I hope you feel better soon, blackbeat! My aunt had kidney stones very recently—she was in so much pain that she thought she was having a heart attack or something. She scared the piss out of her coworkers. Hopefully you recover soon—I know how painful they can be, even though I've (thankfully) never experienced them myself!
As for the ATRL upgrade, I don't know how I feel about this. I'm excited for the upgrade, but I have a bad feeling that it's going to be an absolute mess. It's long overdue, so I'm glad we're getting one, but I don't know why they wouldn't archive this forum or something so it's still accessible. Or keep this forum and change the domain for the new ATRL.... I don't know. I'm not a technology wizard, hence why I don't do stuff like this, but it sucks that there won't be any record of this forum after the upgrade.
As for the "Right as Rain" promo CD, Ichi, you and I have already discussed this, but I think it's amazing!
After doing some more research, I've come to the conclusion that "Right as Rain" was basically a promotional single for
19 because it was sent to radios, but its actual release as a single was canned in favor of "Cold Shoulder" at the last minute.
Also, anti-bitch, I LOVE your new avi and signature!
The "Don't You Remember" visuals were my favorite from the whole tour. During that live performance, I was mostly focused on the background. It was just stunning. I really hope we get high quality videos of all the background stuff at some point. Where are all of the stills from them coming from?
