We could love DTB I'm sure, there's just no marketing for it down here. Everyone who hears about it gets into it, but the only way anyone hears about it is word of mouth.... ah forget it, I'll just move to France

Haha I missed out on seeing SYL last time there were here as I was too young for the gig, ever since then I've been waiting and waiting.... We should petition Inside Out or something I guess if we want to see The DTB, would that work?
Inside Out isn't the label for Aus. It's Roadrunner and likely all the petiitioning in the world won't get them to do it. Aus is not a great market for DTB. You love SYL but DTB is underappreciated. Now France, they love the DTB.

Yeah, we have some damn good tastes!

There's this band down here in Australia called Karnivool starting to blow up really big, playing sold out club shows across Australia, headlining to sometimes 1000+ people and about to get a record deal in US and Canada and Japan. And I also know for a fact that Devin is a huge influence on them having read interviews with them and chatted with them and what not. They supported SYL for one show in Perth back in 2002 I think it was. How about you get a band like them to do national support for DTB? They'd help drag in the crowds and help people get converted to the DTB cause. And I'm sure they would be honoured as all buggery to be opening for Devin, even though down here I guess they're the more popular band. Plus they'd be making contacts with you guys who are bigger overseas blah blah...
I guess that was more a of a hypothetical than an actual idea. Would that sort of thing happen often but? Sounds cool in theory...
Frankly, all I see on this forum lately is negativity and it is getting quite tedious. Between people bitching about Ozzfest (likely the biggest opportunity Devin has had since Vai, regardless of your opinion of the Osbournes), speculating stupidly about how much the new SYL will suck when no one has a clue what it will sound like, and how you want constant touring and if he's not touring, to be recording but not recording the wrong thing - what you all decide is right. Seriously people...

I dont know... there seems to be a lot of fan boydom on here too. You take the good with the bad I suppose.
But seriously, Tracy, you can't really be thinking that everyone is totally upset about SYL getting the ozzfest gig, and you cant seriously think that We think that the new SYL is going to sound like shit. can you? all of us. theres always going to be a few fucking douchebags who dont know there own very nice guy from a hole in the ground that are gonna come up with stupid bullshit speculation, its gonna happen, and theres nothing you can do aboot it... dont let it upset you, just let Devin prove them elitest douchebag sonsabitches WRONG.
now to you elitst douchebag assholes who dont know your own asshoel from a hole in the ground, and you know who are. stop whining.
Bring on the new SYL. Dev & crew, good luck, tear em a new one, and god dammit, make time to go home and MAKE BABIES WITH YOUR WIVES.
