I literally jumped when I got your post on Facebook haha. I'm fucking stoked for this dude! Hopefully I can afford VIP packages or whatever if they're offered. I'm definately going to this!

FYI - Maiden never do VIP packages. For ticket prices, they will probably be between 25 (lawn) and 90 (orch pit). Best way to get pit tickets to pay to be a fan club member and get in on the presales. Plus, you can enter to win first to the barrier, where you are let into the venue before anyone else and get you spot up front!

The Fan Club is doing a trip to the Camden and DC shows and everyone on the trip automatically gets FTTB.

Awesome! I was thinking about joining the fanclub today but wasn't sure it'd help me with tickets that soon. Camden would be the show I attend.

I hate snow b/c I have to drive in it or else I'd love it.

I love that Robert Fripp wrote the liner notes for the BGO reissues of Robin Trower's 70s catalog.

If I ever win the lottery, the first thing I'm buyin' is a flame thrower.

...so in other words, there are a LOT of people out there who better pray that I never win the lottery.

As long as you join in by the end of the week, you'll be good to go! The IMFC Mag is pretty cool too

I was going through a lot of demos I recorded during '04-'06 and I never realized how much Stoner laced riffs I had! Gonna spent a lot of time in the studio this weekend.

Unfortunately, during my "depressed cuz I didn't make it in the music biz" phase I never fully learned my recording software and I've even forgotten the basics. I'm at least grasping Victor Wooten's thumping technique on the 8 string! So far just the thumb and index finger...

I now have two additional turntables:

Random Thoughts Thread - Page 40 Dual_110

Dual 1215-S: This fool packed it incorrectly so I ended up with a broken tonearm and headshell wire. I ordered a new tonearm and resoldered the wire back on. Never did get a partial refund from his blunder. I think I'm going to use this one mainly for 78s.

Random Thoughts Thread - Page 40 Dual_111

Dual 1219: this one had a bent tonarm that I bent back, But I ordered a new one for this, as well. The cartridge was incorrectly wired and gave off this awful hum until I figured out that it was the cart wiring and not the turntable. Sounds Great, though!

I knew that they were both fixer uppers, but the first guy really killed it!! I'm going to make a couple of nice plinths for them, too!

New FASTWAY in April! I'm actually pretty excited about this one, Jepson isn't a bad vocalist and Clarke says he went back to his blues roots with this one.

I think at least one person, usually more, in my household has been sick since Thanksgiving. Children are gross. I can't wait till spring and air-out that petri dish I call home.

*Aaaahhh-choooooo*
