Don't call it a comeback! Despite a shocking fourth hole, I had my best game to date, upsetting the regular order of things. The second-place spot which I have coveted for so long is mine at last! Now all I need is Rich to acquire some kind of degenerative bone disease and my future success is assured!
Oh yeah:

Though it cost me the use of my lungs for several minutes, those are indeed the signatures of all four members of Trivium, procured at one of the most incredible concerts it has ever been my pleasure to attend ("...there was a semi riot thing at our signing in LA, which left us all quite speechless and flattered..." - MKH's post at trivium.org). They were everything I hoped they would be, and look of sheer joy Matthew K. Heafy would share with the audience when he performed divebomb harmonics on his guitar made me glad the era of shoe-staring alternacrap is on the way out, and that music is allowed to be fun again. And In Flames were just amazing - definitely one of the tightest, most polished perfomances I have ever seen. They give Slayer a run for their money in terms of how note-perfect they play and sound live.
All in all, I'd say I had a pretty good fuckin' weekend.
