f**k off and die! Oh my, another emphatic modifier. See, you're 'Eating from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil' rather than the Tree of Life. No worries, you're not alone, virtually 100% of the homo-sapiens on planet Earth are Eating from the Tree of Death, which is why they die...one of those No-Brainers. The Beginning is Here...and many will not like it. :LMAO:

Yeah I'm hoping the real list includes the Yum! Center in Louisville or a date in Nashville. Or even the Ford Center in Evansville ;)

Most schools in Newtown have reopened, but the Sandy Hook students won't be in class until January, after winter break. Just read that my home town of Monroe is helping out and re-opening my old middle school to them, which has been shut down for over a year now. I miss that school but it sucks that it's opening back up under these gruesome circumstances. :( My wife and I will be in CT next week and I'm considering volunteering to help set up the elementary students' temporary "new" school.

I really enjoyed that one but enjoyed Manhattan Project WAYYYYY more. That tune was pulled off much better due to the strings and the vocal range.

Most of the time I see nobody in there Part of me thinks it isn't worth the money, but then every time there are 5 people in there and I can't get in I say "well damn, I wish it were worth the money " If only increasing the max user limit were a sure-fire method of drawing more regular users like we used to have.

some Grippos dat flavor...

Hey good to hear from you guys! Have a Merry Christmas! :cheers:

Substitute it for Dreamline. Manhattan Project was WILD with the strings, and deserves to stay ;)

This is the worst elementary school massacres in U.S. History. It completely disgusts me. I am not an Obama fan at all but even he made me tear up while he teared up at his press conference. My 12 year old just came into the room crying over the deaths of the 20 children. I gave her a huge hug and told her that I loved her. She made me cry again. This world is getting worse and it will keep getting worse. "It is what it is whatever?" There is no God that's for sure. Through all the madness humans should still have the right to bare arms. 47% of Americans own a gun. Right before Christmas really? The insane are taking over the planet. Love your children and hold them tight. If you are too young and don't have children then hug your parents and tell them how thankful you are that you have them in your life. Guns are just the tool in this terrible incident. In China the same thing happened yesterday, except the guy used a KNIFE. I'm horrified that people would do this. You know what makes it worse? The news outlets went in and despite the administrators of the school forbidding it, they interviewed the children during school hours. Those kids can barely comprehend the horror of what they just experienced and grown adults barged in to make them relive those memories that they can barely process just so they can get tears on camera to boost ratings. My heart goes out to everyone affected. I really hope the media stays away from the families so they grieve in their own way. I, too, hope the media will keep their distance from these families. Those vultures need to realize that none of these people give a shit about the news, interviews, or ratings; they just lost family and that's all that's important, and it sickens me to see people badgered with cameras and mics after incidents like this. Especially young children who just experienced the most traumatic event of their lives. It's embarassing as a human being, for another to take the lives of innocent children and adults. How f*cked up does a man have to be to kill his own mother? How sick and twisted does a man have to be to kill children who had their entire lives ahead of them! I feel terrible for all the families in Fairfield County who lost sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers, and fathers yesterday. I'm still in shock over this. It feels awfully strange. I know Newtown well. I grew up in the neighboring town of Monroe. I know many people who live in Newtown. I've seen that school and have even been there before. And now to see a familiar place on the national news after a horrific massacre occurs, really hits close to home. It's reminded me that not all terrible things happen in the faraway lands of Colorado. When things happen in a place you've never known, it is still horrible, but the feeling is different. It can happen right in your own back yard. It can happen anywhere, and no one is ever fully prepared for it. I don't want to place any blame on the up-coming end to the Mayan calendar, because I'm sure it had nothing to do with this tragedy. However, I fear things like this might happen more throughout the next week. There are a lot of nutjobs out there. A lot of insane people who really do believe the world will end on Friday, and want to go out with a bang and take as many people with them as they can. I hope my fear is never justified. My heart goes out to all affected by yesterday's horror.

Says I ought to live to 83 years old (dead in 2072) Longer than I expect, what with all the food chemicals and cancer rates Edited to add: WTF are we all talking about? We're dead in 9 days anyway! :P

Thanks to everyone :) TRF is awesome and it has made awesome things happen. You guys all rock, and thanks again! :cheers:

Not only Xanadu, but Half the World was played on the Test for Echo tour ;)

Terribly sorry, metaldad :( I wish you and your family all the best.

jk

I don't know how anybody could like that bucket of vomit titled Headlong Flight.

Well, they played it in Phoenix which was also filmed for the DVD. From what I remember, it sounded great. :) So hopefully they'll combine the best of the two shows for the DVD. :o YES! I didn't know they switched Dreamline for Manhattan Project on that night! Faith is RESTORED! :cheers: And that is one epic setlist and I hope that one is the main DVD feature. (or if they combine both sets and stitch them together as one show that'd be even better! ;) )

Guess this means there's zero chance of Manhattan Project making it to DVD :( I know it was on A Show of Hands but it just sounded so powerful with the "modern" sound, and epic with the strings....besides, Dreamline was on Different Stages, Rush in Rio, R30, and Snakes and Arrows Live....

Geddy would have to bust out the 5 string bass playing that track!

It'd be a great song to hear live, I think. If not High Water, I'd also like to see Force Ten take a back seat for the return of Lock and Key.

:facepalm: Boob squeezies. That's more like it.

I'm sure hoping the concert for the main DVD feature is the show with Set A. It'd be even better if they'd just combine both sets and stitch together for a longer show ;)

Blue & White hurt me eyes! Blue & Grey is A-OKay :ebert: Excellent job with all the skins, 73. This one's definitely very cool and relaxing to the face. Although, one thing I just picked up on, is that a few peoples' signatures, including my own, contain text that is the same color as the grey background. I'm going to check to make sure I have that text set to automatic black type. BRBZ UNBRBZ Okay it's still just a slightly darker grey than the grey background. :( Man, I gotta ditch Bob Ross for my classic Tarkus icon.

Oppan Ticknam Style! :cheers:

I sure hope whatever live record they produce, it will have a combination of both sets! It'd be such a waste to release a live record and omit Manhattan Project. (I know it was on ASOH but damnit it sounded incredible this year!)
