You have some good albums there. I'm curious...did you ask for all these or did your family just happen to pick up some classics for you? I'm more of a Sennheiser fan myself, but Audio-Technica is great, too.

Happy listening!

Seriously, cool but disturbing painting man: what's it actually meant to be? Do you know? Or are you like that guy in "Heroes" who got into a trance and then painted, came out of the trance and said "What the **** is that??" :)

Sometimes I don't even remember painting, like when I finished that one, I noticed the next day I had no deoderant left, turns out I had used all of the cans by spraying them on the painting to get that strange glossy white effect you see for the faces and other stuff. lol Yeah I dunno if I am inspired by the devil ^^ He doesn't sound like a sound fella, My dad calls it the "haunted inkwell" anotherwords he believes that all artists and musicians tap into something from the beyond, like god is inhabiting their pen or brush. Kind of a cool conept.

Are your parents religious, in one way or another? Protestant, Catholic, New Age cult?

Typical Irish Catholics with an open mind to their son's inherent strangeness which is kind of touching :P

They just happened to pick up some classics! None of these were requested, as I didn't actually ask for anything! Going to be a solid few days of straight music.

PoorOldPo 12-24-2012 10:31 PM

Mbv. I approve!
