  1. The weird thing is I kind of miss listening to Checkmate.mp3 several years ago wondering what the rest of the song could sound like. Then with the additional ten seconds leaking before the whole of Hard School leaked. Fun.

    Now I'm stuck listening to that shitty phone recording of The General and hoping the whole tune will seep through the cracks to the masses somehow.

    Anybody seen this on Disney? Ryan Reynolds and the bloke off It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia buy a lower league Welsh football club. For real. I’m loving it so far. 

     

    Would be great seeing them reaching the EFL. Been fond of Wrexham ever since seeing the Bootlegger's match day vlogs :lol:

     

     

  3. Despite my ranting and raving about this show over the years it was touching seeing it come to an end of sorts.

    But like GN'R, the wasted potential of TWD is just deflating. I'd love for an animated series to come along sometime, with a clearer vision on the entire story. TWD can be clearly spliced into three arcs, survival (Atlanta, the rise and fall of the prison), rebuilding (Alexandria, the war) and maintaining (The Whisperers and the Commonwealth)

  4. I find a lot of the material in those albums very interesting in terms of musicality, lyricism and the head space of the band. Bad Apples is one of the bands most killer songs musically, and I love Axl’s delivery and lyrics on that track. Certain tunes like Get In The Ring and Shotgun Blues are by no means top tier tracks, but it’s interesting to listen to while imagining the total mental collapse going on inside Axl. 

    Even My World has a charm to it, being a failed prelude to ChiDem of sorts and just being the track to close off the albums.

    That being said, So Fine is the musical equivalent to oatmeal. It’s so terribly boring and inoffensive and leaves me utterly ambivalent after each listen. At least Silkworms is so comically terrible that you’re left with something resembling an impression.

    A few pictures from previous tours:

    The famous Besseggen, where you walk along an edge with the dark blue Bessvatnet to the right and the cyan (because of glacial sediments) Gjendevatnet to the left.

    From the descent down to the cabin Gjendebu, just before perilous and very steep Bukkelægret where we have to descend with the aid of ropes and wires:

    From the cross through Svartdalen. Tall peaks and glaciers surround us.

    Down beautiful Fleskedalen towards Vetti.

    The Vetti water fall, 273 meter free fall.

    This year's hike again, entering the pass between Supphelledalen and Snauedalen, after a streneous climb. The ice patch would cause some problems since we didn't bring crampons.

    Just saw this! I was in Memurubu about a month or so back, supposed to walk through Besseggen. I was hindered due to a positive covid test, but a bunch of my friends walked through there.

    Really irritated about that still, since it was one of the few truly windstill days of the year over there, also as my friends took several aweinspiring pictures from those beautiful heights.
