Really, I am a guitarist by trade (about 19 years). I started messing around with the bass around 1999 or so. Found some more pictures ... -

Why do Americans sue for EVERYTHING?!
CoasterFanatic replied to MWkc's topic in Random, Random, Random
Because we're greedy like that. Next question. -

For somewhere around a year now, I have been playing with a couple of friends. Together we play little shows around town and some surrounding areas. Last night, we played "The Border" in Steubenville, OH. Even though Rock and Roll and Mexican Restaraunt don't seem like the greatest combination, the gig ended up being a pretty good one. Here are some pictures from the show. Be sure to check out our MySpace page if you get really bored.

Favorite Coaster at Cedar Point?
CoasterFanatic replied to pkdcoaster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow. A lot more people have mentioned Gemini than I would have imagined. I always thought I was alone on that one. It is a great ride and easily one of the most accessible in a park that is well know for it's wait times. -
While I would like to see them picked up by an American Company (which looks to happen under either scenario), It saddens me because of the jobs in Latrobe that wil go bye-bye. Plus ... no more Rolling Rock Town Fair or Garage Rock. Myrtle Beach 2005

Six Flags Magic Mountain.
CoasterFanatic replied to simon155's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Super short review (Take it for what it's worth) Batman The Ride Steel: Inverted Cool, just like all the rest Canyon Blaster Steel Never whored this one, so I can't tell you Colossus: Wooden Not much to talk about. Pretty uneventful Déjà Vu Steel Pretty much always broke, so don't worry about it Flashback Steel World largest paperweight Gold Rusher Steel Typical Arrow Mine-Train. Nice little ride for it's day Goliath Steel Probably the best ride in the park. No real airtime to speak of, but it does have a cool little floater hill. This ride is all about the G-Force. Goliath Jr. Steel Unless you are three apples high, you won't be riding this one Ninja Steel: Suspended One of the better suspendeds (which probably doesn't say a whole lot). It is closed now, but i assume it will reopen once Tatsu is all set or shortly after. Psyclone Wooden Crap. Revolution Steel Uncomfortable restraints, crappy visibility, and rediculously braked. Might be the worst Anton coaster out there. From what I hear, it was once the tits. Riddler's Revenge Steel: Stand-Up My absolute favorite standup. You will probably want to hit it early as it gets pretty crowded. Scream Steel: Floorless A pretty general B&M layout themed to a parking lot. Good ride, but probably the worst coaster placement ever. Superman The Escape Steel One-trick pony. Still cool. Bring a banana and pretend you are filming one of those cool Discovery shows Viper Steel Very similar to the other giant Arrows (GASM, Steel Phantom, Shockwave, etc). Cool ride, but rough if you are a small fry. Try to stick around the third row for a reasonably smooth ride. X Steel: Fourth Dimension This should be the first ride you go to (provided that it is operating). The ride experience may not be the best, but it will be unlike anything else you have ever ridden. Definately a must ride ... at least once. -

HELP, please could someone help me
CoasterFanatic replied to martinb's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Paul, I am so out of touch with Power Tools that I never even knew that the resize plug-in existed. That thing is pretty sweet and will save me a ton of time. Thanks! -

With all the Victory Beers that are heading into California this month, Wally is going to start to think that he has his own personal distributor. So how much was the beer in the mini-bar. My guess is $6. // Just drank my Anchor Small Beer last night and it was most excellent -
What's your closest coaster?
CoasterFanatic replied to FishyFish's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Fiesta Express at Fun Fore All in Cranberry, PA. About 40 miles from my house and 3 miles from where I work. The biggest kicker ... I still haven't ridden it. -

Personal guideline for me: Must coast up a hill. However, this does make for some interesting results. Under this guideline: Not a coaster Any Fabbri BatFlyer Any Powered Coaster Any 1st Gen Drop Tower Is a coaster Pretzel Dark Rides Dudley DooRight Any Arrow that still has a dip (Kennywood is the only one I can think of)

NEWS FLASH! You can't trim a GCI. The only straight track is the low-lying areas, lift and station. -

Dewthedew, Welcome to the site. First you may want to use the search function to see if a similar question has already been asked. If it hasn't, I would suggest posting your question as a new thread in the "Ask Alvey" forum. It probably isn't a good idea to "Threadjack" a TR to do this. -
^ And we can't thank you enough for that. After all, it is kind of a pain in the ass 3-step process.
