From what I can tell looking at the pictures, it looks like Jim had ONE HELL OF A TIME last night at the last listen party!!  I really wish we could have made it yesterday to help you celebrate..... but at least we got everything squared away with my mom. Congrats again Jackylone!!!! The picture titled "Nostradamus is HAMMERED!" is my FAVORITE!! |

Good point spa,very true. Hey Ron,raise one for me too since I'm a former drinker! Jackylone made a great point to me the other day,as he told me he also listens to MANY other cds and bands "EACH DAY" along with Nostradamus so for him to have this streak going or for him to have the streak that he had is a statement that he is making personally for "himself" and it says "I love Judas Priest!" !! lol! How can any of us bad mouth this guy for that? No none of us would listen to an album each day but for him to do this is not so much "an acomplishment"(as jimmy james said it wasn't)but a dedication of musical passion and for that I give him 2 thumbs up.

Yeah Jackylone that makes sense if you also listen to mass other cds and bands too,if you only listened to Nostradamus every day and nothing else,that would be challenging not just Nostradamus but ANY cd would.

| I have to say,it utterly amazes me that Jackylone doesn't get "sick" of Nostradamus. If I listened to Painkiller every day for 500 days straight I would be "SICK" of it!! But this goes to show how different each and everyone of us really are. I have about 300 cds all original with case and booklets ect. that cover about 75 different bands,and I'm always grabbing something different each day so I don't listen to the same band or cd every day unless I'm on a certain kick where I do listen to a cd maybe 2 days cause I'm into it at that time,but for the most part I try and spread it out so I don't grow tired of it. Thats why I DO NOT listen to Led Zeppelin anymore because everywhere I go I hear "Zeppelin".At a gas station,on tv at home,in a clothing store,someone's car,everywhere I go I am brain washed with "Zeppelin" and I hate it!! lol! I do know that they are a great band but I am sick to death of them. I could go the rest of my life without hearing another Zeppelin song and I would be fine with that. |

Oh man, I couldn't agree more. While some called Jim a "loon" for having done so, I think that the unexpected benefits (radio + print + SPEAKING WITH THE BAND!!) do certainly deserve MAJOR KUDOS!! Good going, Jim (but next time mention JP.COM HAAAA!!!).

OK Jim, here's the way I see it...:
An "achievement" is defined as a result gained by effort. With that in mind, clearly you have met the standard for an achievement. The quality of which I suppose one could debate but I would ask, WHY? I mean, honestly! The real bottom line here is that the end certainly justifies the means, right? It makes NO difference to me what you did or what , if any, ulterior motives you may have had! YOU got to meet the Band! YOU got some noteriety! YOU reaped the benefits of an idea forged within your own mind and put into motion. As far as I am concerned, it is an achievement! I would LOVE to have come up with it myself and received those rewards!!! HA!!!!!!!!!!!
If one cares to debate why you did it I suppose they could but, as far as I am concerned, it was a brilliant piece of work on your part. I am not really interested in why you did it...YOU met the Band!!! Well done!

Dude, don't be so negative. An achievement is a personal thing, and Jackylone has every right to be happy if he feels (which I am sure he does) he has achieved something - what may be an achievement for one person won't be so for another, but that doesn't give anyone the right to knock it back. I give props to Jackylone
