Hmmm, Shagrath. Tolkien had an Orc named Shagrat in the LotR. Coincidence?

Doubtful! There's also Shadowfax, which I'm sure not many of you have heard of. And David Arkenstone which, I'm sure must be his name however strange...

TheGodThatFailed I'd say Dimmu Borgir is black metal ;) Talking about Finnish bands with LotR themes do you know Battlelore? Awesome band you should check it out!

On another hand: NOOOO!

-I don't have to go to school wednesday april 27
-Finntroll is coming to the Netherlands at april 27
-There is NO train back after 23:39. With the concert starting around 20:30 I fear we'd miss a bit. On the other hand we'd have like 3 hours of fun (give or take a bit, planners say it's only a 4 minute walk from the station to the venue but I'd take 10 just to be sure)

Now I think the best option is go, hope they play fast and it's finished by then. The other is not going ( :( ) and last is sleeping at the train station or not sleeping and wait till 5:39AM for the next train. Problem is that I've got to be back before 9AM next morning to check my marks at school.

Could be he liked Shagrath from LotR when he chose this pseusonym?

I'm cold, its cold, and Canada's cold - and its been snowing for the past three days.

Hi all!

How are ya all doing? Anything new?

It's really #@*&ing cold, CD!! I just walked back from the library, and it sucked horribly bad. Drinking some coacoa, now, trying to get warm. I think my roomy's having troubles with his g/f, so that'll put a damper on the rest of this week. Oh well. I have loads of studying to do still, so I need to go. Later.

35 degrees F., here, and sunny. Which figures to 2 degrees Celsius, so it didn't freeze, yay.

Not going is never an option! [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

Many a time have concerts turned into all-night parties followed by early morning classes. Same problem here, getting into and out of Washington, D.C. In this case it's subway & bus schedules, but same thing.

Said at about midnight: "We're partying until lunchtime, guys!"

A friend of mine who we asked to go with us immediately called some friends if we couldn't stay the night at one of their houses [img]smile.gif[/img] She said it'd be easy to get some place. So I'm going to Finntroll!!!
