Dream Set Lists, Part Three

Time for Iron Maiden!

This one is more tough for me, cause I'm not that attuned with all of Maidens albums.

So this one will be a little shorter than 15 songs. But nevertheless, this concert will kick ASS!

Lets get going!



--Intro--
1. Prowler (The intro song is difficult with Maiden, but I think beginning with this will get everyone extatic!)
2. Charlotte The Harlot (great follow up, everyone singing along with the chorus)
3. Flight Of The Irus (it gets heavier. one of my favourite songs)
4. Wasted Years (another favourite, this one raises the roof)
5. Die With Your Boots On (A classic. This one before the intermission)
--Intermission--
6. Brave New World (one of the few "new songs", that are extremely good.)
7. The Trooper (This one give me chills. Everyone sings along with Bruce.)
8. Run To The Hills (This one should always be midway, everyone singing the chorus. Wonderful)
9. Phantom Of The Opera (another old classic. Bruce can do the vocals good.)
10. Remember Tomorrow (Love this song. We're closing in on the finish.)
--Intermission 2--
11. 2 Minutes To Midnight (Essential. Wonderful chorus.)
12. The Number Of The Beast (Peak of the show. Everone loves this one. The solos kicks ass!)
13. The Wicker Man (before the finish, we need this one.)
14. Hallowed Be Thy Name (The big finish. After this is done, its thank you and goodbye.)


Here you have the ultimate Iron Maiden set list.

Next in line... Pantera!

Dream Set Lists, Part Two

Alright next in line we have MEGADETH!

Due to the lack of clips around the internet with Megadeth live, this one is more difficult.

Though with my attuned senses I think i'll manage this anyway.

Lets get going!


Same rules apply.


--Intro--
1. Sleepwalker (United Abominations is hailed for a reason, best intro. Get everyone warmed up)
2. Rattlehead (Great followup. Keep em warm!)
3. Washington Is Next! (Another great from UA, Dave needs to do the vocals extremely well here.)
4. Mary Jane (one of my favourites. Love this one.)
5. In My Darkest Hour (last one before the intermission.)
--Intermission--
6. Trust (Everyone sings along. Epic song.)
7. Tornado Of Souls (With Marty, this one should knock them off the ground)
8. Hangar 18 (Solos important here, crowd getting wilder here)
9. Symphony Of Destruction ( great finish, now for the second intermission)
--Intermission 2--
10. Last Rites/Loved To Deth (great intro, great song. Crowd getting warm again)
11. She-Wolf (good follow up, closing in on the finish)
12. Rust In Peace..Polaris (with everyone singing along with the chorus, I'm getting wild just thinking about it)
13. Countdown To Extinction (The last minute is beautiful, crowd just waiting for the big finish)
14. Holy Wars...The Punishment Due (the big finish. After this is done, its thank you and goodbye)


Amazing list.


Now Iron Maiden!

Dream Set Lists, Part One

So I think all music lovers should have a dream setlist from their favourite bands.

Which means of course that I'm gonna post here my dream setlists of my favourite bands.

The rules are simple:

- 15 Songs Max.

- 8 Songs Minimum.

- They have to be in right order. Not just a random order. Imagine the band playing those songs in that particular order. Sometimes the order that the songs are in, can be a huge difference.

- One cover song is allowed.


So lets get going. I'll begin with the kings themselves, Metallica.

--Intro--
1. Blackened (The best song to start things up with. Mother of thrash)
2. Creeping Death (Nice followup, get the crowd going)
3. For Whom The Bell Tolls (Enter Sand... wait I mean Cliff)
4. No Remorse ( James vocals here should be outstanding.)
5. Ride The Lightning (Kirks time to shine)
--Intermission--
6. Nothing Else Matters (Just like 91, then this one will get the crowd in tears)
7. Welcome Home( Great song, and I think a proper follow up.)
8. Orion (With Cliff, this should knock everyone out.)
9. To Live Is To Die (the short version, with MoP right after)
10. Master Of Puppets (the peak of the show, you'll rather die before quitting now)
11. Battery (without the acoustic intro, to keep the audience on their heels.)
--Intermission 2--
12. Fade To Black (first warm up the crowd again, and Kirk shows off a little more)
13. Seek & Destroy (get the crowd all crazy again, fans singalong.)
14. The Four Horsemen (gets even wilder, now they are waiting for the finish)
15. The Call Of Ktulu (The last minute of the song should give that special feeling, "I never want this night to end". This song hits the final note, and its thank you goodbye."



Another dream setlist coming right up...next on the line is....Megadeth!

Heath Ledger...

This is one of the most unbelievable and shocking news i've ever laid my eyes on.

Heath Ledger...

http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/Movies/01/22/heath.ledger.dead/index.html

It wasnt until recently when I personally discovered his talent. Now I'm ashamed that I didnt notice him earlier.

His work on Brokeback Mountain was impressive, and his soon to be released work on the next Batman movie "The Dark Knight", where he potrays The Joker, this was gonna be his biggest performance ever.

This is so tragic... words can't describe this...

You may be thinkin "So what! People die every day. Just because he's a hollywood star, he should get more recognition?"

Actually, Heath was one of the few potential and GOOD actors in Hollywood. And most importantly he was a decent and good guy. I didnt know him personally, but I can tell. And a hell of an actor.

He will be remembered. Not only by the public, but by me too. When "The Dark Knight" releases, Heath must honored for that. I'm certain that the production will feel the same way.


This man, like many else, did not deserve death. Since its unclear exactly how it all happened, no more words need to be said.

R.I.P Heath Ledger

Frida...

So this came as quite a shock to me. As I'm writing this, my mind is going fiftythousand miles per second of thinking.

This bullshit may not seem interesting to you readers out there, cause this concerns only me, but I'd share this with you anyway.

Last night(the night that just was), I had a dream about a girl. No, not just a girl, THE GIRL.


She went in my class when I was in middleschool, and now all of the sudden, she popped into my dream.

I haven't thought about her in ages, and now she was in my dream, and we were talking and it all seemed so real.

Here's how it happened:

I was sitting in some kind of coffeeshop with a couple of friends. The coffeshop had large windows, so you could easily see the street and all that was happening outside. So we were sitting on the second floor, so we hade a quite nice view over the city(Uppsala, Sweden).

Then all of the sudden she walked by outside, and I immediately reacted. I knocked on the window, to see if she would react...and she did. She looked at me, as if she didn't know me. Then I started gesturing and then she recognized me. Then we both stood there, gesturing things to eachother(it was hilarious), then I ran down and met her in person. And we talked and talked.

The crazy thing is that we behaved excactly like we would have if we had met like that for real. Thats why it was so real. And I thought it was all really happening.


I'd like to think that dreams have a purpose. That they have a meaning. I didnt quite so much before, but now...this changes things. If there was any purpose for why this girl suddenly popped into my dreams, I'd very much like to know why. The fact that she was absolutely gorgeous doesn't help at all.

Tried to track her down with the internet, but I was suprised at how limited the internet really was. Well... I just hope that I get to see her someday in real life again.

And I hope that an explanation will come sooner or later as why she was in my dream. Could be a sign of something... who knows.


Anyways I just wanted to share this peculiar experience with you folks. Have a pleasent sunday!

"Two days to reincarnation"

Hmm

I bet you're wondering about the title for tonights post.

It's a quote. From where doesn't matter. Its just something that caught my eye.

They say that you become strong as a person, if you test yourself. Step over boundries in yourself, set yourself through difficult situations. Just mentally and physically challenge yourself.

That way you learn more about yourself, what you're capable of and not. Also as I said, it's an opportunity to grow as a person. Get some perspective.


What if... you were able to close yourself, mentally, and just focus on simple things. Do extremely basic things. Eating, sleeping, and other daily "must-do's". And just thinking straight. Close everything else out. Just doing the things that keeps you alive and breathing.

Not only would it be an interesting experiment(dangerous maybe), but it would require the time to do it of course. Since time is a thing I don't have(work), maybe you could try and make some adjustments and still be able to the experiment.

I am in the mood of testing myself, see what I'm capable of and not. See if I can grow as a person.

Theese are all speculations of course. I'm not set on anything yet. But just thinkin out loud makes it easier to think... if that makes any sense.

Well... I don't really know yet what I could do. Considering the lack of that kind of time. But I'm sure i'll think of something.



Well I think thats all for today. Gotta get up early tomorrow unfortunately so i'm gonna get some sacktime!

Hope you all have a pleasant Friday night, and tomorrow a crazy saturday!

I'll get back on sunday I hope.

Peace out...no War Out. Hah.
