Ah, but the internet is free, no? Why didn't you post at the Q? Why no "Some Kind of Wonderful" on your "favorite" band's site? My answer? Both places would have eaten you to pieces. We are much more tolerant here by the nature of the site. One mod. You would have gotten booted from both other sites mentioned above and / or torn apart by its membership.

I paraphrase when I go back to the basics of your "ahem" favorite website. While you post here 10x+ more, when you refer to Priest it is usually to denigrate them. "Past their prime," "sounded terrible," "not relelevant" (you better believe that one stuck with a long-time Defender like me). Wouldn't that have violated the MRH rule of a website being used to promote the band? Do you think MRH is "relevant"?! If so, you barely show it in your posts there. Sure, you may preach to the choir there but here you preach to those that don't care much for them and you know that I am quite open to musical tastes. I asked you for a song that might help convert me but you ignored the request. No biggie as I have been a member of that site for a while. A LOT longer than you have ever noticed.

As I said to you...breeeeathe (scuba diver, remember?). The "bad vibe" you get is from a Priest fan who doesn't like to see you trash a band on their own (free and, for all intents, mod-less) site. That is the essence of it all. Show the same respect here as you do there.

Maybe I just learned here what not to do there.
That's pretty creepy what you're doing but you're giving me that vibe lately anyway so I'm not surprised.

Guess. Here. I'll give you a hint:
  • Public bashing of the band, band members, or message board members will not be tolerated
  • Show respect for the band and your fellow message board users/staff
  • Most of all, enjoy yourself and have fun. This is not the place for fighting, bickering argument, or high school drama. If you need or are looking for that, please look elsewhere and leave it out of our forum.
  • Why all the web-police? Why post 204 messages on a band site you like while 2000+ on one that is now "not relevant?"

There is a reality competition show on "SyFy" called "Faceoff".
Basically a group of people competing against each other making special effects masks and make-up and such.
The first episode was on last night. It was pretty cool and the stuff these people came up with was pretty crazy. One
of the contestants is David Greathouse. "House". He makes masks for a Cleveland band that I like and I thought it
was pretty cool seeing him on there. What he did last night wasn't the best of the group but he did a good job and
moved on to the next round. I don't expect him to win but I'm hoping they mention the band. Maybe it will get them
a little attention which can't be bad. The guy is talented and he may do OK so it will probably help his career also.
Even if you guys root against "House" check out the show. It seemed pretty cool.
[guidogodoy] Tuesday, January 15, 2013 7:12:07 PM 
Yeah, like painters. I guess you aren't famous until you die. Marconi gets the radio and anyone who has been to the top of the Eiffel tower knows that a figure of Edison is sitting up there. Shame that there are numerous things named after Edison (especially in Detroit) while a Serb-American like Tesla still undoubtedly changed the world as we know it.

Yeah the doco said he died in poverty, and that the patent Marconi stole got rectified after his death - something like that anyways.

HAA! While that may be true, he was a Serbian citizen who later became an American working under the stingy, egoistic Thomas Edison. Tesla broke off and was the sole inventor of AC or Alternating Current (AC comes before DC!). THAT is what we use today. It carries voltage farther than the weak DC put forth by Edison. Sadly, he died in poverty.

Any nerd knows that Edison was a shill. Tesla was a mastermind. As mentioned, also the inspiration for both the monetary unit of Serbia as well as a great band! Always liked Tesla:

We saw a doco on the history channel that was, in part at least, about Tesla. One of his patents got stolen by Marconi - at least that's what I gathered, I was trying to baby wrangle at the same time LOL.

Modern Man owes more to the inventions of Nikola Tesla than to Thomas Edison.
(in addition to honoring him as a unit of measure, the band, Tesla, rocked...certainly more than "The Edisons")

How about an actual "random fact" in this thread? It has been some time.

The Spanish word "murciélago" (bat - as in the animal) is one of the few Spanish nouns to contain every possible vowel.

Uh, what? The lawsuit by Baxter against Judas Priest and Halford is a crock of shit? It is documented. You were a member of the OLD Halford.com when he posted his rant. He, EMAS, took over that site and now gain all profits from the things that once Rob promoted but now he alone owns.

You want to support Halford? Do NOT buy crap from Halford.com! Learn the facts before you encourage anyone to buy items from a site that is now exclusively filling the pockets of the one person: Baxter. Indirectly, or even directly depending on Baxter's actual financial situation, YOU are helping someone attack the Metal God(s). I call that BETRAYAL!
