Re: Favourite Zep clone?

I'm going to see Lez Zeppelin at the end of June. It's only the one original woman but still, I'm looking forward to it.

Re: How many CD’s do you still own?

I went through them all & whatever wasn't worth 5$ on discogs, I donated. That left me with a couple hundred. I still listen to them in the car & at home via a cd walkman hooked to my receiver. I have a turntable & a cassette deck, as well.

Re: Who was the best NU-METAL (pu-metal) band?

I've always liked Korn, but never considered them nu metal. Zebrahead was kinda cool, although I see the original lead guitarist & rhythm guitar/vocalist aren't in the band anymore.

Re: How are your teeth?

I've always taken care of my teeth. Dentist twice a year, brush floss twice a day, but my parents certainly didn't have the cash for braces.

Re: Suicidal Tendencies - War Inside My Head

Re: I like XTC better than Jellyfish ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I just saw EXTC live, so great. It's original drummer Terry Chambers, along with 2 scabs, doing XTC songs. Obviously I'd rather see the originals, but said band does have Andy Partridge's blessing.

Re: How much do touring musicians get paid?

I think Jon has the band on salary and they come play when needed. The newest guy Everett may not be. Tico and Dave probably still get a cut of the merch money. That's BS. Tico and Dave have to be partners. Hugh probably is too. Their old contract in the 80s said Tico and Dave have .5 percent or 1 ...

Re: How does Rick Nielson rate as a guitar player.

now in his later years he puts very little effort into playing. At least on stage. He has said in interviews they don't rehearse. Which is apparent. He is super sloppy, hits the wrong notes, stops playing at times to mug for the audience. He is more of a showman than a guitar player. I would rate h...

Rolling Stones ticket sales have pretty much stalled out completely. So many fans from the fan communities have died the past few years. They have finally outlived their fan base.

Standard guitarist, excellent songwriter. Does he still use a bunch of silly guitars live? Like he had the 5 neck one, the double neck that was an image of himself, the checkerboard explorer etc.

Those Fantasy Camp things usually don't appeal to me but man, you get to play YIL with Warren D'Martini?! How much do I have to pay & how long do I have to deal with the other "campers" until the jam? I'm assuming the "jam with the talent" is the last thing you do.
