Re: Do you appreciate Nickleback more in 2024

I dig their studio output from Long Road thru Here and Now, each album seemed to purvey different life stages and I bought into it - there's the "recovering from trauma" album, "the bad breakup" album, the "I finally found someone but might be holding on too tight" albu...

Re: Does a salad qualify as a meal?

I have a nicoise salad a couple of times a week in summer, lightly dressed with balsamic and olive oil. Plenty filling, plenty healthy, easy to prep. Superb.

Re: Why is Shinedown's 'The Sound of Madness' charting on iTunes?

Didn't know they'd charted again but "Sound Of Madness" and "Amaryllis" are fantastic albums. Diminishing returns since as they seemed to drop the more up tempo tracks in favour of mid-slow paced rock and ballads, but there's still a few gems to be found and I've enjoyed each sub...

Re: Fucking Youtube

I'm a Ublock Origin guy and started getting the "timed" warnings that using an ad blocker would eventually get me banned, and sure enough I got the "3-2-1" warnings. Went through the UBO steps of clearing the filter cache, etc, but it didn't help. So I decided not to push the env...

Re: If you had to do a drug, to excess, what would it be?

Ecstasy circa 2000-2006, hasn't been the same since, not even by half. Every time I see a Mitsubishi on the road I get giddy.

Re: Warrant Ultraphobic

I tried super hard to like Ultraphobic (and Belly2Belly) but ultimately failed. It wasn't until their '86-97' live' album came out that I started appreciating tracks from those albums. I still can't get into the studio versions but the live versions I really dig.

Re: Hollywood blockbuster poll! Which movie are you going to see this weekend?

Saw MI:7 yesterday, loved it but I'm a fan of the franchise so take that bias for what it's worth. I agree with others that it's not as good as Fallout but until Part#2 is released I'll reserve full judgement.

Re: Ratt: I Don’t Get It

My introduction to Ratt was Detonator in the early 90s and I liked it, but it wasn't until their S/T album in 99 that I found any inspiration to visit their 80s material. I really dug that 99 album, that and Infestation. Saw them live in around '08 at the Metro in Sydney, fantastic show. But to me t...

Re: What did you have that you wish you still had?

I basically "gave away" a full set of Titleist 962B irons in a trade and haven't stopped kicking myself for it since, they were/are the best blades I've ever played and I've never found a comparable set since....<sigh> Other than that it's all the usuals, mostly memory. My long term used t...

Re: Better summer '91 hit: "Unbelievable" or "Right Here, Right Now"?

I can't remember the year - clearly after the track was released - but "Right Now" was played during the post-game show of the AFL grand final, and having all the slow-mo of the game's great moments against the track worked really well and (at the time) renewed my interest in the track. I ...
