I think the problem is that the chorus would work better as a different section. Like an outro or something, like in The Wicker Man. It needs a more memorable chorus. It's still a good song though, with great riffage.

edit: And it's growing on me. But I agree that it needs to be more memorable.

I believe fall weather has finally hit us here. It's been damn chilly today!

 

[Saapanael]

Here too, I had to stay in the cold for a few hours.

Here we had the opposite (temperature-wise). After a few days of temperatures around zero, we suddenly had 12 degrees C this morning. Combined with rain it felt incredibly humid. There was condensed water on every window everywhere. Add to this a major electricity breakdown in the late night hours ... you wouldn't believe the air that met me at work this morning. Felt like a greenhouse.

It was a bit like that for us up until the beginning of this month and it just started getting chilly.

 

[SixesAlltheway]

Surprisingly warm around here for this time a year. It will change soon enough though

 

[Saapanael]

I think I'm sick because of that cold weather. My skin and throat are really sore, probably a temperature.

Edit: Discovered that the last solo in Alexander is Dave's, not the other way around. :O The man is even cooler now.

And Adrian plays the amazing solos before his. Both their solos combined in that section are just magical.

Indeed, both solos are amazing and need to be together but I've always thought that the latter one is one of the best solos of all time.

 

[Moon Child]

That is one of my favorite Davey solos.

Unless you use a totally different number scale to everyone else or have a different understanding of percentages, then yes...

We don't use percentages for grading. In most percentage grading systems I'm aware of, 68% is either a D or a C. How should I know whether you're happy with that?

 

[Perun]

We've got a grading system that goes from 1 to 5, 1 being the best. However, each grade also has a bandwidth from 0 to 9 with 0 being the best, as in, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2 and so forth. So yeah, I wouldn't know either what to make of 68%, with no idea of the standards the university sets, or what you expect from yourself. I got a 1.7 on my latest paper, and I'm disappointed as hell.

 

[Black Wizard]

Well 50% is a pass at Masters level. In British universities 40% is the pass mark for undergraduates. My first university gave a D for above 40, C for above 50, B for above 60 and A for above 70. My second university didn't give grades, just tells us the percentages.

 

[Perun]

So you're happy you passed.

 

[Black Wizard]

Yes. I thought my dissertation was shit and was expecting a poor mark so this mark was beyond my wildest dreams. It means that I'll graduate as a Master of Science with Merit.

 

[Perun]

In that case, congratulations!

 

[Perun]

So there is a lull in the conversation we spread over three threads, eh?

 

[Ariana]

Oh, was that one conversation?

 

[Perun]

We could call it three parallel conversations by the same three people, but that would paint a rather disadvantageous picture of our psyche, wouldn't you say?
