I think last year they did about 4 songs each.

We don't have an original yet as we just started playing together.

you should make one, and make the cover a really famous song, an older one, as there will be lots of parents in the audience, my school did a final performance of a class called rock school less than a week ago, one band did sweet child of mine and the audience went nuts once he started that beginning guitar riff. before you start the song talk down on it

"well, the next song were gonna do is an older song, i doubt any of you will have heard it before" start intro to song, crowd goes crazy

:lol:

I'm eating chocolate.
It's meant to be melting chocolate for like fondu, so it's all soft and airy and great.

Like a 3 muskateers?

I pwn n00bz leik u gi'z n gurlz lolz

No. It's just like a chocolate bar.
It's like two inches thick, but it's soft enough to be able to bite through it with hardly any effort at all.

"You can't experience being alive without realizing that you have to die. But it's just as impossible to realize you have to die without thinking how incredibly amazing it is to be alive."

So, I submitted that as my senior quote, and they refused it.
Shucks.

why is that....if the quote expresses you and isn't vulgar anything should be allowed. I hate authority!!!!! always making stupid decisions

Ahhhhhh! my comp was weird for a week, or so. It just shut off for some reason.

On, lighter note, they're passing Escape From New York on SpikeTV(DBJ :P)

an older song? I think your perception of history is a bit off. Too me, 'older' means like 40+ years ago, not 15 :P

Q.What did Rob Halford say to Lemmy before Motorhead and Judas Priest went on tour?

A.Can I pack your sh!t? :lol:

But seriously new motorhead dvd out \m/

[QUOTE]Ahhhhhh! my comp was weird for a week, or so. It just shut off for some reason.[/QUOTE]This happened to a lot of my buddys. What kind of comp do you have. Three of my friends (Each with Gateway) had there computers down this week.

bah! custom built computers are the best!

[QUOTE]bah! custom built computers are the best![/QUOTE] Yeah, I got mine at a computer store for like 300 bucks. Alot cheaper when you pick and choose.

I just think it is crazy three Gateways had a problem the same week.

No.

Its an eMac, this is the first time it's ever done anything like this, though.

I noticed the fan is horribly dirty, though, maybe it overheated? But the thing is, it wouldn't turn on for about 3-4 days.

I saw this table of 8 black people at this buffet we went to, and every one of them had collard greens, corn, fried chicken, and watermelon.

Who doesn't like fried chicken? Or corn? Corn owns.

I love fried chicken.

I love fried chicken...
And corn.
I don't really like melon or collard greens, though.
