LOL! Ohhh shit hellrider! If the members ever read any of this,they must understand that even though some of us didn't get into Nostradamus,we still hail the band for thier efforts and we still love the band but we are "hungry" for new material especially for those who didn't groove on Nostradamus because to us it feels like the last album Judas Priest put out was 2005's Angel Of Retribution. Nostradamus was released in July 2008 almost 2 years ago,and for the band to strike up a any kind of a tour for the Nostradamus album even if its a short one is almost taking a step backwards.
Same goes for if they don't do a Nostradamus tour and do a 30 year aniversary tour for Screaming For Vengeance in 2011 they would be taking a step backwards,something the band has never done before,the British Steel aniversary was fresh and new and thats all good but to tour another 30 year old album instead of creating something new would be heartbreaking.
They really have us all by the balls here,its like watching a game go into overtime on the edge of your seat pulling for victory and if it doesn't happen its a major letdown. All we can do is what we all obviously know....sit back and fucking "wait". This band means a HELL of alot to myself and millions of other fans and there is nothing we want more than a brand new studio album,but we also have to realize that we might not get one,that is fuckin scarry hellrider. We need to bribe them....lets say if they put out an album as strong as Painkiller we will all buy 2 copies!!!! Somethings got to give hellrider!! lol!

If it's just one or two shows, sweet as whatever. But I would very much like a new album! LOL! Who knows what will actually happen, bands talk about stuff all the time. I think if they were going to do something with Nostradamus they would have done it already, it's been 2 or so years since the album was released.

Uuuummm..now just think about WHY that wouldn't work? Entrance to the hive is on the outside. Bees sleep at night and the hive is in a wall. Bug zappers work by what?? Attraction to light.
No HMRG, no epi pen. No worries, though. I wouldn't do anything without complete protection.
Thanks for the good wishes, all. To be continued...

Oh, you poor thing... pobrecito...now that's a sticky situation if I've ever seen one. My only uneducated suggestion to this problem would be to put a giant bug zapper in front of the hive entrance and then watch the fireworks from really far away.

Hot day, you guessed it, it breaks free, drips down the wall, invites rodents, cockroaches, ants and anything else that immediately picks up on an unattended hive.
FINALLY, to do a tear-out, you have to rip out the inside wall and hope the queen doesn't jump between another stud which is common when she senses danger. She abandons the hive and drones and takes a ball of soldiers with her and drops to the bottom between the studs either to the left or the right. Could be either.

A BEE-KEEPER usually doesn't want to do a tear-out as they usually find it not worth their time, effort and hassle.

Pretty cool - but NOT MY KIND OF JOB! There are bee keepers who will also come and move the hive..... Just a thought, but I don't know if anyone around you can do it. They probably still charge for the service though, even though they get to keep the bees and sell the honey. What a pain! Couldn't they build it in a tree or something???

It was quite the sight let me tell you. I was standing on the sidewalk thinking I was safe - WRONG! Those bastards flew out of the hive, left Mark alone, and flew directly at MY HEAD!! Mark's spraying them and smacking the hive and they don't do anything to him - he's your man I tell ya! Now me, if I was within a mile of it, they'd find me.

Poor Bob, I feel sorry for the almost terrible things that would have happened to him. lol
Flora said she can't do that and that you should hold the flashlight in your mouth to prevent bees from flying down your throat. Told you, she is so considerate. LOL She's ruthless.
Oh, Bob would be LUCKY to just hit a second-floor room. He could easily hit the stairs and all the way to the first! A fall is a fall, but I'd take the 8 footer over the +/-20!
Tell Flora thanks. Send her over. SHE can be the one holding the flashlight so I can see! LOL!!
OK, I must depart to bathe! My back is on fire...ah, yes. Construction can be such fun...cya later.

BTW, Flora just told me to tell you "Hahaha,...........Sucks to be you" She's such a compassionate child.

I at least hope you have an epi-pin (or ten) handy, just in case you may need them.
I'd just have to camp outside till I found someone to get rid of them. Good LUCK!!

I'll lend lots of support right here from my safe little home. You KNOW I'm terrified of bees.
So, your venturing into the attic with no lights on and trying to find the source? By yourself?, no dumb fall guy to throw in your path? lol
I at least hope you have an epi-pin (or ten) handy, just in case you may need them.
I'd just have to camp outside till I found someone to get rid of them. Good LUCK!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Wednesday, May 19, 2010 5:59:22 PM)

Glad you liked the read too, K2M. It is a dilemma that IS the perfect storm.

A-frame house theory again. The studs could, in theory, go all the way to the top in a non-load bearing wall.
Wish me luck. If you don't hear the continuing tale tomorrow, you'll all know why. I fell through the ceiling trying to walk the joists in the dark! HAAAAA!!!!! (Quoting Message by spapad from Wednesday, May 19, 2010 4:07:26 PM)

The only problem is that we might not get it untill 2013 wich will be the last Judas priest studio album of thier career,the band is excruciatingly slow at recording new albums the last 20 years and for that reason we have every reason to belive that there will be only one more album from them.
If they do put out more than one more studio album I would be utterly "shocked" as by the time they would get around to recording an album after this next one,they would be in thier 70's and lets face it,once they turn 70 its over,Judas Priest will no longer be active.

Holy Crap Guido! I didn't realize they built the hive that far away from the opening and you had to tear out the wall to find them. I'm sure you can find many idiots to do exactly the wrong thing to "help" you. So you pretty much have to do it yourself because no one will help. That just totally SUCKS!

That will be false hellrider,they will definately not be touring a Screaming For Vengeance tour in 2011/2012,if they did that they would be going backwards as musicians wich is something they pride themselves on not doing. They will deliver a brand new "metal monster" as you put it,and hopefully it will be a new album of british heavy metal at it's best.
The only problem is that we might not get it untill 2013 wich will be the last Judas priest studio album of thier career,the band is excruciatingly slow at recording new albums the last 20 years and for that reason we have every reason to belive that there will be only one more album from them.
If they do put out more than one more studio album I would be utterly "shocked" as by the time they would get around to recording an album after this next one,they would be in thier 70's and lets face it,once they turn 70 its over,Judas Priest will no longer be active. But there will be one more studio album and we just have to hope that its thier best work of all time!

It better not be a numbered limited edition as some I know who ordered later than me HAVE theirs and I am still without.

I don't know! Maybe they read the pre-orders backwards? From most recently ordered to older orders?? *sigh*....
I guess that means another round of British Steel for my mp3 player. Which is great, don't get me wrong. But I want to hear the live version so bad!!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by spapad from Wednesday, May 12, 2010 8:44:55 PM)

This sucks. It worked for Nostradamus two years ago. Why is it late now?
