The whole time this shit was going on all i could do was wonder where is security? There was none, and I'd be amazed if no one got hurt.

Well hello again everyone! I've been away for a week with limited internet access at my mother in laws place, our hallway floor was getting fixed so I thought it was best to take Ada away to visit family while the builders did their thing :) how is everyone?

First of all, I am glad you had such a great pre-show experience with the band!! That would be fantastic to be at sound check. Their meet and greet sounded like a blast too. I love it when bands treat their fans well, with sound check/meet and greets, etc. That is the way it should be..... HINT ..... HINT...... HINT to JP management!! I've been to a lot of shows where there is that full force push forward and if you are at the rail, you get smashed. But usually, it's just once or twice and the assholes figure out they aren't getting any closer and stop! In the couple of times they kept on doing it, the security guys climbed up, pointed at the offenders and then security came up behind them and threw them out. Stupid of the venue to not put a stop to it, because someone could have gotten seriously injured and they would be at fault. Very scary! I'm sorry that it ended so badly!

Crap! Dangerous situation. I was in Brazil during their "penta" (5th) win of the World Cup. Went way to the north to the city of Recife. When they won it (I believe the US hosted!), the city was as close to Carnaval as you could imagine. TONS of people flooding the street, trielectricos (giant busses with dancers and massive sound systems), parades...all night long. Following day, I head out walking to the beach like any other day and I see the streets filling with people all running one direction. I stop someone and ask what is goin on, answer? The team is passing through on parade! Weeeellll, of course I join in the run! Got a nice spot in the front row then decided, thanks to being in concerts like you describe, that it would be best if I moved back a row or three.
Yup, first row starts to be pushed back by walking police. Then another wave of police with more people coming up to see from behind (think "futebol' isn't a passion in Brazil?). Then comes a row of police on horseback KICKING the front row back. Whole time people crushing from behind. Some guy with a bike was close to me and, when he went down, it was all I could do to keep from being smashed onto his offroad bike that had also gone down.
Moral? I just jumped and snapped some shots as the team passed by sitting on a bus and put them together with names in the newspaper the following day. Hopefully, the only casualty was the bike. Fork literally bent in HALF by the pressure of the crowd.
Man, I gotta find those pix. Really impressive. Dangerous but talk about fans...wow!

Same. I was a VERY late adopter of the CD.
I still get laughs when I say that I ran to "the first side of album X." Quite sad that "recordings" don't have "sides" anymore. There was a true art to picking the first / last songs of both sides.

I can't wait to hear the debut from "Newsted". I saw them @ Gigantour last week and thought they kicked ass. Some of their stuff reminded me of early Metallica. They were selling a signed EP at the show but I already bought the new Megadeth and later when I decided to buy it it was sold out. (my luck) Last friday at "Mayhem Festival" I saw a couple of bands that I thought were really good live that I didn't care to see and only watched becaused nothing else was going on. I was only expecting to like Rob Zombie/5 Finger Death Punch on the main stage and Machine Head on the side stages but got a few surprises instead. First surprise was Mastodon. I saw them before but didn't care for them. I thought they rocked out at Mayhem. Another surprise was Children Of Bodom. I listened to them before and I thoughtI didn't like them but they were great live. I love their guitar work. Great guitar players. Lastly Amon Amarth. Never cared for so called "Viking Metal" or whatever you want to call it but they were badass. Great guitar work and I didn't mind the vocals and of course the giant viking ship was cool. I'll post a pic. Motionless in White wasn't bad but I'm still not sure I like them. Friday's concert put over 250 shows I've been to and over 400 different bands I've seen live. ...and I'm supposed to be slowing down. (lol)

Yeah, I'll give you that Dr. F. was ok, I bought the cassette on day one but only have songs from "Shout at the Devil" and "Too Fast for Love" on my ipod. In that order! Couple of good raw songs on Too Fast but the big breakthrough was Shout. Had the videos to match and, to boot, that was the very first CD I EVER bought (broke my cherry from the LP, IOW).
Yes, I still have a working turntable, still buy and play LPs but that is the honest truth. "Shout at the Devil" was my first CD EVER.

Just watched Crue "Behind the Music." I don't care. Dr. Feelgood SUCKED! "Kickstart my Heart" was the only track that was decent and it had a lot to do with the video. HATE when it slows down (3:00 minute mark) - sounds childish. Had a good riff and Mick delivers otherwise,

its every 600 to 800 thousand years. roughly. its 640 since the last major eruption, although the west thumb of the lake was carved out by an explosion 125K years ago.
if it does go, you might be as well off to be in it as not. places like denver are directly fucked. places on the atlantic seaboard would see deaths due to ashflow. in between, all wind dependant you would probably see 70% of US cropland wasted, starvation looming, certainly deaths over 10 million, could be 100 million.
as to bears, I am far to familiar with them to get myself into trouble. I supose never say never, but they dont scare me, I know how to avoid close encouters of the ursine kind....
if you can find a way, sleep in a van or tent, whatever, go see it. its realy different from anything else you could see, [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Budred from Sunday, July 14, 2013 9:38:09 AM) |  | Budred wrote: | | @Headbanger.
