Yikes! Sucks being short, doesn't it? I'll survive somehow. Maybe if I just get in line extra extra early so that I can lock myself to the barricade in the front. Although then there's the risk of being crushed, too. Ah, the risks of going to a concert. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Saturday, October 16, 2010 12:33:36 AM)

Yes!!!! Only weird thing will be not seeing the rest of Judas Priest. No Glenn, Ian, Scottie, KK. It'll be interesting to see see how the Metal God performs with his solo band compared to Judas Priest.

Ha! I'd have to see it for myself...maybe the next time they come around and have a concert in NorCal I'll go see them.
Oh! And speaking of concert, guess what arrived in the mail...my ticket to see Halford in Anaheim!!!

Yeah it's definitely I'd say the most well known Metallica song, I like it too. Tell you what, Lars is a madman on his drums LOL he's like an energetic midget person hehe.

That's probably the most popular Metal song out there. Hell, before hearing about Judas Priest I knew about Enter Sandman for a while. It's a good tune. I probably would have cheered for The Four Horsemen or Whiplash, if they played those at all.

Haha possibly! Enter Sandman got the biggest cheer I believe. I yelled out first and loudest for Master of Puppets.

That guy must have been either a noob or just a casual fan. Maybe before that concert the only song he knew from Metallica was Enter Sandman. HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep they're from the Bay Area - there was a well known bootleg EP out called Bay Area Thrashers, with recordings from when Dave Mustaine was still in the band. I only said 'proper' fan cos I couldn't think of how I wanted to put what I meant, LOL!!!

So here's a mini review of Metallica finally, after a busy few days lol! They opened with two tracks from Death Magnetic, which were pretty good, but for me the highlight was For Whom the Bell Tolls. Other oldies they played included Seek and Destroy, One, And Justice for All, Master of Puppets. The special effects they had were excellent - my friend and I were a fair way back in the seated area (with a good view) and could feel the heat coming off the flames they had occasionally. There was heaps of lasers and other nifty stuff, and coffin shaped lighting rigs that moved around. Plenty of idiots at the gig too, and plenty of people who were there just cos it was Metallica. Reason I could tell this with one dude is as follows - as anyone who has been a 'proper' fan of Metallica would know, the Bay Area thing pops up often. One of the t-shirts at the merch cart had Bay Area on it. A young dude (maybe 17?) was standing next to me and said 'Ba area??? What's that? I don't think it's Bat Area??' then someone finally explained to him it was Bay Area. Hmmm, lol. Anyways, the gig was great, the best bits involved the oldies, but overall it was worth the money and I am glad I went. Seen as Craig missed out I bought him a tour shirt and posted it to him

One of the t-shirts at the merch cart had Bay Area on it. A young dude (maybe 17?) was standing next to me and said 'Ba area??? What's that? I don't think it's Bat Area??' then someone finally explained to him it was Bay Area. Hmmm, lol. Anyways, the gig was great, the best bits involved the oldies, but overall it was worth the money and I am glad I went. Seen as Craig missed out I bought him a tour shirt and posted it to him

Ha! I'd have to see it for myself...maybe the next time they come around and have a concert in NorCal I'll go see them.
Oh! And speaking of concert, guess what arrived in the mail...my ticket to see Halford in Anaheim!!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Friday, October 15, 2010 11:53:37 PM)

That's probably the most popular Metal song out there. Hell, before hearing about Judas Priest I knew about Enter Sandman for a while. It's a good tune. I probably would have cheered for The Four Horsemen or Whiplash, if they played those at all.

So here's a mini review of Metallica finally, after a busy few days lol! They opened with two tracks from Death Magnetic, which were pretty good, but for me the highlight was For Whom the Bell Tolls. Other oldies they played included Seek and Destroy, One, And Justice for All, Master of Puppets. The special effects they had were excellent - my friend and I were a fair way back in the seated area (with a good view) and could feel the heat coming off the flames they had occasionally. There was heaps of lasers and other nifty stuff, and coffin shaped lighting rigs that moved around. Plenty of idiots at the gig too, and plenty of people who were there just cos it was Metallica. Reason I could tell this with one dude is as follows - as anyone who has been a 'proper' fan of Metallica would know, the Bay Area thing pops up often.

Hey, PK!! How's it going?? Good luck with those ingrown toenails. They must hurt alot. And speaking of doctor, I'll have to find one for my eyesight soon. As of late I feel as though I can see better without glasses than with them on, which is probably a bad thing. Plus, I ran out of contact lenses while in Berlin, so I gotta replenish my supply soon.
My weekend was great! Mainly because I bought my ticket to see Halford in Anaheim this December!!! Can't wait!!!!!

Man I cannot catch a break today! I had a doctor's appointment this morning and am still recovering from the concert on Saturday. Alice Cooper and Rob Zombie just plain kicked ass! I give a 10 out of 10 for both of their performances and I never knew how crazy Rob Zombie's performances were until now, and it was EPIC!!!
Overall my weekend was great and but now I have to go to a podiatrist (foot doctor) to fix an ingrown toe nail that is bad on both sides but fortunately on only one big toe. I have to get there at least 15 - 20 minutes early to get some paperwork done since I am a new patient with this doctor (just like this morning for the checkup) and then have to get a little procedure done. Plus I have to take antibiotics for a week but that's not too bad so far.
Hope everyone has a great week and let me know how everyone else's weekend went!

Hey, PK!! How's it going?? Good luck with those ingrown toenails. They must hurt alot. And speaking of doctor, I'll have to find one for my eyesight soon. As of late I feel as though I can see better without glasses than with them on, which is probably a bad thing. Plus, I ran out of contact lenses while in Berlin, so I gotta replenish my supply soon.
My weekend was great! Mainly because I bought my ticket to see Halford in Anaheim this December!!! Can't wait!!!!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Painkiller87 from Monday, October 04, 2010 3:13:53 PM)

That is FANTASTIC news Becks!! Sounds like they got the clot busters in quickly so that it limited the damage. Very good sign that he is already talking much better. I hope he continues to improve and hopefully he will be back to himself in no time. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Friday, October 01, 2010 8:53:15 PM)

Thanks for the kind words Spa. I heard today he is talking much better already, so great news!

Checking in late, not supposed to be typing. But for this, I want to give you hope and to encourage him to get those pistons firing. Therapy is great for this, and I hope to hear he gets back to snuff.
Now, by all................Can type no more...

Thanks Spa, HB. I just spoke to my mum and Grandad has had a MRI and a heart scan, no results yet though. He is alert and trying to talk but getting frustrated so he is getting out words like 'shit!' LOL!!!

I'll be keeping your Dad and Craig in my prayers Becks. So sorry. Lets hope the Doc's got the right anticlots running fast enough and he will regain his strength in therapy. It won't come back right away but if he got there early, which it sounds like he did, then the chances are really good.

Cheers guys, mum is keeping me informed. He's having tests done now, he's conscious but can't talk (the only word he can say properly is NO, lol), his right side is shaky etc, and he looks really vacant apparently. Waiting to hear more news soon.
Vail - Craig is gone for 6 months this time. That's standard deployment length for the NZ army etc.

Yeah, he will be very frustrated at not being able to speak properly. But the fact he hasn't gone downhill so far is great. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Thursday, September 30, 2010 8:10:41 PM)
