Re: CANCELLED … Mötley Crüe’s Vince Neil has just cancelled his next solo show in St. Louis scheduled for Fri. Aug. 22n

I'm shocked whoever bankrolls the Crue tours would allow Vince to do these awful solo shows. Its one thing to see him stumbling through it on a stage surrounded by strippers pyro and roller coasters. its entirely another thing to see him warts and all live without a net crashing and burning. Who th...

Re: RIP … Kick Axe Guitarist Larry Gillstrom, Dead at 69

Yeah that’s a shame. Kick-Axe had a good little run there. Vices is a classic 80s metal album. I met him as a teenager when they opened for Triumph on the Sport of Kings tour. I got to know a few of the KickAxe guys when I lived in Calgary late 80s early 90s and they were trying to find their way o...

Re: RIP … Kick Axe Guitarist Larry Gillstrom, Dead at 69

If you were in Calgary during the late 80's, you must have been familiar with Franky & Johnny's at the North Centre Inn. Kick Axe were regulars there. Remember when you walked in the back door, there was a wall lined with artist photos? When they closed, I ended up with a couple of the photos f...

Re: Favourite Ozzy Black Sabbath studio album

My ranking would be: 1) Technical Ecstasy 2) Sabbath Bloody Sabbath 3) Master of Reality 4) Sabotage 5) Never Say Die 6) Volume 4 7) Black Sabbath 8)Paranoid I don’t consider “13” to be a Sabbath album. Just a slapped together pile of trash without a single interesting riff. Just sounds like outtake...

Re: Favourite Ozzy Black Sabbath studio album

Paranoid would definitely be my least favourite. For me Technical Ecstasy is the best Sabbath album. Underrated as hell. Backstreet Kids and Dirty Women are masterpieces. All Moving Parts, You Won’t Change Me are great. Some of Iommi’s best guitar work is on here. I love the experimental, prog Black...

Sad but I knew it wasn’t going to be long. Sure glad I got to see the legend several times live. The voice of the greatest and most definitive heavy metal of all time and it isn’t even close. There will never be another

Yeah there’s no way that date is correct. He wasn’t born in 1927. He’d be fucking 98 years old today

Ouch. Alex must have been pissed. Pretty hard to compensate when it’s the high E you lost, especially for that solo. That’s a nightmare

My 30s by far. You’re not a dumb kid anymore, but still young. You can appeal to both younger and older women. Athletic prime. So far my 50s have sucked and I know it’s only going to get worse

Ozzy, who is borderline vegetable, is going to do an hour? Good luck with that Yeah...I'm seeing that they're supposed to do 5 Ozzy solo songs, and 4 Sabbath songs. There's no way, unless someone is co-singing with him on almost all of those. Only 4 Sabbath songs after all the hype huh? 1) War Pigs...

Re: Less popular hair bands opening for major headliners?

Saw Alice in Chains open for Tesla and Great White in 1989 I think in Spokane. AIC were unknown and pretty much and a full on glam hair metal band then.
