At what point do you consider someone to no longer be a newbie?

When you become old like me and few others here!

I know several newbies have come to this board in the last month and I have yet to welcome them (I have been less and less motivated to post on the HOM-not anything against anybody but I'm getting tired of working 7 days a week and have just been too lazy to do any significant posting). So in order not to be seen rude I want to take the time to welcome all those I have yet to welcome. Once I procure a day off again I will be here more often (bad news for those who don't like me Razz

).

Hey Manny, I'm in Bartow, about 45 minutes from you. I go to school in Tampa. Nice to have a local on the board! Smile

Tampa, cool! I used to live there. I caught a lot of bands at Rubys.Lots of Nasty Savage & Avitar gigs.
It's a long shot but were any of you at the Savatage / Zebra show back in '83? I believe it was Avitars first show as Savatage. Great night!

That would have been awesome, but I was 9 in 1983. Smile

Hello Folks,

My name is Phil, I am from Rio Rancho New Mexico. I've been a huge rock fan since discovering Alice Cooper, KISS, and Ted Nugent when I was in the 4th grade back in 1975. I listen to all kinds of music but my heart is really with Hard Rock or Metal music.

This is a cool forum, I have a good time reading from the different topics and seeing all the different opinions. I've picked up some cool new music from being here too.

Thanks

Guest

welcome skullsmasher! Eventually the entire town of Rio Rancho will be members of this board. It's like Scott has put up banners all over town advertising this place. Smile

It's funny that I wasn't really looking for a place like this. I just did a google search for a current priest setlist and someone had posted one through this site. I just got to looking around to see what else was here and liked what I saw and stayed. I really had no idea that there was a Rio Rancho connection until a bit later.

No I did not see that show but I did see them as Avitar in Mr. T's Club 19 back in 83, I even had a vinyl copy of the 95 ynf comp that had an early recording of theirs under that name but I stupidly got rid of it one year

Hey whats up everyone, I actually came to this board to get an outside view on something after me an my friends and a debate on the Core genres vs More traditional stuff and Death. I dont post a ton but I am going to try to more. I really love all types of metal all of it is entertaing on one way or another. I am really partial to Death/Thrash/Metalcore/Deathcore when it comes to metal. I also dig classic rock alot, stuff such as Boston, Zepplin, The Who, all the stuff everyone knows and loves along with some guilty pleasures such as Journey, and Molly Hatchet. The biggest thing I get smurf poo for is being a Slipknot fan (someone tell me Iowa did not kick ass). I am also a big loyalist, if a band first two albums are good then I am hooked and will buy everything they put out.

Fav Bands:3 Inches of Blood, Between the Buried and Me, The Acacia Strain, Black Dahlia Murder, Job for a Cowboy, Chimaira, Metallica, Slayer, Cryptopsy (New and Old), Hatebreed even though most say they are not metal, and the list goes on and on. If you throw music at me that contains somewhat of an aggressive tone, chances are that I will like it.
