I went to HMV today... was trying not to buy anything...but I randomly found "Every Move A Picture" !!!! I was soooo excitied! Thanks for telling me about this band Moonie. Also grabbed Chad Van Gaalen's newest album- Skelliconnetion. I was looking for heart and I just about fainted haha...HiLL has their own section now at HMV with a couple cds there. I just think thats sooo damn cool.

"Your arms off!" "No it's not!" "Then whats that?" *looks on the ground at the arm* "I've had worse!" "You liar!" "Come on you pansy!"

Deep Purple- Highway Star

I dreamed I was on stage with Heart...with my guitar playing along with them.... and Nancy was like..."right on girl!"

QUOTE (Slime @ Oct 15 2006, 02:57 PM) I don't understand why the movie makers felt the need to shorten GOF to under 2.5 hours (actual running time 2:27). OOTP better be at least three whole hours long otherwise there will not be enough screen time to develop any emotional impact for the death of the one that dies in the movie (just in case some of y'all haven't gotten that far).I'll probably skim through the series in the days leading up to book seven, but no more than that since I've already read each book at least seven times. Next book, of course, just can't come soon enough! It's gonna be SUCH a trip to read, because it's the first series I've ever followed. In some ways, I don't want it to be over but I know that Voldemort needs to be done gangster style. I agree oh and Freedom fighter...I would (because this is what i'm doing) read it months before. Therefore it's kinda refreashed but kinda not.

AWESOME!!!!!!! Such an awesome series! I love it!

QUOTE (Moonraker @ Oct 8 2006, 04:34 AM) Wow, they are actually getting the right idea to fight piracy. Unlike the RIAA who sues thier customer base, most of which are people that dont have a hope to pay for what they are being sued for, these guys are actually conceeding that they are way overcharging for thier product. I wonder how well cds would sell if they dropped the price from 18.99 for a new release back down to 10. I concur.

Here is my trip! It was f***ing awesome! Nancy saw me!!!!!!! Crazy Is what all I could say about 5 hours after the concert. I'll start from the beginning though! So it was sketchy going to and being in Seattle. Some guy with handcuffs was on the plane...and then they took the handcuffs off and the immigrant guys left...I was like 2 meters away from the guy so I was like... ....WTF. Anyways got off the plane (no ramp...we had to get off the plane and walk outside...geez just cue Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Child in and you pretty much get "Almost Famous!"). Seattle is a rad place. Would be radder if the people weren't so crazy...but then again it's America ( no offense...but I find it different...tis all). It's very much like a Vancouver. Thursday was the concert so we headed over to the Paramount...which was a 1 min walk from my hotel (The Paramount...go figure). The Theatre is AWESOME! Everything about it is rad...so old...so cool looking. Anyways I did meet one heartmonger there, Darrell. Pretty cool talking to another Heartmonger! lol. Heart was late on stage but whatever! They had good music playing so who cares! YEAH LED ZEPPELIN! Anyways suddenly "Hot Smoke And Sasafrass" came on (their song before they go on stage) and then everyone came on and I saw Nancy and was like....OMG...there she is. OMG! It's Nancy f***ing Wilson!!! LOL. We had pretty good seats too! Such an awesome show. Such an awesome setlist! Magic Man Straight on Love Alive Bebe Le Strange Even it up You Wreck Me- Tom Petty These Dreams Alone Love Reign O'er Me- The Who Barracuda Crazy On You Black Dog- Zep Misty Mountain Hop- Zep Lost Angel - encore Dreamboat Annie - encore Nancy kicked ass on You Wreck Me she kicked ass for every song lol. It was so cool! Fav song from the set...Bebe, probably then Lost Angel... Nancy was crazy on Bebe!!! I love it! She rocks so hard! I was soo bummed out after the concert because it went by so fast! But I kept telling myself that I had another concert in Van! The next day I hopped onto a Greyhound to go to Van. Customs was sketchy as always. and I like how i'm so honest...lol...."Why were you in Seattle...?" "Umm Heart Concert!"..."A what?"...."A Heart concert!!!" LOL Seattle to Van took about 4 hours...went to Van. Got off at the depot. 5 mins later I get on the Whistler bus...that took another 2.5 hours. Finally met up my friend in Whis. Whistler is crazy weird. It's weird to think your like RIGHT there. Winter would be rad though...lol So the night of the concert...we started off alright...on the road and then when we got in Van...bam...TRAFFIC! lol...we were going to be late! We were on Granville St. and my friend accidently stalls the car...AND the car...is so f*cked up that everytime you want to turn it on...you have to boost it. So here we are, on a Saturday night on Granville boosting this car LMAO. After that we were just in the middle of traffic. and more traffic and more traffic. Finally we get to the Casino and parking is full so we have to go to the top of the parkade...people are extremely slow and stupid in Van. That took awhile...literally ran to the door...couldn't get in...ran around the building to the other door. Got in. Ran upstairs... *hearing muffled heart* ...opens the door and it was like *WHACK, welcome to Heart!!!! * lol...went to our seats (it was the end of Magic Man...the first song so we were happy that it wasn't any later!) Everyone was sitting except for like 30 poeple that were by the stage so we said f**k the seats and we booked it down to the stage. I still can't believe it still to this day but...I was standing 3 feet from Nancy Wilson the entire time. IT was SOOOOO COOL. This is my friggin idol and she's RIGHT THERE! It was a really amazing feeling. About a min into the time we were there and "yell yeah! heart!" and Nancy looked right at me and went all :0 !!!! and gave me a huge smile *maybe she remembered me from the Seattle show 2 days back (she looked at me when I made a heart with my hands and she grinned)...but who knows!!* THAT WAS COOL. I was like..omg...she looked at me! LMAO. The show was friggin AWESOME. Nancy was totally rocking out...way more than the Seattle show I thought. It was just so cool to be sooo damn close! Anyways the showed ended and my friend who is a Breakbeat DJ totally was loving Heart. haha and I thought she would of Heart being lame...just because it's rock music and her loving breakbeats would be hard to listen to. But she loved it! We stayed after the show to watch them tear it all down. I didn't want to leave. It was sad. But then Craig (lead guitarist) and Ric (Bassist) came out and was signing stuff. The roadie started to throw the guitar picks so this jackass beside me got like 3 and my friend was like...WTF...give it! And of course he did. lmao. So I have a Nancy Wilson guitar pick. and then we were kinda standing around and suddenly this dog comes out on stage right for me...and I knew EXACTLY who's dog that was...Nancy Wilson's!!!!!! So I yell "Charlie!"....Nancy in the background walking, called Charlie back and walked away smiling lol. CRAZY! NANCY WILSON! So finally we left and I was left shellshocked that I just watched my fav band. and not only watched...got acknowledged by my friggin guitar idol. It's still very surreal. LOL all I said after the show was ..."crazy.... .... ....crazy..." Heart f***ing rocks. I hope I get to go to another show simply because I have won a meet and greet with them. There was a mix up with Heart Camp so the next time I go to a show with them having a meet and greet i'm automatically in. So i'm sooo STOKED for that. I still am in disbelief that I went to a heart concert and saw my fav guitarist on stage....and just....wow. Crazy LOL NANCY WILSON ROCKS!
