Ratt seems like a band that got less popular after Out of the Cellar when they should have been huge. Probably the boring live show. And one of the worst lead singers of all time. I agree. Pearcy is/was a terrible singer and terrible frontman. I saw them on the "Dancing Under Cover" tour ...

Judas Priest management.

Iron Maiden choosing Blaze as their front man.

"No Prayer For The Dying"

Hiring the Prancer.

I like it quite a bit. They seem tired and uninspired more than "lets do a grunge album". For some reason, there's a charm to that. As mentioned, it absolutely IS some of Nuno's guitar work. Unconditionally is a beautiful song too, imo. Paul Geary was uninspired. After recording his drum ...

Mike Mangini played drums on "Hip Today", "Leave Me Alone" and "No Respect". Paul Geary played on the other tracks. Although Mangini is the most technical of the three drummers in Extreme, I thought he wasn't a good fit. Geary's simpler drumming fit the band. My favorit...

My least favorite Extreme cd and it was my least favorite tour.

Didn't like the grunge.

Less funk.

I like "Hip Today". I really like "Unconditionally". The rest doesn't really do it for me.

Paul made a statement about "Forever", saying that he and Michael Bolton met only once to try writing a song. The song wasn't finished. For whatever reason, the two never worked further on the song. Paul finished the song. When Bolton wanted to perform the song, he wrote to either Paul or...

It was written by Michael Bolton and Stanley at the height of Bolton's powers. His sound was THE template for the soft-rock/adult contemporary format, no surprise it scored a good chart position. But was there any overlap between Kiss' target audience and Michael Bolton? Hell no. So the song breaki...

I just found this video. Didn't know that Pamela Moore performed this live with the band. Great performance of a great song from a great cd. "A World Without" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PCWgI1MkMk Here's the studio version: "A World Without" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...

FYI The agreement between Michael/Eddie/Scott and Geoff was that the three members got the band name Queensryche and only Geoff could play "Operation: MIndcrime" in concert in its entirety. The same goes for "Operation: Mindcrime II". Queensryche can play all of the songs off of ...

I wish he would have talked at least a bit more about Iron Maiden 1985-1993 It's pretty clear in his book that by the time the power slave tour was done he was tired of iron maiden and Steve Harris dictatorship and just tuned out and persued other interests... That seems quick. NOTB - Hey, you're n...

Tell Dee that he didn't hit any of the high notes on his cover of "Lay It On The Line". He's no Rik Emmett.

Nice job on "Lay It On The Line" and also "The Trooper".

Which musician are you?

Can't stand Dee Snider, the person and the singer, and his band.

With that said, Dee doesn't have the range that Rik had on the original song. Rik no longer has that range anymore.

The music is fine.

There was a minor lineup change that might have had something to do with it.

I did.

Aeroshit - S/T to "Get Your Wings" Queen - S/T to "II" Judas Priest - "Rocka Rolla" to "Sad Wings Of Destiny" Black Sabbath - S/T to "Paranoid" Metallica - "Kill 'Em All" to "Ride The Lightning" Elton John - "Empty Sky" ...

Fitz actually has a feel and a groove. His absolutely nailed the playong on the Elder when they played it live. Eric Singer sucks the life out of everything he plays. My understanding is Neal Smith from the Alice Cooper group thinks he is absolutely horrendous and can't even come close to play any ...

Who did Paul want as the drummer? Would be funny if they asked Anton Fig and he said "I make way more money doing Letterman so no thanks!" Anton didn't start with Letterman until 1986.... Don't know if it was Paul who wanted him but Bobby Rondinelli almost got the job. Paul may have wante...

Ugh. When he says that shit, I feel homosexual by proxy.

It doesn't take Paul to make you feel like the homosexual that you truly are. Just ask your boyfriend.

2023. Paul's vocals were so deteriorated, that he resorted to lip-synching the majority of each concert, but he put in great effort to entertain at each show. Gene was Gene. Eric's drumming, lead vocals and harmony vocals were great. Tommy was the M.V.P. of the "End Of The Road" tour. He ...

Paul didn't want Carr hired in the first place. Gene and Ace wanted him, so that's why Carr became the new drummer. Carr wasn't the drummer that Singer is. Carr didn't have the technical abilities that Singer has. Paul likes Singer as a drummer, because he's a reliable, professional musician who ca...
