  1. Well...I can't vote because I like the CD for the most part, but I can't say I totally love it. On a scale of 1-10, I'd give it a 6.5-7. What I really hate is when a band tried to hype up their cd, like they did to this one, and compare it to one of their best sellers. I think is was Johnathon Cain that said it was similiar to their Frontiers release.....I'm not seeing it at all At least there's less ballads than Arrival

Donald Duck comics were banned from Finland because he doesn't wear pants. 15. Ketchup was sold in the 1830s as medicine. 16. Upper and lower case letters are named 'upper' and 'lower' because in the time when all original print had to be set in individual letters, the 'upper case' letters were stored in the case on top of the case that stored the smaller, 'lower case' letters. 17.

Guinness Book of Records holds the record for being the book most often stolen from Public Libraries. 33.

  6. In case you need some help explaining to your child how he/she was born: Little boy goes to his father and asks, "Daddy, how was I born?" The father answers: "Well, son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a blessed little Pop-Up appeared and said: "You've Got Male!"
  7. The couple had been debating the purchase of a new auto for weeks. He wanted a new truck. She wanted a fast little sports-like car so she could zip through traffic around town. He would probably have settled on any beat up old truck, but everything she seemed to like was way out of their price range. "Look !" she said. I want something that goes from 0 to 200 in 4 seconds or less. "And my birthday is coming up. You could surprise me." For her birthday, he bought her a brand new bathroom scale. Memorial Services are pending.
  8. Recently I received a warning about the use of this politically incorrect term, so please note, we all need to be more sensitive in our choice of words. I have been informed the Islamic terrorists, who hate our guts and want to kill us, do not like to be called "Towel Heads", since the item they wear on their heads is not actually a towel, but in fact, a small folded sheet. Therefore, from this point forward, please refer to them as "Little Sheet Heads." Thank you for your support and compliance on this delicate matter. And, God Bless America.

  10. Abbot & Costello in the 21st Century If Abbott and Costello were still around today their famous sketch "Who's on first?" might have turned out something like this.... COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT . . . ABBOTT: Super Duper Computer store. Can I help you? COSTELLO: Thanks. I'm setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking about buying a computer. ABBOTT: Mac? COSTELLO: No, the name's Lou. ABBOTT: Your computer? COSTELLO: I don't own a computer. I want to buy one. ABBOTT: Mac? COSTELLO: I told you, my name's Lou. ABBOTT: What about Windows? COSTELLO: Why? Will it get stuffy in here? ABBOTT: Do you want a computer with Windows? COSTELLO: I don't know. What will I see when I look in the windows? ABBOTT: Wallpaper. COSTELLO: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software. ABBOTT: Software for Windows? COSTELLO: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What have you got? ABBOTT: Office. COSTELLO: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything? ABBOTT: I just did. COSTELLO: You just did what? ABBOTT: Recommend something. COSTELLO: You recommended something? ABBOTT: Yes. COSTELLO: For my office? ABBOTT: Yes. COSTELLO: OK, what did you recommend for my office? ABBOTT: Office. COSTELLO: Yes, for my office! ABBOTT: I recommend Office with Windows. COSTELLO: I already have an office with windows! OK, lets just say I'm sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need? ABBOTT: Word. COSTELLO: What word? ABBOTT: Word in Office. COSTELLO: The only word in office is office. ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows. COSTELLO: Which word in office for windows? ABBOTT: The Word you get when you click the blue "W". COSTELLO: I'm going to click your blue "w" if you don't start with some straight answers. OK, forget that. Can I watch movies on the Internet? ABBOTT: Yes, you want Real One. COSTELLO: Maybe a real one, maybe a cartoon. What I watch is none of your business. Just tell me what I need! ABBOTT: Real One. COSTELLO: If it's a long movie I also want to see reel 2, 3 & 4. Can I watch them? ABBOTT: Of course. COSTELLO: Great! With what? ABBOTT: Real One. COSTELLO: OK, I'm at my computer and I want to watch a movie. What do I do? ABBOTT: You click the blue "1". COSTELLO: I click the blue one what? ABBOTT: The blue "1". COSTELLO: Is that different from the blue w? ABBOTT: The blue "1" is Real One and the blue "W" is Word. COSTELLO: What word? ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows. COSTELLO: But there's three words in "office for windows"! ABBOTT: No, just one. But it's the most popular Word in the world. COSTELLO: It is? ABBOTT: Yes, but to be fair, there aren't many other Words left. It pretty much wiped out all the other Words out there. COSTELLO: And that word is real one? ABBOTT: Real One has nothing to do with Word. Real One isn't even part of Office. COSTELLO: STOP! Don't start that again. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with? ABBOTT: Money. COSTELLO: That's right. What do you have? ABBOTT: Money. COSTELLO: I need money to track my money?

COSTELLO: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much? ABBOTT: One copy. COSTELLO: Isn't it illegal to copy money? ABBOTT: Microsoft gave us a license to copy money. COSTELLO: They can give you a license to copy money? ABBOTT: Why not? THEY OWN IT! A FEW DAYS LATER . . . ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you? COSTELLO: How do I turn my computer off? ABBOTT: Click on "START"..
  11. That's the part that I don't like. If the band says they don't want it reissued, then Sam shouldn't be going against their wishes and do it anyway, no matter how rare the cd is. This is the type of situation which makes me wonder if he just has a stack of rare cd's being printed up and going to release them no matter what the bands want, or if they even know they're being rereleased. It's like he's doing it first and waiting to see if he gets caught. Not a good way to start off a record label.
  12. Here we go again.............................. Seatbelts anyone?
  13. I was going to stay out of this one, but this is my take. It's not meant to attack anyone here in any way Personally, I think if he does have a certain amout of them pressed, instead of selling them one at a time to keep the prices up there, then maybe he should consider offering them in a dutch auction for 25-50 items at a crack. I feel that would be less deceitful. He's going on the law of Supply And Demand right now. He's the only one with them adn he knows it, so releasing them one at a time, he can let the people battle over them until the end of the auction causing a bidding war and sky high prices. When it's all over, he throws out another bone and they come running. Having a dutch auction seems to be a more honest way of selling them in my opinion. On top of that, I've seen many many reissues come out in the last 5 years of rare cd's, and when a regular label releases them, they usually run them around $15 a crack give or take. The same as any other cd out there.
  14. I got my copy of Blanc Faces today from NEH Records, and I must say, it's a very very good AOR CD in the vein of Survivor, Journey and Foreigner. The mixing was done by Dennis Ward of Pink Cream 69 and he did a killer job. NEH had the cd to me in no time flat. They are a great source for the best new releases! Get this CD!!!!
  15. This just in!!! Breaking News!!! After months of research, a top secret facility of highly trained scientists have discovered what the true meaning of "vegetarian" is. It's an old indian word for "Shitty Hunter"
  16. The bonus tracks will also make it easier to tell the difference between an original and a reissue.....
  17. I have no problems if he sells reissues as long as he states it in the auction. I see he did with this one and that's fine by me. I'd love to hear this cd since I've heard so much about it. As long as it's a legit reissue and the band knows and supports it.
  18. The plot thickens........................................
  19. Well...does the band even know it was "Rereleased"?
  20. Look who the seller is and that's all you'll need to know....... If you go to www.retrospectrecords.com and click on the contact button, it e-mails Streetsofmetal@AOL.com. Streetsofmetal was a username that Vegascds used when Vegascds was not a registered user for a while. See any connection yet? Hmmmmmmmmm
  21. Evilbay notified once again. We'll see how long it takes them.......
  22. Martin wakes up at home with a huge hangover. He forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table. He sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. Martin looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotless, clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins and notices a note on the table. "Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go shopping. Love You!" So he goes to the kitchen and sure enough there is a hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. Martin asks, "Son, what happened last night?" His son says, "Well, you came home around 3 AM, drunk and delirious. Broke some furniture, puked in the hallway, and gave yourself a black eye when you stumbled into the door." Confused, Martin asks, "So, why is everything in order and so clean, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?" His son replies, "Oh, that! Mum dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you said, "Lady, leave me alone! I’m married!"
  23. No...I was trying to eat just then...........
  24. If he's been NLARU'd, then notify eBay and get your listing fee back and relist it. He can't do anything since he's been booted under this name. Don't even bother waiting if this is the fucktard who "won" your auction. Was he using this name or did he have another? If so, list it here for us so we can keep track of him. Thanks
