I'll be buying a mic stand so I can sing/guitar and sing/drum at the same time. But how will I work the cowbell in?

I'm pretty excited about this, but $50 seems a bit steep. Am I crazy or did they sometime in the past say it'd only be $40 since it was an expansion? Plus, I haven't heard anything about bonus tracks (unlockable, smaller bands) - and I like having those. Some end up being really good (and...

I'm ashamed to admit...I don't know that album (or much Who at all, really!). Here are the songs they've announced so far: The Who - "Won't Get Fooled Again" Mountain - "Mississippi Queen"* David Bowie - "Suffragette City" Black Sabbath - "Paranoid"* Blue Oyster Cult - "Don't Fear the...

I hope so - just ordered thru DDD after reading a lot of "love it or hate it" comments. Here's hoping I fall under 'love it'.

This was my favorite film of 2004 (with Nobody Knows a close second) and is perhaps the biggest reason why I'd like Universal to go neutral. I envy those with the ability to watch it in HD - it's good to hear that the disc has been done right.

That's right. Porcupine Tree, Rush, Planet X, Dream Theater, and Megadeth (am I missing anyone?) all right after one another. Then there's the Tool show May 16 (hooray for my first Tool show), and DT is actually making it to Dallas this time. The Rush show was just too expensive. Anyone else...

I dig the instrumentals, although the brevity of Malignant Narcissism is a bit disappointing (2:16). After a very quick run-through, my favorite lyrics are from The Larger Bowl. And for anyone who's wondering what a pantoum is (see The Larger Bowl), it's where the 2nd and 4th lines are...

I got the same email, but I assumed that the "sale" was just the coupons in the email. Hopefully someone else knows for sure.

Who's there been besides Moore, Sherinian, and Rudess? Am I not as big a fan as I thought?

I've played the 360 demo a couple times, and the guitar feels a little different. I'd be interested in updated versions of the GH1 songs (with easier hammer-ons and co-op), but there's no way I'm paying what they're (currently) asking for all of them. Aaron, how are you doing with the PS2...

After one listen, I'd say I pretty much like the new song. It is a little heavier than their more recent stuff, especially Neil's drumming. The bass line generally isn't terribly complex, but it does have a really good, smooth sound to it. The guitar work seems like pretty typical recent Alex...

Half Nelson is now listed at $17.99 at Amazon. I'm considering- Half Nelson The Departed Marie Antoinette The U.S. vs. John Lennon

I don't think I can recommend any of the Genesis titles for anyone with a PS2. There's a "Sega Genesis Collection" disc that goes for $20 (or less) which includes Sonic 1 and 2, Ecco the Dolphin (and its Genesis sequels), Comix Zone, Ristar, Gain Ground, Bonanza Bros., Altered Beast, Columns...

Mariokart 64 is supposed to be next Monday's game. (I don't know if there are supposed to be any others along with it.)

Ah, well. I don't think I can justify picking up the 360 version. On a happy note, the new EGM states that GH2: 1980s Edition will be released for the PS2 in "Spring 2007" (which might translate into "summer"; I'm not sure if spring really means spring). I haven't found any info on included...
