He shouldn't be out there and Nikki and Tommy both know this. It literally looks like someone slapped a blonde wig ...

Re: Poll. what AGE is too old to be wearing BAND OR TOUR T SHIRTS

I still wear them and purchase them at shows I attend. That being said, I can't stand the ones that have overly huge graphics that take up the entire front of the shirt and I also don't like the overly soft shirts that cling to the body. I prefer ones that are heavier gauge.

He honestly should've done this in '83. The problem with Megadeth was never the instrumentation. It was always the pissing and moaning and the voice and the lyrics.

Re: Van Halen @ Biloxi, MS 1982-07-24 (Soundboard)

How do certain portions of the fan base listen to recordings like this and come away from it going “That Mike Anthony was never any good. Ed really carried that guy.” The Edtards are just as stupid as the KISStards. As much as an "Edtard" that I am, I always cringed when the topic of Mich...

Re: Wolfgang cancels...schedule conflicts?

Perhaps he canceled because he was afraid Hagar would try to push him to perform with him and this was the easiest way to squash that. We all know that even if Wolfgang wouldn't have canceled but declined Hagar's invitation, Hagar would advertise how he and Wolfgang had a real heart to heart talk an...

Re: Any Sludger’s see Clapton in the early 90’s?

I've never really been into Clapton solo. When I was younger I did like Cream. I loved the production on those old rock albums. Clapton seems like such a miserable prick that it just makes him unlikable for me.

Re: Revisiting Def Leppard’s Adrenalize

I really liked "Adrenalize" but, as I've said numerous times in the past Def Leppard's "Adrenalize" is the sister album of Bryan Adams's "Waking Up The Neighbours." You could interchange the songs from both albums and it would work. It's due mostly to Mutt Lange's produ...

As odd as it sounds, even though I was fully aware of the Black Sabbath connection, Geezer just seemed like such an OLD guy to be in Ozzy's band.

Saw them open for RATT in Biloxi, MS on the "Dancing Undercover" tour. I couldn't believe I actually enjoyed an opening act I never heard of. That didn't happen again until I saw Skid Row open for Bon Jovi a couple of years later at the beginning of the "New Jersey" tour.

The song is simply horseshit pandering. It's less about Ed and more about Hagar saying, "See I'm a good guy paying my respects."

Anything with dialogue over the music. Always thought the Guido who says, "24 hours boys" in Bon Jovi "In And Out Of Love" over the music video was stupid. That being said, I don't mind dialogue before and after the tunes, just not during.
