We already have numerous threads devoted to music, some of them even still on the front page. We really don't need this to be a music thread.

Anyways, sorry for the rant, I live about 20 minutes away from the Capital of New York State called Albany, originally founded by the Dutch as Fort Orange until the English took it over

I've been to Albany... Nice small town.. I've also been to Lake George... It's not where you live, RK, is it?

I live south of Lake George but Lake George is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. Supposedly the cleanest water in the world too. I've done a lot of camping and hiking up there.

Albany recently got into a top ten poll in Time Magazine for being one of the nicest city (people wise that is) in the country.

[Dee]

I loved Lake George!! And that big ship... can't remember it's name right now, but I know it had a funny name LOL !

I've also been to NYC, but only for a day, and been to Saratoga as well

I've been to a camp but I can't remember it's name either hehe!! That was eight years ago, I was only ... 11 years old?? LOL

[Dee]

Was the ship called Mini-Haha?? I'm not kidding!

[rklenseth]

You mean the big ferry boat that hasn't moved in like ten years. I don't know all the boats' names by heart but that sounds like one of them. I'll ask one of my friends, who goes to Lake George about every weekend, if that is the one you're talking about.

Saratoga is a great place for historical reasons being the turning point of the American Revolution occurred there but not a place to live. Only people with money can afford to live there.

I'm happy you liked it up here in New York State. Usually when I tell people that I live in New York and I say in the hills, mountains, forests etc.. they don't believe me because they think New York is just one big city or something.

17, in Newcastle, student. Favorite song - Bohemian Rhapsody
Favorite bands - Queen and Iron Maiden.
Favorite more modern bands (ie not dead/disbanded): Kaiser Chiefs, Rammstein, Franz ferdinand and Greenday (Including the early stuff, not just the band wagon stuff).

I love the discworld books, by Terry Pratchett, and all of Douglas Adams books.

I have insomnia, which like Stephen Frys, allows me to spend all night reading.

My gender is insignificant and a social construction that identifies me with stereotypes that are partriarchially produced, and become accept norms that I refuse to adhere to...
(If you really want to know - ask Nick )

[wichita]

I'm 26, a male, and fully accept the patriarchially induced gender roles entailed therewith.

Originally from a small suburb of Wichita, Kansas (home to wheat, buffalos, and tornados smack in the middle of the States for those of you not familiar with our geography). Now working on my PhD in biophysics in Indiana at Purdue (Go Boilers).

Favorite bands: list is too long and I prefer listing genres anyway
blues, jazz, classic rock, alternative, punk (the kind with an actual message, not most of the skater variety), ska, bluegrass

[west]

20, college student, dirty frat boy, and general trouble-maker.
According to my Audioscrobbler, my favorite bands are Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles, Iron and Wine, The Flaming Lips, Starflyer 59, The Decemberists, Guster, Mxpx, Bob Marley, and Belle & Sebastian.

I don't know that that's the list I would have chosen, but apparently they're what I've played the most. (although my music player is usually set to 'random shuffle'

[Where are all the monkeys]

i'm 17 studying History, English, Philosophy and sociology for A level

*Collapses from shock* So few explosions, how can anyone neglect the sciences? History i find interesting, and Philosophy I can see being half decent, not a clue about sociology but...ENGLISH! With no visible counterbalance, how can you survive?

(I now apologise for my bored self's impressing his opinions unfairly on an audience that dosn't really care, purly because he is to shy to talk about himself. Less bored self, signing off now)

ENGLISH! One of the most terrible subjects known to mankind! It takes the pure thing that is a book and destroys it utterly! Curse all who take english as a subject for ever more!

(Less bored self back again, I apologise again, and all those who are now cursed might as well know that I took the subject to, and am in the same boat)

ENGLISH!..............
