I love the song, I think its the best track off the album next to Awake and Alive and Lucy. But I looked at youtube views for the video online and it was around 560 million. That would make it bigger (and in some cases much bigger) than Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle), Last Resort, Animal I Have Become, BYOB, Diary of Jane, Crawling, Bodies, The Middle, Headstrong, My Own Worst Enemy, Through the Fire and Flames, American Idiot, and Papercut in terms of views just to give some examples. In fact right now the video is sitting just below Aerials by System of a Down in terms of views. Whenever I play it for a buddy they're like "Oh yeah I've heard that song before I think" but the others would just have almost instant recognition.

I swear I never hear it in stores or when I'm out like some of those songs are and I rarely hear it brought up when people talk about 2000's rock or even played on rock stations. Maybe I've just been sitting under a rock since I was very young when the song came out. Was it really that much of a phenomenon even moreso than something like American Idiot or Papercut or Rollin? I mean surely not, but the view count is just crazy

Hey guys! I'm a Baylor senior living at UParks, and I'm offering private piano lessons for anyone who's wanted to learn but doesn't know where to start.

From your first lesson, we'll start working on a song YOU choose. I'll teach you how to play by ear and memory, with no sheet music or previous musical experience required. You could have never touched an instrument before and that's completely fine.

I've taught this way before with students from my youth group when I was younger. Within their first hour, I've had students playing recognizable arrangements of songs they'd picked themselves from artists like Limp Bizkit, The Beatles, Nickelback, Taylor Swift, AC/DC, Slipknot, Bon Jovi, Skillet, and 3 Doors Down. One guy even learned songs from video games like Mega Man and Sonic. I'm happy to work with pretty much whatever music you're interested in.

Lessons can be at my apartment at University Parks or wherever suitable location you would like, and I have a keyboard here, so you don't need to own or bring anything to get started!

If you're interested, just send me a message with a couple songs you'd love to learn. My schedule is pretty flexible, and we can find a time that works.

RATES: $25 for a 45 minute lesson

Refer someone who books and completes a lesson -> $10 off your next lesson

EDIT: I'm also happy to travel to you on campus for no additional charge! My keyboard is portable, so if you have a suitable space with an outlet, I can bring everything needed for the lesson.

Additionally, if you take your first lesson and don't feel like it was worthwhile, just let me know and I'll refund the full lesson price. No worries, and no hard feelings.

Neither side is given any instruction on how to operate their respective vehicles but both are fueled up and turned on. The goal is to see who can complete one full lap of the Daytona 500 the fastest.

ROUND 1: Dale in T and teen in the Dodge ROUND 2: Dale gets upgraded to a Ford Pinto ROUND 3: Dale gets a stock car of his choice from the 1960's

For reference I'm a 21 year old dude so I never got to see them in their prime with Bon or Malcom or even Phil and Cliff. I got to see them in San Antonio and they absolutely rocked my socks off. Amazing set, amazing performance, I absolutely loved every single second of it. Them sounding off the cannons in for those about to rock was one of the coolest moments of my entire life. I have a decent bit of cash from side hustles and they're coming to Houston for probably their last show ever in Texas. Maybe thinking I could swing pit tickets this time, but I also kind of want to save up to see Guns N Roses, Iron Maiden, and a couple other bands this year and I dont want to cheapen the memory.

Would you guys say its worth seeing them twice and getting the pit atmosphere or did I essentially see all there is to see? Only since this is probably the last time.

Going into this show I really wasn't sure what to expect since the two remaining og members Buck Dharma and Eric Bloom are as old as my grandpa but oh man what a show. They sounded just like the album and I think, at least vocally, performed better than ACDC who I saw a few weeks ago despite being a little older. Don't Fear the Reaper was amazing, but so were their other lesser known hits like Hot Rails To Hell, Then Came the Days of May and Godzilla. A lot of their discography I couldn't get into until I saw Dharma lighting the guitar on fire live. The other members were great too.

The only problem I had was they had practically no merch. They had one shirt which was really cool and I'm glad I got (Had a reaper on the front for the 50th anniversary of Agents of Fortune), but they sold out almost immediately and that was the only thing they had. The venue was great too. I'm glad I got to see them at least once before they innevitably retire in a few years. All in all an amazing show, and I'm off to see TobyMac next then Breaking Benjamin!

I've already got my ticket and I'm super pumped to see the band August 1st at the Stafford Centre. Even though I'm a young guy and I mainly just know their hits like Psychic Wars and Burnin' for you I'm there to hear something new and looking forward to Reaper live since its my favorite song ever.

I do like to get merch at shows though, and I've seen from looking online merch is sparse when going to these shows. I would honestly be cool with any shirt, but I'm just wondering what it looked like when you went recently to see them and if I need to arrive pretty early to get anything. Thanks guys.

Hey everyone!

I've been playing guitar and piano/keyboard for a few years, and I'm looking for people who'd be interested in starting a band next semester. Or if your band needs a rhythm guitarist or keyboardist, I'd love to connect.

I'm interested in doing anything like writing original music, playing covers, jamming, performing live, or whatever sounds fun. I've always been really into the nu metal style of bands like Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, P.O.D., and Papa Roach, or punk style stuff like The Offspring but I'm really into any rock genre.

I mostly play by ear, write my own music, and have some recorded riffs and a concept album in the works if you'd like to hear what I'm working on.

If you're interested, feel free to send me a message!

God bless!

Hey there guys. I really loved that concert when I was able to go in the spring to close out my semester. My grandpa was a big willie nelson fan in the 60s and 70s but was just unable to physically go. Does anyone out there have a video recording or archive of the show? Thanks!

I just got back from my first ever Christian concert seeing Stryper live. I was able to get barricade and it was really awesome to see a metal act with explicitly Christian lyrics. For the past few weeks I've been listening to a bunch of Christian bands and it made me realize there's a lot more to Christian music than simple chord progression worship music. Currently I listen to: P.O.D, Skillet, Anberlin, Red, Stryper, Thousand Foot Krutch, DC Talk, Switchfoot, Decyfer Down, Flyleaf, Demon Hunter, Disciple, Jars of Clay, and Soul Embraced. All completely different styles of music but Christian none the same (I'm pretty sure most of these bands are identified as explicitly Christian).

That's not to even mention some of the secular bands out there with Christian members or theming like Creed, Paramore, Evanescence, Brad Arnold of 3 Doors Down (R.I.P), Lifehouse, August Burns Red, 21 Pilots, etc.

Edit: And I forgot to mention Lecrae and GRITS as well. Both great acts Edit 2: Another one to add to that second category is Ozzy Osbourne who I believe was a Methodist
