You know as a person who would one day want to perform, it sickens me that we (myself included) have come to expect the encore. I mean we payed to see the set... the performer played the set, the contract is complete. The encore is the bonus, like getting cool artwork in the CD case. I don't know why it is so expected, and why people are so upset when a artist declines the encore. If Matt had walked off the stage halfway through his set, then I would understand people being pissed, but he finished the set. If you take the bus, and the bus driver drops you off at your stop, would you be pissed? would you expect the driver to drop you off in front of your house? no, of course not, the stop is the contract, in front of your house is bonus. The set is the contract, the encore is bonus. This 'Worst show ever' is just fucking bullshit. Bah

why don't all go over there and flame nearfantastica.com on their board... the moderators might edit it and ban us... but there can only work so fast... and if we all do it... Peace P.S. By the way, this site shows up on a google search way more than this 'metro' you speak of. That's how I found it... I was looking for the ASR video, and ended up here.

yeah... the man with the artificial heart vs a muppet with a gimmer stick

Hate mail it is... lots of hate mail!!!! Let the flaming begin (and the signing up to dirty porn sites) ;) just kidding Peace

I like the fact that ASR uses a more subtle message (by indirect associate) which contrasts nicely with how the message of the lyrics is so direct and strong. Peace

money buys the rating in the states... I've seen it, movies that I have watched that hear have a 14A, and are pretty clean, get the R. But movies with a higher bank role, that are 18A here, make PG13 down there...

when I went to see Fahrenheit 9/11 it cost me $8 a person (x2)... and that was weekend matinee... so with parking down town at the premium theater... It totaled out to a $20 dollar evening... Now I can rent a movie for $5... and then if I'm evil, rip it, and have it forever... In conclusion, movies are far to expensive... and don't even get me started on the snack bars... I ask for a cup of water once, and they told me that they had to sell the cup at FULL price... that is total BS. Peace

"That's the rub" and you have put your finger on the magic spot... the point where you realize that the problems in the USA are caused by guns, but the USA doesn't think guns are the problem. <<enter scapegoat>> you name it, we've heard it: the violence in movies, the computer games... It's not the fact that people in the USA are so obsessed with their self protection that they own guns... and for that matter are prepared to use them if they feel threatened (note feel... no threat has to exist), no, that is not the reason, it is violence in movies. The USA has repeatedly show that they as a people, and a country will respond with deadly force to the inference of a threat. proof: The man that was shoot at a costume party because he was dressed as a cowboy, complete with toy gun. The police where called to the scene on a noise disturbance, and the guy thought they where party guests, waved the toy gun in the air, and was shoot 6 times by the attending officers. (I'm not sure if I got the details of this correct, but the general story is correct) As Mr Moore states in Bowling for Columbine, the day the columbine tragedy happened, the USA dropped more bombs on kosivo then at any other time during that confrontation, but that didn't make the papers did it? (I'm not sure if it was kosivo... I find it hard to keep track of everybody the USA drops bombs on) I would now like to apologize for how off topic I am... this about Alert Status Red. Unfortunately, I like perl, have loose type checking ;) In reference to ASR though, other than the clips from columbine, what else in the video suggests columbine. Or are we drawing columbine, because at the highest level of abstraction, the song is about the overriding social issues in North American (USA). It would then follow that columbine is a true example of these overriding social issues. We could also take the lead that ASR is a result of the social issues, that are directly descendent from those that cause columbine (it is a circle). i.e. that the US attitude that caused columbine also caused the anti-american attitude present in a large number of groups around the world, this in turn causes threat to the US, and therefor ASR. Well... that's about all the pseudo intellectual drivel for now, Peace

bah. phaser my ass. (are we considering ships based on quantization, i.e. the ships and weapons maintain there respect power in a interim universe? or are we considering the logical real world knowledge of technology, i.e. we know that a turbo laser canon would be weaker then a phased energy device) Peace

Yo... you can prove the existence of anti matter... or more accurately the existence of quarks with exotic spins (and hence anti-protons). They have been created in a lab, but are only stable for infinitesimal periods of time. And the Darth would choke Picard down so he couldn't tell Worf to 'fire at will'... and the highly structure command system would all fall to shreds. muhahahaha

I'm pretty sure that they are from real clips (most likely columbine)... they are all from about the same time as the main columbine clip. Peace

Yo, I wanted to show you some stills from ASR that you might not have caught, they are flash framed... they only appear for 2 frames ( 1/15 of a second) so they appear as flickering. Flash framing was used as a form of subliminal advertising. I doubt that is what these frames are for. These are both thumbs (click them to get the full image) Peace
