Yah, L.A. Guns. We just did that November-December European run with Skids headlining in arenas. They were at their cusp. We had Sebastian on the bus at least once for a drive. Everybody just hung out in the upstairs lounge (Euro bus was double decker) drinking and smoking hash and listening to mus...

Given you’re an unabashed Anthrax fan I’m not sure your judgment is all that sound. Ed and Dave were definitely the worst. Al gets a lot of shit on here but I’ve never seen or heard him suck live the way I have those two rodeo clowns, multiple times I might add. Al, even when he was being his young...

Isn’t that what they’ve been essentially doing for the last 24 years?

Definitely after 1978, dingis. Given your timeline and line of thinking it’s safe to say that Quiet Riot, London, Twisted Sister, Def Leppard, Y&T, Night Ranger, WASP, Dokken, Motley Crue and Whitesnake aren’t hairbands either. Most of those bands were together in one form or another and doing ...

Tommy2Tone84

Yeah, it's catchy but it just has no energy to it... totally fucking lifeless. It sounds like a bunch of guys in their 60's trying to remain current. This. Jon’s voice is absolutely fried no matter how many surgeries/recoveries he does. The music is just there, it’s safe and pedestrian. Not a fan o...

It’s the second time I’ve read about an american being butt hurt over these lyrics here on Metal Sludge (a hair band forum). It’s like ”Unskinny Bop” or ”Fuck Like A Beast” make more sense. Get over it! I said they were cringey, that's a far cry from being butt hurt. Europeans singing some tribute ...

I don't know about "better." That AC/DC run is untouchable. Alice is a good one; Sabbath is a good one. I'd say the Ramones, at risk of inviting the "One good song and it just happens to be the hit" crew. You think? I love AC/DC but I don’t think they would be a desert island ba...

In fairness, Fake Purple were the original Deep Fake.

The Priest at their peak of greatness. Probably the last and best tour they ever did. It was all downhill after that.

Kevin DuBrow was dorky all around. The hair. The look. The personality. Everything. Haha, in the span of 30 mins.... you went from this: https://media.gettyimages.com/id/577081673/photo/american-rock-musician-kevin-dubrow-of-the-band-quiet-riot-performs-onstage-during-the-us.jpg?s=612x612&w=gi&...

Gary Cherone when he was in Van Halen. Literally https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS_zWOWqSSirA7cAp2dHIMHwTwk_sWPkdOijA&s Always liked Gary in VH. That tour was the best set list the band ever played and one of the most ferocious musically they ever delivered. I’ll put that ...

Tommy2Tone84

Can't he just be "rated." Not over or under? Right where he belongs. Like Joe Jackson or Warren Zevon. Joe Jackson is underrated AF. Zevon..meh I’m a fan but I don’t get all the hype. A lot like Leon Russell. I highly respect him and am awed by Russell’s career but his albums, at least fr...

I don’t understand the whole ‘make fun of an act cause they don’t sell out every show like Taylor swift’ mentality. no one can stay anywhere near the top for very long, and this current climate is complete dogshit Especially from grown men posting on a hair metal forum in 2024. I am not a huge Alic...

Yeah the bros were both alkies. Ed was the melancholy brooding drunk and Al was the silent angry drunk. Sammy said Alex quit in the 80s. Counterpoint: I wouldn't trust Sammy as far as I can throw him. Given you’re an unabashed Anthrax fan I’m not sure your judgment is all that sound. Ed and Dave we...

You have to be an alcoholic to run through wives?

Tommy2Tone84

I really enjoy this album! I like every track on here except This Means War and That's the Way I Wanna Rock n Roll. Two's Up is awesome and there's a lot of mid-tempo numbers that just seems to groove nicely. I'd give it 8/10. I never understood all the love for Fly on here. I felt Video and Razor’...

Tommy2Tone84

I think all staged choreography is stupid, from KISS rocking back and forth to what Gene's blood routine evolved into compared to the early days. Warrant down on their knees in unison, rocking back and forth—that kind of thing. I always thought spinning the guitar/bass around one's neck a la Cinder...

Tommy2Tone84

The Skid Row guys 100% have made the right decision to never let that douche back into the band. 1000% right. All the people on here saying shit like "check your ego at the door," "just make it about the music," etc, might a well be saying "just grow wings and fly" or ...

I wouldn’t call myself a die hard fan of her band but how can you not love her? Great voice, greater musician, great image and personality. She salutes and jams with all ours and her old hair metal heroes as well as the 90s and Nu Mil alt shit that was more her generation. She’s a class act and a tr...

Just heard from a somewhat reliable source (aka a “a friend of a friend who would know”) that Janet IS returning, and Share might be as well. Stay tuned… That will last about five seconds before the infighting starts. They had a good run and a good thing going with Lorraine. What a shame. Isn’t Sha...

Sebastian is the voice of reason here. Original Skid Row do owe it to us, We’ve been waiting long enough. Here's the thing. Nobody "owes" the fans anything, and it's the height of delusion to think that just because you liked a band thirty years ago they somehow have an obligation to get ...

Tommy2Tone84

Dave has to be the dumbest band leader of all time. His gigantic ego sabotaged the only chance he had at eclipsing Van Halen.

I would also argue that Dave is ten times the douche and nightmare that Sebastian Bach ever was.

Tommy2Tone84

Sebastian is the voice of reason here. Original Skid Row do owe it to us, We’ve been waiting long enough.

Skid Row have gone through four singers in a little over ten years. It’s not a good look.

Tommy2Tone84

I’d like to see Stephen, Juan and Warren go out with a second 80s guitarist and an 80s drummer. That’s probably too big of an ask.

Tommy2Tone84

I'm sure this is old news, but I didn't realize until yesterday the reason why they broke up in the first place (or at least the cited one). Bach goes and gets Skid Row booked as the opener for KISS on their big reunion tour in 96, and the rest of the guys give him the "Fuck no, we're Skid Row...

Tommy2Tone84

I’m sure they will find another singer or retire. I hope they bring Sebastian and Rob back finally.
