Re: Alice Cooper is playing high school gyms now?

Don't count on it. The Stones are still touring and the only exception I can think of, a huge band that stopped without a key member dying would be Sabbath. And that is only because Ozzy can't do it and the rest are not allowed to do it without him... They could go out as "Heaven and Headless ...

Valid point, in five years all these nostalgia acts will be dead. Eagles, Coop, Stones, Priest, enjoy it while you can. Either that or they’ll be all scabs and sons of the main guy.

Re: Def Leppard, Journey & Steve Miller tour

Live Nation is doing a crazy thing here in Europe, Journey and Heart are touring separately here at the same time. I'm not sure if either is big enough to sell arenas. It would have been common sense for them to tour together. Can't recall Journey playing anything but afternoon slots at festivals o...

Re: You Can't Stop Rock n Roll is the best Twisted Sister album

With Come Out and Play that anger wasn't there anymore, it was just a heavy metal album with a stupid lead off single. That's how I would describe Stay Hungry. WNGTI was just too happy and lightweight and the rest of the album was quite generic HM. Maybe The Beast and Burn In Hell have some of that...

Re: You Can't Stop Rock n Roll is the best Twisted Sister album

To me, those first three TS albums are all great. With Come Out and Play they lost me, not because it was necessarily such a bad album compared to the previous ones, but because it was a generic heavy metal album. What set those first three albums (and even more the live shows) apart was the anger, ...

Re: Ultimate Sin is a brilliant album

I think Bob Daisley was not as much involved in the songwriting on this one. He started, then left and in the end delivered lyrics for a lump sum.
That might explain the songs not being all there...
