The alternative rock band is known for reshuffling their set list after every gig, and with the possibility of selecting songs from six albums and a another half a dozen or so EPs, they can well afford to omit some of their biggest hits in favour of other material, keeping things fresh for themselves and adding a surprise factor for gig-goers.

Aint-it-cool-news is running what looks like some form of test renders of Optimus Prime for Micheal Bay’s upcoming Transformers movie adaptation. The images had seemed to be doing the rounds on various forums before AICN snapped them up. One image shows Optimus’ arm, possibly in the middle of transforming (you can see some of the electronic parts on the inside), with a red flames detail on blue background on the upper part of the arm. The other picture is of Optimus’ face, and although the eye region is blacked out by a horizontal strip you can definitely make out that the infamous mouth plate design has been kept. If these images are legit, that is. See for youselves.

I am a little leary of the situation. The truth will come out when, and if the US economy, and the dollar begins to strengthen. If prices remain high, you’ll know someone is lying. Either OPEC doesn’t have the supply they claim they have, or Analysts are incorrect when they say demand has decreased. Personally, I don’t buy the claim that demand has decreased. Population is ever increasing, so, the the demand should always be increasing.
