Re: OZZY Euthanasia? Never mind.

If you don't have an opiate habit then by far the best way to go is a heroin or fentanyl overdose. You would get a very pleasurable warm feeling for about 20 to 30 seconds and then you just fall asleep. It's as peaceful a way to go as there can be. Of course then you have to die with people thinking...

Re: ZAKK WYLDE!

Zakk makes it sound like Ozzy did Ozmosis and then took a couple years off until '97. That isn't what happened. Osmosis came out in late '95 and he toured within a month or two after it's release. I had tickets for the Seattle show and it got postponed for a few months and ended up happening in Febr...

Re: Alex Lifeson plays Limelight with Tom Morello, has guitar issues

I haven't watched it yet, but a bolt on his headstock broke? What in the hell? That is terrible luck! So a bolt broke? Like one of the machine tuners (or whatever they are called)? That would be like the truss rod snapping or something. Very bad luck indeed.

I was a guitar tech for Poison starting when I was 18 in 1985. I then went over to L.A. Guns until '92.

Randy also wasn't using massive amounts of cocaine to get inspired. That was all him. Actually that would've been kind of cool if Randy had gotten into drugs because the first few years you do them there are some favorable returns. Randy was disciplined enough that I think he would've been a produc...

They scored a lot of trim. Maybe they could have a storyline akin to band turmoil due to Matthias and Rudolph fighting over wh...

I'm sure you've all heard Nuno's story about being offered the Ozzy gig in '95. How do you think he would've done with Ozzy? He obviously rips on the old stuff, but what kind of original material do you think he would've brought to the table? Would he have adapted to Ozzy's more gothic style or woul...
