  • The Nokia is decent enough, but the keyboard is very weird. The lack of gaps between the letters can lead to allot of annoying accidental presses. Not to mention it's a Nokia, which automatically means it's a brick. Personally I hate brick phones, but maybe you don't. The LG has 3G while the Nokia doesn't and 3G can mean allot (You don't have to pay extra for 3G). The keyboard ...

    @jakob187: I'm pretty sure it may come to Android. Allot of applications that were originally on the iPhone are being ported to the Android Marketplace. Sooner or later, we'll get it too.

  • ahriman22 replied to the topic Did Texas ban marriage?
    @Suicrat: Oh I know that Texas is only but a part of the US, but you must admit that it's the morons of the US that take the spotlight. When people think about the US they think about fat, lazy idiots who like to shoot each other. Although it's true that most of the population is not like that, the rest of the world thinks of the US that way.

  • ahriman22 replied to the topic My computer is boned
    @natetodamax:  Main problem seems to be the lack of a Security Suite. Do a System Restore to an earlier date (Make it at least a month, to be safe) and install some security, then run it to make sure the problem isn't there anymore. You'll be fine from then on as long as the suite is on.    DON'T get anything Norton, ever. I have McAffee and I like it, ...

    This is why everyone loves/hates the US. People hate it because it's full of idiots (And the idiots take the spotlight) and people love it because it's the comedy relief.

So I got a job at a blockbuster (Literally 2 minutes away), which also happens to be my first "legit" one(I don't think gigging is considered a job). Good thing is that most of the employees know me since I go so often, so at least I don't have to go through the awkwardness of meeting new people (I hate doing that). I hurrayed when I checked the minimum wage in Quebec, since I thought it was 8$.... Now it just so happens to be 9.00$, hehe awright. Not that it's extremely high or anything, but it's not bad, even my mom went lol wut when I told her.

I'm working full time during the summer and then switching to part time for the school year and I love that they only open at 12 and not some stupid time like... 6 in the morning.

In other news: I got in a fight with my girlfriend's mother after she got all pissed with her (GF) that I'm 16 (Girlfriend is 21) and that I'm not Asian... Gotta love Asian mothers... We ended up getting home (Her place) shaken up and me with a a very nasty cut from a kitchen knife on my arm. Not that serious or anything, but obviously I'm not allowed to interrupt Mom when she's screaming at her daughter because of her daughter's arrogance to talk back.

Good times.

Also I've spent allot of time on Left 4 Dead... Maybe too much time. Oh well, for some reason I still can't get the "What are you trying to prove" achievement... Dammit!

This is what... my 3rd one today?

I FINALLY GOT MY THOUSAND POSTS!!!11!!1!!!!!
I'm so happy now...


I really need a life.


Added by ahriman22 on June 29, 2009

I've never really made a proper introduction here. I just joined and started posting...

I think it's time to do so.

Well... My IRL name is Devon, a name which I hate so very much but whatever. I'm 16 years old and "employed" ass a drummer, not that that should be a surprise for anyone any more. I currently reside in Montreal, French tard land, Land of milk in bags. I can be a royal asshole at times, but heh, whatever mon.

I'm in a band and we're constantly holding concerts, you would think at this point we would have a record deal... We don't since we hold all our concert ourselves and pay out of our own pockets and we have turned down some offers simply because we aren't ready yet. We prefer to wait a while before we start recording (And unfortunately record music vidyas... Bleh), not to mention concert are super fun for me and the audience. Mosh pits, stage diving, onstage antics, blood, FLAMING SOLOS... Yer.

My setup right now is:
Tama Starclassic Bubinga Omni-Tune (Fuck. Yeah. Had to save up liek hell for that one)
  • 22" x 20" Bass Drum
  • 12" x 9" Tom
  • 13" x 10" Tom
  • 15" x 12" Tom
  • 16" x 16" Floor Tom
  • 18" x 16" Floor Tom

I have 3 snare drums, the one I use depends on the song
  • TAMA Warlord Collection Valkyrie 14" x 6" Snare
  • Mapex Black Panther Mayan Steel 14" x 5.5" Snare
  • Mapex Black Panther Chris Adler Signature 12" x 5.5" Snare

I also have a Pearl Fire Cracker Snare Drum for effects (12" x 5")

Misc. Drums:

My cymbal setup goes like so:

Yeah... That's allot of cymbals. None of them are Zildjian though, it's just that the Paiste site has no builder. (I know the set doesn't look liek what I described, but it had shitty options so I just went with the default.)
Going from left to right:
  • 14" Sound Edge Hi-hats (The Hi-Hats are the ones right beside the snare, under the splashes)
  • 8" Alpha Splash (Splashes are the smaller cymbals)
  • 10" Rude Splash
  • 12" Alpha Splash
  • 20" Rude China (Chinas are the ones that look shallow, the darkest one in this picture, there are 3 of them.)
  • 20" Rude Power Ride (The rides are the biggest ones)
  • 18" Rude Novo China
  • 18" Signature Drak energy Crash Mark I
  • 17" Rude Wild Crash
  • 19" Rude Wild Crash
  • 18" Alpha Medium Crash
  • 20" Rude Novo China
  • The biggest one... 24" Rude Mega Power Ride.

You would probably say over kill, but I say diversity. What I like are different sounds and this setup fits that bill perfectly. Sorry about the writing, I tried to identify them for you, but writing with a mous is... Hard.

If you're wondering about total cost for all this, I'll guesstimate a good 30, 000$, not that my current set was bought over time, but the profits from our gigs sped up my buying process.

Well that's it, my proper intro, if you have questions, just ask.

Update: I forgot to put my hardware here. All hardware is Tama, but my pedals are Pearl Eliminator Demon Drives. I have the double pedal version, they're beauties. They also cost a whopping 670$...

It's a pretty good movie, something I appreciated since I just love arguments/debates and being a smoker myself.
I didn't know what to expect going in, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's very funny and it actually makes you think a bit, not that I changed sides, I still think smokers should stop being hated on.

If you haven't watched it, I suggest you do.

In other news, I recently did a gig and I finally performed my 10 minutes solo with flaming drumsticks with a positive crowd.
