PGP: Saluting Right Back at Bono

[Thora]

I'm just annoyed at EVERYONE bandwagoning. it was NOT played acoustically damnit, just an intro with a guitar does not mean it's played acoustically. As that would require an ACOUSTIC guitar.

I'm really pedantic at times. Can someone slap me?

It sounded great btw.

SLAP!

Don't stress about it - it's really not that big of a deal. Those setlist parties move fast, and some people probably aren't used to threads that actually move at that speed, so they might not be totally up to speed, and just jumping in whenever.


Damn, I wish there had been audio for the last 2 songs.

 

[corianderstem]

I think a lot of that is due to the speed the thread moves, and people who don't try and read everything they've missed because it goes so fast.

I think a lot of the frustration in the threads come from that, at least somewhat.

D'oh! Thora beat me to it. Great minds think alike.

 

[Thora]

Yes, excellent minds!

I remember the first time I joined in on a fast moving thread, I was so overwhelmed. That was back in the early days of the PGP. I didn't know if I should just jump right in or what.

Greasy sandwich is made, coffee is brewed. Ahhh, heaven!

We think he is pulling out Zooey's phone number!

We heard IWF and NLOTH earlier from that link.

 

[ryancoke71]

There is a video in there and you go to 27 minutes on it....

 

[corianderstem]

And that video has NLOTH as well, at about 10:30.

Yay, glad you liked it!

I'm a combusting mess over here too.

I heard that Bad was soundchecked earlier today, according to Twitter. If that gets played tonight?! I will die. Holy crap.

 

[Galeongirl]

I cannot believe the bitching already started. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with people.

 

[Galeongirl]

I'm trying to extract NLOTH from the video, but it's not working. Damnit. I SHALL get it for you Cori!

 

[Thora]

I didn't take the comment you quoted over there to be bitching. It sounded like he was impressed. But maybe I'm reading it wrong...

 

[corianderstem]

GG, I'm pretty sure catlhere's comment was a positive thing!

 

[zuropa_fit]

Dang. I hope Anaheim two is anything like this.

 

[zuropa_fit]

Jem, I'm going to Target in a bit. If I see two posters, I'll get one for ya!

 

[ryancoke71]

Waiting for Bad....oh please play it....
