Top Albums of 2008/Top Concerts of 2008

[Ghosts_on_TV]

Hey Ghosts, I'm pretty sure I met you at Bonnaroo, over in VIP camping (I was with Bunny, Dan, Ecupirate, Idioteque and that motley crew).  Our camp had the flag with a pic of RedVelvet on it.

Right across the street from us?

Well, I'm not sure where you were, but maybe?  We had a huge camp set up...about 12 or so tents -- flags with RedVelvet, a Louisiana flag, Corncat, and we had a tiki bar in the center...I definitely remember you being there a couple of times.

I was hanging with some inforoo peeps that had a huge campsite for a bit...

Hi! I have an inforoo screen name (Evilurges), but I didn't post a whole lot over there. I actually wanted to come hang out a bit more throughout the weekend, but I had friends all over the place and it was hard. You guys were super nice to me and Kerrie (Ghostess on TV) when we were there though. Thanks! Maybe this time we could hang out a bit more.  8-)

Oh yeah, definitely.  I think ALady (from this board) may be joining us in VIP this year!

It is a distinct possibility.

Im a big hip hop fan (not rap, or crunk, or whatever the kids call it these days), and Lil Wayne blows.

You have too many posts to be a brainwasher, so I just assume youre ignorant to hip hop these days. Check out the "Diggin in the Crates" thread and hopefully a few of us will get your ears re-attached to your tympanic membrane.

At least you put MMJ ahead of Wayne  ;D

Oh, that's a tough one to miss. If they come around, definitely go. They're fantastic live.

Sorry, I just happen to enjoy Lil Wayne. I don't claim to be an expert on hip hop, but I just really enjoyed Tha Carter III. Like I said, I'm no expert, but I thought the album was well done and had some of the best songs of 2008 on it. It was an artistic statement, an artist putting out his best work while all eyes were on him. I enjoyed every song, there was no filler, and you have to admit, the guy is different. Plus, I am a sucker for Auto-Tune.......
