I've finally got a computer that works!! My old one broke down after just over a years use and if I was gonna repair it it would have cost me a...

Hi everybody!

I've been quite quiet here lately and the reason for this is that my computer has broken down on me, at the worst time possible. I have a paper due tomorrow which I can't possibly finish and I have another one in a week or two.

Right now I'm thinking about taking a break in my studies since I've got a pretty decent...

Good luck for London. I'll be there myself sometime in late summer. I'd like to see a chronicle of thoughts about it when you return.

How come you simply disappear?
Miss you really bad, dear!

First of, thank you guys for the happy birthdays I got!

I celebrated my birthday very low key since it was on a Monday and I started my new job on my birthday. I had some of my friends over we had some cake and played "Master of Music" which I got from my friends, it's like "Trivial pursuit" but with music, very funny!

So...

UHm. Happy belated birthday... I wasn't online this weekend so I kinda missed it.

takeahnase:
Flight of the Conchords is such a very strange show but that is quite the dilemma. I'm glad that you had a good birthday, man. Take it easy.

Fucking hypocrites!

The biggest Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet have had big "campaigns" about the environmental issue and all that and today they are announcing that they will have one more extra paper that you can buy with the original newspaper.

It is the same thing you can read on their website and pretty much the same thing as in another "extra paper" they sell together with...

Happy birthday man. Sorry I'm so late with it. shocked

I loved Origo, even though I still don't have it. I should get on it soon. One of my favorite things about Burst are the little background guitar fills you'll happen upon when you listen closely. Have you seen the live video for Rain that they have on their website? I'd love to catch them someday.

I'm late wishing you a happy birthday as well! I hope it was fabulous smile

Back to school.frown

Now it is back to reality in boring Kalmar again. I'm studying a program called Music Management which is way worse than it sounds. The first one and a half years were alright but now it is only marketing and other boring stuff we're studying and I won't even graduate after this semester as I was supposed to.

Ah well, it is...

Yeah wasn't what we expected at all! Still pissed off about it haha.

I might be going to sweden for a few days in my euro tour! I've got a mate there who can't attend the same fests I'm going to so I'm likely to pay her a visit the weekend before Wacken. I'll fill you in with details as they're created wink
teeman:
Damnit, I cant edit my above post but I just wanted to say that Burst sound pretty great! I've added em to my ebay list.

Happy new year and all that to you all. Hope you all have had a nice '08 so far. Mine has been pretty good. I've mostly been busy playing Zelda on my brother's Nintendo Wii.

I've been pretty busy since my last post.

  • I moved back to Sweden from UK.
  • I went on a one week vacation with my family over the holidays for some...

Hey mate biggrin
I'm only on about 6 days a fortnight because the other 8 days I'm at work and I can't access the site from there obviously haha.

I've figured out exactly how much time I get go over to Europe for and sorry mate SRF is outta my time frame. Im going to Metal Camp til Party San, so a month and a half. That should be enough to satisfy me biggrin

Goto this website for flights to Australia. It compares just about every flight in existance coming to and leaving from Australia haha. You thinkin of paying a visit?
nolongerhere:
No... never been to Rock am Ring. Waaaay too big, waaaay too many weird people (weird as in "stupid emo kids who think rock'n'roll is the way to go"), plus, I'm not even a fan of RATM... I like Metallica... But I'd be afraid they'd play too much of that St Anger crap.

Ok, so this is pretty unreal... I've got two tickets to see Led Zeppelin, LED F*iNG ZEPPELIN!!!

I got an e-mail from the website today congratulating me for "winning" the tickets, i.e. winning the chance to pay 140 per ticket and so I did of course. The thing is I don't really have the money for this! shocked
I'm totally broke now! I should follow in...

Led Zeppelin are a very good reason to go broke, my man. And I know the feeling about going to shows on your own, something which I still do with alarming frequency. The problem is that whilst I know plenty of metal fans, I know very few who are into the doom/avant-garde side of things.

As for Nasum, I caught them on their UK tour a few months before Mieszko passed. It was strange as I hadn't heard much of their stuff beforehand, but the show blew me away. I started getting into them, and grindcore in general, a lot heavier after that.

Good luck with the Zep tickets, my man smile
solipsis:
Oh I don't expect anyone to be safe with anything I say just yet. I definitely need to work on context. I should really delete that message in SG Sweden also. blackeyed

And, I'm beyond jealous that you got to see Nasum before the end.
Have a good one.

I have a love/hate relationship to eBay and the Swedish part of eBay called Tradera.com. There are just too many cool stuff on there, this part I love. Must of the stuff I really want is very very expensive, this part I hate!

I collect records and merchandise with my three favorite metal band Opeth, Nasum and Merciless. It's going quite well only Opeth and...

I'm too poor to collect things wink
takeahnase:
My addictions with eBay are:
Neurosis (though I nearly have everything) and related stuff
The Mad Capsule Markets
Cult of Luna
Boris
Unsane
though I generally am happy just to have one copy of each album unless I see the LP going scarily cheap. That's really impressive with Nasum though. Did you ever get to see them live?
