Happy birthday Mr. Hawkins! It's awesome that your grandma got you a Killswitch Engage CD, my grandma's nowhere near that cool... she just says the same story multiple times in 15 minutes.

... why do I call you Mr. Hawkins... oh well.

Gwil - Nice sig, that movie rocks.

The green beast was purpotedly scaring children, it had to be done And surely you mean avatar, my lover? :x

But yeah, rocking movie

And Happy Birthday Adam - if I wasn't working i'd ever so possibly catch the Red Arrow to Chesterfield and stand around like a goon for a couple of hours Or maybe not.

Hope it's a good night out, and remember - avoid Zanzibar at all costs!

James is still in. The last person to leave was Danny Lohner, which was just before Thirteenth Step was finished.

Good god! I've never been in Zanzibar and don't intend to in the future. I've been forced into a couple of the other 'nightclubs' and only enjoyed 'The Beach' cos they had dancers in bikinis on the tables

Gwil, if you're ever up for a night out in Chessy and i'm there, i'm pretty sure my parents would put you up for the night as I imagine the buses to Derby are few and far between

Heh, forgot to say my other grandma got me the Korn best of...i've got 'em well trained

Cool. He's a great guitarist that can't sing for crap (and that's even compared to a screeching Billy Corgan) so I'm glad he's not drifting back into a piss-poor solo career.

I was just thinking, what makes you a fan of a band/artist? How many of thier gigs you have been to, how many of thier albums you have? Or just that you like thier music a lot. [addsig]

A fan = you like their music. I thought that was obvious. smiley

Well, technically, 'Fan' is short for Fanatic, which would almost imply that the first 2 were correct. Remember, a part of fanaticism is an element of unreasoned enthusiasm. So, just showing up at some concert 'just because' would make you a fan in the literal sense. [addsig]

Yeah, a fan usually implies you like their music though.. for instance, i've seen The Cooper Temple Clause 3 times, as I cited (perhaps this inspired $loths post?) - but I wouldnt class myself as being massively enthusiastic for them - it just so happens I've seen them once where it was their gig, and the other two times they were on the Reading/Glastonbury '03 lineups.

Also theres a lot to be said for people who like and follow a band/artist, but are willing to hold back on buying all the albums.

I like a lot of artists, but I don't like ALL their material. That would just be silly.

Just listened to 3 songs from a band called Burning Mona. Oghr over at 69th Vlatitude is part of this band. They did their first interview at a small radio station and they haven't done any tours but if you listen to their music you'd think it was a bid name band. They are great and you really should listen to the stuff they have.

I think I saw them on Conan once. Pretty good, I think; it was a year or two back.

Just got The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster's new album, "The Royal Society". Puts pretty much all rock albums released post-millenium to shame. Voodoo/stoner/desert rock, with a touch of pure punk adrenaline. I remember seeing the description "some seriously heavy voodoo s**t" somewhere, which is pretty much spot on. If you like anything involving Queens Of The Stone Age, The Birthday Party (hell, Nick Cave in general), The Stooges, The Stone Roses, Captain Beefheart...hell, if you're into rock music, pick it up. This is miles away from their insane, zombie-fueled debut album.

Here's some suggestions if you're willing to search them out (I recommend SoulSeek):

The Fool
I Rejection
Drunk on the Blood
Freud's Black Muck

The 3 singles don't really do the album justice IMO.

The new Big D and the Kids Table album "How It Goes" has been released...in the US only Importing it seems to not only cost quite a lot, but take 4-6 weeks! Looks like I'll just have to wait it out for a UK release.
