Nothing really, we just get a little dramatic around here sometime...usually right before a tour or album release  ;D

It mostly involved the leak and what came after it. Everyone began flocking to the official forum, of all places, to ask for the leak, most of whom claimed to be "longtime fans" who went ahead and panned the album after one listen and never returned here. Our moderator had to spend a long time deleting the posts, and it turned into a war of words between long-time members, leading to one of them leaving. The bad vibes persisted through the album release, leading to one new member turning into a complete asshole and offended one of our very best members until she also left. Neither have returned since. It appears that the same thing happened around the Z release (I haven't been around that long).

Once again, though, it appears that the good vibes have won out in the end.  :)

And I was just about to say, "Hey Corey, where you been? Good to see you again..."

Oh, and GO TO HELL ALABAMA

I've been here. I just don't post much anymore. I've been staying away from the MMJ section up top for the most part. I read some of them, but there's way too many "need tickets" threads and such for my tastes these days.

Welcome on (the) board Bully.  Not too much to report on recent events, honestly. Some people thought one thing, others thought something else. Blah-de-blah.


Hey Corey, how's things - still staying positive?

Things are pretty positive right now. I haven't built anything, but there's plenty of double-whiskey-coke-no-ice.  :)
