At least a few of these people are media guests or crew - especially the singles who aren't wearing Kiss swag. Bands like Kiss have handlers who bring them enough people for these meet-and-greets to feel important. As bored as they look, Gene and Paul would be truly sour if they showed up backstage...

Listen, these people need a place to sit down and let their food digest after an early-bird casino special of veal parmesan, a salad and the first glass of Chardonnay included.

This is the most accurate description of Slash's Snakepit I've ever seen.

The year Van Halen added keyboards. That would be 1980, sir. "And the Cradle will Rock" had Eddie playing a Wurlitzer piano through his Marshalls. Yeah yeah yeah, and Sunday Afternoon and Dancin' in the Street... but Jump was the 1st time that the melody was on a keyboard, and there were ...

This is the exact kind of song these guys should be doing at this point. Although the production sounds like it's run through a computer (like everything these days). The verses follow the Mom Jovi single format: two measures of singing, followed by two measures of music, repeat. ("Have a Nice...

Vince seems sedated...barely gets a sentence out. Weird. I've noticed in the recent Motley interviews that Vince does seem sedated, or just very low energy. He's not quite slurring his words but it seems like that could happen at any second. He just seems very off. I've met Vince a few times during...

Zero, spare for one independent Great White release my out-of-touch brother "gifted" me a few years ago. I never previously owned a Great White album, but I'll forever be "high school metal guy" I suppose. My massive collection from back in the day is stored in boxes in my paren...

Here's the Billboard 200 for the week the Bonham album peaked: https://www.billboard.com/charts/billboard-200/1988-12-16/ You could argue this is the commercial high-point of metal. Just look at the top-10 alone. You had a lot of fans who went record shopping on a regular basis, who might buy somet...

Paul Stanley will die before Peter Criss, and it will drive the Starchild's ghost absolutely batshit in the afterworld.

You’re using half-assed semantics.

No, I'm not. Words have meanings.

You're the one misusing a specific word as a blanket term to cover situations that don't apply.

Also, 100,000% fuck the term "expat." You're an immigrant. If all of the people coming to this country aren't expats, then you aren't, either. "Expat" and "immigrant" aren't the same thing. https://i.postimg.cc/XvBFNm7F/36b7c6f0-7e99-44c3-a7d1-e8804359f022-text.gif Fuc...

I think a lot of acts and promoters figured out a secret. You can book a venue above your means and make your tour feel like a bigger deal than it would be otherwise. (See: Crue/Def Leppard/Poison.) Heart has a bit of built-up demand by reuniting after a few years off, so that helps. But I just don...

Lindsey Graham was on the same show this morning and gave a much-better answer to the same exact question about accepting election results. But only after spouting off some idocacy about Israel and Gaza, saying if we can drop nuclear bombs on Japan, Israel can do "whatever it takes" as we...

"Expat" and "immigrant" aren't the same thing.

I wouldn’t even want to fly over Cincinnati :lol: I've thought about this too. I have this fantasy that our house will reach a million bucks, we'll cash out, then live out our final years in a nice little apartment on a coast somewhere. The problem is ... the secret's out on all the expat destinati...

They're all streaming on Hulu right now: old ones, reboots, everything. I watched the first one last night. Still brilliant for its time. Watching an astronaut smoke a cigar on board a spaceship is so '60s. Then I watched "Beneath the Planet of the Apes." Holy crap, that was awful. The fi...

Listen to all the albums besides the Chip only garbage.

Donnie is a genius and legend.

McDonald's changed their ingredients for fries in the early 1990s. Specifically, they changed the oil they used to cook the fries from a mixture of vegetable oil and beef tallow to 100% vegetable oil. The change was made in response to health concerns about the use of saturated fats, such as beef t...
