I lent this to a friend of mine three, or was it four, years ago, and I finally got it back, today. The reasons being, I would forget about it, then, when I remembered, it was difficult to meet up due to our schedules. Anyway, finally, he remembered, and he asked when I was available and where we could meet. And even after all that, after four years with it, he never even watched it. The bastard! I have not lent out anything since, and I will continue not lending out my shit. This damn DVD/CD wasn't cheap.

NOTHING leaves the vault. Ever. Friend or not, you can look (maybe), but you can't touch!

 

That's pretty much my newly adopted policy.

Thaankfully none of my friends/family have any interest whatsoever in the music I listen to, so borrowing is never an issue.

yeah, Great White's Once Bitten Twice Shy cassette single (the one with Waysted Rock Ranger) was loaned out to a co-worker during a summer factory job I had, summer of 1990 (or maybe '89) and even though I asked many a time in the weeks leading up to me heading back to school....never saw it again.

I lend the occasional CD out to my business partner, and my wife (although she practices the art of putting CD's back in whatever case happens to be available as opposed to the right case for the right CD).

Nobody wants to borrow my stuff ... I can't think why ;)

I just remembered I also lent my copy of Dream Theater's "Octavarium" to a friend years ago. He said he lost the disc, but gave me back the case. How the hell does that even happen? Maybe I'm just out my damn mind, but the disc and the case are travelling buddies. If the disc goes in the player, the case waits patiently outside. And then why do I want the damn case if there's no disc? He said he would buy me a new one, and I believe he would've, but he was in the process of moving. So he's gone, and I still have an empty case. Every time I reorganize my CD rack I'm reminded that I need to replace it, and I never do. Such a good album. My favourite from Dream Theater.

^^^^ Don't know if this applies to what you said but last year I bought a car(used2010) and on the drive home from getting it I tried the CD player and it didn't seem to work.The Cd wouldn't go in.Finally I decided to hit the eject button and out comes a CD-Adele 21.So whoever had the car before me or one of the dealership employees left the CD in so now they're stuck with an empty case !

I wonder if this means a return to the project's original synthwave style?

    • New song 'Siren Song'. From Frontiers: Seventh Crystal, who stormed on the melodic rock scene in 2021 since their stunning debut album "Delirium", have announced the release of their third full-length, "Entity". Seventh Crystal took everything up a major level (or two, really), "Entity" sees the bands exploring and expanding different genres, bringing their melodic rock formula, to progressive rock fields, sometimes little heavier and back to their unique rock style. Seventh Crystal is a melodic hard rock band from Gothenburg formed by Kristian Fyhr in 2019. What started as a solo project by Kristian quickly grew into a larger endeavor when Johan Älvsång and Olof Gadd joined the project. Shortly after, Anton Roos and Emil Dornerus also joined the band, completing the initial lineup. In 2020 the band signed a deal with Frontiers Records and released their debut album "Delirium" in 2021, which made waves all around the world. Due to the guitar-heavy parts on the album, the band realized they needed one more guitarist to be able to perform the songs live. Gustav Linde, an old friend of Anton Roos, took on the job, and the band began to work on their slightly more guitar-oriented follow-up album "Wonderland." The album "Wonderland" was released in 2023 alongside the EP "Infinity," establishing the band as an act to be reckoned with. During the fall, Johan Älvsång decided to step aside, and the band continued as a five-piece into the recordings of a third album. Drawing inspiration from a variety of genres, from soft rock to hard-hitting heavy metal, Seventh Crystal showcases a diverse range of musical expression. The band aims to be authentic and serve as an inspiration, outlet, and escape for their audience. Their sound is characterized by bombastic productions, catchy hooks, and dramatic and emotional melodies. TRACKLIST: 1. Oathbreaker 2. Thirteen to One 3. 404 4. Path of the Absurd 5. Architects of Light 6. Interlude 7. Blinded by the Light 8. Siren Song 9. Versus 10. Mayflower 11. Push Comes to Shove 12. A Place Called Home 13. Song Of The Brave    
    • The latest band featured is "Y&T". This is a good one, as always with channel.  On a side note, I'm just thinking that there aren’t too many bands that have a Lead Singer that is also the Lead Guitarist.
