  1. It was cooler when Ghost posted it 6 posts before you.
  2. Happy Birthday!!
  3. Congrats to the Rangers, and to Big Al for being a die-hard Rangers fan over the years here!
  4. Yankees just got a gift on the play where the batter was hit, but not a single ump saw it. A-Rod was able to score on the past ball which shouldn'ta been a past ball. Hope that play doesn't determine the outcome.
  5. LOL Jeff! Happy Birthday to one of the great people on this board!
  6. Nice review in the Sep 10 issue of Prog: Album review from Prog Magazine, Sept 2010 issue (apologies for any typos I may have made!): "Relocator - self released Anything featuring former Dream Theater keyboardist Derek Sherinian is bound to pique the interest of a prog fan, and German quartet Relocator have got that. This debut has been five years in the making and even though Sherinian is making a guest appearance on this record, his influence is clear and constant. While opening track "Red Vibes" rocks hard then widdles away mysteriously and eloquently, "Biosphere" gets even heavier before relapsing into jazzier overtones and "Proxima" takes time before building into some amazing solos. Naming a song "Relocator" as well as your band and your album might seem like overkill but the song actually serves to be the finest example of what the band is about. Some quite fantastic old school, rocking guitar solos merge with some fine, uplifting symphonies with some equally inspired jams sliding themselves into the mix. At times it's mesmerisingly complex and at others, they simply lay down some heavy simplicity. The juxtaposition is brilliantly worked. Dream Theater fans will, of course, find comfort in new material from Sherinian's masterful keyboard wizardry but if instrumental prog metal tickles your pickle at all then this effort from Relocator really is worth searching out."

  8. Best wishes for the coming year!
  9. Wayyyyy too early for me to get excited about this, but I'll take it! Everybody's still got a solid shot at the pool crown this year, which is cool!
  10. Terrible call on the home run by Cano! That was fan interference all the way. If the Yankees end up winning by 1 run, I think the Rangers are going to have a legitimate gripe tonight.
  11. It's entirely possible that the Texans who were there rooting for the Rangers were also the ones chanting Cowboys Suck!
  12. Happy Birthday!
  13. anyone else share my enthusiasm? If you like that one check out Sky Moves Sideways or the 40 minute Moonloop! I think you'll dig both. No spoken word narrative stuff like Voyage 34 though.
  14. Oh also - SW has three new acoustic/unplugged tracks available for free at Soundcloud - Time Flies, Trains, and I Drive The Hearse! Performed by SW and John Wesley. Here
  15. PT played the Royal Albert Hall last night, and it appears to have been the same setlist as Radio City Music Hall, with the exception that they played "Trains" after "Arriving Somewhere" at the end of the show. I'm hopeful of a live CD recording of one/both of these shows at some point. The shows weren't recorded for DVD.
  16. Happy Birthday!
  17. Got to see our own Soul Stream last night in Austin, in an organ trio alongside Jimmie Vaughan! Mike, it was great to finally meet you! The set we caught was fantastic.
  18. All the best for the coming year, Tom!
  19. It's an opiate for the masses.
  20. If I didn't already have this I'd be all over it! Great price @ less than $5 per disc!
  21. Happy Birthday!
