Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02	They just announced today that system of a down is going to go on right before Ozzy at Ozzfest 2002. While I think they are a pretty cool band, I think that Ozzfest could get a much bigger band to be the Co-Headliner. This is the tour that had Pantera, Tool, Rob Zombie, and (as much as I don't like him) Manson in that spot. It seems like the tour is selling itself short of what it could be. Of course, it is possible that other bands on the tour will even it all out, but I think they need someone a little bigger to go on before Ozzy. Here is the Story "You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who cannot forgive yourself. It makes much more sense, to live in the present tense." - Pearl Jam

You tell me that nothing matters, You're just fucking scared You tell me that I'm better, You just hate yourself You tell me that you like her, You just wish you did You tell me that I make no difference, Well at least I'm fucking trying What the fuck have you done?

Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02	I would love to see Tool in that spot again. They are the most incredible and orignal band in that scene. I doubt it though, because they like to do their own thing. I have seen SOAD live and they're pretty cool, but I think that they lack what it takes to be in that spot. O well, I hope they prove me wrong.

Sleeper, keep telling yourself that 'size' doesn't matter. I try telling myself that too. Just don't be surprised if you are the only one that agrees with your theory ;) AIM: SmarterChild Write To Me Here I think it all started with the Declaration of Independence -- the idea that we had the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That pursuit is what took America from the revolution to the computer age in 200 years. But the progress has come at a price. The obvious being the people that were exploited to make it possible; the not so obvious being us, the first group of people that were given no obvious frontiers to conquer. We hear stories that about the good old days that don't seem to apply anymore. It's a generation gap that leaves us without role models. But the bright side is that without role models, there are no roles. Maybe that's what the 60s were all about -- getting rid of the roles. But what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, the choices become overwhelming. Sometimes it just makes everything feel hopeless. So we destroy our bodies in the search of an ideal. Try to salvage relationships that don't work. We feel we must do something, instead of doing something that we feel. It is the prison of self-imposed momentum, and the sad part is that we get used to it. It reminds me of a song I heard the other day. It's called "The Going Nowhere Fast." But the people I have met here have shown me another side of Nowhere. They've pointed out the beautiful irony that stagnation makes it easy to stop and smell the roses, if we just let it. What would we be if we had nothing to rebel against? Well we could finally be ourselves, the first group of people who stopped looking for the answers long enough to appreciate the questions. And all we have to do is to make our own Declaration of Independence. We can embrace the right to life and liberty by simply realizing that happiness exists -- not to pursue, but to accept. After that the only challenge would be to make sure with the rest of our lives that we weren't just another fad. I don't know, it's an idea. What do you think?

Psychopath Registered: Mar. 01	I too would love to see Tool do Ozzfest here in the states. They played severral Ozzfest shows in Europe during their summer tour. The reason they did their own thing last fall was because it was the first stadium tour that they had done since AEnima, plus it gave them a chance to show off Lateralus.

Hanger-On Registered: Feb. 01	it would fucking suck if filter played, no one at ozzfest would like them, much like last yaer with Craz E Town. Down is headlining the second stage, which will kick ass.i'd love to see BLS play again also see Zakk Wylid pull double duty and play with ozzy too "Television - teacher, mother, secret lover!"-Homer J.
