No. I try, but I try to keep up, but I don't have enough time. A lot of times I'll read a bit to see what's going on, but I won't post anything.

I do. Both the city and Man. U. But don't hate me if you support another club, they're the only one who has games shown in the US.

Hi phoenix which bass do you recomend that i get for beginners i really wanna learn how to play?
A: Answered by Phoenix on 10/15/02
It depends on your budget. I love the Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray 4 and 5 string basses. That's what I play. But there are also a lot of great basses for learning that are more affordable. The important thing is having a bass, and practicing, not what type of bass you're playing.

Q: Submitted on 10/15/02
can you give us a little hint as to how the next album will sound? is it in a similar vein to hybrid theory? or will it surprise us big time like reanimation?
A: Answered by Phoenix on 10/15/02
The next album is returning more to the sound of Hybrid Theory... but I still think it will be surprising. It's a bit darker and heavier than anything we've done before.

Q: Submitted on 10/15/02
What are you playing at?? this "new" reanimation album, guys its a remix of ur outstanding HYbrid Theory........ Fans want new songs.. I know about 30 people that have given up supporting you . we have waited so long for the 2nd smashing album then u bring out a remix. Your Fans arent happy.... arent they the ones who count!
A: Answered by Phoenix on 10/15/02
Wow, interesting question. For the record... (copy and paste this all over if you want), the remix album was a project that we did in between albums; not in lieu of a second, but in between the first and second. We wanted to explore the hip-hop, and electronic porions of our music, and at the same time work with some artists that we have respected and loved for a long time. Had we not done the remix album, the second studio album would not have been finished any sooner. We take a long time to write new songs... we are very picky, and we never want to do anything half-way. The beauty of Reanimation is that we were able to write and work on album 2 while it was being remixed by the remixers. If you don't like it, then you don't like it. Personally, I love it... I think it turned out great. And if you demand an album a year out of a band, then I'm sorry not to have met your required rate of production... but good things do come to those who wait.
