I didn't want to muddle up the Zmey profile page anymore, but the conversation between Kyzer and theicwguy over Tugarin's entrance theme reminded me just how ungodly obsessed I was with Slipknot some 15-16 years ago. My first e-fed character over in the AFRWF used ST/Iowa-era Corey Taylor as a pic base, and I'm sure I used some song or another of theirs as an entrance for him, but that's a detail long lost to the sands of time. Anyway, I threw on my Slipknot collection this morning for a minute or so trying to find my own contribution to the subject at hand of a viable Slipknot song that Tugarin could have used, and my only takeaway was that short of those fleeting moments where I slip backward into a bit of adolescent rage (where I'm much more likely to throw on some sort of Rob Lind offering these days than anything else), I guess I'm sort of long past my Slipknot phase. I dug the last album and all, but to be fair, I also haven't put it on since it came out, either. Time's a b*tch, kids. I honestly have never cared too much for Slipknot. That is probably why I never found anything that I liked that I wanted to use for Zmey. My preferences in music have gotten much more narrow as I get older. I used to try and listen to everything and pretty much enjoy everything, not so much now. |

During my whole Slipknot obsessed age, I'd actively shut out most anything that didn't fit that sort of mold, and that held true even as I got older for a bit and kinda graduated into punk rock and all that. Somewhere along the way I lost a personal filter or just stopped caring about some fanaticized sense of credibility to what I listen to. If I digs it, I listens. That leads to really weird shuffle sessions, but it always keeps my passengers on their toes. |

Hey Deep Figure Value, I thought you'd like to know. Penguin Books is holding a contest to give away a collection of 100 books everyone should read. Your favorite book The Outsiders made the list. My favorite book Dune also made the list. |

Now I stick to like the same four Pandora stations and that is about it. |

I've never really used it, at least in the last five years since I quit my job at the library where I could have headphones in. I'm driving from Pittsburgh to Brooklyn with a buddy at the end of the month and we have similar music tastes, but I'm not good with setting that crap up, nor do I know how good it is on data. |

No clue what it uses in data since I have an unlimited plan. All you do is pick a band or song then it will play whatever it deems similar to the initial song. Then just thumbs up what songs you like and it builds from there. |

You create a station of either a certain band/artist and the station will play similar sounding music. Ex - if your create a station of Rage Against the Machine, you'll get political, funk, metal-type music. Before going with Premium, I would use it all the time at work and had no problems with it on data. |

If I may add to the initial conversation, I personally would've have gone with the song 'Iowa'. Sure, it's a 15 minute song BUT it's slow, dark and brooding and if you believe the story of how that song was recorded, disturbing - I think it fits Zmey perfectly.

I can get that I guess. I didn't really want a metalish song for Zmey. I think the techno electronic sound of the song fits what I picture in my head for his entrance. The lyrics of the song I picked are definitely dark. |

Frank Lynn's entrance music is 44 f'n minutes long! 15 minutes is nothing. |

Kinda like Bagan's theme from Super Godzilla.

Sometimes, I randomly decide to go to Smackdown the morning of the show when I stumble across decent seats for $25.

I have never been to a WWE ppv but every other show from them I have gone to has been a disappointment. I probably wouldn't think that if I only spent $25 dollars on tickets though. I am definitely getting tickets to go see MLW in Ft. Lauderdale since they are bringing back Wargames. |
