[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]Mmmm...brand new bass. :p

What kind?

Kage is right...Ticketmaster charges WAY too much for services. A 35 dollar ticket had 10 bucks extra for charges.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, no kidding. Percentage-wise, it's even worse on less expensive tickets, because you end up literally paying half or more of the actual ticket cost in extra chrages. For my Opeth ticket, which was $15, I paid $8 in service fees. :eek:

Paying $23 beats paying £23 for your Opeth ticket tough, but still I get to see Opeth. 30th Nov., \m/

Ahh.. you need that stuff....go get a refund!

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]It's fun growling. People stare at you like you're possessed. :lol:[/QUOTE]

:lol: yeah I've had that happen to me several times. One time I was at a stop light growling along with [I]By The Pain I See In Others[/I], and the older people in the car next to me were staring at me like I was the anti-christ.

I'd rather have the security of knowing I'll get in online than hope to get lucky buying it elsewhere. If another online ticket service is less expensive, I'd be happy to know about it.

Darkness 11-14-2005 06:33 PM

Yeah I don't get it, I'll casually be walking through the hall in school (which is Catholic) with my head phones on, and I'll just growl out "oooooo the lepers coiled neath the trees..." and I'll get all these weird looks. :upset:

Toaster 11-14-2005 06:40 PM

It's really funny trying to get people at school to sing along with "my kind of music". Ordinary people trying to growl = hilarious. :thumb:

I wish I knew how to growl, not because I'd ever want to put it in a song of mine, but just because it would be an awesome party trick, especially late when everyone's wasted.

I gave blood last year, I'm never doing it again. I got really sick and messed up, probably because I'm so skinny.

Darkness 11-14-2005 07:06 PM

Me and one of my good friends use to always talk in a growly kind of voice as really young kids, we thought it was super funny. Untill the past 2 years, I've realised what an awesome vocal style it can be. :D

That did play a slight role, but I would've given even if I didn't get out of class.

I only weigh 125, and I was fine. There were some people that weighed 160+ and passed out.

Deth 11-14-2005 07:55 PM

I can't give blood because I'm 16 :(.

I think I know what you mean.. I did that, I used to call it "ogre voice". :lol: Sounds like Cookie Monster having an orgasm.

I weigh 125 too. Maybe it's my height? If I were 5 feet and weighed that maybe I would have been fine, but I'm 5 foot 8. I don't know how it works...but I was a mess.

I'm 5'11", so it must just be a personal thing.

I'm about identical to you.

I'm also 16, so in a few years I will tower over you. Fear me!

Toaster 11-14-2005 08:37 PM

I'm 5'5, 130 lbs. I thought I was thin. Until now!! Deth, I suggest you put on some weight, when your growth spurt kicks in you won't have enough fat to enable you to grow to your potential height.

/learned this the hard way

Deth 11-14-2005 08:39 PM

Hey, I'm trying! I'm unable to gain weight. 2 pounds in a year, and I do eat well and exercise semi-regularly.

Toaster 11-14-2005 08:50 PM

Did I say eat well? I'm talking poutine, Big Macs, stuffed crust 3 cheese pizza, etc.

Deth 11-14-2005 08:50 PM

*walks away defeated*

On an Opeth related note, what other covers have they done besides Remember Tommorow? I really like it but I've never heard the Maiden version so I can't compare.

Kage 11-14-2005 09:19 PM

I stand a towering 6'5" and weigh 210 pounds. Ha!
