Hey Ariana, thanks for asking :)
Perhaps this earlier post was a bit confusing:

I played with the band from my work but it wasn't a gig. We practiced. But it was for the first time since we did our performance at the summer party from my work, last June. So it was very nice to play again. We're trying to do another gig this summer again. :)

The next day I did go to a concert (also with two collegues from work) by a band who were a bit of a name in my country in the early eighties. Now they played a very small club in The Hague. Here's how they sounded (from another gig) :
Kind of cheery/poppy sounding stuff perhaps, but I love those melodic guitars. The guitarist/singer was the only one left from the old days.

This is a good song. It's exaclty kind of cheery/poppy but still deserves a compliment.
 
Catchy stuff indeed. The chorus is a bit less but I love that beginning. Good voice also. I think it could have been on the A.S.a.P. album. ;-)

I realized that you were playing with your band but I thought you'd play in front of audience.

In other news, I can't believe how much I have to do after the week spent at home. :eek:
 
BBQ and metal, is there a better combo?

Doro was awesome, very intimate venue, great show. Got a picture with her afterwards too, will post later.
 
Good morning, world!

Interestingly enough, I once saw Doro in a very similar venue, with burgers and beer. I didn't get a photo, but I got to shake her hand.
 
It's the second week of the second term of school and I'm sick of it already. Cute girls of my class aren't enough to keep me in there, it's THAT boring. :p
 
They're not as cute as the ones in my class. Anyway it won't work if you put the most beautiful girl in the world to my class, I'll still prefer not to go to school. :D
 
As a guy who's afraid of roaches and insects more than anything in the world (seriously, if I see a cockroach I run away, fast and furious, I even consider leaving home at times), I'm watching kitchen videos with roaches roaming around the plates. What is wrong with me?
 
I have a friend, he's about 1.90m tall and weighs about 120kg - quite a big guy. Once we were at his place and this big cockroach just crept out of somewhere. That guy was up on his chair in one leap, screaming like a five-year-old girl! :lol: I caught the bug and flushed it down the toilet. So what is wrong with him and you?
 
Well when I was five years old me and my parents went to this camp. We stayed in tents (we didn't build the camp/pitch the tents they were already there) which were filled with flying cockroaches. You could see them standing on the walls of the tent as you were trying to sleep. One day, when I was out roaming around, a flying cockroach flew straight at me and landed on my neck. They're also poisonous. I immediately stripped off my clothes to get rid of it and ran straight to my mother to calm down.

This experience could be the reason for me.
 
There used to be cockroaches all over the place when I lived in Karachi. I was around five back then, and I was scared to death by them. Seriously, like Flash, I used to run out of the room screaming, and my parents had to get rid of them. I wasn't convinced I was safe until my parents showed me the crushed cadavre as they got rid of it.

I don't think I've seen a wild cockroach since, but at times in the zoo, and of course on plenty of pictures and in films. I think they are the only animal that I am genuinely disgusted by. I don't know if I'd be as scared by them, but just thinking of them right now makes me sick.
 
Wow. These stories sound serious. Maybe the fear and disgust really go back to early childhood. Just like most other personal issues.
