Re: Best Debut EP

It's probably not the "best", but I've always been a sucker for the Great White EP for some reason. Just cause you call it an EP doesn't make it an EP. I mean, I'm genuinely curious to hear if you have any other reasoning for this besides "tunecore says so", and obviously E.P. i...

Re: Gene proud they ended when they did, because if they kept going, they would have "stayed too long"

Selfishly I am glad they did this last tour , as my twins (7 years old at the time ) were able to go on opening night of the tour , and had a fantastic time at their first concert . They were standing up rocking and singing for all 2 hours , and got to have a night out with dad on a school night co...

Re: Van Halen @ Sydney, Australia 2013-04-20 (pro shot)

I enjoyed that much more than I thought I would, ended up watching the whole thing.
I can’t help wondering how they would have went performing as a three piece with the young cub on vocals.

Nah, he’d had a few, unsurprisingly, and somebody put on a Madonna video.

The rest is drunk history.

Of course, most metal shows I’ve been too, it’s loud enough that I can’t be heard, which is good for everyone.

Re: Roth trolls Hagar, probed by aliens

I listened to this today, I’ve subscribed to The Roth Show, they appear at random.

Re: Ryan Adams: four new studio albums released at once

I've liked a song here and there but the last album of his I loved was probably Jacksonville City Nights , almost 20 years ago. JCN and Cold Roses were great albums ( both came out in 2005 ) but you are right, things went downhill pretty fast from those albums on. The S/T and Prisoner is the best 1...

Re: What’s an LP you like that’s never been available on CD ?

I’ve got the opposite problem, my brothers old band released three cds.
A local young bloke started releasing hometown bands cds on vinyl a year or three ago.
I have the first and last releases on vinyl, but the master tapes for the middle cd have disappeared.

I told everyone I knew they would be huge, took another two albums but I was proved right. Saw them twice, on tour for Slippery and then New Jers...

Re: Name the concerts you attended in 2023 ….

My Chemical Romance, Ghost and Maneskin.

Gigs, which I think are a different kettle.
The Fat Thing and The Ergot Derivative and Hoff and the Night Riders.
Dead Salesmen duo.

Did not want to leave the house much this year, things are looking up for the next.

Re: The moment_________went to shit as a band?

I remember a radio announcer commenting that you could hear November Rain playing, and hear the greatest band in the world throw it all away as the song droned on.

I riled at the time, but in hindsight think he may have been right.

Colin Hay still makes a living from touring, I’m sure he’s not living the high life. But he gets to do what he loves. Definition of success I reckon. Saw MAW headlining the Rocktober concert at the Myer Music Bowl back in the past, I was about 16 I guess. Also on the bill were Mondo Rock, Sharon O’N...

Saw them last night. Great gig. It was held at the Margret Court Arena, they say the capacity is 7,500. It looked near to full to me. They had no support act, and came on a little after nine pm. The guitarist wandered on first and started the riff to Don’t want to Sleep, then the drummer, then the b...
