I thought the entire point of having a beard was to get snow and ice on it?In other news, I went downhill skiing today. Unfortunately, the weather turned out to be cloudy and foggy, with a little snow (bordering on freezing rain). It froze on my goggles, in my beard, my jacket stuck to the chairlift a couple of times ... and all the slopes in the higher part of the mountain had a visibility bordering on zero.
Everyone has a really exciting life - except me
Or people get very excited about doing boring things. I'm a member of a Facebook group dedicated to being boring.Well. Remember that there is a strong positive bias on the internet. People are more likely to share moments of excitement than days of boredom ...
That's the purpose of the Rant thread. Give people a place where they are expected to be mad instead of being expected to be happy all the time (because, well, we are not)Unless it's @Perun in the Rant thread

Iron Maiden.I've decided I'm going to take this year to listen to a couple entire discographies by bands that I have overlooked, undervalued, or never fully given a chance. Starting with Judas Priest.
Who else should I try? Ideally, I'm looking for a classic metal band, not looking to delve into extreme death metal, black metal, etc.

I'm planning on doing Rage after that. They have 24 albums. They have had gazillion lineups. They had many different phases (heavy, power, prog, symphonic, speed, thrash, basically everything non-extreme). Vocal styles changed accordingly (thrash metal screaming, then Halford-like screaming, then more mid-ranged softer stuff). Used real orchestra on a few albums too.
I had a similar idea and I intend to investigate all things Marillion this year.I've decided I'm going to take this year to listen to a couple entire discographies by bands that I have overlooked, undervalued, or never fully given a chance. Starting with Judas Priest.
