My list gets smaller every year, no grandparents left anymore last one went a few months back but my list this year goes:

H.I.M Funeral Of Hearts t-shirt
Element leather wallet
Lambswool car washing pad thingy

Speaking of aircon I am already lucky enough to have my small room cooled by a split system so it was a different christmas lunch this year with my family all eating in my room with tables setup and all :)

What I'd really want costs 20 cents or less but probably won't happen

Man, I want Obes' mum as well.

orry for the derailing,but His Infernal Majesty,what are they like? Ive only heard them do a cover to "Don't Fear the Reaper" and think its quite good.Ive tried google but im just getting crap and no official web site.

my g/f describes them as a heavier version of the rasmus, i describe the rasmus as a lighter version of HIM*seeing as him was around well before the rasmus*.

they are heavy, but they are melodic*spelling* best to grab a hold of a few songs using what ever means you warrant as acceptable and listen to them, you will tell straight off the bat wether you like them or not,

i personally love every genre of music and i hold a place for him as a good band amongst my collection, def worth seeing live,

Merry Xmas all.

I got a 60gig usb 2 1/2' drive from the bro, and aircon from sister (old but works) and usual stuff from the parents (after shave/razorz/socks)

If you are looking for some good songs to have a listen get

[Dark Light Album]
Vampire Heart
Rip Out The Wings Of A Butterfly

[Razorblade Romance Album]
Your Sweet 666

They are probably my fav songs out of all their albums.


Looking at tickets, I have never been to the Tivoli before and the tickets are just listed as General Admission. Can anyone tell me what that means exactly, is it just rock up stand in line and first in best dressed for the best spots when the doors open?
