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.  ------------- One likes to believe In the freedom of music But glittering prizes And endless Compromises Shatter the illusion Of integrity |

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

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 ... ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/release-polls/pa" rel="nofollow - Release Polls Listened to:

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. |

Um, I ment the subjects English language and litriture (i know thats badly spelt). The only thing they ever did for me was creat a deep seeded hate of Shakespear and despite the fact that the teachers are constantly telling us that you cant go to uni without a C or higher at GCSE English (language) i am living proof that that is a load of ball s**t, as im posting from my hall of residence. ------------- Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005
