Re: Legacy acts. No new material vs. Mediocre material (Poll)
I vote keep putting out material even if it is just 1 or 2 songs. I have a SPOTIFY comp that I made for myself called "NEW" and I take the new songs I like from my favorite bands and add them as they come out. That list is pretty damn good and fun to listen to.

Re: Would you want signatures from a tribute band?
Back in my trib days this happened all the time. I never understood. At every show someone would bring some memorabilia to sign. I always double and triple checked that they wanted ME to sign it. Especially if there were other "real" signatures on the item. The only time I flat out refused...

Re: Ace is Walkin' On The Moon!
It's like the first song. First listen on shit speakers I was kind of meh. Second listen on a decent system I am liking it. I agree about the pace though. It either needs to be sped up a couple ticks or take it down to sludge metal speed.

Re: Bands you thought were huge, but actually broke?
KISS in the early 70's. They made it seem they were huge but they were running on fumes before ALIVE! broke. Aucoin's credit card maxed out. Paul's "hole in Bill's shoe story" puts it in perspective.

If was anywhere near that high he wouldn’t have sold the rights to his makeup…and for peanuts. If you read into all the talk around this, it seems he didn't sell his "OWNERSHIP" of the spaceman make-up. It seems he more or less "licensed" it to the KISS Corp. and receives a $$% ...
