I was sitting in a bus today and one guy there spent his entire trip telling everyone else to fuck off and calling them idiots ::) Alcohol can do wonders, it seems.

My first ever oral argument in front of a panel of "judges" tomorrow. Let the shitting of bricks begin!

Watching the Luna Park show in between watching hockey.  I'm at the drum solo section.  I am very impressed with Mangini with that one.  Very captivating.

I love oral arguments!

"Suck it!"

"No please, stop."

"Suck it. You'll like it."

"Mmmpprhhgg"

"See!"

Good God, man. :lol It's for this law school "Legal Practice" course I'm taking. It's pass/fail, but I've never been a great public speaker so I'm just nervous as balls. Especially because I just haven't had the time to practice.

I would suck at oral arguments.  No pun intended.  I could never speak in front of people without being nervous as fuck.

Not only that, but they get to ask me hard questions. This is really gonna suck. :lol

Maybe do a couple of shots of JW before getting up there?   I probably would. 

Super Dude

Oh no no, those are for after I get ripped to shreds. (I actually do have plans with my "co-counsel" to go straight from there to happy hour.)

Well good luck with the whole situation.  Let us know how it goes.

Someone must start a new thread now that the BR is out.

I was totally disapointed by this live show.
The crowd is inexistant, Mangini's lack of punch is just DRAMATIC...Technically he's awesome, but he's definitely NOT the showman that Portnoy was on stage!!

Compare the 2 live versions of "The root of all evil" :  the "Score" dvd version and the "Luna Park" one.
The difference, in terms of "punch" and power, is SO HUGE!!
And it's the same for almost every songs of the Luna Park set!! :tdwn

"Live Scenes...", "Score" and mostly "Live at Budokan" are BY FAR SO MUCH BETTER than "Luna Park"!!

Notice that the French fans are,as I am, really dispaointed by this release...
And I even mention of the "bonus section", what a joke!! :facepalm:

wasteland

Well, since you speak for the French fans, I can without hesitation or doubt whatsoever say on behalf of the Italian Dream Theater fandom that this DVD is the best the band has ever put out  :metal

About as I expected, so not bad, not great. I didn't get overly nervous, but my argument went off the rails a bit when the Chief Justice asked me a text question (a 'may/shall' distinction; Bosk will know what I'm talking about).

You get graded on this I assume?

Only five points, but I'm just inherently bad at public speaking so this entire week was stressful for me.

Whatever calms the nerves.    ;)

Must say I´m very glad I eventually went and got the Deluxe version. Time to eat some crow again. Great performance alround.
Would have liked to have the audience more prominent in the mix but hell....awesome sound and picture quality.

stupid windows media player randomizer played Hell's Kitchen immediately after Lines in the Sand

God hates me clearly
if I'm going to listen to those two together they better damn well be in the right order.
turns out signatures are fundamentally broken now so here's my passive-aggressive signature about signatures instead

Good luck, what sort of stuff are you studying.

Going stir-crazy with studying.
Tell me about it... I have an exam on Tuesday and I need to work on a couple of papers, but I have a cold. I'm also 100% sure I'll have to take the test I had on Monday again, and there's a load of exams coming up in early December.
