Number of the Breast

Last night was absolutely amazing. Not that I expected any different mind. After missing Lauren Harris , Trivium were pretty awesome, if at times trying too hard to win the crowd over. They didn't seem to realise that a large portion of the crowd were 50/50 on them - either the stubborn Maiden fans that hate any support band, or emos that came mainly to see Trivium. Of course there were several thousand, such as myself, that were there to see Maiden and Trivium came as an added bonus. The majority of people are in the same boat as Nerf, where they didn't like the idea of playing the entire album. I can understand that, but there were people who went too far and said they were shite because they played the whole album. I personally loved the show, but I'll admit I probably enjoyed it more because I knew they were playing the whole album in advance. But yeah, awesomeness incarnate. A friend of mine agreed, and he hadn't even heard A Matter of Life and Death before the show. Also, Bruce said the same thing about turning a field into a shithole in 6 months, it sounds more like a Maiden festival tour rather than just playing Download. Which rules, because I'm not in the greatest position to go to Download just now, with T In The Park already booked for the summer. Now, if only they played Balloch Park and I'd only have to walk 10 minutes to the gig...

IronMaiden.com says Lauren's doing the entire European tour. I don't get why people are complaining about Trivium's change of style, which in my opinion makes them even better, and also why you're complaining about Maiden playing the entire "A Matter of Life and Death" album. You bought tickets for that tour, you should expect to see that album dominate the setlist, and I've known they were playing this set for months, so I'm really psyched for it. I've seen them twice before, on the Dance of Death tour and on the Early Days tour, so I'm happy to be seeing something new. But you say it was amazing anyway? Of course it was, it's Iron fucking Maiden. The Glasgow show's tonight, and I'm looking forward to it like a motherfucker. The date seems to have flown in over the last few weeks, and that's not really a bad thing. Less than 9 hours, I'm only bound to get more pumped for this. Mark it in your diaries, for the first time since I've been a member of the Battleground, Maiden sees Maiden

I see Maiden and Priest have been mentioned already, but I'll second them. I'll throw out Dio, the Scorpions, Alice Cooper and Dokken.

If we're bringing Anthrax and Slayer into things: Metallica > Anthrax > Slayer > Megadeth ...and Iron Maiden > *

I loved the Director's Cut of Daredevil. Never seen the theatrical cut and have no desire to, because I've seen what I feel is the definitive version. It changed legacies a little, but what superhero movies don't? I thoroughly enjoyed it. I really enojyed The Punisher as well, and Fantastic Four was OK.

I thought it was great right from the start - even crazier than usual, and I settled into just what we've come to expect from the show. It hasn't missed a beat at all.

We all miss Teachers. Just wanna second Angel and Firefly.

Ashura was supposedly in Sonic 2 and Hidden Palace was the name of the zone in the Sonic 2 Beta, according to Wiki. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_Palace_Zone

That one always got me, I wondered what the fuck level that music was for, because I thought it was awesome. Now I of course know that it was supposed to the Hidden Palace Zone, but back before I had the internet and couldn't go online to find cheats, I wondered what it was all about. Also relating to Sonic, Ashura. Can anyone confirm or deny that one either way?

IT WAS ME AUSTIN! IT WAS ME ALL ALONG!

Glasgow SECC, December 15th. Can't fecking wait. It'll be my 3rd time seeing them.

American Dad, w00t.

Fucking hell, what an idiot. Hardcore for sure, but the guy must be thick as shit to have actually done that.

Much love for Teachers and Red Dwarf, shame Earl didn't make the list, but that should bode well for the quality of the rest of the list.

Right, I've not read through this thread, but I'm considering sticking this on my Christmas list, a question for anyone who can answer it though. I loved X-Men Legends, but didn't really like X-Men Legends II. I'm not really too sure what it was that I disliked about it, I think it was a combination of it being too easy, having all the characters there from the start and not getting to unlock them by playing on, and too much emphasis being put on finding small, out of the way items that have more importance later (like getting to unlock Iron Man, who I wanted to play as). Can anyone give me a brief rundown of the similarities to the two games? Judging by the IGN review, it has more elements of XML than XML2.

1. Firefly 2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer 3. Angel It should be noted that I couldn't seperate these three myself, and used a randomiser to do it for me 4. Scrubs 5. That 70s Show 6. Lost 7. Garth Marenghi's Darkplace 8. Futurama 9. American Dad 10. Coupling (UK)

I came pretty close to it. For anyone who can't be arsed watching the entire trailer (although I suggest you do):

Ha! #4, suck on that Pope lovers! Eh, decent list, bit of an anti-climatic finish, but I ain't one to complain.
