OK I'm not the only one who thinks the new costumes look like they came from one of those pop-up Sprit stores.

He got to go out on top with so many around to honor him. We should all be so lucky.

"Let's circle back to this..."

Trite stupid "business" buzz words

Jiminy - Bear Ghost

Not very sludgy but great playing, clever lyrics, and eclectic as hell.

Yeah Nuno isn't the tallest guy around, and yeah all of the band members wear big heels (except the drummer). Honestly they look no shorter than the Japanese tourists I see every day. As for Nuno spazzing out, he was being recorded by the Lovebites videographer so I'm sure he played up his reactions...

Vito Brata...the guy just flowed. The solo in "Wait" showcases this.

Justin Hawkins reviewed the tune. I had never really considered the Scandinavian elements in the music before, but he is right in his comparisons. Of course, ABBA has been brought up often.

Spillways was the best ABBA song in the past 30 years.

Maybe he's like Joe Walsh and Iggy Pop who are years sober but still sound loaded.

My guess is when Pophouse bought KISS (catalog, images, IP) it did not include rights to any members but Paul & Gene. For a release with limited commercial appeal, why pay more to make it happen?

DING DING DING we have a winner!

At first glance the new Album Anti Pope/Papa/ Cardinal or whatever the hell he'll be called...is a veer away from the more commercial sound of the last couple albums. Impera started with a "Rush" song and a "ABBA" song, super commercial. The new single is a redirection to the &qu...

Elevator Operator - Electric Callboy

Mexico - Igel vs Shark

Honorable mention for Robin Zander. The past few years have seen his high register tapering off but he still delivers.

From last year, but new to me: Mexico by Igel vs Shark.
Austrian straight ahead rock band, think AC/DC on speed. Power trio, catchy as fuck.

38 years old according to Rabbi Google...this is what the term "hitting the wall" was created for.

My favorite is a Shishkov DC semi-hollow. Pick ups voiced for Classic Rock and untouchable build quality.

Honorable mention to my Jackson Soloist (all about the neck) and my Kiesel Aries.

Meh...

I like this better: https://youtu.be/7lu8ptDI274?si=7Xm1-dGXs8UrLUlq

Definitely not practicing guitar...

Great band, one of my favorites. In his recent get together with Jason Green, Stanley provides insight that new music is in the works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpdNM844wAY Thanks for that.

WTF is up with this band? Horns? Strings?

I guess a payday is a payday.

I saw Kenny playing with John Fogarty and his drums were the loudest thing in the arena. Solid and a super hard hitter. Amazing as the guy is 71 years old.

I sit in traffic 10+ hours a week so audiobooks are a regular listen for me. I prefer the ones narrated by the subject. The Geddy Lee one was fantastic. Alex's "book" was just OK for me. Like has been said earlier in this thread, lots and LOTS of interview and book quotes. He is very compl...

Each of the five years I lived in South Florida I had to secure the house 6 times preparing for a hurricane. Only took any real damage from the first one (the week I moved there, Welcome to Florida). Hurricanes sucked, but not as much as the red necks, overt racism, and smothering humidity. All reas...

Don't know if anyone else has, but I'll put in Diddy as the next to "Epstein" himself.

My two teams (yea I have two!) are the Bears and the Dolphins. So It just might be a good year.

Plus Tua and his family were just down the road, so I gotta root for the Local Boy.
