Tell the world I'm sorry

Please accept my apologies if posts are occasionally formatted in a super rubbish way. Not super super rubbish, just a bit on the lame side: huge gaps between lines, no gaps between lines, pictures all wonky, video embedding up the creek...

At work I only have ye olde internette and I have come to the conclusion that Blogger, and the majority of the world wide web, doesn't work with IE6.

I just wanted to make it clear that my workplace sucks and is retarded - it's not me. I am amazing. Being so amazing, I shall endeavour to post mainly from home. However, being SO AMAZING means I have a hectic social schedule. So you might just have to put up with it.

Thank you. We shall now return to your regular service.

BORN OF OSIRIS, ALL SHALL PERISH announce co-headlining tour...



M: BORN OF OSIRIS, ALL SHALL PERISH announce co-headlining tour with AFTER THE BURIAL, CALIBAN, SUFFOKATE - all shall perish AND after the burial? doesn't bode well for their tour mates..... ;D


J: all shall perish were that band on the christmas carnage tour where the other band died?
i bet they suck, but in terms of history, it's as awesome as dead being on that mayhem bootleg sleeve.... dead


M: yes, yes they are :) yeah they're prolly a shitty band, i never bothered to listen to them, just enjoyed the irony of their name, the tour name and the other band people dying :D i'm not sure how many people see the funny side of that :)))


J: like dimebag dying you mean :)


M: well i don't think there's much funny about it, it's mainly annoying, tiresome and predictable. they didn't know him, he wasn't THAT good, and he was in a shit band when he died. just like princess diana. none of them knew her, she wasn't THAT great and she wasn't even a fucking princess when she died. dimebag is the princess diana of metal. i think i said that last week.

but it is funny to make fun of all the people who think he's some kind of jesus


J: and as with both, it's gonna get milked for years to come


M: yes :((( years and fucking years :( like we've said before, there's a load of deaths to come yet that are gonna be even worse. especially if they get murdered D: we need to set up some kind of protection agency so people like ozzy can just die when their time is up, rather than having crazy people kill them and explode the merchanising world. maybe it was secretly the merchandise people that payed that dude to kill dimebag because they knew they were going to get 20 years worth of t-shirt sales out of it ;)


J: even if they do die in their own time, it's still gonna get milked.... :(


that's a cool theory tho :) although i only ever think of joel grind when merch guys are mentioned :)


M: ahh joel grind :) you lovely, wonderful, tubby little man *heart heart heart*


J: who tours with the worst bands....


M: hey :O although its true :(


J: They need to headline... Have they ever?


M: don't think so? i think he's done a few local gigs like that, but nothing ever much :((


J: Nothing international. He could easily headline the underworld


M: agreed.

PLAN: we work out when mr grind is free.
call up the underworld, pretend to be "his people" and book him in.
call "his people" and say we're the underworld and we want them to play.
cobble together some support bands in the same way.
et voila!

(can we somehow work in to this plan that i marry him?) :D


J: I thought you said you'd never get married? :P


M: i'd make an exception in the name of thrash, to marry joel grind ;D


J: You're what's known as a groupie :P


M: i've never done any of that groupie stuff :((( i'm worse than a groupie, i'm a wannabe groupie!!! oh joel grind, forgive me, but i think you're really really cool :)



MASTODON, DETHKLOK To Team Up For North American Tour

J: I really hate that dethklok :(

M: me too :( they suck. well, i still don't KNOW that for certain, but i'm pretty sure they do

J: Have you not heard them? I feel like killing someone when they're on

M: never heard them, never seen the cartoon, have only read their wiki page haha. i've just been assuming i'll hate it. P told me i have to watch one of the episodes before i see him next so i can give a balanced opinion on it...
