[QUOTE=Iai]I had the BEST day.

I went to a poetry reading at The Strand Theatre, as per a college trip. I was the only guy on the trip. I do not kid when I say, every girl who went, was serious eye-candy, and was so nice to just talk to (and flirt with). They were all in mentalist mode too. It was funny as hell. I may even be forming a band with one of them.

The reading was killer, too. Simon Armitage (the reason I went) was amazing. Grace Nichols was great. We missed most of Gillain Clarke, unfortunately, but what we saw was cool. Carol Ann Duffy, sadly, was lame. She had no passion whatsoever.

There were a couple of lectures about poetry, one of which sucked. The other (Germaine Geer) was a little overlong, but very informative.

The day ended with Will Sutton essentially doing a stand-up comedy routine based on Shakespeare's Sonnets. That was incredible. So funny, and totally unexpected. Made my day, he did.[/QUOTE]

I can't stand Simon Armitage. Germaine Greer's hot, though.

Anyway, sounds like a good day.

Ok, risking a ban, I'm gonna do some shameless plugging for a forum that myself, 40 Oz 2 Freedom, and piratesatellite started a while back. We'd like to see some more chill, open-minded members, so come visit us.

And we're not some dinky little forum, we have an assload of threads and over 80 members, so we're expanding.

Rock over London, rock on Chicago.

Dimebag Darell is dead.

Please mourn.

RIP Dimebag

It's harshed my mellow.

This is s[I]h[/I]itty.

Well I guess
You took my youth
And gave it all away.
Like the birth of a new found joy,
This love would end in rage...
And when she died
I couldn’t cry,
The pride within my soul.
You left me incomplete
All alone as the memories now unfold.

Believe the word.
I will unlock my door...
And pass the cemetery gates.

Thanks man...

Tis a sad day for the music world...

That Dimebag news really extremely f[size=2]u[/size]cking sucks.

Pantera was actually one of the first bands I got into, so I guess he's kinda responsible for me liking music. Wow. I was at work when I found out about it and I was walking round in shock for the rest of my shift, it was really weird, really unexpected.

[QUOTE=The Ashtray Girl]Thanks! So was Germaine Greer actually good? That woman really bothers me, she has always come across to me as very judgemental.[/QUOTE]
She was okay. She didn't really say anything I didn't already know, and she seemed a little lost without decent props. But it wasn't bad.

My friend Joe told me about Dimebag. I thought he was kidding, but I just saw all the threads.

It'll be interesting to see what Phil Anselmo has to say.

Just a week ago I read an interview where Anselmo said that Dimebag deserved to be beaten severely.

I hope this at least knocks some f[size=2]u[/size]cking sense into him, Anselmo is in desperate need of a reality check. In the same interview, he said: "I think I proved clearly to everybody what I was in PANTERA! And what I was was a unique, unbelievably magnetic frontman that had not been around since the days of Robert Plant and Ozzy Osbourne. I am one in a million".

Hey everyone! I'll be home on Tuesday. I just logged onto my MSN to find out the Dimebag news. Not the nicest first thing to see from home in 2 weeks. It is ghey beyond words. My sad theory is being proven: everyone good is dying.

RIP

How is everyone else? It's wicked over here.

Yeah, we're all gonna kill each other off eventually...


Otherwise, I'm doing swell :thumb:

So many newer metal bands these days rip off Phil Anselmo's style of singing (especially in nu-metal), but for some reason, none of those mallcore bands could ever match Dimebag's chops. I think "inimitable" describes this guitarist pretty well, and it's a tragic loss for everyone.

Has anyone ever heard "Avoid the Light?" It's one of the last Pantera songs recorded before they split up, and it starts out very subdued and acoustic. I really like it; most Pantera fans will say that it can never match the classic "Cemetery Gates," but it's still pretty solid for a band whose albums took a slight decline in quality (from what I understand).
