You know, you could always make an AoB playlist and throw All Together there and find out for yourself ;)

I like it, but like others said, it kinda gets lost in the shuffle on AoB.

Saw it in IMAX 3D today and thought it was very good, though it's really just a supersized version of Fern Gully.

It starts with A, if that helps at all.

The Fall of Man and Under the Influence were both played when MGB was touring in between Loser Anthems and Audio- twas awesome to hear them live. I love AoB- I think it is definitely among his best work and easily one of my favorite albums ever, it contains my fave song ever (Protest Song), and this, along wih Beautiful Midnight, really helped me get through some tough shit I've had to deal with in my life, so for me there's a definite emotional connection with those 2 albums in particular. For me, even before finding out what happened with the band during the recording of AoB, I felt to me like an album that was about someone self-destructing and having seemingly everything fall apart around him, but then the last 30 seconds of Protest Song (the "no pain, no gain, no pain", plus the final, picked guitar part) almost redeems it I guess- it's like it's saying that yes, things are godawful and fucking shitty right now, but you can work through it, you will become a better person because of it, you will learn from it and you will move on, and that's something I latched onto. Given what we know about what happened during that time, I don't find it surprising that MG doesn't go back to visit most of those songs- for me, it would be like if Shay and I broke up and I was stuck with all the stuff we bought together and had that reminder eating away at me all the time. I love that he revisited some of the songs, like Tripoli, Rat, Carmelina, and Protest Song for a couple tours- it was great to hear them, and hearing Protest Song those couple of times are some of my most cherished concert memories ever.

I won't lie, I just checked what camera you used on the flickr photo pages, because it tells you. -
Also, if you do manage to install another anti-virus software, chances are the new software and the old software will start conflicting and try to eliminate each other, causing more problems.

So far I have recieved nothing, and I don't even have any idea about what anyone is getting me. I am hoping for guitar effects, because I asked for a few.
