Do you have any recent pics of the polaroid camera? The links in the description are broken.

Halfway through Cadet Basic Training... my lord has it been challenging. Discipline is a difficult idea to work to embody. That and the fact that they don't hardly give us anytime to just sit down and relax. To find time to write letters home, I have to sacrifice precious hours of sleep. I am so glad, though, that I have been able to keep the music with me always. Whether it is on ruck marches or standing in formation for hours, just keeping a song in my head has helped me to perservere and take my mind to a happier place... Can't wait till I am done with all this $#!T and can get my DMG sent back from home. See you all in 3 weeks...

Thanks for all the good advice and info. Sorry I didn't respond as quickly... the past week has been rather busy for me. I will be sure to get back in touch with everyone as soon as training is over and I get internet access back in 6 weeks time. Wish me luck!

Hey guys... I am at that special time in my life where I leave my parents forever and head off to college (well... more like the military academy at west point). It will be truely sad to leave behind the wonderful scene that's gotten going here in the Seattle area, but I know there must be equally exciting scenes and places out there. So, given that I leave in less than 10 days for cadet basic training, I thought I would ask around to see if anyone could give me some insight into the New York scene. I know a few of you are probably from New York and I have heaed a lot about some good shows goin' down in Rochester, but are there particularly lively venues I should keep an eye out for shows at? Or, in your opinion, are there any local artists who I should definitely see?

I know I kind of sound like a novice, but I'm just trying to plan ahead to have some things to do on the few weekends I will have off...

Seattle show will be so live... I am gonna be a little bit late, but will be makin' up for it by bringin' a bunch of friends!

damn... I really want to go, but something has come up last minute and I can't. Already bought my ticket though... If anyone wants it, then just pm me and I will give you the Will Call info.

F*** YESH!... now there are two awesome shows in Seattle less than a week apart. This will indeed be a week to remember!

Dat Seattle show... imma hit that up!

OpenTZT is a pretty powerful VJ freeware. I use it for a bunch of stuff.

oh man... you'd best watch who you let on to the server... this site is full of trolls

I tried my hand at Voltz a while back. I kinda liked FTB more, but I might look back into it and will hit you up if I do.

I miss Firebrand Boy too... I occasionally hear about him, but have not heard about any new songs or anything of that sort.

F***... I will be off at Cadet Basic Training... -.- I always miss all the good shows... any more X-bit shows comin up?

Maybe remake them yourself?

Record the samples yourself, or download an mp3/wav sample pack. There are 303 and 909 sample packs out there.
Make everything louder with audacity.
Make new sample kits with lsdpatcher.

I agree with Jotie. If you need some new kits, then you can find a lot of them here: http://lsdsng.com/kits

Sweet deal!... I'll be sure to buy it. Any Heossentials shows coming up soon?
