1000!!!!

[Spanner]

Since I have been deprived of my CDs... (stupid military taking forever to deliver my stuff) I have been listening to all my Megaman MP3s which include the old NES/SNES versions as well as various remixes (of which I am VERY picky). I have more videogame MP3s than anything else on my computer.

I don't actually own any soundtracks as o1d 5k00l as NES era games, but I definitely agree that they had a lot of great tunes. Hmmm... Blaster Master... *Drifts off into pleasant reminiscence.*

*Snaps back to reality* Erm, anyway, I can still remember and hum almost anything from Mega Man 2, as well as several other NES games. I haven't really looked into many video game remixes, though. I DID buy the Majestic Mix CDs (a collection mostly consisting of remixes of Final Fantasy tunes), and my brother has a collection of old NES tunes performed by grunge guitar and precussion (there's an EXCELLENT remix of the title theme for Metroid there, and some other good stuff as well), but I forget the name of the artist.

and I feel another bishi robot utopia rant coming on... must not lust after nonexistant humanoid robots...

Considering the number of Ifurita enthusiasts here, I seriously doubt there are many here with the right to call you on that.

All right! We got a full blown music discussion going here, which is just the way I like it.

While we're at it... I haven't actually been to that many live concerts, and given my current situation, it's going to be awhile before I go to any more.  But, anyway, here's another obsessive-compulsive list:

I'd also like to mention/brag that I am the proud owner of, not one, but two tickets autographed by John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants  

Considering the number of Ifurita enthusiasts here, I seriously doubt there are many here with the right to call you on that  

   

*ahem*  So, Saucer... nice weather we're having, huh?

Heh heh, actually it's funny how people always assume I'd simple be happier with Ifurita and someone just like her. I suppose it must seem like I'm obssesed. And, I suppose I am to a certain degree. Yes, I love Ifurita. But no more than anyone else loves their favorite chara from their favorite book, film, anime or whatever. Not in the way I could ever love a real woman. None the less, it's only normal for a man to eyeball and get excited over other women, real, animated or otherwise.  

Oh yeah, ummm....... remixes. In no particular order:

Alex Kidd in Miracle World - Sugar High
Altered Beast - The Fallen's Grave
Doom - Doomed E1L8 Boss
Golden Axe - Death Adder Trance
Moon Patrol - Road To Tyco Station
Outrun - Instant
Panzer Dragoon Orta - More Than A Weapon
Quartet - Summer Trance
Shenmue - Ryo's Renshuu
Super Street Fighter 2 - Cammy by Night

I could do a whole 'nother top ten souly dedicated to Street Fighter II remixes.

That's pretty excellent!

Heh my friend David likes to brag that he was almost killed by John Flansburgh. ^_^;

He went to a TMBG concert a few years back and he was kinda standing around...next thing he knew John Flansburgh comes running by, nearly knocking him over being chased by about 5 fan girls. ^_^; So David comes back from the concert and says, "GUESS WHAT?! I WAS ALMOST KILLED BY JOHN FLANSBURGH!!!!" It was pretty funny.

I love TMBG. They are so odd ^_^ I personally find "The Statue Got Me High" high highly amusing.

I like "Cage and Aquarium."  

And that other song, something about; "He toured the world with a heavy metal band..."

TMBG used to have this thing where you call up a phone number and they had a diferent short song (like 1 minute long) every day. I don't think they do that any more though.

Man, I've logged in at least three times today.  Gotta cool my heels, here  

And that other song, something about; "He toured the world with a heavy metal band..."

But they ran out of gas-- the plane can never land    That's "Shoehorn With Teeth."  It's a scream when TMBG play it live.  They bring out a "solid gold nickel-plated" glockenspiel, and the drummer comes up front to play the one-note glockenspiel solo, always to loud applause.
