Yes please!

Sorry, guys. Load=blown. Like I said, everything that's left is minor. Rob Zombie is like a high school theater director, and I think his people fuck with him sometimes to get him worked up...like students, I guess. The guys in Korn talked endlessly about food they liked ("ah, shit, dude...what was the name of that fucking pancake house in Georgia?" "The one with the motherfuckin' blueberries?" and they're so serious about these blueberries...). I wasnt at the Tom Petty show but I hear the whole band is insanely nice and pretty much acts like they're part of the crew.

have you heard stories about what pearl jam is like, McP?

It sounds like I'd get on well with the Korn guys.

I want to put Korn into the three-album run thread but I don't want to get flamed.

You can't say load blown then drop a hilarious blueberry anecdote about Korn. You're holding back on us. Dig deep man!

I'm glad Tom Petty and Co. were cool I don't think I could handle it if they were assholes.

I like what this thread has turned into.

I really can't stand it when people go on about this great restaurant they went to, like they discovered the Holy Grail. Who cares? Apologies to everyone here that does that.

The Witchery by the Castle in Edinburgh is just fantastic.

Restaurants are my favourite thing in the world.

If we were ranking the threads, this one would win. Great read guys (and gals).

Where was this "GODDAMN I LOVE NO CODE" moment? I can't recall.

Pearl Jam needs a themed restaurant to fully complete this post Riot Act moneygrab.

I hear the waffles are great.

Oh man, a Pearl Jam themed restaurant. That would be, uh, awesome and hilarious at the same time.

I think we had a thread about this on the old board
