That first one of Mark giving the thumbs up could get a lot of use around here.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

Are there emojis out there of Mark and Myles' many guitar/concert faces and stuff? I think the old old board used to have emojis of them but I'm surprised we never kept that going. :/

More AB-related GIFs sounds like a great idea!

I don't know how to GIF properly without using websites :S
This may not be the proper way either but it worked pretty well. It involves the help of a website so disregard if you still want to avoid that. All I did was place the desired section of video in a program such as Movie Maker, then took a screenshot every 0.05 seconds or so (depends on how smooth you want the animation), then uploaded those screenshots to gifmaker.me. Next, I adjusted the image size and speed and downloaded the results. From there I uploaded the GIF to Imgur.com and copied and pasted the image link to here! Hope that helps.

If anyone has any other tips please share! The world needs more AB GIFs! :lol

I hate it when I try to find a specific video on YouTube for a live performance and I can't find it :( :no :mope :slam I'm trying to look for the performance of Find The Real from Sao Paulo Brazil where Mark had guitar problems and Myles had to improvise the solo. After already doing an improve solo in the start. I love that performance so much but I can never remember to save it or bookmark it, or when I do I eventually delete the bookmark :facepalm :/ I hope it wasn't deleted or anything otherwise I'll be looking forever for it :lol

I wish the concert intros coupled with Addicted to Pain and Writing on The Wall were released in HQ audio like the Come To Life one :/

MY MAN! Thanks dude, I always loved that intro. I didn't realize they ever used it again after the Blackbird tour!

From AB's Facebook page:

"Whaddya wanna hear?!
What song do you want to hear on the upcoming Euro tour?
VOTE BELOW -
1.The End Is Here
2.Find The Real
3.One Day Remains
4.One by One
5. Words Darker Than Their Wings
6.Lover
7. Cradle To The Grave
8.This Side of Fate"

Questions: Are they actually posting on FB or is someone else doing it for them? And how legit you think this is? I've already put the hope of seeing Words live behind myself and was VERY surprised by this post because of that.

If everyone comments Words I bet you it'd still be Find the Real lol

All kidding aside, I think Cradle needs to be played live as well. If that Royal Albert orchestra thing is true, I could see that being perfect.

Honestly, the song I'd love to see the most from that list is The End Is Here. Such a shame that they stopped playing it before the Wembley DVD, because it sounded so good when they started playing it again in 2011. That and an orchestra would really be it for me. I'd spontaneously combust right there and my soul would turn into fireworks.

Ranked preference from that list:

1. This Side of Fate
2. Lover
3. The End is Here
4. Cradle to the Grave

Words Darker... would be great too but I feel like the moment's passed. Also want to hear Peace Is Broken live but I'm pretty sure Myles just can't be bothered to get tight on that verse riff :lol
For all of the hope that it brings...

Not sure how it's possible, but I somehow forgot just how good Blackbird is as a whole album. Relistening to it a couple times lately, it may actually have replaced Fortress as my favorite AB album. First time I can say that since Fortress was released

This is from Download in France this year. Myles singing style sounds kinda different. Seems like he finally tries to avoid his nasal singing style.

Am I the only one who doesnt care for This Side Fate that much? Bridge/solo = okay, but melody/lyrics for verse and chorus= eh, meh.

Also, Last Hero is alright but some parts of the song are too dull for me.

This Side of Fate is a straight up masterpiece and i absolutely think the album is better than Blackbird
