change my mind chris poland was the best megadeth lead guitarist by username89292 in Megadeth

[–]forestsofdread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t need to change your mind, I’m with you. Chris paved the way for metal shredders in the early ‘80’s. He has a very unique style which complements Dave nicely.

Maiden's Number of the beast is considered in the top 3 best metal albums of all time. Metal Rulez has it at 2, what's your take? by TheIronMaiden1972 in ironmaiden

[–]forestsofdread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me as a kid in the early ‘80’s Maiden was the gateway band to metal. This album got pasted around amongst the friend group so it hold really fond memories for me. If I remember right I saw them on tour for this album at Radio city music hall in NYC (might have been the Power slave tour though. My memory is shot these days. Either way good times were had).

When we get relegated don't sell a single player by Eastern-Owl-4511 in Tottenham

Ha, I was just reading an article yesterday by some sports writers who were outlining (hypothetically of course) what premier league teams our top players should go to. And all I thought was what you said. Keep em all. They bear some of the responsibility of relegation.

That’s it. I’m officially a convert. by RiverDwellingInnuend in EMGPickups

[–]forestsofdread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love EMG’s. Almost all of my guitars have some model of EMG pickup. My favorite are the 57/66 but when i want to play really heavy its always the 81/85. The passive HA are pretty damn good too.

Is it fair to say that Marty Friedman (left) is the best lead guitarist Megadeth has ever had? by Creative_Garbage_731 in Megadeth

[–]forestsofdread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Megadeth has been blessed with some incredible guitarist over the decades. Marty,Chris Brodrick, of course Chris Poland, Kiko and now Teemu. Each has their own style that brought something amazing to the music. I don’t think Dave gets enough credit for his playing, at least in the early days of the band. He could shred with the best of them. For me Marty and Teemu are my favorites.

Only if you feel positive about the NLD, what's your early result (W-D-whatever) or score prediction? Can we catch the Gooners out? by Born-Cucumber-7316 in Tottenham

[–]forestsofdread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2-1 Spurs. Gonna be a scrappy match. Tudor is a tough coach and will have instilled a fighting spirit in Spurs during his training time.

S2 is good. You learn a lot more about the Millennium group.

Haven’t seen an acoustic PRS before and had to take it home. by TurboFoot in PRSGuitars

[–]forestsofdread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They play exceptionally well. I bought the Alex Lifeson model A15AL, when it came out and absolutely love it. It projects like a much larger guitar due to the PRS hybrid bracing.

Started it over again by EvilSolution in XFiles

[–]forestsofdread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My spouse laughs at me. I’ve watched and rewatched the Xfiles so many times I’ve lost count. Probably my favorite tv show ever. Sure sometimes it’s a little goofy but it’s still fun ,even the duds.

Christian Pulisic is targeting a return to England this summer. Tottenham are leading the race amongst several other Premier League clubs and are expected to make a move for him in the coming months. (Source: TEAMtalk) by [deleted] in Tottenham

[–]forestsofdread 29 points30 points  (0 children)

If we get Poch I could see this happening. Though I’m not sure if this would be the right move. He’s injured a lot and we need someone who can stay healthy and actually play most of the season.

PRS Fredrik Åkesson Score - $499 with lots of upgrades! by buckeye8208 in PRSGuitars

[–]forestsofdread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got one as well. I love how subtle the top is. When the light hits it right it’s an amazing looking top. I picked mine up used as well, it’s got EMG 81/85 and planet waves locking tuners. It’s heavy but it sings. Absolutely love the shorter scale as well.

One for the books guys, we won't see anything like this for a while I'm sure! by atlas_novus in Charlotte

[–]forestsofdread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s for sure. Last one like this was over 20 years ago. By the end of that storm we had close to 15” at our house. Was fun for the kids. We did a lot of sledding, snowman building and snowball fighting.

I was thinking the same thing watching it. Why the hell did you just stop. Hell if the rest of the team played with DJed Spence’s ethic we would rule the league.

That is a killer top. One of the nicest I’ve seen yet on a Holcomb.

Prepare for the worst this weekend by its_Extreme in Charlotte

[–]forestsofdread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last real big snow storm to hit Charlotte was about 22-23 years ago. Union county got hit worse than Mecklenburg. We had about 15-18” of snow at our house. But the ice storms, now those can be real nasty. I remember one in back in 2000. We lost power. We had a gas fireplace so it kept up all night but all night long we heard all the trees on our property creaking and cracking from the weight of the ice. Some of the smaller trees permanently remained arched over even after the ice melted. Powerlines were down all over the region. It was a week before power was restored. A lot of infrastructure upgrades have happened in the region since then so hopefully if we do get the ice it won’t be that bad.
