AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
WTF they are one of the best bands to see live, period. Everyone I know who has seen them (including myself) has said it was on the best shows they've seen.
Not to bring this thread down but I'll explain. It was a nice sounding line up. It was Fear Factory, Monster Magnet and Rob Zombie (headlining the tour). Fear Factory had the crowd all pumped up and moving. M.M came out and the crowd practically fell asleep. Even the mosh pits died down and people had the look of total boredom. Rob Zombie came out and the crowd came alive once again. IT could have been a bad day for M.M but they did not do any good that night.

I'm forgetting tons, and I don't even like half the bands I listed. Oh well, you could also add almost every band based in Salt Lake City three times.
Saw Steve Vai last night at the Fillmore in SF.
And it rocked.
Eric Sardina opened, and kicked everybody in the nads.
Yes, he too...well, rocked.
