Super 8

It is nice to see them all together again. I'm glad they've all survived the craziness of their superstardom at such young ages, and their drug addictions and whatnot. I don't think they are above using Autotune at all. The real talent in that band has always been John Taylor's bass and Nick Rhoads' keyboard work. LeBon makes a great frontman, but his vocals have never been anything special. However, I do remember him -at least I assume it was him- hitting some really high notes, and holding them at the end of "Ordinary World". I was impressed with that. I've always had a special place for Duran Duran though. I love that a band that visual and image conscious can still be completely homegrown, play all their own instruments, and write their own songs. And their old videos are still among my favorites, especially Hungry Like The Wolf".

I admit to being a packrat. I have a nasty habit of forming attachments to things. I am slowly getting better about it. My wife has watched as I've thrown some stuff out while wincing the whole time. It's not good. Regarding space however, I could really use more. But I also have two small -but growing- children. I'd really like to have a basement studio. Something big enough for my drums. I haven't played my drums at home in many years....not since my kids were born. I'd also like room to have people over to jam. It would be great to have some other things too, but I understand where this thread is going. The idea that having more will somehow lead to fulfillment is complete nonesense.
