    Yeah, okay then. I’ll scan the boxset and add it in, but I only have the green CD I’m afraid…

    i don’t think she sounds under the influence or anything. she sounds quite boring though.

    spins so fast
    gravity
    heavy pills
    sinkholes
    shrinking volumes
    collapsing inside
    vacuum up the remains
    suck me in
    pull me close
    obliterate me
    extinguish my structure
    annihilated
    violated
    disappear
    fucking crush me with love

    Zeitgeist is growing on me. Still only the first half of the album, and then Zeitgeist, Death from Above, Stellar, and Ma Belle.

    It’s been two years, and I still put this album on. More so than any other. Maybe the other ones are worn down on me, but what the fuck? I hated this album when it dropped. I guess this is why I always trust in BC.

    I also watched IAGW again and for the life of me don’t understand Gossamer. It’s just too long and has no real direction. Superchrist is somewhat boring because the riff never fucking changes, but I still like the song.

    So all in all, looking forward to some new shit. And SOON.[/quote:14d8l4qz]

    i disagree with the statement about gossamer. not really disagree, but i definately think it has a direction. the version i listen to is from the 7/30 show. its at the end of the residency,so i know the song was probably as polished up as it was ever gonna get, as far as structure goes. i know like every note of that performance. ive listened to it so many times. the best way to describe the song is to look at it as if it were a wave, with the highs and lows. you can hear them go from structured part, to jam, to ending the jam right where they want to be, to structured part, to extended structured part, to solo, to jam, to structured part. thats not the exatly the way the song goes. i was just trying to make my point. its a journey. but if you look at the point or direction of a song to be a opening riff, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus, outro (your basic song) then, yeah, it has no direction. i was listening to it earlier this week and in my head, i was trying to describe it and i came to the conclusion that gossamer is like a piece of artwork. it cant be explained. only interpreted.[/quote:14d8l4qz]

    I’ll have to give it more listens. Maybe it will grow on me as well.

    I also love the solo in Stellar against the synthesizer backdrop. It reminds me of the solo in Entangled (Genesis), although the solo there is synth. I don’t know, I don’t remember BC soloing over synth before like this, but I could be misplacing shit in my head again.

    i’ve always thought around $1,000 to $1,500, but that’s just me. so i figured i’d sweeten the deal a little, but this guy obviously wants a lot more for it. what can you do…just wait another 10 fucking years i guess.

    offer declined!

    i’m kinda thankful, as i didn’t really have the money anyway. :roll: but, it was a generous offer, so i wonder how much this will really fetch. i suppose with these behind the scenes offers, we may never know for sure.

    these lonely guns
    stand at attention
    here with the moon
    bringing forth tension

    these lonely guns
    the battlefield cries
    surrounded by many
    alone with the lies

    these lonely guns
    harboring only death
    give to me the blood
    bring to me the dead

    these lonely guns
    can you hear them call
    across the grassy plains
    a call to all

    these lonely guns
    go kaboom

    these lonely guns
    can kill
