s that the
next one is going to be great just because the last one was. It way well be
great, but there could be other factors that will mitigate the great ness of
the experience.
Anyway, sorry it was a disappointment for you. I think you need to get your
band together and show up there next year and show those slackers wussies
how to RAWK!!!!

forum and others, but couldn't find much info.
Gotta throw my spare card in to load up on this effect, though. What a hog.

KentI agree, it's about the song.
"Control" - Nice production, good vocals. Love the way the drums feel.
But on first listen it's not hitting me as an example of really amazing,

See what you think of these guys:

They have some moments.
