Re: Chevelle vs. Creed

I can name at least 5 Creed songs off the top of my head, but can't think of a single Chevelle song. That is probably your answer right there

Re: Anyone hear the new Firehouse song yet?

They solved the download issue so I bit the bullet and made the dollar investment. It's actually pretty good, and sounds like Firehouse. Prime Time era Firehouse, but still. Chorus could be stronger and it takes a while to get going, but a solid Firehouse song in 2025 with a new singer. Will listen ...

Pre-Extreme - The Dream - Mutha from 1982 (pre-Nuno)

Re: Anyone hear the new Firehouse song yet?

The song is called Mighty Fine Lady. You can supposedly download it from their music site for $1 but I couldn't get it to work. And I didn't want to have to sit through the entire Eddie Trunk interview to hear it.

Random Lexxi sighting

Was in Cleveland this weekend and stopped by the casino to see the Billy Morris (ex- Warrant and Tuff) band Sunset Strip (80s cover band), and Travis from Steel Panther is on bass. Guess that Hollywood Gods n Monsters is no longer a thing? He looked good for fresh out of 'sex rehab'

Re: Did you go to the Van Halen 3 tour?

Saw them at a shed near Cleveland. Place was pretty full. As mentioned, the set list was great - a good mix of Sammy and Dave era songs, including Dave songs Hagar rarely played (and no solo Sam). Gary had a lot of energy and the Band sounded great. That being said, he was an odd fit, and the crowd ...

Re: OOPS … Bolan on releasing ‘Slave To The Grind’ as a single; “Our biggest mistake… I disagreed with the decision”

Quicksand Jesus was not going to keep their female fanbase - not as good as the ballads on the debut and not a traditional love song. Going heavier on Slave was a conscious decision that was going to skew heavily male not matter what. For the direction they decided to go in, Slave was the better cho...

This. Musically more interesting from Pull forward, but who wants a serious Winger? The first two albums were at least cheesy fun

As mentioned this one is a classic - a candidate for top 10 of the genre - and I was a little surprised the ratings were not higher. Going back and revisiting, though, I would say very good. It is not like Hysteria or Appetite where any song could have been a single, but there is also not a single s...

This song sounds like something off Alice Cooper's Trash album ( which is obviously the intent down to use of the riding crop on the singer's leg). A little (way?) cheesy but fun
