The 02 that they played on recent tours seems too small

Best venue I've been at for a big gig. No matter where you are on the floor you're close to the stage. GnR fans found it useful for throwing things at the band..
But yea I think sp1at discounted it as an option earlier. Outdoor/stadium gigs this time round.

#1182 Re: Guns N' Roses » Nightrain Official Site » 559 weeks ago

Maybe it has nothing to do with Ireland tho...??

Been at the previous RDS gig. Was miles from the stage & sound was rubbish, typical outdoor stuff. Been at a gig in the Aviva when it was still Lansdowne road. Was miles from the stage & terrible venue, just a mass of concrete.
Typically cheerful outlook there.

Be great if there was a gig up here tho. Springsteen did the Kings Hall a couple of years ago, 30,000 or so.. Think RDS/Aviva prob hold a few more.. Depends on who is promoting the gig I guess. If there is one of course..

Boss.
Means start of euro tour/dates I imagine.


The RDS again or Aviva/Lansdowne Road?

i for one totally embrace the cloud & digital distribution.
the amount of crap i have acquired over the years totally bums me out. rooms & roofspaces (attics is what theyre called across the pond) just full of stuff. i am a hoarder & p disorganised. so many towers of cd's/dvd's/blu-rays it's preposterous.

the only thing i really miss from physical copies is boxart & specifically manuals for videogames. but they were a dying art long before the advent of the cloud/digital distribution.
obv there's only factors such as resale value, expense, bandwidth n shit.. but yea, i prefer to have my head in the cloud most definitely. it's the only place to be. better than tip-toeing thru perilious paths of stacks of stuff that could topple any moment.

I'd rather watch Event Horizon than Once Upon a Time in America! 

Atari's been on a bit of a Netflix kick lately?? The selection over here in the UK is so fucking shit!

Bit harsh on Sam Neil too I thought!

i'll never get rid of my entity. formed an emotional attachment to it! it was my first & will be my last..

i liked all of turismo/zentorno/t20 but do think the osiris has them beat.

pre-loading the division beta. doesn't open until friday so might get a chance to give it a blast over the weekend.

I am utterly bemused & perplexed by mrID's hardon for 4tus & his beliefs in his songwriting ability, & acceptance of hearsay as fact but that's a slightly different matter.
I can only figure we're standing at opposite ends of the spectrum on this subject. I find his posts itt bizarre & confusing.
I'd venture to say it's because he's got his head lodged up his ass, or Axl's ass, or fortus' ass or his insider pals asses, but I don't want to be seen insulting the guy. But really I see no objective explanation for excitement over Richard fortus being in the band. He's a good professional but for christ sake what has he ever done to inspire such fandom?? I don't get it.. I'm not even close to getting it. Is it all because of this idiotic & misguided notion that he's more reliable than Izzy?! I don't know.. I just don't know.. What is the big deal with 4tus?!

#1188 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Video Game Console Thread » 560 weeks ago

Picked up the Osiris a few weeks ago & really loved it. Bought it instead of a yacht..
Seemed a bit weightier, meatier than the rest, preferred the handling on it to anything outside of the Entity (still my everyday, driving around car wink ), probably prefer it actually for racing. Seems to have a lot less oversteer, but I mean who really knows I could just be imagining these things.

I think I sold some on the back of it, maybe my zentorno or turismo or both to offset the upgrading costs.. I can't remember to be honest. Maybe it was the t20 I sold.. Doubt it tho.. Next time I'm online at the same time I'll let you run riot with my supercar garage(!) you can take them all for a test drive see what you like.. Don't have an adder anymore tho. It was the first to be sold & never went back to it.

One wee tip - tho they might not look the best, stuff like spoilers & offroad tires make a big difference to performance if you're going to be racing. The off road tires might sound strange but they allow you to ride curbs easily - used to be couldn't get up on some curbs with likes of turismo being so low to the ground. Was funny looking just crashing into footpaths & coming to a halt or being flipped into the air.
In terms of spoilers - the cheapest spoiler will have the exact same impact as the most expensive, or at least used to, they may have rebalanced that stuff. Not really essential but it does make a difference.

#1189 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Video Game Console Thread » 560 weeks ago

Not been up to speed this past week or so but does The Division beta launch today? And if so anyone playing it, or played it earlier??
And how long is it running for?
Would love to get a run at it but time lately just hasn't been on my side & I can't stay up til 2/3am anymore sad I'll prob have to tho if I want to try it before beta closes..

#1190 Re: The Sunset Strip » The X-FILES Thread » 560 weeks ago

Bit too cutesy for my liking. Soundtrack, Tom waits excepted, really grated & yea that shot at the end didn't look great.

Also was dismayed at the portrayal of Muslims. Oh well..

I agree w/bro in that I don't think it's that far removed from the show it was - it's just when it does step out of character it's especially jarring, & disappointing given the relative underwhelming nature of the episode(s). It's like they're at one time both trying to be restrained but also try new things instead of just pumping out the winning formula for 6 gold episodes.

Still a billion times better than the walking dead tho.
