Re: Spinal Tap II - The End Continues review

I saw the movie Wednesday night. I’m very glad that I did. It was as good as it could’ve been.

Again - if it was true, the court records would have been easily obtained by now. They haven't been because they don't exist - no one sued Atlantic because Ray Gillin gave them AIDs. Didn't happen.

Out of court settlements can absolutely remain sealed.

Re: Badlands - Brazil "reissues"

Daily reminder that Ray Gillin did not sleep with fans and give them aids, and then the AIDs-riddled victims *secretly* sued Atlantic Records, who then *secretly* blocked all future re-releases of a band no one cared about. That shit is internet fanfiction. Not one shred of evidence any of that eve...

Take away the "barely legal" angle, and none of you "skeeves" would even know/care who they are. If you are seeing a "barely legal angle" for girls in their mid 20's there's something wrong. Yep. The band has never played that angle at all. Not in song lyrics or appear...

Re: Being a Rocker in a conservative area

How many of you grew up in a conservative, or rural, area and wanted to be Rockers? Did the people around you give pushback? Did you experience discrimination? Ever get into a scuffle? I got more pushback from the liberal people in my life. My father was a hard core liberal. He was by far the loude...

Re: The Warning - Live From Auditorio Nacional CDMX Gets Theatrical Release

I saw it last night in theaters. Very entertaining. I’m glad I went.


They’re about 30 people in the theater. Some of them get up and start jumping and singing a little bit. A little annoying, but I still enjoyed everything.

Re: Who would be completely forgotten about today without Eddie Trunk?

People say UFO and maybe that is correct for the US. But Trunk is not on the radio in Europe and UFO would always have a place in Europe. Not as an arena act, but clubs and theaters, yeah. Schenkers guitar solos were out of this world.... Even without Trunk, UFO would still be remembered in the US....

Same.

Good songs, cool vibe.

Yeah, Pau is awesome. I’m looking forward to their next record. They have enough good songs already to keep me interested for a while.

I dig them. Lots of fun songs. I saw them on Tuesday, and it was something special. They played a sold out 2500 capacity venue. Everyone in there was totally into them for every note. They’re gonna be big really soon. https://youtu.be/TlOy0XbFVlM?si=zmktZHVYKoG8dtMN https://youtu.be/EzA3SWkeYd8?si=c...

I know a family who is actually wealthy, and they're the cheapest people you will ever meet. They have no name brand food in their kitchen. Their house is big with a pool and jacuzzi but it's by no means a McMansion either. You wouldn't suspect that amount of money they really have if you knew them...

That's a cover? I know Nick Lowe had a song of the same name, but it is a different song. I like their records, not great, but some good stuff on them.

Re: RADIO ... Who actually listens to a local Radio Station on a regular basis in 2025?

I listen to a sports radio station of a regular basis (670 the Score in Chicago). For our local rock station (Rock 95.5) I will listen to it regularly for a few weeks, then not listen at all for a few weeks. It is decent background music, but radio isn't what it used to be for rock music.

About 15 years ago, I paid $30 to meet Uli Jon Roth. It was great. He was extremely generous with his time, and signed three LPs for me.

Re: Dickinson North America tour

The shows are good. However, the sound has a lot to be desired if you’re under underneath the balcony. They did completely redo it a few years ago, so maybe that has improved. I haven’t been there since 2019.

I enjoy them. I used to love them, but the last handful of time I saw them they were very forgettable. Eddie's cancer really hurt them. I have no idea how they still make money given the recent turnouts at the shows I have been to.
