Re: Jani Lane - Reworked Songs AMAZING!

maybe just release the original Jabberwocky songs in high quality. I don't need a "reimagined" version with a shitty AI video. 100% this. Just release them already. Don't need any fan edits 20 years after the fact while the originals sit unreleased. The songs were written in a completely ...

Re: Matt Sorum’s book - WTF?

You left out the part where Astbury got fat. :lol: Sorum said it attributed it to derailing The Cult both in the earl 90s and in the 2000s reunion. He couldn't sing the high parts when he was ballooned up. Never seen The Cult myself, but I remember a girl telling me she went to see them, and that sh...

Re: Latest DLR photo…

Speaking of current DLR as an old Rothtard I looked into his ticket sales for upcoming shows. Very underwhelming considering the good reception he got for the M3 show. Only 30 % or so sold for the concerts I checked. And the venues are pretty modest size. Guess the demand just isn't there. I'm star...

Re: Poison Live Raw & Uncut Full Concert

Why wouldn’t Hollywood Records release his record if they invested/ paid a bunch of money? Kinda like Crack a Smile,at least make “something” back on their investment. I’d love to hear that music, especially when a new Poison tune is never going to happen. At least give us the CC solo project right...

Re: ZAKK WYLDE!

Zakk was the guy for the moment. That ballsy, southern rock influenced style helped Ozzy move both into the 90s and a more marketable sound. Perfect fit for the times. It's nothing special now, but Zakk's guitar sound on NMT (active EMGs+JCM 800) was groundbreaking at the time. EVERYONE wanted that ...

I don't know man. Nuno is a master but, like Vai, I really don't think he would have been a good fit. Especially in the grunge era. But I guess anything would have been more interesting than the alternative.... the Holmes era was ass. Richie Kotzen says he was hired in '94 to play for Ozzy and do Oz...

Re: Band Schedule for "Back to the Beginning" tomorrow

Missed opportunity to celebrate some of the great bands Ozzy had over the years.

Rudy, Jake, and Tommy Aldrige playing together would have been cool...

Re: Chinese Democracy vs. Velvet Revolver's Contraband

Contraband had one hit song.

Chinese Democracy had no hit songs.

Both weak efforts.

Pretty funny we have nothing to compare VR's Libertab against - despite it coming out 18 years ago.

Who says they were looking for someone that played like Adler? Axl had a wildly different vision for the band by the time UYI came around. He was listening to Nine Inch Nails and Ministry and shit. The reason Slash's Snakepit came to be was that Axl basically didn't want to do anything that sounded ...

I could also never understand why GnR would replace a drummer like Steven Adler with a drummer like Matt Sorum. But that's not reflection on his talent but rather style. It's pretty simple - when a guy is a colossal fuck up, the number one criteria for his replacement is "not a fuck up." ...

There are abled-bodied people playing classic rock/metal well in bars, clubs, and casinos every night.

I would watch a cover/tribute band that's actually able to get up and play over some half-dead geezers in wheelchairs ten times outta ten.

It's a fun airport book. Sorum is an insufferable rockstar idiot, but I also believe him when he says Axl was generous about splitting things and that Slash was the one always shutting that down. Their old manager gave some credence to that at some point - told a story about how Slash's Dad had done...
