Social Distortion - Angel's Wings I couldn't wait. If my Social D hype is at this level now, it will be interesting to see how crazy I am the week before the show... So, Mike sings about love a lot on this record. And man, the chorus to Highway 101 is a killer. Rock solid work from Mike Ness & co.

Wow it's like PowerStone central over here. I guess I'll pile on... they were revolutionary and fun, and they weren't the only great games for the DC. My favorites were the NBA 2K and Virtua Tennis games, they were always a blast with friends. There were also a crap-load of good racing games, like Hydro Thunder and that Tokyo challenge racing thing. And it's wasn't a racing game, but Crazy Taxi was a lot of fun too. And you can't mention the DC without bringing up how completely Soul Calibur owned the fighter market in the DC's heyday.

I'm just a brother who never compromised his integrity! The song "Ghetto Pop Life" is pretty sweet, IM(barely educated)O. I mean, he's got a bullet in the clip. He also has a lyric he could spit. So what do you want? Johnny Cash - Let the Train Blow the Whistle

Those liner notes are on par with Biafra's! Also the "new" song titles are gold. Kirottu, I watched about two seconds of that video and saw a well-oiled male chest. I believe I will watch the rest later. If you know what I mean. Catch 22 - Kristina (She Don't Know I Exist) 3rd wave ska FTW!

Pot to kettle: "You are black." ^ That's us.

My social life is just fine, thank you very much! I just work a job where I'm chained to a desk with not much to do. Edit: Holy crap, Lucius, you're right.

^ Amen. And itty-bitty post counts can be deceiving. Hell, I'm closing in on 1000 WoT posts! How did that happen?

That's right, keep that love for Purple coming: STP - Big Empty

Stone Temple Pilots - Still Remains

Fannnnnn-tastic! Also fantastic! Reminded me of something Cake would do.

WARNING: this video will probably freak you out, and I would not advocate watching it at work. There's some graphic drug use. This sucker came out in 1991. Talk about ahead of your time.

Oh this forum isn't for the transients. Check the KOTOR fora for that, most WOT vets haven't set foot over there in years. This is a habitat for the folks who came long ago - for reasons that have long since been buried under the oceans and deserts - and decided to stay.

That really should be enough to end this argument. Rules are nice, but immersion should trump it every time. Would it have been better if Nines said "Run! ... unless your constitution is above 18 and you have a discipline that buffs your saving throws and you have taken three proficiencies in blunt weaponry! Then you can fight it and possibly win, if it fails a few saves of its own!" As evidenced by by poor lingo, I don't know the WoD rules system. But I do know enough to listen to what NPCs have to say. That's part of the experience, and that's my point. I know PnP grooms gamers to have numbers running around in the back of their heads, but you can't just shut down when the game throws something unexpected at you that doesn't play by the rules.

I saw that Hinder song on VH1 the other morning. I was mostly surprised they were playing a rock video that wasn't Nickleback so I didn't listen too carefully. At least they still play some videos, unlike MTV, which is content to show spoiled California brats obsess over tans and parties. Seriously, that Laguna Beach show depresses me. Posies - Please Return It

Most excellent Phil Spector avatar!

That was cool indeed. The piano part is reminiscent of Phillip Glass' "The Hours." I remembered the music from a music appreciation course I took in college, and the numerous comments on YouTube reminded me of the composer.

Well I've spend quite a lot of time on this already, and I know I'll be spending more on it later. I wish I could save my game, ya know?

So I don't watch American Idol, but I know a lot of people do. Things like this make me wonder how many of those people create photo montages of American Idol candidates. And I would be there's an even smaller percentage of that subset of humanity who would dare cross the fresh-faced, nubile American Idol runner-up Katharine McPhee with the world's coolest lecher and epitome of the male id, Greg Dulli. That said, I don't think it's as creepy as the Garfield thing I posted a few days ago. (The song is "66" by the Afghan Whigs)

Ornatos Violeta - Chaga This sounds like it could make a big splash over here. Catchy riffs and melodies, very upbeat. Their sound calls to mind My Chemical Romance without the histrionics and melodrama. And now, Afghan Whigs - Crime Scene Part One

Yeah, heard four songs from it on the local college radio station. "No Suprises" was probably my favorite, although "Let Down" was pretty cool as well. The Posies - Golden Blunders

Oh right, the dude running and the car. Yeah, that was pretty weird too. I like Radiohead up to OK Computer. After that they decided to ditch the guitars for beeps and boops, and they got real boring real fast. I still listen to The Bends every now and then. Great album. There was a guy I worked with in college who thought OK Computer was the greatest piece of music ever composed by a human being. It's good, but all the people like that guy just make me want to leave the pretentious art rock in the dust and go listen to the Supersuckers.

I'm gonna have to pick up that Social D album... maybe at the show. Oh and is the Karma Police video any weirder than the Paranoid Android video? Because I swear I had nightmares after I first saw that thing...

There's some good links in there. YouTube seems to be down for me anyway though, or else I'd find something fresh for ya, Mus. Oh man, I remember seeing that show on Letterman. That was the first time I saw WZ do anything but "Werewolves." Dave gave him the entire show to talk and play music. He was a big fan. Nice find, Kor! Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band - Prove it All Night Live in 1978. Man, the Boss could shred that Tele back in the day. (w00t) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The Lemonheads - Bit Part
