OK, I finally have time to write a bit more about MAGfest. On the way to MAGfest, I had a minor sore throat -- my guess is that at any other time of year, it would have been a mild cold. However, at MAGfest it is unusual to sleep more than an hour or two per night, and this year was no exception. The result, of course, is that this run-of-the-mill cold turned into the cold from hell. Uber sore throat and zero energy for the whole weekend. Also, by the end of the con half the attendees (if not more) had the same thing. And despite this, it was STILL face-meltingly awesome. Jamming with the Xenotones, going to concerts, and best of all sharing a few TITANIC pizzas with the OCR crew. Not to mention my annual epic Tetris Attack/Panel De Pon battle with Bahamut (he finally beat me this year -- I'll have to whip his ass extra hard next year). All in all, it was an amazing weekend, as MAGfest always is. Can't wait for next year.

SO I've decided I'm just going to come straight up to MAGfest today. See you all tonight!

Aw, definitely gonna miss seeing your name on all the NO decisions, Andy. Hope you'll still be around and be a part of the community. Don't go all Gray Lightning on us.

Oh, man, I'm really torn here; a local friend of mine is throwing a new year's eve bash with a bunch of old friends that I haven't seen in several years, including one female friend from highschool who... well, lemme put it this way: starla actually has the second best ass I've seen. So I'm debating whether I want to come to MAGfest tomorrow or hit the new years bash and then head up new years day.

Guys, enough. Teeth doesn't like rap, but many of the rest of us think it's fine. All of this has been established and isn't going anywhere. Now, this Moaning Lisa thing, on the other hand....

But accurate

Patrick wins hard.

As I said several pages ago, the source is very well suited to it. The bulk of it is beat-driven, with brief melodic breaks, which is perfect for rap. That would be pretty awesome. No. It wouldn't. There isn't currently, but we still have time. I'll talk to Josh about it, and tell him you requested it.

Damn, willrock, you're just cranking them out! Definitely your best to date, imo.

New fuzz pedal sounds AMAZING! I don't think I've ever played through another pedal that responds so well to dynamics in playing. I'm probably going to be looking for every possible excuse to use it in my stuff from now on.

The narrative really wasn't bad; it was nothing life-changing, it wasn't entirely original, but it wasn't bad. It was completely acceptable. But to me, complaining about the plot being unoriginal is missing the point. It would be like complaining about a weak plot in Tetris Attack; the point of the movie isn't the narrative. To me, the main purpose was to show us another world, a stunningly beautiful garden of eden on another planet. The narrative was peripheral; you could have completely stripped the narrative elements from the movie and it STILL would have been amazing. The movie didn't set out to tell a wildly compelling story, it set out to show us a lush imaginary universe in stunning and visually BEAUTIFUL detail. And it succeeded completely.

Every mix of mine posted on the site to date (except one) has acoustic guitars.

The biggest thing I got (or am getting -- it's still being worked on as I'm typing this) is a custom fuzz pedal designed and built by my cousin. This pedal will DEFINITELY be making an appearance at MAGfest

Still Christmas Eve here as well. Preparing for big Christmas celebrations tonight and tomorrow. Tonight, my extended family will gather around the piano (which is right next to the tree) and sing christmas carols together, after which my grandfather (if he's coherent enough) will read "The Night Before Christmas." And tomorrow morning, we'll all exchange gifts, like we do every year. I should perhaps mention that this group consists of six jews, eleven agnosts/atheists, and zero christians. Anyway, may you all thoroughly enjoy your holiday of choice.

Happy Saturnalia!

Dyne, sorry I couldn't get my track done for this year. I'll definitely have something for next year's album. Also, checking this out as soon as I get home.

Also: Neytiri was hot as holy hell.

Archaeon, I think I love you.

Hey, there have been plenty of other projects that have taken MUCH longer than this one. So STFU (also, for some reason I thought you were older than me)

It is in the works and should be released within the next month or two.

This is exactly why it would have been so touching, imo. Because we were lead to believe malon was dead.

I herd he likes drunk naked guys.

Holy shit! EDIT: only one issue that I see: hips are too big. Not like, hot big, but like freakishly big

Who's level 99? Sum n00b?
