So fucking huge dude. I was in awe.

That's what SHE said.


Oh
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

We took pro pictures for a present for our dad's 70th birthday.

Got to play the grand piano in church again today.  I'm pretty sure that this is the first time Scott Joplin has featured in a service at my church.  At least this is the first time I've done it, and I don't think anyone else would.

But man, I love playing that piano.  Beautiful instrument.

Thought it was a screenshot and the paintings were weird desktop icons at first.

Nice pic, those pianos are cool.

I was talking to the music director before the service, and she said to go ahead and open up the piano, so I wouldn't have to go up and deal with that when it came to that part of the service.  I figured it would be okay to open the the lid as well, just on the short peg.  Gotta let that baby sing!

Chilling out maxing outside by the pool, when a couple of guys who were up to no good starting making trouble in the neighborhood.
I ignored them and kept smoking my cigar and sipping The Macallan

With all the quarters he's saved at the McDonald's drive thru in the last couple of years, I'd imagine he had enough to hire it out.

Had dinner with the guys in the band and two other friends this saturday. Sam has a polaroid carema so we took some photos. Since these images already look kinda old when they're brand new I almost feel nostalgic about them even though it only happened two days ago.

A few shots from The TAC Summer Vacation.

We flew in and out of Denver. Saw a game. Drove through Nebraska and visited Carhenge, on the way to Rapid City SD. Saw Mount Rushmore, and Devil's Tower in Wyoming. Went to Yellowstone and The Grand Teton National Parks. It is amazing country out there!

Coors Field


Carhenge, in Nebraska


Mt. Rushmore


Devil's Tower, in Wyoming


Old Faithful, in Yellowstone


On the Snake River, the Grand Teton is over my right shoulder
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Thanks. My oldest son found it online and that's all he talked about. Luckily it was literally on our route so it was easy to jump off the highway. It was pretty cool. There was a huge thunderstorm and we literally drove through some of the hardest and darkest rain I have ever seen. Basically praying we wouldn't be scooped up by a tornado.
