POG PUB 2024: A New Year, A New Thread, A New You
It was an honor to spend 2o23 with yall. And I look forward to spending 2o24 here too.
Happy New Year!
Listened to David Guetta - Love don't let me go today and felt old.
It's more than 20 years old.
Never heard of that song and didn't know who David Guetta was until that song with Akon, which I hope to hell isn't 20 years old.
(Checked and it's merely 15 years old, so I don't feel so ancient)
The song yatta by green leaves is 23 years old!
I never knew the original song was satire somehow, it's well done but seems obvious now
relevant to recent discussion?
TBob’s got me on ignore again
Why in the world would anybody want to ignore IBD? It's outrageous I tell you!
I'm visiting my parents in Missouri btw, forgot to pack a password.
Oh, and the great Mojo Nixon has apparently died, RIP.
Let's keep it rolling with one of the best recordings in the history of music, TOOL opening a private show to a bunch of scientologists with the song Intolerance while they all go a lot heavier than you'd expect.
The way Maynard just randomly picks someone to stare at throughout the entirety of a song will never not be both ****ing terrifying and amazing.
Or when he puts fans in rear naked chokes and doesn’t miss a note (start at 3:50)
Broken YouTube LinkThe way Maynard just randomly picks someone to stare at throughout the entirety of a song will never not be both ****ing terrifying and amazing.
Maynard says in an interview that he was flashed a gun by one of the leaders at one point and apparently said to the guy, "if you do anything stupid, I'll start a ****ing riot".

Tool is amazing.
They were not good at all when I saw them last summer. Nothing about the show made me feel like I was actually "seeing" them instead of just chilling in my room listening to them.
I think they said maybe 50 words outside of their sings in their 1.5h set.
Yeah, Maynard is notoriously disconnected from the audience, and the other guys have no real reason to interact. I remember in college when they toured and played at the Sun Dome. Maynard literally spent the whole concert behind a backlit screen so all that ever seen of him was his silhouette.
Danny Carey has been my favorite drummer just about since I first picked up sticks. Absolute ****ing immortal.
I had to delete a few PMs in order to enter new sheep games. Among the departed, entries I submitted to sheeps 12 years ago or more.
Laziness is perpetual, sheep is eternal.
we are closer to history than we realize sometimes. the oldest person who i was close to was my grandmother, born in 1911. and all the adults in her life(when she was a kid) were born in the 1800s
and my mom(still alive) was born in 1943. all her grandparents were born in the 1800s
My grandmother will turn 104 this year. Born in 1920. I like asking her things like if she knew Lincoln and was George Washington nice to her? Did she have to have a driver's license to drive her horse and buggy?
I'm fine with stuff from the 80s being 40 years old.
It's **** like realizing that Call Me Maybe and Gangnam Style are 12 years old that make me feel ancient.
and adults who are too young to remember george bush being president
or watching tv shows/movies from a while ago, and you realize the old guy in the show is younger than you are
like christpher loyd was 46 when he filmed back to the future. im 52
Talking about going old... I'm heading out for a free lunch. The local mortuary is holding a lunch seminar about burial and funeral planning.
:p
free lunch! and all you have to do is contemplate your death, and spending the next 8 billion years buried in a box
