is there like some technique to how you hammer on the string? cos all i can manage is a dull whimper of a thud most times...particularly on the G, B, e strings. :shame: ...loving 'Older Chests' right now. :D

Kasabian
it's so tight & white that i can even see that he's got a dark singlet on under it! :sweatdrop:

Damien Rice

Coldplay End of Decade Clearout Sale (catalogue discussion pg43 onwards, winning item pics pg151 onw
*sigh* the starting prices of these things are never the problem...it's how high it gets especially with bidders who can afford to set huge "maximum bid" values. :disappointed:

say: "you're entitled to your own opinion & so am i...so let's just agree to disagree & move along." ...life's too short to argue about something as personal as music preference. :dozey:

YouTube Playing Issues
actually, she hasn't upgraded to Firefox 3.5 yet. her browser's still on 3.0.15 anyway, this problem shouldn't be because of an older Firefox browser & i'll echo winnie's suggestion to re-install the Java & Flash plug-ins. another thing to check, if you haven't already, is whether any of your media players (WMP, iTunes, QuickTime, RealPlayer) may have been reset to be the default player for FLV files or streaming media in general.

i'll be in Victoria Station on Friday evening...not sure what time i'm heading down to London tho. & it's a bummer for me too, cos i won't be in UK even on the day of the gig. :(

Your Favorite Electronica
that's what i thought too...tho when i try to look a song's genre up in Wikipedia or those mp3 tagging tools, i get a whole assortment of stuff. e.g. Daft Punk = Euro House, Fatboy Slim = Big Beat .........me = :confused:
-
Your Favorite Electronica
i've always been rather confused about whether a band/DJ's music is electronica or house or something else... but i love these guys' stuff, anyway...electronica or otherwise. :D Moby Daft Punk Fatboy Slim (currently hooked on 'Wonderful Night' :P) Tiesto skankfunk Genki Rockets

Linkin Park
well, the reason it's a clearcut rip-off of 'What I've Done' is cos they are both linked back to Transformers. & 'New Divide' was specifically written for the movie, so guess they used 'What I've Done' to keep the theme consistent. love 'New Divide'...& love 'Minutes To Midnight' too. it sounds more "mainstream" than the other albums, but there are a few good tracks in there (Leave Out All The Rest, Hands Held High). my only beef with it is there's less "action" from Joe Hahn in that album. :( 'Meteora' is still the best from LP for me. :D

The Snow Patrol Thread
wow! a very well written review, Bernard! :D great to see that the hometown crowd got an extra song for the encore & the covers. i love the new version of Chasing Cars personally, but i can see how it throws most people off when they play it on the tour. it's barely recognisable from the original. @darkchoc92 : *lol* that video interview!!! she asked Gary some REALLY blush inducing questions there :wink3: ...almost spit out my coffee when i heard the questions! :laugh3:

Last.fm Best of 2009 Week 1
i like some of Nickelback's songs, but i would never ever rank them above U2 or GnR or Depeche Mode or Kasabian in a "Best of 2009" list!!! :shocked: & All-American Rejects are good, especially live, but to be above those acts too........particularly the old guards. then again, this is the site that somehow thinks that I've got a Coldplay song called 'How To Be Dead' on my playlist. :dozey:

The Snow Patrol Thread
yeah, i've always thought that he looks like he gets really into the song when he's singing...kinda like he's all high on the song. & he does seem to like his vintage graphic tees, doesn't he? haha even showed up for the Q Awards in one with the Kellog's cereal mascot(s) when everyone else was dressed up in suits! :lol:
