I'm known to be a HUGE fan of the legendary rock band Pink Floyd. I'm also one of those people who can have only one favourite band, that I obsessively listen to for months together. It started with my Evanescence obsession in 2005, followed by Pink Floyd in 2007. After 3 years, I finally found a band that was good enough to get me unhooked from Floyd: Diablo Swing Orchestra.
Diablo Swing Orchestra is Awesome!
I'm not going to give a review of this band here. Instead, I invite you all to check them out. Here are some recommendations from their first album The Butchers Ballroom:
1. Rag Doll Physics*
2. Poetic Pitbull Revolutions*
3. D'Angelo.
4. Balrog Boogie.
*Recommend having their lyrics on your screen while listening to them for the first time.
If you like these, you can go ahead and try the entire album.

Doctor Who Season 6- My theories
Everyone's busy trying to predict what will happen in the 6th season of Doctor Who. This is me doing my bit to add to the excitement.
I'm not great at guessing, and I have no idea about the classical series. All I can do is hunt for clues, and pick up on clues spotted by others.
Here's a video on youtube that got me started:
For those of you who're too impatient to watch it, take a look at the image below.
What is that symbol on her arm? It looks like the symbol omega, along with the roman numerals for the number 2. This might indicate the second incarnation of Omega!
Hmmmm. Just a coincidence? I don't think so. I went around looking for other places where this might be hidden. Obvious place to look was an episode written by Stefan Moffart and featuring River Song. Any guesses what I found???
This image was shamelessly stolen from Stonehenge.co.uk.
Wow! I see one big Omega with the roman numerals II!!! Can you see it too???
After seeing that picture, I'm convinced that the symbol on her arm was not a coincidence!!!
Not to mention, the markings on Amy's lawn looks a lot like Omega's helmet.
Here's a snapshot of it:
That looks very very similar to Omega's helmet.
Alright. Now, let me try and make some deductions here. If the markings on Amy's lawn are a sign from Omega, it is reasonable to conclude that Omega had something to do with the explosion of the tardis. Omega's symbol over the Pandorica (The stonehenge is supposed to mark the location of the Pandorica) also indicates that Omega intended the doctor to be imprisoned, possibly because he wanted the doctor out of the way when he returns. He probably foresaw that the doctor would reignite the Universe and sacrifice himself in the process. Having the doctor step through a crack in time to make way for the return of Omega sounds like sweet revenge!
This reminds me of the "Bad Wolf" story arc. "Bad Wolf" was meant to guide the Doctor and Rose to a particular point in time and space... go watch the episode for the full story.
Anyway, could the Omega II symbol serve a similar purpose? Should I expect to see some Omega symbol at every point that led the doctor to be imprisoned in the pandorica?
Everyone knows by now that "The Silence" are actually a race with physical and non-physical properties. We know that Omega created life forms in his anti-matter Universe. If some of them managed to find their way into this Universe, they would make a very good candidate for who "The Silence" are.
Anyway, one other thing that I noticed:
In "The Lodger", it was mentioned someone was attempting to build a tardis.
I think I saw the same tardis somewhere in the 6th season's trailer. Any guesses whats happening?
Update (Jan 15th 2011): Looks like there is a link between the attempt to build a TARDIS and Omega!!
Check out this link to BBC's episode guide (Arc to Infinity)
Quote from that site:
...although the Doctor also dismisses the Ergon as one of Omega's less successful attempts at psycho-synthesis. Towards the end of the story Omega boasts that he can build another TARDIS [but given the primitive nature of Earth this seems unlikely].
Woah! Another link to Omega!!!!
Right now, I'm taking up a massive hunt to find any other clue that points to the return of Omega!
