General Discussion / The Concert Thread

Last post by BLUEVOODU - November 20, 2025, 06:35:14 PM

It's time to start the concert thread.  For some reason, 2025 has been a concert year.  I've been to at least 2 concerts - more on that later.

What concerts have you been to, are you planning to see and are looking forward to?  This is the concert thread!

Post it Up!

We always keep Pandora playing in our house, Chopin, Bach, Beethoven, etc.

Awesome - So... what song is on right now?   And... I dig classical music.

I've also been listening to the soundtrack to the DanDaDan anime. Very fun and catchy.

I will have to check that out!

In terms of Dream Theater... The last few albums weren't my favorite.  The new one rocks pretty well... Midnight Messiah is awesome. My son and I just went to the Dream Theater concert in Columbus, OH last month.  They played all Parasomnia... and it was awesome. Then they played tons of older selections like As I Am, Peruvian Skies, Take the Time... it was amazing... 2 hrs and 40 minutes of just Dream Theater playing (no opener...etc) with 1 20 min intermission.  I'm going to create a concert thread lol.

I am now listening to Dream Theater As I Am... Had to crack that on open after typing it.

Not at all, was just continuing the discussion. You are not the first person to say it doesn't look appealing, lol.

LOL good... it really does look like an Atari Jaguar controller LOL... but that was a decent controller 

Sure, would be fun to see who gets the closest. What would we bet?

Oooo... I have an idea for a 2 part bet.  Not sure on part 1... what do you think?   

However, for Part 2, we play an old school Left 4 Dead 2 versus round LOL.  Winner is on Survivors, loser is on infected.     Honestly, I'm not sure which one would actually be the winner LOL

Nintendo - Switch 2, Switch, 3DS, and Wii-U / Re: Cool Zelda Switch 1 Case

Last post by BLUEVOODU - November 20, 2025, 05:53:16 PM

That's a pretty cool case as well, @retro junkie !  I dig it.

I agree... teal color looks really awesome on this case.  I'm in the same boat, I already have an old school Zelda case.  It's the breath of the wild black case... and the cover is starting to fall off... and the handle is falling off.  HM... I didn't know this, just found it in this shape lol.  It is at least 8 years old though. This is my case (had to pull it from Ebay, couldn't find store image anymore):

SO... I might actually be in the market for a new case  I am watching for a deal now.

That is really not a bad price for that case. I am showcasing my Switch lite case here which is a Breath of the Wild design. The interior of the case is the same as the one you are showing. I like that teal color it goes well with the metal accents. I like the Zelda imagery. If I did not have my case that would sure peak my interest. Awesome.

Nintendo - Switch 2, Switch, 3DS, and Wii-U / Cool Zelda Switch 1 Case

Last post by BLUEVOODU - November 20, 2025, 09:42:53 AM

I saw this case at Best Buy and thought it was pretty cool.  This is a Zelda case that fits the Switch 1 console.  I thought the coin looking zipper handle was also pretty cool.  Not sure how sturdy it is... but I wish it was also available for the Switch 2.

I have seen many cool case designs and highlight them every once in awhile... I thought this was worth sharing.  Thoughts?

I hear you... hopefully my comment didn't come across as me dogging the controller.

Not at all, was just continuing the discussion. You are not the first person to say it doesn't look appealing, lol.

LOL... maybe we should take bets, @CreepinDeth to see who gets closest to the cost.  That would be funny.

Sure, would be fun to see who gets the closest. What would we bet?

Kicking this off!  Right now... I'm listening to Midnight Messiah by Dream Theater off their new Parasomnia album

I need to check the new album out. Wasn't a fan of the first single they put out. Will have to listen to the whole thing to see if the rest of the songs are better.

Right now, my rotation is a bunch of '80's pop and rock. Ozzy has been heavy in my rotation for a little bit now. Got back into Metallica after not listening to them for a while.

I've also been listening to the soundtrack to the DanDaDan anime. Very fun and catchy.

a different timeline.

It definitely is. This version exists in the comics as well but it's not THE Silver Surfer that everyone knows.
