MSG with Graham Bonnet.
Might as well add the Yngwie version of Alcatrazz to this list.

Sometimes I think, "Why the hell was I ever a fan of this band?"

Re: The first time you felt old at a concert?

Went to a Doobie Brothers show at a small theater, downtown. I kept seeing a bunch of old people walking around. Then I realized that we were going to the same show. And then I saw my reflection in a window. :|

Re: El Toro's Official Guitarded Thread...

Been looking for one of these for a long time. Found this one on local Facebook Marketplace, of all places.

In remarkably good shape, considering that it's a 40-year old guitar.

Re: The logical conclusion on the "cute girl plays metal" youtube vids

I am not hating but why do girls think they need to sell sex appeal along with their talent? So that someone will watch?

Re: Legacy acts. No new material vs. Mediocre material (Poll)

Would you prefer legacy acts not put out any new material? Is that better than putting out a mediocre album every few years? Maybe they like having a couple new songs to play in the set. Maybe the fans would prefer to have that 10 minutes devoted to stuff they came to hear. The way this is phrased,...

Re: New Ace record - Is it really him........?????

You can hear Ace's leads all over the album. Yeah, other than "Walking On the Moon", the solos sound like Ace. And it's not like they're great solos, just the same 5 licks he's still able to play. I'd guess that they had a much harder time getting vocals from him than than guitar leads.

Re: Who likes VH II better than VH I?

Van Halen II was the first VH album I ever owned, so there's a sentimental attachment.

And half of the debut album has been played to death by classic rock radio. So, II for me.
