Last weekend I've had the pleasure of seeing Ghost[^] (Ghost B.C. in America) perform live on stage
They've been a bit of a hype in the last few years, but they're an awesome band with great songs who play well live, know how to create an awesome atmosphere, and Papa Emeritus III is surprisingly funny for a corpse in popes clothes.
If you like 70's infused rock and heavy metal you should probably give them a listen[^]

Based soley on the hype, on an impulse I bought their first record (Opus Eponymous), and just couldn't get into it (maybe a bit too mid-tempo?), maybe their last couple records are different? But their image would make them fun to see live.

Other great songs: Ghuleh/Zombie Queen, From The Pinnacle To The Pit, Year Zero, and Con Clavi Con Dio
And if you want a "heavy m*********** about an evil m***********" (Papa Emeritus' words) listen to Mummy Dust

I hope I get to see them, they probably won't make it to Slovenia any time soon.
But yeah they preform some cheerful sounding blasphemy and I like it.

Ditto. Was conveniently located a few meters from the train-station. Lots of food there too

Nice! We could've met.
Are you also going to Massive Attack in HMH in February by any chance?

You're in Brabant? I was at the Efteling today, we could've met!
Ghost is coming to the Netherlands again in March although I wasn't really planning on seeing them again

planning on seeing them again Can't go to Ghost without the collegue who dragged me there, but there's enough other options. Do remind me next year that we should meet, maybe we can get some more folk from here in the same place

My work commute is five to ten minutes and it can already piss me off (that's why I take the bike, bikes I can handle )

I did let of some steam, Utrecht is a great place to do so
The coworker is a real fan of the group; I simply enjoy their music from time to time. Would feel a bit unfair to go again without the rest.

There was me thinking you meant the musical.

Nah, that would be a waste of talent!

There's two kind of people in the world.
Those that click the like/dislike button.
Those that do something worthy of clicking the like/dislike button.
Reputation is built as the result of being a doer, not as a result of whether I like or dislike what you do.

Don't do social media, it really is that simple. If you do, then don't come crying to me because someone doesn't like you, and you got your feelings hurt.

Quote: The operator of the Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Sepang, Malaysia is looking for the owner of three Boeing 747-200F that have been left on its tarmac. The airport had put an advertisement in a local newspaper after failing to trace the owner of the three commercial planes.

Why do I feel that we haven't heard the last of these planes. If you think about it, it really shouldn't be news, but it is.

Where did I put my planes?
