Finding out we had a gig booked the same night as the System of a
Down/Mars Volta show. The gig was a good time, but I'd rather have been
at that show...

Missing the Mars Volta show in the city because I discovered them a little too
late.
EDIT: But not too sad since I will catch them on their next tour.

In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises

Seeing the mispelling "disapointments" sure is disappointing, and depressing. There's so much damn illiteracy online, it's not even funny.

With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.

Seriously: My biggest musical disappointment of this year was Therion - Vovin. I bought it a montha go, listened to it many times and found nothing good about it. I just wrote my first 2 star review ...

I always have these music nights with 4 of my Dutch friends, where we let each other listen to our newest cd's and make lists like the PA polls. It's always fun. I happen to be a vicar and I needed to organize a funeral service just when I was on my way to Holland.
Luckily I'm invited to another music night next week

Sigur Ros - Takk.
I just can't connect with it for some reason, and I loved () and Agnes Brighton or whatever it is called.
