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...

Re: What is the most overrated thing people love you do not understand?
France is famous for soft cheeses, but I've never heard that the UK had great cheese. What kind of cheese are you talking about? I'm genuinely curious.

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...

Re: How have I missed The Dogs D’Amour all these years??
Massive fan, first saw them in '88. Not quite as party-oriented as the Quireboys, they're a lot darker in subject matter and tone. In their day they were one of the greatest live acts around, and the run of albums from In The Dynamite Jet Saloon to More Unchartered Heights Of Disgrace is incredible.
