You are very fortunate to have seen that concert. I like The Camera Eye very much too. There's lots of live versions of it on youtube. Losing It, Natural Science, Jacob's Ladder, Hemispheres, Double Necks in Xanadu. What an epic night that was.

There are very few UK record stores outside one chain and they don't stock the sets in-store or online anymore. Especially as HMV might well be going into administration... Not sure about online though. :sigh: I will miss HMV. I was sad when HMV left Canada, but then Sunrise Records took over, six months later. They are 75% music, 25% random merch, complete opposite of HMV.

I still am a massive fan of the books and whilst I like the movies, the changes throughout really piss me off. For all the hard work put into these movies, the can come off so lazy. It took me three days to get through Goblet of Fire, and I'm not sure if I want to carry on. The books are ingrained in my mind, and there are way too many changes that make me shake my head. No quidditch world cup footage, Dolby didn't give Harry the gillyweed,, and so on, that it makes it hard to want to carry on. Exactly my issue. I really love the audio books as well as the illustrated editions. Visually, tonally and pretty much in all other respects, the Potter movies let me down. Again I enjoy them, but I have to detach myself from the books when watching them. I think I'm going to stop here, at Goblet of Fire, and pull out the paperbacks again. Start another journey from the beginning. The one that we know and love. They did a commendable job with Order Of The Phoenix. It's the shortest in the series, but based on the longest book. And yet somehow it stays fairly faithful to the novel in a way Half Blood Prince (The series nadir) doesn't. Order of the Phoenix has Umbridge. I can't stand her in the books, not sure I'd want to watch her torture Harry on screen.

I'll be asking for this for my birthday.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I was a huge Harry Potter fan when the books were being released, picking up each book on day 1 and have read them all multiple times. Loved the first two movies, then PoA came out, and they had a new Dumbledore. I couldn't handle the change and never watched another Harry Potter movie. On Thursday I started a marathon and plan on watching all of them. Goblet of Fire tonight.

Judas Priest are now in the studio working on a new album
Cygnus 2112 replied to treeduck's topic in Music Of The Spheres
It's also on a weekend so they must imagine folks will turn out. Also surprised at no PA or OH shows either Yet they're hitting seemingly every city in British Columbia. Maybe that's where the strongest concentration of Priest fans is in the whole world?? I highly doubt it. Prince George never has big name bands come by that aren't country. And I landed two tickets row 2 on the floor!!!!!- 1787 replies

Cygnus 2112 replied to treeduck's topic in Music Of The Spheres
HOLY f**k, THEY`RE ACTUALLY COMING TO PRINCE GEORGE. Our last metal shows were Five Finger Death Punch, Volbeat and Avenged Sevenfold, all within six months in 2013. We also had Motorhead come to town back in 2005 or 2006. I heard the announcement 6 hours ago and still don't fully believe it.- 1787 replies

Revisiting Every Rush Album In Order: Permanent Waves (1980)
Cygnus 2112 replied to Segue Myles's topic in Rush
Freewill and Limelight are two songs I can never listen to without being disappointed. They are both amazing songs, that I was never able to see live on the last two tours (3 shows). -

Hemisphere's 40th Anniversary Edition - Pre-Orders Now available.
Cygnus 2112 replied to Jag2112's topic in Rush
This is the guy who slagged off Rush and any other band be likes to make Ghost appear to be the second coming of Christ lol You're right though. I was looking forward to this release until I actually looked at the contents. HAHAHAHAHA!!! How have I ever slagged off RUSH for GHOST? Hilarious! Just because I hate "Vapor Trails?" No band is perfect. I told Tobias right to his face one fateful night in Reno in 2015 that he and his band were now my new RUSH since Rush retired that same year. Tobias actually shook my hand and bowed to me for that statement. He was flattered and totally respectful and amazing! WTF??? No band on the Earth will ever touch RUSH. Keep listening to your Nightwish and other bands in that same genre. Happiness to you and your lover. I'm going to Toronto baby! No ill will to anyone! If you guys and gals don't like my midnight banter than fuckking IGNORE ME! DUH! RUSH ON! Everyone on the Earth is a hypocrite. Amen Oh. Maybe I misunderstood? You used to say Rush is dead and it always sounded like you meant as in, since VT or something as everything seemed to be negative haha! (Earl please note I am not intending to fall out or provoke you. Your messages are currently quite terse and repetitive and irritating to read and it's hard to know what to talk about or how to respond when you prattle on as you do. On a really random note, do you know Mekong Delta? They are amazing prog thrash and thanks to Bathory, I rediscovered the album I love and am hearing more. They are fantastic! They are from the eighties). Mekong Delta? Heading over to YouTube now to check them out. -

Cygnus 2112 replied to HalfwayToGone's topic in Rush
I received the Clockwork Angels ultimate deluxe version from their site and it was missing a DVD. I sent an email saying that the 2nd DVD was missing, didn't get a response but had a disc arrive in the mail four days later. -
Bands You're Obsessing Over Right Now

I looked these guys up on Wikipedia and have noticed that they've changed singers three times. How much has their sound changed because of that? -
Bands You're Obsessing Over Right Now

the CLICK IT! in caps convinced me to check out this video. It kicks serious ass, and I now have their collection in iTunes -
Being the only person at work with a different shift than everybody else. I get Wednesday and Sunday off. Everybody else gets Sat/Sun or Sun/Mon. Monday is a holiday, so my boss came up us at closing today and said he's closing the shop on Saturday. That'll make four days off this week, and I'll only get paid for one, thus missing a day on my cheque.

THANKS. Is there a Nascar thread this year? I've been switched to Sundays and Wednesdays off so I haven't been watching any races. Can't spend my one day off in front of the t.v.

Not fitting into new clothes I’m trying on doesn’t bother me. Not fitting into my usual everyday clothes might bother me a little though, especially if it’s some article of clothing I particularly like. Realizing you've gone up a waist size after being the same size for 10 years is a little bothersome.
