EDIT: Well, what shall I put in my CD-player now? Any recommendations?

Heck, I'd recommend something calm after all this metal mania

Go for Talk Talk's "Colour of Spring" album, if you will. Very relaxing, great musicianship.

I fully agree with that, Peter.

Have you fallen in love with a picture, Paco ?  Remember, photos always lie, particularly with women 

I think she's too old for me! Besides, I already have a very nice good-looking, adorable girlfriend! And I'm too much in love with my girlfriend to have a cyber-relationship with Bluey. No hard feelings Bluey! And you do look good in that picture! But what I was joking about was that I referred to her as a "bunch of good guys". But you didn't get the joke... Ah well, maybe next time.

That's maybe going a bit tooo far, kiddo 

You think so? Well, I know that it's hard sometimes... As a progger it's really hard not to look down on someone who's listening to rap, eh?

Yeah, Paxi, long time since you've played Awake. Give it a spin, huh ?  Man, what an album 

Great idea man! Will do!

Dream Theater - Awake
1. 6:00

Ahhhhh YES!!!

You know, Paxi, in modern slang, "guys" refers to all humans, no matter what sort of bulges they have 


NP  Master Of Puppets  (on repeat)

I'm really impressed 

This is entirely merited (Wiki, my boldface):

"Metallica's third studio album, Master of Puppets, was recorded at Sweet Silence Studios [in Copenhagen, guys] and was released in March 1986. The album peaked at number 29 on the Billboard 200, and spent 72 weeks on the chart. The album was the band's first to be certified gold on November 4, 1986, and was certified six times platinum in 2003.[3] Some critics, including Steve Huey of All Music Guide, consider the album to be the 'greatest heavy metal album of all time', and earned Metallica the title of the 'pioneers of thrash metal'."

Actually, that's the same over here in Holland.

Now playing Star One
Space Metal
Disc 2
1. Hawkwind Medley

I'm sorry Peter, I'm really in a metal mood today!
But after this I will look if there's something in my collection to smoke sigars on.

Sorry to offend you, Bupie but you can't blame a man for being honest.   

NP> Queensryche - Operation:Mindcrime

Since it's classic-album time (revering to Nicky's Master Of Puppets  ) i might as well tag along. 

So, no Arena and no Ayreon tonight.

Marcello is

ADDICTED TO FROST*

Seriously guys, I've played nothing but Frost* since about Wednesday, and I've been watching all of Jem's videos on YOUTUBE

http://www.youtube.com/user/planetfrost

[PH]

Yeah! Frost is good!!
I still remember Jem putting Black Light Machine for download! That was two years ago! And I was stunned! And the song still makes my jaw drop to the floor! It still has not lost its beauty...

I'm having a good old Mike Oldfield oldies feel good moment.
Tubular Bells all the way!


-Paco

[Teunis]

Here's another 'Frostie' looking forward to the new album 

Just finished Satellite - Into The Night

np: Arena - Contagion

Track: Spectre at the Feast 

[Teunis]

The Buggles - The Age of Plastic

Golden oldie 

[PH]

I have played:

Solas - Another Day
Solas - Waiting For An Echo

And I am now playing
Porcupine Tree - Nil Recurring
Track: Normal

Through last.fm

This is also very nice music. But this is Porcupine Tree, so it's not entirely strange...


-Paco

[PH]

Frank Klepacki - Universe At War: Earth Assault

Timeless!

Saturday night so Dave's O'prog show.

Though sadly it's for the last time.
He's going to have a break for a while.

I'm tuning in.
Nice guitar solo at the moment, I have no idea what music this is, but that doesn't care. It's prog!
But I think it's RPWL...

By the way, on the schedule it says that 16 february is another Dave O Prog Show.

-Paco

That's odd since he just said that he's going to have a break for a while.
He might be replaced by someone else for a while.

Phideaux - Micro Death Star

Yeah, this is nice music. I should have listened to Dave O Prog Show more often.

Hey Mad, could it be that your 'name' was mentioned? It was just after Part Zero by Pineapple Thief. I wasn't exactly following what was said, I only heard that the host was talking about Ayreon and then I heard 'so thanks for that Maddox!'. Just found it funny!

NP: Frost* - Milliontown on the Dave O Prog Show

Tom

Hehe, indeed Tom. 

About a month ago he mentioned me and my son Chris on the show. It's broadcasted live in England and on the Net, you know so i really wanted to have a copy of that.
He just confirmed on the air that he's almost ready with it. 

I listen almost every week.
Sadly this is the last show of him.

WOWOWOW Fantasticai

So this show is from this English neck of the woods!

Is the man in the corner playing Frost* Dave O' Prog? If so, he's headbanging to milliontown like a beast!

Hehe, he is indeed. 

His real name is Dave O'neill by the way.

NP  Mr. Bungle:  Disco Volante

Rather special, to say the least ..... but if I tell you that Mike Patton is in the mix, you may have some inkling

Mike Patton and Dillinger Escape Plan is about a million times better than Dillinger Escape Plan... on their own... with no Patton based guidance!

Now playing:

Arena - Contagion, Contagium and Contagious

What a wake up call!

Its back now... i think it was my computer playing up to be fair

Marcello, I think that what you're implying is that Dillinger in general are very noisy, and that they're a bit more melodic on Irony Is A Dead Scene (with Mike Patton), but their latest studio album Ire Works is quite melodic too (relatively iac), and the're some real brilliant passages on it. You can start with the beautiful Milk Lizard; I posted a link to the video about a week ago.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Dillinger and Poison The Well on March 5 in Copenhagen 

Who says that you have to be staid once you've passed 50 ?

Who says that you have to be staid once you've passed 50 ?   

This is absoloutley fantastic thinking nicky! I in no way see myself as being much different when I'm 50... never too young and never too old for the prog scene, I'm quite the spring chicken at almost 18!

Dillinger are good, it's just that I prefered the collaborative stuff with Patton. He treats his voice as an instrument rather than just for singing words with all the throat hitting and vocalizations he uses.
