Nasty. But if the Magic Numbers are on tour, wouldn't they end up somewhere near you at some point, too?

Iai 09-03-2005 11:42 AM

All the shows near me are already sold out, according to the adverts I saw.

Bartender 09-03-2005 11:52 AM

Oh. Probably a good thing I'm not that bothered about going, then.

Although going by my [url=http://www.leedsgigs.co.uk]guide[/url] there doesn't seem to be much else coming soon.

Today is my birthday hooray for me :D

Happymeal 09-03-2005 12:41 PM

I'm having problems ripping songs from CDs on to Winamp. Does anyone know how to fix the problem?

I'm a n00b to things like that but don't you need an iPod to use iTunes?

no.

no, an iPod basically uses a dumbed down version of iTunes. iTunes is standalone, and kicks ***.

Iai 09-03-2005 01:31 PM

I use Creative MediaSource to rip.

6Stringer 09-03-2005 01:33 PM

Oh I see, thanks for the help pixiesfanyo and snidget. I'm buying an mp3 player soon, I think I'll go with a Creative Zen.

Iai 09-03-2005 01:36 PM

Good choice.

Happymeal 09-03-2005 04:26 PM

I wonder when somethingawful comes back. Or if it's coming back at all. [SIZE=1]D[I]a[/I]mn looters[/SIZE]

Zappa 09-03-2005 04:28 PM

Today I went downtown and stood at an intersection holding a jug. I made a few hundred dollars for Hurricane Relief from people stopped at the light and passing pedestrians. That was fun.

Cool man, nice one. :thumb:

I'm going on holiday to Majorca on monday, yay!

br3ad_man 09-03-2005 04:47 PM

Here's a rough idea I had for a song last night. Think Broken Social Scene meets Darkthrone.

Sounds interesting enough to download.

I think you just created your own genre. :p

Happymeal 09-03-2005 05:19 PM

Black alt?

Iai 09-03-2005 05:21 PM

Jesus, it sounds like you're dying.

Nice chord progression though.

br3ad_man 09-03-2005 05:23 PM

Blackpop or Deathpop maybe? Any suggestions or anything? I'm thinking of adding some piano a bit later.

Here's another one I did a while ago if anyone is interested.

No no, that would be when I actually sing :p

ATM 09-03-2005 05:24 PM

Haha, that is amazing.

Mr Observations 09-03-2005 05:52 PM

Well that was unique.

br3ad_man 09-03-2005 06:06 PM

Here's a question. Last night I recorded the guitar on my electric simply because my mum and brother were watching TV and I didn't want to disturb them by making noise. Should I use an electric in the way I did there or should I mic an acoustic with my crappy PC mic?

Daniel! 09-03-2005 07:13 PM

I made the coolest avatar ever to celebrate Kanye West's idiodcy but it has too many bytes.

I nominate that for best moment in television history.

That's quicktime. There are some other versions in the pit.

YDload 09-03-2005 07:43 PM

[QUOTE=Happymeal]Happy Birthday(:chug: as usual) What gifts did you get?[/QUOTE]

Well, here's what I got on the musical front:

Iron Maiden- [i]Killers[/i]
Primus- [i]Sailing the Seas of Cheese[/i]
The Replacements- [i]Let It Be[/i]

I've only listened to the first one so far, but I have no doubt that I will enjoy the others. I don't take risks on my album-buying; I usually go in with a pretty good idea of what I will dig in the future.

Also, I couldn't get the albums I really wanted at Best Buy because they weren't there. No Melvins albums at all! And here's what really pisses me off: albums by classic rock bands are always limited to greatest hits compilations or ridiculous remasters that strip away anything especially neat and reminiscent of when they were recorded. The only Yes albums I could find were some anthology (with all the long songs turned into "single edits") and the one with "Owner of A Lonely Heart" on it! :mad: :mad: :mad:

So no [i]Fragile[/i] or [i]Close to the Edge[/i] for me; I'll have to try Amazon. Maybe in a week or so when I can also pre-order the new Coheed album.

The same thing happened to me. I went to Best Buy looking to buy Closer to the Edge and all they had was some crummy greatest hits. I ended up buying it used at a local record store.

Hahaha. Closer to the edge sounds like a Linkin Park song.
