Wall of Mouths

good lad

lol

i used to own the first Linkin Park album (before i got bored with it, and smashed it into ickle pieces)

i feel so violated

*sits in bath rocking back and forth* “still not clean, still not clean”

Title: Donnington!!!

who went? who did you see? what did you think? which band was it who said “scream for me donnington” in that i’m-trying-to-look-old-skool-but-not-quite-pulling-it-off way

oh and if you could settle an argument among my mates…who do i look more like (see attachment) kerry king(albeit with hair), dimebag, or dino cazares(fear factory)

(Before changing the message boards’ software in August 2007 this post had a file attachment, which may return in the future)

cheers all, the funeral went ok (apart from my 4 year old nephew saying in a VERY loud voice “why werent you singiiing?) am feeling a little better now, unfortunately i went on a massive bender(well, substitute beer for weed) after the funeral..so now i’m paranoid to fuck. i never bloody learn lol!

I went…i saw a surprising amount of T? shirts, and i made a point of shaking everyone of their hands…what?! I WAS WASTED!

but the real question is…what the fuck went on with slayer?

Hie.

Most of you would probably not know about Neil’s Pre therapy days, so i’m going to list the equipment he used before and during the Therapy days.

The Beyond days.

The beyond was Neil’s first band with a record contract. In those days, Neil used a Pearl Mapel 7 piece kit with 2 20 x 16 inch bass drums, a free floating snare, and toms, 10, 12, 14 and 18. He Uses powerstroke 3 heads on the bass drums and Snare drums, and pint stripes on the toms. Cymbals were a mixture of Zildjian, Sabian and Paiste. A pair of 14 inch Avedis Zildjian rock high hats, an 18 inch Rock Crash from Avedis, An avedis medium 19 inch crash [i think, i’ll have to ask him!] A paiste alfer power crash 20 inches, a 20 inch avedis zildjian Ping ride, a 20 inch china boy low, and a paiste signiture 10 inch splash.

The garilla days.
Garilla is actually the beyond’s New name, and they didn’t last long. Neil Uses the Same kit, but on 1 song, he used a Premia 22 x 18 bass drum.

Cable Days.
Another derby based Band, And Neil is still using the same Kit.

When I first Met Neil, He’d just had an indorsment from Zildjian, A pair of 14 inch Avedis zildjian rock high hats, an 18 inch Avedis Zildjian rock Crash, a 19 inch Z custom medium crash [used as a crash ride], a 20 inch Z custom ride, a 20 inch Z custom china, and a zilbell cymbal size unknown.

He also has a 22 inch Avedis zildjian ride, which he never uses. But he lent it to me in april 2003.

Therapy days.

Just before he Joined therapy, He switched from Pearl Drums to Mapex Drums [Note, he isn’t indaused by them, he only plays them]. I had a brief go on his kit in the shop, and it sounded fantastic!. Compaired to the pearl, the mapex kit is toned down in number of components, and he changed the bass drum sizes to 22 x 18. For toms, he uses 12 and 18 toms only. Snare drums, he retained the free floating snare drum, though on songs like Hay saten, you rock, stand in line, and rust to name a few, He uses a 14 by 6.5 mapex maple snare drum. As for drum heads, He experimented with several different heads, but now he plays aquarian heads exclusively. For the sessions for high angziety, he used the same cymbal set up, until both crash cymbals, the china and the Ride cracked in amsterdam, and zildjian failed to send any replacements. so now, he uses sabian, plus the zilbell that he retained from the original zildjian set up.

Vertually all of his career, he uses Vickfirth 5a drum sticks, reasons being that the stick is thin, and light.

And that fokes is it! hope you injoyed it!

neil, get security. you have a stalker..:D:D

From Kerrang!:

Joel Wreford: “How did you feel about doing Ozzfest after Ozzy slagged off the version of ‘Iron Man’ you did with him?”
Andy: The ‘Iron Man’ thing was blown out of proportion. Michael and I went to LA to record the song with Ozzy, and afterwards he said it was cool. We got photos taken with him and thought, ‘That’s the coolest guy we’ve ever met’. The next week he was saying, ‘What a load of shit that song is’, so I just went, ‘What an old wanker’! Basically the poor bastard had been asked to sing on his own tribute album, which is pretty f**king embarrassing, but we were glad we did it because we got to meet Ozzy. Afterwards, we toured America together and no one has ever treated us better. I’ll never hear a bad word said about Ozzy or Sabbath.”

Yay! Hooch, that was my interview for Kerrang! with Therapy? (I’m Joel Wreford!!!)

In fact I found out the other day if you do a search against my name on google, the first result is a Therapy? interview. Pretty cool!

i just did that…found the interview…and found my new favourite andy to add to my collection…DRUMROLL PLEASE…

‘Ah Cairnsy, snogging boys now are you?…’.”

sure, i emailed t? and didn’t get a reply. the difference between me and capslockboy? i am mature enough to realize that a.) it was a pretty meanial question and b.)they have to work fucking hard in order to do all these tour/albums/interviews etc. etc.

and besides…i met andy and neil(and micheal fleetingly) at the northampton gig this year, and there fucking nice guys!! and besides pt2, could anyone really see andy as a snob?? it’d be fucking hillarious!

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! don’t he look young!

slayer…oh wait, thats 4 sorry…carry on :D

sorry to hear that. my grandad died not long ago, it took forever too kick in that he had gone.

i still don’t thnk it’s fully sunk in yet, it’s driving me absolutely insane. fuck knows how i’m gonna cope with the funeral.

Title: my grandad just died

my grandad died at leicester royal infermary this morning. problem is(apart from the obvious) he started of at the glenfield (in leicester) and was totally fit and healthy, 2 days later he had a huge flesh eating infection on his face. so after 3 operations (2 to remove the infection, 1 tracheoscapy - none of which he was supposed to survive) he died this morning. apparently it was peaceful, and the staff were with him, but i cannot control the amount of anger i have for the Glenfield - it’s driving me fucking insane! i mean, infection like that just don’t “appear” after 2 fucking days! ESPECIALLY not in a cunting hospital!

if that made no sense - soz!

beardy

hey screen, what’s ur email?

i saw a thread about this over on the Fear Factory boards…had some guy going on about how it was disgusting and how they were trying to rebuild the country, and i quote “and this is how they show their gratitude?” well, hang on, they flatterned the place in the first place!! plus it was all based around the torture/humiliation pictures…the imune internet generation may have not given a fuck but muslims take that sorta shit VERY seriously!

“i’m going to introduce the members of the band now-coz thats what singers do when they get a bit dry on stage” CLASSIC!!
