Re: Possible Improvements to the New Blood Stage
My heats were scored 50% by the paying public and 50% by judges (2 or 3 and all involved in bands/metal scene). This tends to ensure that a less able band with lots of friends are not more likely to go through to the final than a more able band with a smaller local following. I also used a voting sy...

Re: Possible Improvements to the New Blood Stage
Honestly, I reckon that's the issue, I mean, I don't know much about Extreme Metal, so I can't really talk about that, but I do that in my area, there is like one melodic band for every 8 extreme bands, and I can name about 5 or 6 melodic bands in this area that are active. If the one melodic band ...

Re: Possible Improvements to the New Blood Stage
Well, of the five bands that have got through M2TM East Midlands over the past 3 years, we have seen Incinery (thrash), Airstryke (glam), Line Of Fire (Southern/stoner/hard rock), Cruel Humanity (Black Metal) and Cacodaemonic (Blackened Death Metal). Airstryke in particular were as far from being a ...

Re: Possible Improvements to the New Blood Stage
I don't want to give the name of the person who told me which might sound like a cop out but their band did win and were told by the main man himself. I'm a reasonable guy and I'm not afraid to eat humble pie, if I have been speaking out my anus I'll withdraw anything. Not trying to cause any offen...

Re: Possible Improvements to the New Blood Stage
We've entered the MTTM twice and got to the final twice (that's not a boast) so we've seen what goes on. The problem is, and I've had this confirmed by a very reliable source who shall remain unnamed, is that the vast majority of times the band has already been picked before the judge even steps th...

I think we should get a band with a really offensive band name to go for Eurovision. Would kill to hear Terry Wogan say "Anal Cunt" or something like that. United Kingdom - no points!

Re: What has made you happy today
Have managed to kick the nicotine habit. Not a single cigarette smoked since I threw my half full packet out of the window of my car on the evening of December 23rd. Have tried to give up before but have always failed. I know that I still have a long way to go (I first started smoking in 1983!) but ...

Re: What has made you happy today
Finally getting hold of a DAT player so I can transfer the old master tapes of my old band Cabala.
Lo and behold a MySpace site! We were never going to set the world alight but it was great fun!
