More character sets?
In a recent thread of mine, a few simple diacriticals were omitted, like an umlaut over the lowercase letter "A". Does the current forum software allow adding additional character sets? It's a rather minor complaint, but it couldn't hurt.

Worthy RPGs this year?
I've only found Mask of the Betrayer and The Witcher. Mass Effect is boring compared to those two. Any suggestions?

Where do I start with Bruckner?
no. 4 - muti nos. 2, 3, 7, 8 - von karajan wand and celibidache were also great bruckner conductors. hvk excelled at him, though; i dislike his beethoven - besides 'eroica' - but he's my favorite bruckner.

Counterpoint: Bands you love that other people don't get.
she's great. apparently a guy that works at a record store here was drunk after a concert of hers and said he loved her -- she tongue kissed him; he lived to tell the tale.

Bands you don't get that everyone else seems to like
yeah, i'm a fan of fragile and close to the edge.

i have come to the conclusion that anybody that likes captain beefheart has their head firmly planted up Don van Vilet's ass; and i'm sure his farts are more entertaining than Trout Mask Replica.

why praise either when there's such better prog rock out there? such as: Magma Univers Zero Art Bears Van der Graaf Generator King Crimson Gong Henry Cow After Dinner Amon D??l II Popol Vuh Can Frank Zappa Camel Slapp Happy Harvester Tr?d, Gr?s och Stenar + most other krautrock / zeuhl / r.i.o.

Best metal of 2007?
top honors: Portal - Outre Reverend Bizarre - III: So Long Suckers Elend - A World in Their Screams decent, some good ideas: Root - Daemon Viam Invenient Semargl - Manifest Sear Bliss - The Arcane Odyssey The Angelic Process - Weighing Souls With Sand Grayceon - Grayceon flops that are still way better than dream theater: Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - In Glorious Times Deathspell Omega - Fas... Wotanorden - Aryan Culture Preservation Darkthrone - F.O.A.D. (just for the cover, really) still need to hear the new Graveland. iirc, Beherit are reforming. haven't heard the new Immolation enough to judge it. Still need to hear the new Nest, Primordial, M?tiilation, Peste Noire, and Master releases. looking forward to Ildjarn Is Dead coming in the mail. lots of stuff to sift through, considering i'm still recovering from a harddrive crash.

Your recent music purchases
i recently splurged on a few dozen metal releases that i've had pirated for a long time but hesitated on buying -- because i live in a catholic household: they can and will perform an exorcism on me.

Recomend to me something by Stravinsky
get kazuhito yamashita's solo guitar performance of the firebird, too, while you're at it. i could upload it for you if you like.
