    Our neighbour's house stood in flames!! Also the trees surrounding it. We live in the countryside here, and the forrests surround us from three sides. So it was very likely the fire might creep up the road (neighbours are 200m down the road) -- and set our horse stables on fire,too.
    So we ran out of the arena and drove home as fast as possible.
    To make things short, twelve firefighter cars from four units were there. The fire in the wood was soon under control and stopped before it reached our barn.
    No person was seriously injured! Thank goodness!!
    But our neighbour's house burned down from roof to basement. Firefighters still working there now, it is almost 10am in the morning now. They were there all night.
    A whole family home destroyed. We know them for 25+ years. A sad day it was. who cares about football in such a moment


    So sorry for your neighbours/friends, that must be really tough. But among such sadness, at least nobody got injured or killed - that's the best thing that you can think of now. And well, so glad it didn't reach your house or stables, that would have been terrible too. Is the reason for the fire known already?

    So you are cover band? Any own songs? Not that I'm complaining, pretty nice stuff you play... No Lights On The Horizon?
    Right now, we are a cover band, but we are also writing our own stuff. Hhaah No Lights On The Horizon, my dad always says that.
  3. Just picked up a vinyl copy of Regatta de Blanc by the police and CD copies of Zooropa, Pop, and Listen Like Thieves and Kick by INXS. All for under $20

    After an exhausting long week, I know what I'll be doing. And I'll finish Pato's album of the week (Sorry Pato, I got distracted)
  4. Regatta de Blanc! Walking On The Moon is my favourite Police song.
  5. Test has worked.
  6. That's one of my favorites too, I also love Message in a Bottle.
  7. Is there someone here who can draw something similar to this?:
  8. I wish bands would release physical singles with B-sides again.
