Sounds Great Neverending, I look forward to tuning in when I'm not watching horror movies...

heck yes.
i very much am looking forward to listening throughout the season.

Thanks guys!

Man, I am stoked - just started listening to your stuff recently and I'm totally hooked. Sounds to me like this'll be one badass month - I'm pumped!

I had never actually listened until the HDC Awards. Now I listen every time I get on here. Thanks NE:p

Just another one of the growing list of things that has come to make this forum so special.

Awesome, guys! Thanks!

Do you do commentary for other special HDC events, or just the yearly Horries? I think the last time I'd had so much fun on INTERNETz was when we composed the Hidden Gems list, and your commentary was a big part of it.

I don't think that was me...

But I did do commentaries of our trivia matches we were having here.

I'll be listening all day at work....helps pass the time. I hear some obscure stuff that I haven't heard since I was but a wee newb.

The commentaries on the trivia matches were great.
