Yeah the music in the song itself isn't too bad, could do with a slight tidy up, but yeah, the singer is crap! LOL! It's a shame that kids these days seem to think this is what metal is all about - ah well they will find out one day LOL!

That's really a shame, too. Sounds like that song has great potential...if only the singer could just actually sing the lyrics and not growl them.

Awww that sucks! I'm always up for giving people Priest tunes to check out, especially those who seem to think heavy metal is this sort of shit:


I can't stand bands where all the singer does is scream and growl, it just goes to show they can't actually sing. Plus proper, original metal, is just so much better! LOL!

Rock Forever is a great song!!! A few weeks ago I lent a co-worker of mine my SFV album, and he liked it!! His favorite song was You've Got Another Thing Comin'. Doesn't look like he'll become a Priest fanatic, though, especially since he just quit. Sucks...   [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Becks from Tuesday, September 01, 2009 10:39:26 PM)

It's a brilliant album, got a bit of a funky vibe to it which I think works well a friend asked me for Priest song recommendations, I told her to listen to Rock Forever and she was like woah he's got a set of pipes! about Rob, and I was like hell yes! Rock Forever is a great song for displaying Robs vocal ability.

You know what I do when I have dishes to wash? Listen to JP music from a stereo while washing! I used to do that alot when I had to wash dishes while my mom was at work and I had to stay home. Listening and singing (to myself) to the music makes the chore fun!

Oh, piece of cake! With the right master, I am a quick learner! Lump of clay, wet it down, stick those suckers on loading the beads on a needle or coat hanger.

Hey, if it proves too difficult, I could always cop out and do the very common "stick a broken mirror" all over it. Two colored ones for eyes. Got it covered. Funny, as my mother has a planter in the form of a huge duck on her porch (came from Mexico, of course) for the longest time. My sister and I are going to fight over that giant disco-ball looking sucker! It is an heirloom!

Ok, sorry to say that the party must end. Did a five mile run with hills today and, while all hot and sweaty, decided to run my computer over to the office where I got to doing a bit of prep work for tomorrow. That was hours ago and I think I must smell as Calvin won't come near me.

Always a pleasure, ladies. CYAlls laters!

Actually, I don't think they're that hard to make. I bought one for my older nephew (a cool gecko one) when my mom and I went to Puerto Vallarta two years ago. Looks like all you need to do is design the pattern, set tiny beads onto a clay sculpture, and voila! Instant seller!!

HAAAA!!!! When I run along the beach in the summers in Brazil, the coconut venders line the whole route. No rum but I always stop at the same guy on the way back. I am a faithful client! While it is really fatty, sometimes, I'll even be so daring as to have him slice it open to eat the meat. Counter-productive to the run, but oh well...

Now both those are more along the lines of what I am thinking in terms of cheap sellable goods. Bikini tops and ornate turtles. Yeah, I see my future being formed as I type. Forget this mundane existence in which I live!

Becks, everyone should have few in their lives! I had a big ass drink to carry around but it tasted to good! I hung out with 2 Male Hairdressers from Texas, (nuff said), we had the BEST time! They messed up the VW they rented by driving over a large Rock and we went everywhere that little Bug would take us. And since my mother knew of their orientation she just let me go anywhere with them that week! Thank God!

Oh, WAY cool vid! I'd not seen it before...had to watch the whole thing. Thanks, Spa. Feeling happier already. Hi Becks! Welcome to the party!

Chicklets, eh? You know, I think that market is already taken up by all the street kids. At least in every latin / luso american country where I've ever been. Don't want to get beat up over this, you know. Like trying to sell my ripped movies on some street corner. Nope, market saturation.

I wonder how you get the job as "shark watcher" as I saw on Shark Week? I'd be able to blow a whistle if I spotted a shark....

Scott Travis has great body definition. He doesn't have an ounce of fat and he's quite the anatomy lesson. It' rather difficult to do it IMO and while Halford is an icon, he's tough to do because of his studded clothes. I haven't done KK and Downing yet. I sense the difficulty there will be the guitars and I guess I'll use a grid to get the proportions right, though it's the lazy way.

Sorry to hear that Becks. But does this mean that you will get some hours with them and therefore training as well? If so, then that is GREAT! I know it sucks right now, but a lot of times you just need that one foot in the door so you can SHOW them how great you are! Then when the next job comes up, you will be on top of the list. We have pretty much gone to that way of hiring at the hospital in our lab - hire people per diem and see how they are. When a job comes open you know exactly who you want to hire and who you DON'T (if you know what I mean!).

I was actually going to suggest you go to the labs and see if you could intern or volunteer or something. That way they could see how you work and that you train easily. We LOVE people like that !

Keep your chin up, I KNOW it will happen for you soon - I can FEEL it!

Sorry to disagree but having grown up there since '68, I say that it almost HAS gone south overnight. Look at the history of I94 and the effects of the race riots. 94 had virtually no exits to the previously thriving neighborhoods after the race that had the Civil Guard protecting the suburbs. Especially the rich ones like Grosse Pointe and Bloomfield Hills. They set up sandbags with submachine guns on top to "keep the peace" in the suburbs. All very well documented.

As for mayors, to me, that is Coleman Young. He had a stranglehold on the city that was second to none. Kwame was a second joke that lasted only a few years. Coleman and his cronies lasted some 20 years!!!

Ok, enough of this blah. Let's get back to Priest. Especially how Detroit LOVES them!

I've been traveling to and from Detroit since '88.  There's been a lot of changes since then with the Pistons winning in the late 80's then moving to Auburn Hills, steel mills closing and we all are aware of the auto ind. problems and lets not forget the last mayor (ugh)!!  But in all fairness, there are a lot of folks that have never given up and have stayed and slowly it's trying really hard to make the necessary changes...but just as it didn't get that way over night, it's not gonna change over night either.  I really hope things change as it can be a beautiful city with wonderful arcitecture and landscapes.  Anyone who wants a taste of Detroits fashionable history can walk through the convention center and read the captions to all the many pics hanging on the walls and the statues and things preserved for viewing...

Sorry for the delay...had to eat.

Detroit has a REALLY sad neighborhood right by a rescue place that is basically where the homeless set up. Thousands, literally. I never showed it to DF but that is why it pissed the hell out of me when some uppity bastard thrashes the RedWings for having "empty seats" in "Hockeytown."  What a bunch of bull.  I LOVED Bongwater who said that he loved hockey but we just can't get it here. Right on! Someone with half a brain who understands the situation. Imagine living in the street or, at best, a TENT!

Look, to cut a long story short, look at the way they ran the freeways. NO exits to the suburbs but right out to where the big car-makers made their homes. Read the Autobiography of Malcolm X! Talks all about it the overt racism and what it did to the inner city.

It IS getting better, though. I love the city and will defend it to the death. It IS Hockeytown, USA even if people can't afford tickets. Ignorant dolt, anyone who could think otherwise. Never been here.
