Re: 11th album rumors and speculation
I upgraded to 10 from 8.1 and for the most part I'm happy about it. It was a little buggy at first but that seems to have settled down.Rangi Guy wrote:Team Chud here.

Re: 11th album rumors and speculation
I put 10 on my 2nd laptop to have a play with, but haven't gotten around to using it much.

No problems with 10. Just takes awhile to get used to simplified menus and such. My parents got a Surface Pro for Christmas and thing is awesome.

I use Windows Ten Club.
It's basically just Windows Ten, but $3 of its $600 price tag went to charity. Also, there was a glossy Mike McCready signature stamped on the box.
It's the only operating system in existence that you wish would slow down.

Re: 11th album rumors and speculation
I've been a fan since Ten but if its anything like the last 2 pieces of crap they put out they should just release a EP. I think if you combine the last 2 albums you may be able to piece together 4 or 5 songs for a halfway decent EP the rest belong on a eddie solo record, b sides or the garbage can.

Re: 11th album rumors and speculation
They're writing procedure now will not allow them to write a cohesive, half-decent album. You can't just half-write songs on your own over 5 years, come together, and democratically figure it out. It's garbage.

Re: 11th album rumors and speculation
I agree but there's nothing democratic about this band anymore just watching them live the past few years the guys look absolutely miserable playing some of these songs. Eddie needs to let someone else write a song or two for the album or at least co-write some of the lyrics. 1 song out of 36 over the past 3 albums doesn't give me too much hope thats going to happen again. What they should do is have each guy write 5 songs and than bring them in pick 2 and theres your album but Ed's ego is obviously too big to ever let something like that happen.pnjguy wrote:They're writing procedure now will not allow them to write a cohesive, half-decent album.
