Dude read ‘double-digit IQ’ and felt personally attacked. I get it. I know my response is disproportionate to the source motivator, but for the record I do not chime in and cause drama on every political thread. Far from it. But sterilize is the type of guy that needs to be addressed. The majority ...

You gotta remember, KISS fans are really stupid. Especially ones who pay for these shitty meet-and-greets. I watched the OP video and the Gene video and my god does every utterance from the crowd sound ‘double-digit IQ’ to me. Like straight up South Park ‘RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE’ crowd caliber intelli...

I saw this on Headbanger's Ball a couple times back in the day and I loved it. I think they are from San francisco. I haven't heard anything else from them. I had no idea it was a cover tune until Stryper recorded it for The Covering in 2011. I never would have guessed it was originally a Sweet song...

Oh. So is "Monsters." Damn.

Well, there's some merit for being two for two, I guess...

What the f is this crap? How hard is it to write a fucking rock song? These songs reek of the outdated ambition responsible for one of the biggest failures in Rock history. No matter how you spin it, Chinese Democracy was a lifeless overly complicated dud. No one could relate to it. So now are we go...

I think Beast from the East is the best 80s metal live album. They are in top form. The harmonies are tight and Lynch just tears it up

Nice playing. And then Yngwie came along and was light years ahead of where Randy eventually wanted to go. At the time, we used to joke that the real reason the plane crashed was because Varney sent Randy a few cuts from Yngwie's demo. I love Yngwie but in my opinion he's much more of a one-trick p...

Huh, that's a good picture of me. Thanks bernie!

From a decade ago. As a musician I appreciate having experienced the era of Randy Rhoads when it was new and mind blowing and a powerful influence

You could argue against Tesla being a second-rate GNR, but as soon as Jeff Keith did the Axl dance in one of their videos, that's exactly what they became.

My favorite of the bunch is Asphalt Ballet followed very closely by Kik Tracee

I'll never forget driving back from the city with my older brother and his friend. They were all about the latest car stereo gear and Metal. They pop a cassette on and I have no idea what it is. I'm just laid out in the backseat, probably high from smoking weed, and I'll See the Light Comes On, and ...

I guess during that time there was always a spot on a tour for them. So they were reaching audiences and the label saw them working hard and the headliners probably didn't have to pay them a whole lot. Regarding these comparisons. I don't know Black and Blue that well but Hold on to 18 is way better...

:evil: I never knew anybody that was into Keel or had their records. Yeah, we all had the Steeler record - because of Yngwie. I wouldn't be surprised if that one record outsold Keels entire catalog. But that loud cartoonish voice of his kept it from being better. I bet some clueless record exec loo...

Just heard that GNR is late for their 7:35 set.

Since we're doing this here's 90 seconds of me wanking away to fill up the last bit of space on my recorder... https://youtu.be/wYxHCoL_wks?si=mQmJxWEjZbTmI989 Not bad, junior. Check back in a few years That was 11 years ago. Admittedly I probably haven't improved much, if at all... Well, you still...

Manowar banned me from all their concerts after an interview I did with Scott Columbus for Classic Rock Magazine. I am a Brother Of Metal no more. That was a great interview. In fact, it got me in trouble with Joey himself in the weirdest way possible. The Thunder in the Sky EP was out at the time....

Glad you like it. In the last market assessment, there appears to be zero interest for my music on vinyl.

Thanks, Huey.

...or should I call you, "Spark"?

Not bad, junior. Check back in a few years

This isn't something that I worked up. I basically just jammed for 10 minutes and edited it down to a montage of riffs. I kinda dig it.
But, can I face the heat from the world's most notorious critics AKA sludgers?

Fight to Survive Mine, too. My favorites go in order of release, FTS being tops, Mane Attraction at #4. They were unknown to me when I got FTS, but sometimes I would pick up whatever new metal was available. Guitar-wise, Vito gets better and better with each release. If there was a 5th record, I th...

Probably about 20 f****** years ago on a Tuesday at the baked potato, on a packed night for the Starfuckers Slash was jamming with zigzag and gilby.

I was just spinning my Meco "Star Wars and other Galactic Funk" vinyl, of which side one is really phenomenal, and I noticed that it was distributed by Casablanca. It even has a thank you to Neil Bogart and two others naming them the "Galactic Council". I believe that Meco's cond...

Guilty on the Axl thing, too. All era's. Even the look that was like a oversize white t-shirt, flannel tied around the waist with little red shorts. Yikes. I had the Kill Your Idols, Hustler, and Eat the Worm t-shirts. Back in '92, I had a pair of double-sided Thin Lizzy Black Rose t-shirts airbrush...

Gotta check out his standup to get the whole picture. He is SUPER offensive...it's performance art as much as anything. He's best in front of an audience that hates him. ...so him doing this vaguely sweet song takes on a different tone. Here he is opening for Faith No More: https://youtu.be/TmnBMKP...

So, I am very excite about this. This guy is one of my favorite comedians. I talked to him briefly at a comedy show, completely on impulse. I was like: "Hey, there's that guy", so I went and told him I was doing video work and would love to do something with him, as I want to branch out i...
