It can be less, it depends the commission!
I wanted to emphasize that whatever the percentage will be, I'll share it with the professional ship broker.

Gee, while I was typing this post, his driver called me. A sign ??
...Since there are no non-filter cigarettes in Midde East, he buys me some cartons from abroad, every now and then and he sends his driver to deliver me. This batch comes from Cap Vert  :D

I knew I should have seen Avenged 7X when they were here since they're skipping us on the upcoming tour. Oh well.

You didn't miss much.

BTW, I think Sabaton would be the perfect band for LooseCannon.
 
For some reason, the only thing I can think about right now is a nice, warm ham and egg sandwich. I'm starving.
 
Same here, but I won't eat. I'm doing some homeopathy --->curing yesterday's wine, with more wine. I've just received some new furniture for my home and I'm enjoying the new spaces.

Explain why I'd like Sabaton.

To me, this band has LooseCannon written all over it. I know the two of us have a fairly similar taste when it comes to this sort of music, and I'm just loving them.
Of course, there's the lyrical themes. The songs are mostly about the World Wars and assorted 20th century conflicts, often selecting some of the more obscure stories (at least from a western perspective). And while the lyrics are sometimes extremely cheesy (They're the Panzer elite, born to compete, never retreat!), they are actually not stupid, and you can tell the guys know what they are singing about. The music is filled to the rim with an epicness that is so over the top that it is actually cool. What makes this work is the fact that they are a bunch of extremely good musicians that are clearly into what they are doing with passion. I had some problems getting used to the singer at first, but I soon recognised that he has a very charismatic voice that is perfectly matched by his stage persona (that guy was born to front a band). And finally, they have a good dose of self-irony that makes the entire band really fun and enjoyable.

Check these for a start:

Attero Dominatus (about the Battle of Berlin)
Screaming Eagles (about the Siege of Bastogne)
40:1 (about the Battle of Wizna; this could be called their greatest hit, and made them wildly popular in Poland)

Nightwish - Wishmaster anyone?  :)

Yeah, Perun is finally into power metal! :yey:  ;)

I like your 2nd and 3rd link better.

The voice is not that bad. Reminds me of the Grave Digger dude.

In fact this band is really a cross between Grave Digger and Nightwish (the way those choir kind of vocals are done is very recognizable, but listen to 3.07-3.37 from the last song, really a literal Nightwish piece of music).

I know this was meant for LC, but I can't resist to comment on it. I find their style highly unoriginal, and playing on nationalistic sentiments is an easy way to score.

Still, I can imagine that this stuff rocks as hell, live.

I've always been into some power metal bands, I just have to like them. ;)
But yeah, the Wishmaster/Attero thing came to me as well. I like Attero Dominatus better, though. ;)

Yes, but he doesn't have that near-unbearable German accent.

I edited my previous post. I hope you don't mind my negative comments. It's not that important.

Foro, why? What makes you think I took this personally, or badly? Come on...
