Knowing Seans love of Rush it would be a fitting tribute to them if he stopped for a short time. Maybe he could make his 2112th review a Rush CD.Wink

He could stop for a year and still be in front.

Or he could write them and then submit them all at once after a fitting pause (minutes silence?).

are you kidding me.... LOL

Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling
He could leave 'em to hang
Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan.



 more than 700 reviews in less than 6 months , all long ones, very clear and complete, none in the 4-5 lines kind you see all the time around here)

He could type them in a word processor and then just copy and paste them after a fitting interlude by liberal use of copy and paste.Big%20smile

Your so called pitiful attempts are better than mine. A total of zero reviews as we write. I actually like Sean's reviews partly for the reasons you mentioned above.

But come on 2112 is a very special number.Clap

Judging by your lack of appearance in the top 100 that might just take a while unless you cheat.

Which Rush album would you save for your 2112nd review. Could it be 2112?

That album is often overlooked, but it is more interesting than many of their later CDs.

At the rate I review I'll have to live longer than the universe.

it was the album I wore out when I learned to play bass.. so it has sentimental attachment.  The lyrics are just plain silly... but  the music is pretty good stuff.

2112 was the one I wanted to play when learning the guitar. I had not heard any other Rush at that stage. My friends and I used to play 2112 reasonably but we could never do the vocals.Wink

Anyway, getting back on the topic, do you think if I sent a pm to Sean he would consider it?

Same sound on those two albums >> Listen to Camera and Owner oF A Fart, this is the same kind of production. >> I've written better reviews than that one!!Pig
 
2112 >> one of my fave reviews of mine!Embarrassed
 
2112 >> Yes, I had pondered stopping at that mark, but now that it is quite near (I've gone way past that if you check the total amounts of reviews that are less than 50 words), I guess I'll stop for a small sabbatical, but I don't really plan stopping reviewng.
 
I am not that happy with some of the latest development in PACensored, and with a few outside personal issues Heart(rather pleasant but unsettling) , I've had less time to invest in here.
 
So Clem has temporarily taken direction of Prog Folk, until I decide to return, if I can swallow some of the recent events here!Ouch
 
At the rate ZowieZiggy is reviewing, he'll soon overtake Bob, Gatot and Erik (the only one really wanting that #1spot), meaning that at least Belgium is not just good in Tennis, Chocolate and Beers.....TongueBig%20smileLOL

Don't have a long rest. Just enough to give due recognition to 2112. Good luck with the Heart.

By the way what did you vote for on the poll?

you have Hugues..     the production may be the same.. and musically they are very different.  In structure and it sound...  Squire was neutered on 90125... his Rick blazed on Drama... on 90125... he was put way in the background.. that was the beginning of when he started to phone it in as he has admitted.  Rabin was no Howe... want a classic overproduced 80's guitar sound... listen to 90125.  Howe on Drama was a beast.

They are alike only in some production... and the fact that Squire and White played on both.

oh christ.... got an hour LOL

simply... it is a different sub-genre... lots of different sounding groups in there.  Your best bet is to check the samples... and go from there.  Find you stuff you like.. and based on that ...I can set you up with some ideas.

http://www.progarchives.com/subgenre.asp?style=28 - http://www.progarchives.com/subgenre.asp?style=28

it is not a symphonic sub-genre.. it was changed this spring in practice.. but the name hasn't been changed yet.

Huges could retire 'Sean Trane' and start a new username...

That way there would be a fitting tribute and he could continue his excellent reviews.

Only you have seen the conditions I live in Holland and are able to understand how I write these.
 
I have yet to write a review during the week ends (although I think I submitted some in PA during, but never written one)
 
I'll give it a small rest.... then start again
