    Plus I don't own a 100 watt anmp. Several 50 watters though
    ;)

     

    50 watts is *NOT* half as loud as a 100 :)

     

    I guess maybe we should switch to communism, eh?

     

    One tooth brush per person and you can't touch a musical instrument unless you're in the military band :thu:

    Is there a worse singer than James Labrie?

    BTW, Hansi rules. He's not perfect pitch-wise either, but he's a damn lot better than Labrie is. What I love abot Hansi's singing though, is how he's improved so much over the years. He was pretty bollocks in the beginning, but now he's one of the top metal vocalists around, with a very distinct, recognisable voice of his own.
    :)

     

    Nightfall in Middle Earth is a masterpiece. They haven't since put anything out that's remotely as good though :(

    I agree. I don't understand the comments about his range either, f he does have it, I haven't heard it yet. I'm no singer and I can hit 2 octaves + 4-5 notes (excluding falsetto). I don't think that's anything special. (Listen to Hansi Kursch of Blind Guardian :eek: freakish, that guy...)

     

    That said, he is really good IMO for the slower stuff like Hollow Years, Wait for Sleep, Space-dye Vest etc. However, he seems to be trying to sing classical when he should be "screaming," which does not go well with the music. Again, that's only my opinion. And no, I don't mean hardcore or emo type screaming, but rather the way Chris Cornell does it.

     

    I agree about Rudess also. Kevin Moore was probably the most talented songwriter in DT.
