Some lady brought everybody eggs and bacon and toast this morning. It was tasty, but we had no utensils, so I made a big breakfast sandwich.
 
The Dark Knight lived up to all the hype
 
Metallica!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rockon:

Saw them live last night. It was un-<censored by me>-believable! It was definitely worth staying 7 hours in the rain and getting so wet that water was still coming out of my t-shirt hours after it ended, and it was worth the 7 hours of standing up continuously too.

They played only older stuff, surprisingly. The stadium was full, beyond its limit. At the end, when they said they will be coming back in September, and "good night, Bucharest", the people were cheering so loud that even James looked slightly surprised!
 
Yeah!! And it sounded great!!!!!

They played a lot of old stuff.... from what I can remember they did Creeping Death, The Four Horsemen, Master Of Puppets, Whiplash, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Sad But True, Nothing Else Matters, Enter Sandman, and some others I can't seem to remember now, but they were all very famous songs of them. Master of Puppets in particular was awesome, in my opinion.

Edit: I found the whole playlist:
Spoiler :
Creeping Death
For Whom THe BEll TOlls

The audience was great. I sang and screamed with the rest of us until I lost my voice (I couldn't recognize my voice after the concert :p). I'm sure that at least half of the audience didn't understand James when he was making longer phrases in English, but you could tell from every single gesture of them that they loved it.

In fact I remember a funny moment near the end when Lars said: "Am I the only one who thinks 9 years is too long to wait for another concert?" (not sure about the exact few words at the end, but it has to be pretty close to my quote), and a good part of the audience started screaming "Yeeeeaaah!!!!!". I turned to the people around me and shouted, waving my hands "no! no!" and then a fraction of a second after the first "yeah" answer some guys at the front shouted "no! no! no!", and the crowd voice changed from "yeah" to "no". The "yeah" was probably too short for the band to notice from up there, especially when it was followed by a much stronger "no", but it was definitely a funny moment for who's fluent in English. :D

Here are some videos from the concert: http://www.metalhead.ro/Downloads-Filmari_cu_Metallica_de_la_Bucuresti-2169.html Very bad sound quality though. :(
 
Sadly it was slightly shortened... can't remember exactly what parts were cut but I do remember that it was not the whole song. So what, I say. :p It was still awesome.
 
One? Is that a remake of the Three Dog Night song "One" (which is awesome) or some other song just titled the same?
 
Ah. Yeah I remember seeing that video now. I didn't realize it was called "One." Sorry, but I have to say Three Dog Night's "One" is far superior.

And actually, this leads to a rave of a memory of the 1990 Missouri State Fair when I saw Three Dog Night and Air Supply in concert with a special lady under a starry sky. Wonderful memory. :)
 
Sweet and sour pork, though a pain in the ass to make, is a delicious and fantastic home-cooked meal.
 
personally i like u2's one better
 
I went to a birthday party a lil while back in Oxford, where the dress theme was "ballet".
Not having the biggest array of such clothing, I went for "stylish, camp, english homosexual" and wore what i usually do, with the exception of a flowery tie and matching braces.
People were coming up to me and saying "Good on ya, mate, I used to be a skinhead 15 years ago too".

:smug:
 
Thank you America! My wife, (a US citizen) has received a $300 "economic stimulus" check. As we live in Canada, I feel this is very generous of you, God bless America.
