Nugent would probably have one or two of these. Except that the build quality is probably shit.

Lower Decks is pretty good once again. IDK what they are building towards wit hthe overarching plot - but I suspect there will be a nice tie-in to something else right at the end. My guess is they will visit the JJ-Verse. Animated Emo-Kirk and Emo-Spock might be fun.

There aint no doubt about it we were doubly blessed....

Well to be fair, at that time there wasn't a lot of doubt about a SIG40. It was a matter of when. not if. All the 40's up until that point had sold well. The 'prediction' could have been based on inside info, but just as likely could have been a reasonable guess. Then SIG40 sucked. Thus the whole future of the concept is in doubt. Time will tell.

Today for the first time in about 15 years. I got a blue Star Trek TOS tunic, and sewed on a set of semi-authentic commander rank braids. Semi-authentic because i bought them from a lady who's worked on the New Voyages fan series. I'm not Spock... but rather a Commander in the Science Division. :)

RIP Lady.

That's my guess. Same Old Shit, new packaging...

YAWN

The 4 album thing has to be the most random crap I've seen in a long time.

There is a technical problem with the video if I remember correctly. Which I think is why only half was released.

Did I miss an announcement? What box set?

Maiden and Metallica both have grown into prog tendencies .

Maiden Lerxst.

The OTHER thing I noticed and forgot to say earlier. Whoever is doing the marketing decided to put the swag and trinkets out before the supposed release. Seems to me that it's an attempt to milk us. Like, don't announce release stuff, so we presumably spend money on the swag and bullshit...THEN hit us with the music. So we spend more money.... f**k that. PS: Admins: You really need to unblock the word f**k. It's becoming more and more appropriate. ;)

I have no doubt that they will put out more product. The question is will it be exciting or just a rehashes of the same stuff that's already been recycled? Exciting doesn't mean "more trinkets" Exciting means live or rare audio material. We're getting older and de-cluttering, in general. Leave off with the 'exclusive' crap.

Hey, did you hear about Phil? He joined The Dead. It's fun to reuse a 30 year old Jerry joke.

That motifs poster has the first album on it and an establishment year of 1971...but no mention of Rutsey. That's bullshit.

That stuff they have for sale - what an absolute load of crap. More suck. We're getting further and further from the glory days for sure.

All the dollars.

Triumph dude. Triumph. :)

That's probably why they spiced up CTTH with that extended jam. Just to give a cute little song some life. In later tours, it was so obvious how absolutely bored they were with Sawyer. You could see geddy forcing himself to articulate the lyrics properly. In the Mood did not fit the P/G tour at all... I get that they wanted to represent the first record... but that song didn't belong in a 'high tech set'. They'd have been better off with Finding My Way.... just like they did years later at the start of R30. IMHO.

Oh f**k, this is really really sad. I have a couple of boots of him opening for KKs Priest just a year ago over in the UK. He sounded really good and strong. Was even talking about how he was close to getting out of the wheelchair. RIP. \m/

Because whoever the creative person for album special releases is, they phoned it in.
