Re: It's been a week now...can we all admit...(Ozzy/Sabbath)
I was tentatively all-in for the nostalgic reasons most of us were looking for …but other than Nuno, I didn’t really see anything that made me think “wow I’m glad I looked at clips all day” while it was going on. Especially not the Ozzy solo and Sabbath finale. When Ozzy was yelling at someone to “t...

Re: Sharon Osbourne is extremely attractive
At one point (I’m think of the era she was fighting with ICP on the Stern show) she got a LOT more attractive with plastic surgery - but like so many others, she kept on going too far with it.

Re: Latest DLR photo…
Speaking of current DLR as an old Rothtard I looked into his ticket sales for upcoming shows. Very underwhelming considering the good reception he got for the M3 show. Only 30 % or so sold for the concerts I checked. And the venues are pretty modest size. Guess the demand just isn't there. I'm star...

Latest DLR photo…
Taken this week. I know he’s 70 but should he look 20 years older than that, unless something is wrong, which I hope is *not* the case. I was worried when he made his retirement announcement back in 21 and it was sort of cryptic that something might be going on. It really does look like he’s aged 30...

Re: Matt Sorum’s book - WTF?
If anyone has checked out former Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman’s bio, in the very early phases he was jamming with Slash and Duff on the earlier version of what became Velvet Revolver. He somehow got in contact with/after he was looking at buying a home out in California, which happened to belon...

Re: Any Sludger’s see Clapton in the early 90’s?
My one and only time to see him play live was during the tears in heaven era of him touring. It was a good show, packed out in a 16K seat area and his band was tight. I think he looked a bit like what was in the original clip in this thread too.

Re: Lou Gramm almost as sad as watching Frankie Valli
I saw Lou headline a riverfest show in Gadsden AL 15 or so years ago and I think that was before he had his serious health issues - he sounded pretty bad then and I can’t imagine the poor guy has gotten better over time. His solo band was pretty solid.

Re: Wolfgunt is back to abusing boomers on social media
I know Wolf is very talented and I respect him for what he pulled off as a young kid for the VH gig - but I just can’t get into his own music. It’s pretty bland.
He was on such a high note when he played with Dave Grohl…if he put out a VH sounding record he’d win over so many people.

I didn’t think it was terrible. That band was good. The guys that look like princes backing dancers/singers from the early 90s were a little oddly placed, but they actually made the background vocals sound better. What I really think Dave could profit from - besides a for real vocal coach to help hi...

None of those 80s guys dug in on the rhythm like Ed with the exception of Nuno. Nuno understood the assignment. I think Paul Gilbert could give em both a run for their money.

Barring the EEAS band reunion, I wonder if someone like Paul Gilbert would have ever been interested in playing the EVh role in a solo Dave band. Dave has enough clout to put together an all star band and sail off into the sunset on a high note. At least to help hide what he’s lacking. I’ve always b...

There’s no way this *has* to be this bad unless there was some kind of mental impairment going on.

Re: Do Roth-era VH purists like solo DLR?
I’m always thought it was a giant mistake not releasing It’s Showtime as the lead single for ALAE. That’s about as “Van Halen” sounding as he got solo. Big fan of that whole album. It was totally downhill for Dave after that and I’m a pretty big apologist. I did like his live band during the Sammy T...

Re: Huge 1970’s touring band’s who vanished by 1985
Seeing ELO mentioned reminded me of when much later on - in the early 2000s I think - they had to cancel their tour before it even started due to low ticket sales….and now they’re playing arenas and larger venues and selling pretty well at least at the one that I went to see.
