Dark Tranquility - Static

Casual Walks A Better Pain

My first real memory of music was driving to the grocery store with my mom and asking her to play 'Desperado' and 'The Heart of the Matter' by The Eagles/Don Henley over and over. Hell Freezes over was the first album I ever bought, and I got into soft rock when I got a tape player for an early birthday. I had Alanis Morisette, Tom Petty, Tom Cochrane and some other stuff I forget. As I got a bit older, I got really into Barenaked Ladies, and I still am. Then I hit the phase where I liked Green Day, Goldfinger, and shitty bands like that. Around this time I also discovered Matthew Good and he helped wean me off of that garbage. I also found and got heavily into the Goo Goo Dolls, and I've seen em live 4 or 5 times. They were my favourite band for a long while, though Matthew Good eventually eclipsed them by a large margin. I also started getting into metal, with my first exposure being to 'Embody the Invisable' by In Flames, and eventually leading to Blind Guardian and Iron Maiden. Some hard punk like Thursday was also in there. The Matthew Good obsession continued to this day, and I now listen to all genres and types of music, from Rilo Kiley to Kamelot, Bush to Lisa Loeb, Sonata Arctica to Matthew Good. I also did a lot of listening to Matchbox 20 and Incubus, though I don't remember where these fall chronologically. In terms of bands that influenced my devlopment, I'd say the top ones are: The Eagles Barenaked Ladies Goo Goo Dolls Matthew Good So what's your musical story?

Ok, mine is gonna suck, as I'm just browsing around iTunes and finding whatever hits me first. but I'll go for it. Opening credits: Kamelot - Centre of the Universe Childhood: Goo Goo Dolls - Already There Friendship: hmmm... The Eagles - Heart of the Matter Falling in love: Something Corporate - Konstantine Love: Matty - Fine Art Breaking up: no idea, but I'm usually happy when I break up, so something celebratory. Life's okay: Tom Cochrane - Life is a Highway Growing up: Tragically Hip - Ahead bya Century. I don't even really like this song, but it embodies growing up pretty well. Mental breakdown: Thursday - I Am the Killer Learning a lesson: hmm...Barenaked Ladies - I Live With It Every Day Flashback: no idea Partying: Sex and Candy! The fast version by Flip Nixon Death: Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper Closing credits: hmmm...House of Smoke and Mirrors?

Probably not, as there are other places I'd rather go first. If you could choose between the following two superpowers which would you pick? 1. Being able to telepathically communicate with mollusks. 2. Being able to make popcorn pop without a microwave using the power of your mind.

Once you've had encoded bits of binary, you never go back ;)

I LOVE the Dark Tower series. Here's my review in brief: Minor Spoilers The Gunslinger: Slow and boring up until the end, where he meets Walter. Then it gets wicked. The Drawing of the Three: Fucking amazing, Probably the best in the series The Wasteland: Very good. Wizard and Glass: Mindnumbingly boring, though the begginning, where they finish up with Blaine is really cool. Wolves of the Calla: Fucking awesome, though the book is really long and it feels like not a lot really happens. They save the town, learn a bit about the retarded plot, and thats about it. Song of Suzannah and The Dark Tower: Both are amazing The part with Dandelo, when Suzanna sees that it is an anagram of Odd's Lane is....amazing. The ending got a lot iof complaints but really, it couldn't have ended any other way.

The Eagles - I Can't Tell You Why

Lacuna Coil - Self Deception

Shame it'll be 19+ and my birthday is in September

I'll probably make it up, as Barrie is only an hour drive from my place.

The Police willa lways be classic, but I personally don't really like them that much. 7.5/10 for their legacy. Tom Cochrane

North American for Life Rico

Metric - White Gold

Good Times by Tome Cochrane

Learning to Fly - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Yeah, I have an insane crush on Dana's voice. I remember hearing her sing 2 years ago and knowing I had to jam with her. A few months ago she finally relented and here we are. I'll be sure to pass on your compliments to her. She's pretty modest so it'll make her happy. As for me singing, meh. I'm ok I guess. I took vocals for a few years before I fell in love with drumming. Hopefully I'll do a few more songs without such bad backup next time we jam. As for the tab, next time we have a band meeting, I'll try and grab it for ya. I remember it being a pretty simple progression though. Also, we need a band name! Any good ideas? My current frontrunner is Disastrophe, but it sounds a little...I dunno. Not really representative of the genre of music we play. Thanks a lot for all of the positive comments guys, you've really made my day.

Oh Be Joyful Pony Boy

Fall - Something Corporate

I'm Burning for You by Blue Oyster Cult

Today fucking sucked. A lot. ;)

I used to like vodka. Then I discovered Southern COmfort and Sambuca.

Yeah, I thought it was Churchill as well.
