[QUOTE=BenJammin;13448757]:D Yeah... it's a pretty heavy book. I've read it a few times now and I keep noticing more stuff each time through. And, yeah, the ending is unsatisfying.

He's got another book out, too. Just released it recently. It's called "Only Revolutions" and seems to be equally weird so far. I'm only about 1/4 through it because school is depriving me of time to read.

You totally just went up in my books.[/QUOTE]

I totally went up in your books because I read a book? :lol:

I really need to pick that other book up sometime then, I didn't know it existed.


Anyways, it's bedtime for me, peace out everyone :wave:

Well, it's one of my favorite books and it seems like no one has read it.

:wave: Peace.

:wave: Hey.

How's the Spector?

PaulSimonon 10-15-2006 09:48 PM

So, um, damn. I could get used to this ****.


Yay for yay.

Absolutely amazing. I love it.

So how about you, gotten any newer gear lately? I haven't been around the forums much, as I've been so busy with school, work, musical theatre, etc.

Wow, that is nice. That's one thing I need to upgrade, my amp situation... Although I'm currently saving up for a car, and a trip to Japan on spring break. So I'm stuck with my Peavey Basic 60 until the summer, probably.

PietroCrespi 10-15-2006 09:57 PM

Anyone got any good blues artists to suggest?

Aerodyne 10-15-2006 09:58 PM

So. I'm thinking about joining a metal band. I'm quite possibly the least metal person in the world (exaggeration). Thoughts?

[QUOTE=GoldfingerSpokesman;13448869]Anyone got any good blues artists to suggest?[/QUOTE]

Hmm.. Don't listen to a lot of blues, really. But, I did see an amazing musician at my local Roots And Blues festival (the one thing my town is famous for). Jimmy Bowskill. He's 15, and unbelievably talented. Really nice guy, too. I think he's from Toronto.

Yeah, I'm sick of my Behringer BX600. I've bought the head, and I'm going to pick up a Schroeder cab in January or maybe December, if the money is there.

Japan, eh? That sounds wicked. Why there?

Aerodyne 10-15-2006 10:00 PM

Because the government there passed a law against genatalia. :amaze:

Truth be told, I'm at a point now where I'm so desperate to start playing shows that I'd really play just about anything.

It's an exchange program through my school. I've taken Japanese for 3 years now, and I figured since I have the chance, I should go for it.

Oh, sweet. Yeah, in that case, might as well. I keep forgetting that Japanese culture is a lot more prevalent on the west coast.

PaulSimonon 10-15-2006 10:09 PM

So yeah, I'm in a good mood. How's everyone else?

[QUOTE=GoldfingerSpokesman]Explain.[/QUOTE]

I'll try and find the exact law, but basically it says that there can be no videos that show any form of genatalia. That's why you have pr0n with tentacles and other tasty fetishiness. :(

[QUOTE=The Red Death]Truth be told, I'm at a point now where I'm so desperate to start playing shows that I'd really play just about anything.[/QUOTE]

Exactly. :thumb: I haven't played in a band since the beginning of summer, and that fell through in about a month. The last time was about a year before that, so I'm ready to play with someone, and I really don't care who.

I'm feeling fairly amazing. Got back together with a former girlfriend of mine earlier this week, and things are going beautifully. Also, I'm mellowing out to some Minus The Bear. I really need to get Highly Refined Pirates soon.

Thanks. The only blues on the radio here in central Arkansas is a one-hour weekly show called House of Blues. I've been listening to it religiously the past 3 weeks.
