Just watched Green Day induct GnR. Pretty cool.
Pitty Izzy didn't get up with them :(
Amazing looking back on this band. I read Duff McKagan's autobiography in 2 days in the hols. Amazing. All coming back alive to me. Loving this stuff again.

A reformed Reef are playing at Billboard The Venue on Friday 8th June.
Very funny memories of Jock pole dancing when I last saw Reef :D
Not sure many of this shows are ones I would make a trip for, but if I am already going down for the Footy or something…well then maybe.

And wouldn't you believe it - it is blocked by the education department ;)
Will check out at home. (And moved to the General RPG Stuff Forum).

Repeating here what I have posted on the Minis Site.
Start Azentia at 1-1.30PM?
If you want to be in on the selcting minis arrive at 12PM.
(See the Minis thread for more).
Sound cool? Good.

Was hoping Blair would do this, but we need to set a time to 'pick' the minis…and how much people are going to put in. (for those of us wanting to put in a lot, I suggest we just split the rest of the cost - after others have made their bids - b/w us).
My suggestion would be arrive early on next Saturday and do it over lunch before the Azentia game starts.
Given no one else has suggested anything - I recommend:
12 PM - Pick minis
1-1.30 PM - Start Azentia.
So if you are interested in selecting minis = GET THERE EARLY.

This is mainly for Connors I guess but found it an interesting read myself. Basically its about a guy who introduced RPG's into his classroom (kind of).
Hmmm.
Checked them out. PP seemed a bit boring to me, but maybe I have to be in the right mood for this stuff. Speaking of acoustic stuff, have you checked out Ed Sheeran? (Coincidentally a fane of Damien Rice who PP seems to be covering). Don't mind some of his songs.
The song Elise sings certainly aint my style, but she does a very good job of making Billy Joel listenable. Some potential Salon music from these two.
I liked her Whole Lotta Love better :) Sounds like the Aussie girls Stonefield.

Oh and I would have to say it is up there with Lonesome and Harmonic for me. Given it has been on my fav list for most of a year, I guess it has to be ;)
"Well done is better than well said". Benjamin Franklin
Yes! The quirky keyboards are there and hooked me in imediately - especiallyas my other fav song at the time I first heard this was Eating Me Alive by Alkaline Trio.
Odd that both had quirky keyboards and that I loved them both. I hated the 'quirky' throwback to the 80's some bands tried in the 90's (namely Regurgitator), but I can't explain it. Punk with keys would never have appealed to me (other than the odd Blink 182 song of course), but I love these two songs.
Did you have a look at the live versions - I don't think they have the keyboards?
Anyway, thanks for at least visiting here :)

Ok Blair & I usually start looking at American Idol each year just in case they happen to have anyone interesting and this year was a major bonus with 2 people that stood way out from the rest of the usual vocal gymnasts (ok Elise does vocal gymnastics but it sounds so different I love it).
Anyway here are a couple of what they have done so far:
Phillip Phillips - Volcano (Damien Rice cover)
Elise Testone - Vienna (Billy Joel cover)
Doesn't hurt that Elise is a total babe either [IMO].
Very different with all the electronic stuff. I'm still out on this one a bit, though if I could here an all guitar version I might like it better. Guess I compare everything to Lonesome for these guys cause I loved that song so much when it came out.
Yea I checked it out. I like it but it took me a few listens to get there.
Is a long way ahead of where my roster is, but I'd be interested.
Thanks and cheers Chaddy.
So not using any of the pregens? (A discussion for the SS site really).
"Well done is better than well said". Benjamin Franklin
Hey Paul,
Me and Sal are on top of it, just polishing off our PCs :). I've also read through the SS book a couple times to get get to know the setting.
I can only assume players are on top of things at their end, though I fear that is not the case given the lack of responses here and especially over at the Sundered Skies site!?
I have posted quite a bit over there for little response.
It is cool if you aren't that interested and all, but don't expect the group to waste time on the actual weekend getting you up to speed.
Please don't cite time as an issue either. As a quick run down I am trying to get something together at such a late time on top of: NAPLAN testing (being the sole English teacher from 7-10 becomes very hectic this time of year), heading into Report Writing (before the ConnorsCon), kids and my hockey training and playing, sometimes squash, Lou working when I get home from work, and I have more, but you get the point and no one wants to hear this…I don't either.
Everyone has time - it is what you choose to do with it. If your interest in this is low, or this is a low priority, that is disappointing to me, but that is cool. As I said though, I do NOT want to waste Convention time dealing with stuff that should have been done WELL before.
I am trying to get a 5 session game up based upon an odd adventure for the setting you guys chose in very limited time. I so wish I had started this last year. Anyhow, hoping to hear from some of you soon over at the Sundered Skies site.
