Re: Rick Beato video on corruption and the downfall of Rock after '96

You can compare the radio situation with Sootify’s playlists they promote heavily. Millions of people are subscribing to these and get new music fed to them. Curated by someone, somewhere at Spotify. Never ever do they add new rock on these major playlists. For rock you need to actively search for ...

For real? Waffle XXLVH would have zero musical career if he was an "average Joe". Yes he's a competent musician, but he hasn't earned any of his success, he's a dirty looking fat guy with bitch tits, and he seems socially awkward. Even if Waffle had "paid his dues", this is not ...

I’m indifferent about him. I do think your obsession with him is a bit odd. Same. Same. I also feel if Stevie had some sort of connection to WVH, he would be singing his praises. It's fine Stevie doesn't like him. It's fine Stevie doesn't like his music. It's fine Stevie goofs on his weight. It's f...

Re: THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION IS ... Would Wolfgang Van Halen be even remotely popular, if Pops was still alive?

Yeah the way this is worded it's like he needed his Pop to die before he made his own music... I'm sure Eddie would've pulled whatever strings were necessary to move his career along. Like people have said, he's not playing any old VH in his shows, which would be something that you could point to a...

I think it’d be about the same as it is now. Maybe a bit more even since his dad would no doubt be out there advocating for him. I agree.

If I am not mistaken, Wolfie doesn't play any VH material so I don't understand how that translates into people liking or not liking WVH because EVH is dead or not dead. "Oh Eddies gone, but Wolfie plays all the VH hits! Lets go!" Because some people are super fans. I was a huge Kiss fan ...

Probably the only band out of the 90s that I thought was interesting. Not enough to buy a record but there is something about them that I find enjoyable enough.

A lot of these women paid the price of fame not to mention constantly being bombarded about being fat or overweight to make a role or a TV show.

I've always thought Gene had two sides, he's got the Rockstar side, and then he's got the Chaim side. If he's playing the rockstar role, then he's going to be the cocky jerk that everyone loves to hate, but if he's just being Chaim, then he's simply a polite, older Jew.

The reaction shots of the audience and hosts during the singing are unbearable to watch. It's like the producers think the I.Q. of the viewers is room temperature. It probably is.
