Yeah, but it's not much.

Vliegen and Verdasco heading for the third tiebreak.

Yes, and there's nothing "random" about their music at all.  Quite in the other direction, really.


That's exactly what I was thinking about when I wrote my last post. I really enjoy UZ immensely, and their music does not depress me, on the contrary. As for HC, they had all of their albums at NEARfest, but I had to choose what to get, and those can wait a little bit... Anyway, I do like Leg End, though some of the dissonant parts can be a bit hard to take - my favourite tracks are those leaning more towards the Canterbury side of things, like "The Ten Funerals of the Citizen King".

They might be serious in that they want to do that, but their capability is well short of it.

Put it this way - I'm an American, and I'm not losing any sleep about North Korea's statements.  Although I do consider firing a missile towards Hawaii as an act of war, and that we should feel free to retaliate.
The only problem I have with this statement is it is the poor citizen of North Korea that would suffer from our retaliation and they have suffered quite enough I think.  And this includes most of their military who have no choice but to serve.  I think that in this case, similar to with Iran, we would need to have a surgical strike that takes out the top tier idiots that have the power and not the minions who have no choice but to follow or die.


Well, our retaliation would be along those lines anyway - strikes on missile sites and nuclear facilities.  Taking out what little capability they have.  If NK loses support of even China, they'll be in trouble.  And I think lobbing a missile towards us would lose that support.

I'm half-heartedly watching on the BBC site and it's on one of my Firefox tabs so I occasionally switch over to take a look.

Maybe it's your browser, I see it fine and all, and the picture on its left is not big enough as to bury the music sig under.

Dammit, Garcia-Lopez, go play elsewhere.

I really wish I'd see the match, to observe is Fed is playing casual, or panning with brilliance. Probably the first.

Could be my browser. Or my screen resolution settings.
