  1. Stay With Me - The Faces
  2. Hopefully this will be a regular thing.
  3. Back In The Band - Quartz
  4. Jersey Shore Shark Attack Do you really need me to tell you that it's a dumb, dumb, dumb film? The highlight is somebody kicking an obviously foam rubber shark in the face.
  5. Top 5: Judas Priest/Annihilator - Aston Villa 1991 Saxon - Woverhampton 1993 Within Temptation - Brixton 2011 (?) Firefest 2009 - (Honeymoon Suite, Romeos Daughter, White Sister, Crown Of Thorns, Airrace, The Poodles. Skipped Drive, She Said and left before FM) Marshall Law - A pub in Stafford 1993
  6. MOR 1980 and Honeymoon Suite and Saga? You are officially king of the jammy gets. So much envy right now.
  7. I've been lucky so far but: Queensryche - Monsters of Rock 2006. Had a few glitches in their intro tape so they were already on the back foot. They started strong, though - "Revolution Calling" and "Operation Mindcrime" - then decided to go into "Suite Sister Mary" which was just the wrong song to play for a short festival set. Geoff Tate doing a mime show during the instrumental bits didn't help. They lost my interest and never got it back. Motorhead - last year. I saw them in 1998 and they were great but this time around they were just going through the motions. Maybe I just got them on an off night. Ozzy - Monsters of Rock 1996 Spent way too much time trying to get the crowd going. No energy coming off that stage whatsoever. My Dying Bride - Bloodstock 2006 Just deeply tedious. I promised myself I'd give them five songs to see if i could get into it. I came close to walking out after two and the only reason I stuck around was that their female keyboard player looked like shemight fall out of her boob tube at some point. Bumsnogger - Bloodstock Festival 2003 In retrospect, a band called Bumsnogger were always going to be a complete waste of electricity.
  8. Now up to 2009 - Includes Canadian Deathcore (Somehow), hardrocking Swedish girls, Japanese oddness and a Canadian band that suddenly turn into 3 Inches Of Blood right at the end. http://bigdassorted.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/the-metal-project-2009.html
  9. I have 3 on the go at the moment: Robert Jordan - The Dragon Reborn (In a fit of madness I decided to reread the entire Wheel of Time series) Norah Vincent - Self Made Man (True story - Woman decides to spend a year disguised as a man. Not bad.) Ian Buxton - Big Gun Monitors (About monitors. With big guns.)
  10. Love/Hate - Blackout In The Red Room
  11. Wolfsbane - Wolfsbane Save the World. Picked it up the other day. Not bad,
  12. Why are there so many bands around with cute female bassplayers? Good song. Bonus points for dancing cops.
  13. Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter Premise is exactly what you'd expect. OK but could have been better.
  14. My latest blog update features songs from 2005 - includes Black Metal from Brazil and France, Power Metal from Chile, Colombia, Italy and Germany, a Dutch band that rather like Manowar and a Swedish band that may well be the first Metal to ever feature the words "Frying pan" in a song. http://bigdassorted.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/the-metal-project-2005.html
  15. If I read the site correctly, the same guys are also doing a Prog festival at the same place on the same dates. How that's going to work is beyond me but looking at the lineup, Uli Jon Roth is doing that too. So I'm thinking it's a case of "While you're over here..." Here's the HRH Prog site: http://www.hrhprog.com/line-up.html
  16. Fuck British weather. Fuck it with no lube and don't call when you said you would.
  17. Have you shared this to Reddit yet? Also, put your link on my site.
  18. Sunshine - Director overdoes it with the effects in the last act but otherwise a damn fine movie. Love the soundtrack too.
  19. Seven Kingdoms - Wolf in Sheeps Clothes
  20. OK but the singer leaves me cold.
  21. Great tour - I'd love to see Journey with the new guy and Thunder are always reliable entertainment - but the only date I could get to is two days before payday. Arse.
  22. Would you like my honest answer to that? sorry bro, I fucking hate Aeon Flux and think it's garbage, I know more people like it then not, but I could never stand it, I should update this though and put on Avengers, Green Lantern, and all the other new ones that have came out since I made this. Aeon Flux is watchable but bears no relation to the original cartoon. Avengers Assemble is just pure awesome.
  23. If I saw them in a pub or an opening slot I'd probably enjoy them. Not really something I'd buy...yet. Ask me again in a year or so.
