    Dream Theater LIVE! (first time impressions)

    I'm seeing DT and Opeth this Saturday as part of the Progressive Nation Tour, and needless to say, I'm excited as balls. It's going to be a helluva concert, and I fully expect to die of joy during it. These reviews only enhance the anticipation!

    High-speed rock?

    A couple of weeks ago, I went to see Airbourne live (and what a show that was!). The two opening bands were very cool as well. Stonerider is a cross between GN'R, Hendrix-style wah-pedal playing, and glam metal. EndeverafteR is more of a metal band, with ridiculously catchy glam metal choruses...

    I think listening to music is quite tedious.

    It all depends on what I'm doing. Usually, if I'm just at home and moving around, studying, reading, writing, etc, I'll just listen to my entire library on shuffle - my attention is divided anyway. But when I'm walking to school or traveling or something, where my music is my main source of...

    LOL - I just realized how much of this I had in my dorm room! (CH3CH2OH)

    Alcohol never seems to last long around me. What started out as an innocent night with some friends on Sunday night ended up downing an entire 40 of vodka. So much fun!

    Believable excuses to get off work

    You can pull a Ryan from the Office and rattle off as many as you need until one sticks. Keep 'em in your smartphone. Look alive, intoflatlines.

    Kid in Canada steals a Skyline GT-R, gets owned by an entire forum

    Yay for justice in Calgary! Although it saddens me that there are ******* like that in the first place... I guess that's what you get when you expand so much.

    East Bay punk?

    Lately, for whatever reason, I've been focusing a lot on the music scene on the West Coast in the US, specifically stuff coming out of San Francisco and LA and the surrounding areas. I was thinking tonight that I really like the catchy punk that's come out of there after the hardcore movement (I...

    How Much Music Do you Have?

    6559 songs, mostly at 224 kbps VBR. I'm so close to 7000! Oh, and I can't wait to see Opeth live on May 10th in Calgary! Opeth and Dream Theater in one night is going to blow my f'ing brains into the sky. If the show is anything like the Roundhouse Tapes, I'm going to die very happily

    How do you manipulate a low-offer buyer into offering more?

    Traveling across the country on a bus?

    I looked up schedules on VIA, and it's less appealing for three reasons: first, it costs more than flying (!), so if I'm going to pay $300, may as well get there in four hours. Second, as someone mentioned before, it only goes Montreal/Toronto to Edmonton, so I have to buy a bus ticket to...

    Traveling across the country on a bus?

    I'm making travel arrangements to go home for the summer, and I decided that at the end of this term, I'm going to do something I've been wanting to do for a while: travel across Canada on the highway. I was originally going to rent a car with a friend and drive from Montreal to Calgary, but he...

    What do you guys think of iTunes +

    I've bought and upgraded a few albums to iTunes+, and I have to say, I'm thankful that there isn't more selection, or else, my wallet would be in trouble! I like the convenience of buying/downloading off iTunes, and 256kbps is fine for me on my rig - I can't differentiate between that and...

    So, How's your Leopard experience?

    I did an easy upgrade from Tiger a couple of weeks after Leopard came out, and everything is running sweet. It runs much faster and cleaner than Tiger did, especially since 10.5.2 and the Graphics Update. Now Spaces, Dashboard and Stacks animate super smoothly, even when I'm pegging my CPU at...

    Mac Users - Entourage or Mail?

    GMail through Mail... sometimes it craps out on me and I have to quit Mail, but that's rare. I do have one problem with Mail, though: whenever I do try and quit it, it just sits there, so I have to force-quit it. It's not the biggest deal, but I do wonder why.
