Re: RIP Robin George
"Heartline" was a fantastic song but he didn't get the momentum to follow it up. Talented bloke, but also responsible for probably the worst production job I've ever heard in my life - Wrathchild's Stakk Attakk.

Re: Your stage gear as a Rocker
It's been variations of the same thing for the last 30+ years. When I first started it was cowboy boots, bandana, black skinny jeans (or the shiny PVC ones), leather waistcoat and a hacked up t-shirt. Now it's engineer boots, top hat, black skinny jeans, leather waistcoat and a hacked up t-shirt. Us...

Re: Why is it not acceptable to wear band shirt for band that is playing?
Never seen why it was an issue, myself. If I'm gonna pay to see a band, why would I be ashamed to wear their shirt at the show? Some people think about this shit too much and are too keen to impose rules.

Re: Would you still like Priest if Half wasn't a LGBT?
Well, maybe it's a cultural thing, but over here in the 70s/80s the leather-clad gay guy in the Brando cap and chaps (with optional extra handlebar moustache) was a well-established comedy trope. Hell, you all got the Police Academy gag with the Blue Oyster Bar, right? And none of the actual bikers...

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 ...

Freakiest film I've ever seen is probably Brian Yuzna's Society. I like a good weird horror and they don't come much weirder than that.

Sports. I don't judge anyone for being sports fan, except for a couple people I know who never shut the fuck up about their favorite teams and assume I'm as into them as they are, but overall I just don't see the appeal of being a sports fan at all. Absolutely this. It's the assumption that you MUS...
