Re: What’s everybody reading in Chit-Chat

In the middle of reading ” House of Leaves” by Mark Z. Danielewski, really cool and very fucked up story, its a critical essay of a non existent film about some wired house that keeps changing shape and fucking withe the emotions of everyone in it, and also at the same time telling the story of the guy who found the essay and how he’s been going slowly crazy since he started reading it all told through footnotes, and some really cool graphical layout with refwercnes and footnotes in boxes upside down or printed backwars to look like thyve bled through form the previous page, and some other werid and cool stuff like blank spaces in the text where the orignal mauscript had been damaged.

@viking_pooh: How’s the Behringer tuner? I was thinking of getting one of those, if it’s not too noisy.

Its Ace, Just Like a boss tu2 , ive noticed a very slight delay in returning to full volume from bypass mode but noting that really affects it. battery cover is abit awkward to get off but finally sorted myswlef out with power supply, but is noiseless and avaiable for about £20. plastic case but decent quality still. Tu 300 model.

Hetfield is a great, aggressive singer/frontman — just my opinion there — I’ve followed this thread for a while and know a lot of you don’t agree. ..

i totally agree, Hetfield is fantastic singeger, gutiarist and songwriter, especially his voice in moe recent years where is lower and gruffer from years of smoking and touring, he should fuck off and do some solo shows with an acoustic :)

Re: Pitchshifter in Other Bands & Artists

.com is amazing, 10 years on theres still nothing like it. as for the subsequent albums, i love them, Deviant was a step in a punkier direction, whihc really confused me when the guitarist left saying he wanted to play more punk stuff, and PSI starts off abit slow but has some killer songs on it, and also led me to discover the glitchy beatatic Drawbacks as the did some of the programming and have been permanment shifter guitarists since 2003. plus the new songs on the free cd’s given out on the last couple of tours are really promising, big and brutal sounding.

Re: Problems with BT? in Chit-Chat

My only problem with BT is they want £125 to reconnect a phone line which has a dial tone and simply needs switching back to them at the exchange after it was previously owned by a different supplier that no longer exists :(

Re: Bad Joke Thread in Chit-Chat

heard this one many years ago but it still makes me chuckle

a young boy and his dad are out driving one day when the dad is pulled over for speeding. the policeman deals with him and then says “ill be round your house tonight to collect the fine”. after the policeman has gone the dad says “bastard”. the boys asks “dad what does bastard mean?” top chich his dad replies “oh its another word for policeman.”
when they arrive home the dad trips over the door mat and shouts “Shit”, the boy asks “what does shit mean?” and is told, “oh its another word for doormat”.
a little while later his dad is upstairs shaving when the boy hears his dad shout “bollocks”, once again the boy asks what the word means, and his dad says “bollocks is another word for chin”
the boy wandered downstairs where his mum was preparing the chicken for dinner, as shes cutting it the knife slips and cuts her so she shouts out “fucking hell”, but the boy only hears her say “Fucking” so asks her what it means and she tells him “its another word for cutting”.

at that moment the doorbell rings, the boy answers and its the police man from eariler so the boy says ” Hello you bastard, come in, dont stand in the shit. my dads upstairs shaving his hairy bollocks and my mums in the kitchen fucking a chicken”

Well the 6 7” vinyl single boxset version of Semi Detached is awesome, except you have to change or turn it over after every song.

Aslo, Tool - Lateralus with the layered see through booklet, so it builds up a picture with the various layers shwoing through from behind

The Damage Manual - Limited Edition album with the lumpy mopulded palstic cover :) tis cool as

Re: Should t? stay trio? in General Therapy? Topics

3 piece, theres so much stuff they play that they wrote with martin and it doesnt sound like its missing anything as a 3 piece. also 3 pieces improve each members playing and makes them work harder. plus, Andy has improved soooooo much as a guitarist seems he learnt alot playign with martin and he’s still a fantastic riff machine. plus if they ever want any cello on future recordings u know martin would pop in the studio and do it for them :)
