Re: Death YEEEAAAAH! AMÜRICKA! Fuck yeah!

[Idlewilde]

it freaks me out to think of frozen people...perhaps I want to be cremated

[RelentlessOblivion]

I don't like the idea of being buried in the ground so I'll be cremated when I die and request my ashes be spread at Wacken Open Air

If I had a choice in the matter (being dead, it wouldn't really make a difference), I just wouldn't want to be wasted. I would prefer to have all of my usable organs harvested to give to people that could use them when I'm done, and then be buried, but not in a coffin. I would rather be buried in the ground and have my body become of use to the soil, enriching it as I decay. Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

Many metalheads will have you on their shoes, they'll mumble "I can't scrap that Murph out of my boots!"

[RelentlessOblivion]

Actually that's assuming there still is a Wacken when I die, since I hope that doesn't happen for a great many years

This reminds me of the movie Thunderstruck!

the word Thunderstuck reminds me of the song Thunderstruck

I take it you have never seen it?, its an Australian movie about a bunch of ACDC loving mates taking their friends ashes to scatter them in Fremantle where Bon Scott is buried.

[RelentlessOblivion]

I think I've seen part of it but never bothered catching the whole thing seems very Bill & Ted

[Idlewilde]

I haven't seen the film as well but for sure I've heard of it. I should check it out someday. And Murph be positive not only for you but for Wacken as well, it should stick around for many many long years I hope!

[RelentlessOblivion]

I'm plenty positive about me less certain about Wacken because fewer and fewer people are actually buying music, favouring illegal downloads instead which means bands make less money making it less fiscally responsible for them to tour or play festivals consequently causing those festivals to die as they are unable to secure artists to play them.

[Spooks]

I would like to believe there is an afterlife I want to buried in one of those woodland burial sites and a tree planted (not literally) on my head. I was only talking about this the other night with my mate at work as she wants cremated and then turned into earrings ( I know like wtf ) and I said I wanted to be in a cardboard coffin, naked, the same way I arrived kicking and screaming into this world.

[RelentlessOblivion]

for me it's either cremated and my ashes spread at Wacken Open Air or viking funeral despite there being nothing viking about me

[Scullicon]

Death by fire is the absolute best choice i think too. But i would want it to be on an open pyre so the ceremony would be during and not afterwards as a cremation.

[RelentlessOblivion]

I think a viking-style funeral would be a fitting way to send off any metalhead I'm more interested in the legacy I shall leave behind though I hope I don't end my life disappointed with my accomplishments

[Vanessa M Stokes]

I always joke with my family that I have stated in my will that I am to be stuffed, and then placed in the family room to terrify generations of future grand/great grandchildren.

When I first went there it was sold out in April, then in February, then around New Year...As far as I remember this year it was sold out around November.On the other hands bands started to be less and less attractive for me, but we'll see what next year will bring. So yeah, I suppose Wacken will stay alive for a while!

[RelentlessOblivion]

bands that tour Australia generally do well because we get so few of them coming down here but the local festival is pure garbage so it doesn't do as well. suppose you knew the manner in which you would die, do you thinkg that would make your life easier or harder?

[Idlewilde]

I don't know, I suppose it depends on the way I'll die. For example drowning makes me freak out, and the fact to know something is coming makes me more anxious-when I'm surprised I deal better with the situation, not that you can really "deal" with that. Well...I think I want that life surprises me more, so let's keep it the way it is. What about you Murph?

[RelentlessOblivion]

I think knowing how you're going to die would be agony. It would be like Vlad the Impaler's favourite mental torture leaving the pike sitting in front of your cell for you to stare at until he decided it was time for your execution. No I would much rather not know how the end will come.

[Viking]

I believe in the norse gods. If you die in battle, you either go to Valhalla or Freya's hall. If you die a normal death, you go to the underworld where Hel resides. Niflheim is reserved for the wicked.

[orcslayr23]

I've very recently discovered about myself that I don't think I believe in a god or an afterlife. Although my beliefs aren't fully formed yet, it just seems to me that humans want explanations for the unexplainable and a way to conquer their fear of death, and so they created gods with afterlives. I do find religion very interesting but I think religion is something you have to believe with your heart and soul and not something you believe in because your parents told you. I'm more of a 'seeing is believing' kind of person and i've never had an experience that's made me believe in a god. It's kind of a sad way to look at life I guess, like you'll never see your loved ones again once they die and the finality of death. Again this is all easy for me to say when i'm young, but who knows? I am very open to the possibility of a god, but again it's not something I can just believe in because someone tells me or something I try to force myself to believe.
