Re: Burton Cummings is done f'ing around
Burton Cummings is 76 years old. He's got homes in Canada and the US. He's got a mansion in Los Angeles with a wall covered in gold records (I know this because he arrogantly bragged about it at a show I was at). He's got enough money to bury these half-assed pretenders in miles of legal paperwork a...

Re: ATTN: TICKET BUYERS, GET READY.......
Up here, StubHub now wants a tax ID number if you want to sell more than something like $500 a year in tickets. Ticketmaster won't even let you sell unless you provide your tax info, at least up here that's how it is. Canada loves to tax! No wonder they are looking to do an IPO before the bottom fal...

New ANVIL Has Arrived!!!
Feed Your Fantasy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dhQoQ7dptA
Starts out sounding kinda generic but it grew on me by the time the solo hits.
I can't say I've liked much Anvil the last couple of decades but for some strange reason I like this tune!

Halford has been bald for 30 fucking years and before that he didn't even have long hair except for the early days (mid 70's ?) and it didn't last past something like the first album. He had short hair all of the 80's and late 70's, yet we are to believe that "band management" pressured Sn...

Re: Is the hate for Priest’s Turbo really justified??
Turbo has 2 good songs, the rest was trash.
Priest sold the fuck out hard on that album. I'm going to assume it sold well but the hardcore Priest fans weren't happy.
I couldn't care less because I was a big Maiden fan and knew that they were superior to Priest.
