yerkwantai has given two one stars unwritten reviews, a bit suspicious if you ask me.

I am so happy you saw that!!! LOL
 
Yes, Raf!! This is in reference to the Colosseum track. LA was the drug capital of the world (as far as consumption is concerned) during the 70's and it is little wonder why English groups settled there (the famous "Ryatt hotel"). When I got to LA with a bunch of friends, all we could think off was to get out of there. The only song we played that night was the Colosseum (both version >> the studio that stands on the Grass Is Greener and the live version) and we got out the next morning.....
 
 
 
 
DP: come on, this is not so bad either.
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Oh right, when I checked his page earlier, the computer must have stalled because it showed only about 20 reviews and most of them were 1 stars.Confused

Hughues, why did you leave that annoyingly long discography list in the bio? It's duplication of information at best Smile

And I'm not going to fight the battle on whether or not they should be included. They're here - to stay and to be enjoyed (although maybe not by all). Thumbs%20Up

I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests. Promo's for ariplay can be sent to [email protected]

Jody,
 
You of all people (as an Admin) should know this was M@X's decision. Bob approached over a month ago for this and I don't  think I have said one bad word of Sabbath in my text. Therefore I don't see why metalheads and PM fans should really take it badly.
 
I know BS gets a lot of bs for the supposedly satan image, but I don't see the same for hatred for Black Widow.

greatThumbs%20Up, just trying not to offend, too often I've read reviews by critics and in the process run down half a dozen of my favourite bands in ther process, and it get a bit Angry as a result, so I don't want to do the same thing.

Indeed, but what Metallica have on their side is that Dream Theater used their riffs, song and bridge structures, overall methods of composition, and covered their albums, and... Wink
The important thing is not to stop questioning.

Because you're supposed to fill it in >> this is in the form you have to fill in., for oneWink
 
I stopped at 1998, so it should be longer, for twoTongue
 
I didn't pit the posthumous release, compilations and other, just historical studios and live albums. >> so I kept it short, for threeLOL
