the tickets. I think he just requested them online. And I'm sure the demand would be huge, but I'm not sure how many people actually find out about stuff like this. It's not like it's a concert where it's announced everywhere. I certainly had no idea until after my friend got the tickets.

QUOTE (vprtrls @ May 4 2010, 02:00 PM) PT put on a great show Sunday in Detroit. Stephen was baffled at the lameness of the crowd though (as was I). It seemed to me that 95% of the crowd were first timers at the show and for the music. He said something about "demographics". Certainly Detroit was weak compared to the Chicago stories. Whomever decided to put seats down in the normally General Admission area put a major damper on the crowd. Everybody was sitting on their butts from my vantage point. I rocked as hard as I could from the section above main floor then did mainfloor for the encores. No way to bust to the front area. I wish I would have made it inside earlier to see Big Elf. The lead guy and other band dude was hanging out in the lobby after PT finished and was signing CD's and chilling with fans, pretty cool. I was trying to unload an extra sweet ticket and as usual, ate it and gave it away to a random fan. I did luck out after the show as I walked to the front of the stage and I asked a roadie for a pick, and he gave me a greyish/green pick out of a little cup attached to a mic stand that Stephen used. The pick was certainly used and abused with all the heavy riffing. Geekville Yeah, Steven was saying at the Buffalo show how the Detroit crowd was a bunch of zombies wearing King Crimson t-shirts.

Going tonight in Buffalo! This will be my 4th time seeing them.

Molson - Section 201, Row R ACC - Centre Floor, 21 Rows Can't wait!

After the Godfather and Goodfellas, what more do you need?... My entire Italian family and I would disagree.

QUOTE (Xanadu93 @ Dec 1 2009, 03:28 PM) Xannydew needs more Radiohead. I think I'm going to go chronologically (yes, I've heard about Pablo Honey and how it's so unimpressive) just for fun. But like I've said before, $30 is a bit expensive for one item - but for three discs, I think it's worth it. I don't know which ones you have, but don't get Pablo Honey until you have the rest, save for Amnesiac.

Freaks and Geeks was instantly the first answer to pop in my head. It's one of the greatest shows ever. Also, JPod lasted only one season. It was a Canadian show based on the wonderful and hilarious book of the same name by Douglas Coupland. It's about a team of video game designers whose last names all start with J. http://sharetv.org/images/jpod_ca-show.jpg
