Haha, not much... just being lazy. Headbanging to Meshuggah. Listened to Systematic Chaos twice before that.

Yeah, but you don't even have to use it except when we're playing. That's the trouble with messengers. Not everyone has the same one. So I had to choose something.

So when do you plan on playing? Although I guess it wouldn't matter because you'd post on PA before you got it started

Yes, mars Volta are good. Can someone tell me why people keep calling them INNOVATIVE?
Unique + good =/= innovative
Unabashed link to disgruntled blog post from June (the month, not the member ):

If you are unique, how is that not innovative? They are synonyms.

innovative implies that you have 'innovated' something, while unique implies that you are unlike others in your catagory. I could bang on walls, record it and call it a record - that would be unique, but no one would care nor ever follow up on my works, so it would have innovated nothing and furthermore, Fish is going to rape you:

You are making a distinction without a difference. Being unique requires innovation, otherwise you would not be original enough to be unique.

How can you call something innovative without knowing if it will innovate anything? It really can only be applied retroactively to bands which would become known as "influential" since other people would then be using the traits that the innovative band has innovated.
What makes Kayo Dot (for instance) innovative? Mars Volta have a unique sound, but what makes them innovative? what have they innovated?

Refer to the thread; times can be suggested there. Right now it looks like sometime in the evening (EST). We'll figure that out for sure once I see if I get more people registered.
