Thanks to you too, Guido
Yes, you were right: I switched to Firefox and got both the paragraph change and typo options. Great ! So now I can start emoting too
My smear, two posts ago, was due to my missing the paragraph thingy ... but it looks like my new friends made their way thru. Thanks
Now I hope that I don't start losing friends by admitting that I really dig
NP Trivium: Shogun
Fabulous album, if ya can take some growl; lotta melody and excitement, and challenging lyrics.
I don't really enjoy their first two albums, but somewhere between Ascendancy and Shogun they got it right

Nicky, just got a point as a hearty welcome from me as well.
Second is that I run a Mac lab. Word of warning, you REALLY have to tweak the settings to get Safari to play nice with the smileys here. You won't even be able to see them with a standard install if you are using that browser. I am beginning to sound like a broken record here but switch to Firefox (www.firefox.com). No need to uninstall Safari but the Smileys will pop right up with Firefox. /Guido [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Nicky007 from Sunday, December 20, 2009 4:38:13 AM)

I wrote that "the rock scene in Denmark is pretty miserable", but we actually have some fine metal groups here - not Priest and Dream Theater class, but promising - like
NP (Now Playing) Anubis Gate: Purification
Actually quite close to Priest in style.
It's just sad that these excellent Danish groups are never played in the media, which is filled with the aforementioned and Idol-crap - fun for kids, but insufferable for us rock veterans.
Edit: OK, I got the trick of using the "Standard version". Now I just have to find the typographic options and smileys on my fiancee's Mac.

Thank you, Kirb. I really appreciate that. I honestly believe that singing is a gift. Not everyone can do it and I understand that. I feel very lucky that I can, although I do not think I am much more than a journeyman. I enjoy it. I have passion for it and I try to make sure it shows when I do it.

The rock scene in Denmark is pretty miserable. In the radio they play hiphop, r'n'b and sentimental stuff like Beatles and Queen - and worst of all: That's what my friends think is rock !
So therefore the Starters Kit (also including nice stuff by Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater, Queensr�che and other great groups).
And I'd think that this lengthy post should give me at least three respect points.

I would also like to welcome you Niki. I think we, or at least I, have been remiss in our responsibilities as "regulars" to make sure that newcomers know they are very welcome here and encouraged to stay and contribute.
While no system is "perfect" or "fool proof", I believe Murray (webmaster) has done what he can to at least slow-up those that would come here strictly to cause trouble. And there are many. Conversely, there are many very good people here. Friends. If there is anything I can encourage you as a newbie to do, it would be to make friends. That is what is most important, in my mind. That is why most of the regulars are here and why we have stayed over the years regardless of the idiots that seek to breakdown what they cannot ever really have. Friends.
You will find that there are some great people here and you may even be lucky enough, some day, to actually meet a few of us..maybe even attend a Priest show together, as so many of us have done these past couple years. Heck, you may even make some Priest music together. We have done that as well!!!!

You need at least 50 Respect Points, and you just need to post, make friends, and stay out of trouble. It's supposed to help hinder any potential troublemakers. Don't worry, man. Before you know it, you'll be able to post anywhere.
And while not the biggest fan of Lost Love, I do enjoy giving all of Nostra a spin before going to bed every once in a while. It's like watching a late-night movie. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Nicky007 from Friday, December 18, 2009 11:51:16 AM)

BWAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that is how it strikes you, I am fine with it! HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I discovered sometime ago that trying to explain the "meaning" of a song is an exercise in futility, not to mention somewhat overbearing. I mean, we all understand that songs mean something different to each listener. And you are right, JJ! There is "Metal" or any kind of music, in all things around us. Songs are written about some very odd subjects and yet, when someone hears it, they interpret it far differently than the writer.
Drive Home can be about anything you want it to be, as long as it touches you in some way. Same with Walk Alone and I Rise. I would never presume to try to define the meaning of the songs for others, even though I wrote them. Everyone interprets them their own way.
And Joe, you are (as always) too kind and so very supportive. Apparently , you are raising some fine children as well.....HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you , my dear!
So it's a song about what you do every day when you finish work? Metal is awesome, you can find metal in even the most mundane of activities.

HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, Brandon. I appreciate all the enthusiasm. No,there is no "other" vocalist. The vocalist on everything you heard is me. The song "Heading Out to the Highway" was recorded on an older, reel to reel system. The song "Drive Home" was done on more modern recording equipment by a different producer. The "band" that did the Priest stuff is Faithful Defenders. We are all (or were all) members of this site that got together a few years ago and recorded a CD.
My new band is not planning any tours. I am FAR too old for that (and of marginal talent at best) !!! HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really do appreciate your excitement and all, though. It is very nice of you. You are more than welcome to listen anytime. If you care to find out more about the Priest project we did, go over to the General Discussion section of this site and look for The DF/MM/MP Project. There you will be able to read our "history", as it were. All you need to know can be found in that Thread!

HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, Brandon. I appreciate all the enthusiasm. No,there is no "other" vocalist. The vocalist on everything you heard is me. The song "Heading Out to the Highway" was recorded on an older, reel to reel system. The song "Drive Home" was done on more modern recording equipment by a different producer. The "band" that did the Priest stuff is Faithful Defenders. We are all (or were all) members of this site that got together a few years ago and recorded a CD.
My new band is not planning any tours. I am FAR too old for that (and of marginal talent at best) !!! HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really do appreciate your excitement and all, though. It is very nice of you. You are more than welcome to listen anytime. If you care to find out more about the Priest project we did, go over to the General Discussion section of this site and look for The DF/MM/MP Project. There you will be able to read our "history", as it were. All you need to know can be found in that Thread!
Again, welcome to the board. Hope you stay and become a regular member!

There was someone on here a bit back that mentioned: The Farmer by Thin Lizzy.
This is a great great song but very difficult to find. If your that person, can you send me an PM so we can discuss a amicable trade of equal value. Thxs.
