Re: New “Road House” movie

Watching it in a couple hours with the girlfriend. Expectations are low but we've each got our poison of choice (edible for her, bourbon and Arrogant Bastard for me) and I think the worse it is, the more we're going to enjoy it. I've pretty much lost interest in movies and TV shows but I've got to a...

Re: Famous people you saw live AFTER they were famous and were back to playing dumps?

I saw Ace Frehley at a big bar/small club type place in the mid 90's. He was so drunk he almost walked off the front of the stage until his drummer grabbed him by the back of his shirt. Saw Great White at the same place. Vince had a solo show booked there but canceled day of. Word has it when his bu...

That sums it up for me too. I've noticed a good number of younger fans at the last few Clutch shows I've been to but there are still plenty of us there who are as old as the band is.

Dice, as in Andrew Clay. I never thought the guy was remotely funny. He was a foul mouthed third generation ripoff/caricature of a 50's greaser by way of Arthur Fonzarelli and Danny Zuko.

There are so many ways to cheat with those things, even more if they use their phone.

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.

Re: Is Roth a good dancer?

Just a guess but I'll bet his dancing is like his singing. Technically not great, but his innate Daveness keeps him from looking like Elaine from Seinfeld. As a singer, he's a great front man and as a dancer, he's a great court jester.
