Tremors is great, but nothing beats Tremors 3: Back to Perfection.

Re: Your Favourite Alter Bridge Memory

Nothing amazing, but back when Blackbird was about to be released, I remember previews of Before Tomorrow Comes, Rise Today, and Ties That Bind being released through the Universal website. I remember listening to them over and over. That album has a lot of nostalgic value to me, being that I was 1...

Re: Slash ft. Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators Live

Yes! Finally!! But it's played too fast. Part of what makes that song great is the slower tempo. Yeah that is a shame. They usually don't have tempo problems so I'm guessing it's just because they're not used to playing it. I wish that video would continue. Heroes was one of my favorite songs in AC.

Re: Video game music

Anyone familiar with <i>The Dark Side of Phobos</i>? Some folks took the music from the original <i>Doom</i> game and remixed it as fully modern-sounding songs.

Re: TABN Site Renewal Fundraiser and $50 Giveaway

Thanks. Is there anything quirky for the PayPal transaction, like a category to pick? I remember some fundraiser to which I donated having issues about tax being charged if you didn't enter it correctly. Not that I know of. It doesn't look like anyone else has been charged a fee so far. However if ...

This story seems a bit far-fetched to me I must have forgotten to mention the pirate throwing pineapples at Flip. What kind of mother condones skipping school.

You guys get very cagy at criticisms instead of lisening to them. Especially the recurring ones. We're a community so we should try to just be right with eachother. Not cagey; just wanted to explain my thoughts behind the format. I know you can't please everyone. It can be frustrating given the num...

Re: Your Favourite Alter Bridge Memory

My favorite AB moment would probably be the 2007 Camden show. That or the rush of euphoria I felt the first times I heard "Come to Life" (both the first live version from Ft. Walton Beach, and the album version), and just the general excitement that led up to the release of Blackbird. Thos...

According to the Wayback Machine at archive.org, the original boards (active until mid-2005) were located at ezboard.com, which looks like it has since been migrated to yuku. Link here: http://alterbridge.yuku.com/ Tracy - maybe you'll find your answer there?

Re: TABN Site Renewal Fundraiser and $50 Giveaway

Believe it or not, this kind of fundraising arrangement is actually pretty common. When I was in high school, I remember a lot of sports teams and other clubs would conduct "50-50 raffles", where people would buy raffle tickets, and ultimately one winner would receive 50% of the funds coll...

Re: Tremonti on Rockline September 17

They didn't really have one, especially since they only played through each song once while rehearsing for this tour. They said pretty much all of the songs had tough parts. I haven't listened to it back since the replay isn't up on the Rockline website yet, but it was pretty awkward. There was a bi...

Re: TABN Site Renewal Fundraiser and $50 Giveaway

The bill is $215. Good question.

If we can only raise $220 for example, we'll still give away the extra $5. If we raise $300, we'll still only give away $50, and keep the extra $35 for additional months of hosting or shipping on future giveaways, something like that.

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers - Track 15

I think one of the other great things about NWTL is that the band only played it a couple times. That gives a certain rarity, but it also means that the band never figured out how to "cheat" any of the parts. With all of the songs that regularly appear in their setlists, I think it would b...

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers - Track 15

NWTL, easy. Great verse, great choruses, great solo, and it's just so creepy. It shouldn't be a b-side, whereas Zero definitely should.

I went to this terrible school September 2007-June 2011 I got bullied, beaten every day, death threats, teachers hit me and they also called me names. So I felt like my life didn't have a point, I became very depressed and wanted to commit suicide. The years just got worse and worse. My first suici...
