Staged 100%. Guy bladed himself like a wrestler when he went down after the hired patsy "missed" and offed one of his retarded followers instead. Then they snuffed him to keep him quiet forever once they got their pre-planned photo-op. Oh come on. It's not like Trump has any ties to wrest...

Yep. Without it, he would've been long forgotten.

Bra-fucking-vo.

Every time I'm ready to give up on this place, someone comes OON with some crazy genius inspirado.

He was shot at. He didn't get hit.

Worth bumping if only to laff at ppl who think that "backpedal" has an e on the end.

The guitar solo on Wanted Dead or Alive justifies their existence. The most expressive use of pinch harmonics I've ever heard. He was the only real musician in the bunch. Speaking of which, why did they carry a fake bass player for 10 years? They couldn't find another short hairy swarthy guy to tak...

Don't do that - the only place they'll go is down-down.

I heard "In and Out of Love" on the radio last week. It was a better song than I'd remembered. Sambora rips.

Would've accelerated their demise.

Mattley, funny Badlands story for you. I was sitting w/ Jake on the MORC one night and asked him his "favorite Jake E Lee" riff, like if he was a 3rd person, and he chuckled and said that he loved Hard Wire. I told him no, that Jake E Lee's best riff is Devils Stomp and he was like, "...

Docked a point for being a superfan of a band that has similarly long lost its mojo.

Finally, an LAGlam hot take that I can get behind.

Plus he must be a pretty multitalented guy to be able to drive a commercial vehicle that distance.

He's extremely deserving, and I think he likes it.

He was probably just blathering. If the bros. really knew something they would've kept it quiet. That would've hurt them as much as it would him.

But... again, I understand the age factor is huge! Look at Ozzy. Legend... but a sad grim reality. $tEvil I really wonder what condition Ozzy would be in today if hadn't crashed that quad-bike in 2003 when he nearly died. It seems like that and the subsequent neck/back surgeries is what truly screw...

I never thought Jani was very good live. I enjoyed CJ Snare and Pete MAGA Loran on Blood, Sweat and Beers more than I did Jani. I enjoyed Firehouse and Trixter live more than I did Warrant. I’ve never understood the fainting and fawning over Jani on here. Overcompensation from sexually confused dud...

Could be worse, they could look like Caillou.

Wasn’t referring to 2007.

That's the concert you posted, pickle-chugger.

Tyler sounded fantastic yesterday. I guess his voice.has recovered, or is he good for a few songs but not a full set and tour? Yeah, he probably can't sing the highs anymore or scream like he used, maybe for a couple of songs but even here you could even tell it was Nuno trying to sing the high voc...

Is DLR gay?

Yes, but he's not a drama queen. Paula, whom i was referring to, is.

It would be so funny if the next President would launch an investigation to strip Elon and Melania of their citizenships. This would actually have a chance of success as they both violated visa regulations before becoming citizens. Gavin Newsom would definitely be up for the task. 8) We here in CA ...

And the gayness. Don't forget the gayness.

Poison were a shitty poser band for girls. I'm sure a guy like Kotzen who practiced his ass off for years resented their success... shit, the average gang of four bar-band jobbers resented their success. I wonder who really was on those records...

Where? 'Cause it ain't on the Ozzy records. Randy and Jake smoke him and it's nowhere close. His one shining moment was NMT, but that's way more heavy than shreddy.

Wow, Trunk surprised and was useful for once.

I either didn't know or didn't remember about Kotzen. (Here's a story with more -- https://bravewords.com/news/richie-kotzen-on-almost-joining-ozzy-osbournes-band-there-was-this-huge-blow-back-on-an-aol-thread/) He's one of my favorite guitarists, but he's not the kind of guy who plays others' solo...

Banging the drummers fiancee probably didn't help either.
