I'm with you on the "Kill your TV" I almost never watch it just about the only thing I use my TV for are watching movies. Beatles are way way to over rated and the only member I liked out the group was John Lennon. Poor ....... got shot in the back. I really feel bad for Michael Jackson those and his children cause when I was young I loved him. And all those people who came out after his death and said that the allegations they made were untrue. But non the less he will always be the king of pop and no one will ever be crowned with that title other then him. But didn't know that jay z and nas squashed their beef. Still laugh pretty hard when I hear nas lyrics that he used on jay z those. All of it done to sell "records" but 2pac was a poet more then a rapper in my eyes and the whole entire industry would probably be alot different if him and biggie were still alive today. B iggie was more of hardcore hip hop. Snoop dog was the one who help to develop gangster rap. Me I started off listening to hardcore hip hop thru the pioneers who help bring it to the spot light which is the Wu-Tang Clan. I still listen to them tp this day but its funny when I hear their tracks it's like I have it programed in my head and know all the lyrics down to a T.

Oh, Snoop. He was not favored in his turf or surrounding due to his turf wandering and his flow. The majority that know him have labeled him as a sell out. A close friend of mine and owner in the High End Tattoo shops of LA have enlightened me on much of the history.

I like your poet comment about 2Pac. True. I would add storyteller unlike the Lil Wayne genre. Although Gunwalk is one of my favorite songs.....Gudda by his side.

Its funny that we are discussing music, a feel good topic for me, and subconsciously vaping on my Paps X 1.5. I swear this is the best mod I have eve owned. BTW Idaho, the first baseline i had to learn with the band was "Monterey" by Eric Burdon & The Animals. My fingers and mind was sore for a weak. LOL
Seriously? Oh the Animals, what a great band. I am sure "The Animals" LP was my first album. The UK owes them a thank you card for what they did for music there.

PS - I too am using my X now, Talking music with D and killing some GVC! Symbolic

WHat is funny to me those is I remember asking some guys couple of years ago when Lil Wanye was starting to get big and more popular who they thought was better Lil Wayne or Method Man and they gave me a great laugh when they said Lil Wanye because Method Man is by far a greater artist period. When it comes to just about everything lyrics, message and anything you can name. But it also made me realize that the youth has no idea of what real music is and lyrics. Something I've noticed as well is that a "hip-hop" artist nowadays relies on the beat to carry them when in the past the true lyricist would take any beat and make the beat with not only what they said but how they said it. Delivery, style and lyrics. God I love underground Hip-hop it's has gotten me thru the hardest of times and the best of times. Music in general is what keeps me alive. But yeah snoop has sold out hard, I remember in high school he even came out with some videos with hustler and they just made me laugh. I think he has his own line of e-cigs now to lol. and by the way it's not snoop it's Snoop Lion hahahahahahaha :laugh:

Don't even get me started on Lil Wayne. Ugh. I hate him with a passion. My all time is Biggie. I have a framed pic of him done by a very talented local artist hanging in my bedroom. Just amazing. And Wu Tang Clan is a fav as well. Modern rap is something I just cannot get with. There's no lyricism or talent. It's a beat that sells not the words. Give me the lyrics first IMO. Music, not just rap, is the biggest part of my life and has gotten me through so much. The classic rock, Dave Matthews, jazz greats, I could never hear enough.

There is good Hip-hop/Rap out there actually the men and women located in the North-West are coming out with some amazing Hip-Hop out there in the Portland,Oregon area, Washington State. A group which goes by Oldominion. Maybe you have heard of Grayskul they are a pair derived from Oldominion. My Favorite MC is from a group that derived from the Wu-tang clan. The group was called the Gravediggaz who created the genre called Horrorcore and the artist was Poetic a.k.a Grimm real name Anthony Ian Berkeley . God rest his soul but he passed away in july of 2001 of colon cancer at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles . And whats crazy is that he recorded his last album Nightmare in A-Minor while receiving treatment but he unfortunately pasted 5 weeks before it's release date. But lately I've been listening to Stevie Wonder hahahahaha. My wife loves Gun n Roses and Bon Jove. Want to surprise her and score some tickets to the next time Gun n Roses goes on tour.I know i'd defiantly enjoy that as well.

I think we agree on lil bitty Wayne. But, gun walk made me feel indestructible when needed. Yet, it didn't help me much now that I recall. That little ....er. :laugh:

Path you know well that your metal is allowed.

I know it doesn't compare but, Rob Zombie is a hero of mine.
When on leave I would catch the closest Gwar show for a while if not them House of Pain opening for Cypress Hill in rough bars in Atlanta in the mid 80s.
I also love classic punk. Punk set the stage freeing music as we know today.

When i was in 8th grade i was really into rob zombie and Black Sabbath and so on. But when i was 21 I was invited to go to ozzfest and it was so fun. The lead guitarist for ozzy was so amazing i swear he must of sold his soul to the devil himself he was amazing. And as for ozzy he is just as great. You can tell alot about how good a artist is no matter what genre when you see them perform live and in person.
 
How does the Heron compare to other high end atomizers like, say, a Rose or a Rocket? I'm thinking about getting one on the next vapourday for my paps. Also, I saw that come people put that paps wool(?) or whatever, I dont' know what it's called, in the Heron but I saw a review in which they just fill the tank directly, does either way work?

But i was just checking out the tracking thru DHL and it's interesting cause usually it will bounce around Germany after it leaves Sofia, Bulgaria and then once it hits Leipzig, Germany it is sent to the states in Cincinnati,Ohio. But this time around it went straight to Leipzig,Germany. So for all I know I might get some Vapemail in as early as tomorrow. But well just have to wait and see.

Hello Ezz!
In terms of flavor the Heron is spot on. The coil and wick setups are endless as well.
Being familiar with high genesis, the two are different animals and tough to compare.
If I had to pick, I'm on the Heron team due to the versatility. GP started the use of fluff in the vaping arena and many have followed their lead.
Don't get me wrong as I respect Matt's genesis creations much but, honestly the form factor, ease of maintenance, no leaking, looks, engineering have set it apart for me. We will always own at least one Doodlebug but, it is not in our daily rotation as the Heron.
But again, completely different atomizers my friend. I think 9ballAJ would be another to answer the direct question as well as the other high end genny users(just unsure if they own RSM) - VapinjamminBill and MsAwrsomeAkdare.
A Heron and Spheroid is a must have in your collection. Good Luck and feel free to hang out anytime.

Received the SS PAPS X/Heron package tonight bought off the classies. Pretty impressive, both of them. Gent forgot to include the GP Fluff he offered, and since I didn't order any from VA it'll be awhile before I can put it into use.



So I'm doing a concert on the Piccolo 3.1 tonight instead. ;)








There's a tutorial for a "fluff-less" build on the tips and tricks thread in pretty sure. Its what I used most of the time with my Heron. You could give it a go until you can get some fluff :)

I had great results with it.
