Also added to this has been 2 extra dates in London (22nd & 23rd of June) and one extra date in both Manchester and Glasgow (27th of June and 3rd of July respectively). At the time of me writing this only the last date in London and the 2nd dates in Manchester and Glasgow are still available for the price of £25 + booking fees of £7.80 which is a grand total of €45! They won’t last much longer though even at those high prices!
Is this legit???!! It’s happened to another member too. Is it really the RIAA or whoever managed to DDos the What servers?? Even if it isn’t the RIAA, this is a horrendous breach of security on the part of what.cd, some hacker group (or maybe even the actual RIAA) are running around with a lot of email addresses..
We have recently been investigating the activities of the users of the
site http://www.what.cd/ and we have found that this site exists for the
sole purpose of music piracy.
Pirating music is a criminal offence and we believe it should be obvious
to you that the results outweigh the benefits - hard working artists
won’t be rewarded for their work and will stop producing music,
ultimately leading to a severely reduced selection of music both in the
shops and for download.
The RIAA had hoped that the disabling by the police of the large illegal
music site, Oink.cd, would stop a lot of people from engaging in piracy,
as they don’t want to be seen as criminals. However, this appears to
not be the case, as two large new sites have sprung up in its place.
This email is the final warning to all of you who were members of Oink.cd and are current members of What.cd. If we find you to be
committing any more criminal acts of piracy then we will have to press
charges against you, as representatives of the major record companies of
America.
Coll Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is out on Friday for the Xbox 360 and I can’t wait. I was part of the multiplayer Beta around the time Halo 3 was released and I honestly had no interest in playing Halo and played hours and hours of COD4. The game itself is shaping up to be a corker with loads of review sites giving it rave reviews. This may actually be game of the year contender, unlike Halo 3 simply is just not fun to play anymore online with all the Americans destroying you as soon as you start a map. Expect to see me online with this on Saturday night.. My xbox live gamer tag is ‘readysteadyjedi’ if anyone wants to challenge me!
Reviews:
The Official Xbox USA & UK mags gave it 10/10 and 9/10 respectively
Well its now two days after the fact and I’m still not sure if I was at a good gig or not! There was only 3 members of Animal Collective (AC) playing (Deakin has left for a year or so) and the whole way through Avey Tare wasn’t singing at all, leaving it to Panda Bear to sing the majority of the songs. As a whole we were treated to abstract electronic renditions of most of their tracks and none of them were recognisable barring ‘Chores’ from Strawberry Jam which to be honest was the only track I recognised all night.
I have a feeling that this newer version of AC is the way that they are moving forward now, as the band are about a year ahead of the albums they release expect the next album they release to be a dense sample driven electronic one. The most obvious indication of this was after an hour performing Geologist explained to the crowd that Avey had picked up a flu so couldn’t sing at all and so to make up for it Panda Bear was going to play a few of his solo tracks which are just straight up dance/electronic stuff with no live instruments at all. All in all I was slightly disappointed by the gig having paid close to 50 euros to get there (my own fault, I lost my ticket so had to buy a new one) and the less said about Islaja murdering her guitar the better I think..
Below is a video of the gig (proper photos from myself will be coming soon). Be warned, make sure your sound is down while listening to this, its quite loud.
