Honestly though, who can speak Maori anymore? Kaore taku reo Maori te tino pai.

I missed them by a DAY at Benicássim while I was on holiday in Spain. They've got some of the best setlists too, great balance of old and new. Ash is really responsive on their website to fans, it's definitely worth a go.

Took me a good half minute to realise that was a microphone.

Still no mod explanation on the thread merge, and this is now becoming a messy combination of both.
-
I don't think these threads should have been merged. One was about the band and the music, the other, newer one was more about the condition of the messageboard.

As much as I'd love to be as optimistic as you, I see messageboards in general as being total whingebuckets, with little wiggle room for exception. That's what it's called! I couldn't remember when I was writing my original post.

The difference between the AFI example you cite and the .mu is that this board gets a LOT more traffic, and so a LOT more people are going to be citing a LOT more opinions, and when message boards reach a certain size, they tend to transition from a circle jerk to whinge central. I've seen it before, over at LucasForums. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic was released, and it resulted in a lot more traffic for the LucasArts message board, but by the time of the third 'installment' of said series (an MMO ), a slough of other successful games had been released, the atmosphere started shifting from positive to negative, as the gaming company became harder and harder pressed to top their best titles. Same case here at the .mu. Muse are steadily growing in popularity, and with a steady increase of traffic on the boards, there's going to be more and more negative discussion (as their recent methods for getting their music 'out there' are subject to scrutiny as well, dear Twilight). Humans tend to be cynical people, and so it's easy to see the negativity overshadow the positivity. Did not expect that to be that long.

Gorillaz in NZ! Auckland on the 21st of December.

I wasn't expecting to cry for several reasons: I am male, my favourite Pixar film as a kid was always A Bug's Life, and Tim Allen tends to annoy me in his roles. I tried hard not to cry, and I failed miserably. :'( Those last twenty minutes proved that whoever writes the screenplays for these Pixar films is a pro at heartstring-tugging. That being said, it wasn't perfect, but I say that as a notorious nitpicker of movies in general, because it did everything so well, even by Pixar standards, despite a few somewhat contrived or underdeveloped story elements. I reckon it has become my favourite Pixar film now, passing A Bug's Life several times over. IMDB is certainly off by a bit, but it is still by far the best of the Toy Story series and up there with the best of the Pixar productions.

Oh surely. Just saw Toy Story 3.

Hello new friend!
If I had the time, I'd compile the whole thing and make a big fat 'story' post... would be a total riot, be great for filler text and the like.

Such a fucking letdown.

Seen the finale yet?

I've been in Amrrrrrrrrrrca for a few years now, and then a few more for uni. Homesick as.

Aww I miss Hell. That's harsh!
