Yeah you had to time that one right. I saw them 3rd gig in and they were amazing. By Thanksgiving/Xmas Eddie was throwing monitors and banging on his guitar with drumsticks during his solo. Yep and a few months later my friend saw them and said they were incredible. Bummer.. refused to see them aga...

Saw Van Halen in their 2007ish tour when DLR came back. Was a sophomore in college so drove back to go with my childhood friends. Prob cost about $75 for nosebleeds (I prob had $250 to my name). EVH was hammered - think he was throwing monitors or some shit. Just sucked. I remember was all walked ou...

From what I can remember.. roughly in order: Bruce Springsteen (UBS Arena in Long Island City) Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit Bruce Springsteen (Metlife Stadium) Misfits w/ The Gaslight Anthem (Prudential Center, Newark NJ) The Darkness (Starland Ballroom, Sayreville NJ) The Hives (Brooklyn Steel, ...

My phone wouldn't hook up Spotify to the car for whatever reason so put on the local radio stations... WFMU was playing some sockhop shit so I turned on the classic rock station. Steppenwolf's Magic Carpet Ride... so I turned it off. So I'm adding that to the mix!

My top 6 are as follows. I've seen them open like 5 times and headline 3 or more. Always great.

Have you introduced RATT into the relationship? This typically helps.

Bruce Springsteen was pushing 4 hours for a couple shows.

I read the title as "Loneliest gigs you've seen?" for a sec.. was going to say this will be a good read.

Here at __________ we're visionaries & innovators. We're a tight knit family that love to see each other and ourselves grow both personally & professionally. At __________, we work hard and play hard to create a service that truly makes a difference in the world. We are ____________. I hate ...

The Hives "Death of Randy Fitzsimmons" is hands down my favorite 2023 release (so far). Need a few more listens for the new Stones and new Gaslight Anthem, but they sounded solid to good. This is why people doing these lists is so great. I had no idea that The Hives put out a new album. G...

The Hives are one of my favorite bands and anytime I see them in NYC the place is full and enthusiastic. The new album rules. This is also a joke.

Texas is an outrage when your husband is dead Texas is an outrage when they pick up his head Texas is the reason that the president's dead You gotta suck suck Jackie suck I love Misfits. Insane that they wrote, performed, and still perform these lyrics to this day :twisted: : President's bullet-rid...

I think the first three song run is awesome. Loved it as a kid and tolerate it (look back fondly) as an adult!

In the summer barefoot, colder times socks, coldest times slippers! Shoes only when I'm running in and out!

I had no idea Axl was an Ayn Rand fan. Has he actually read the book? I'm sure Axl views "Atlas Shrugged" as a contentious exemplar of Objectivist philosophy, espousing a contentious doctrine that lionizes unbridled capitalism and self-interest, while denigrating collectivist principles a...

Black licorice is one of my favorite candies. If I want the cheaper stuff, Good & Plenty will do, too! Get a lot of shit from people I know, but more for me!

The Hives "Death of Randy Fitzsimmons" is hands down my favorite 2023 release (so far). Need a few more listens for the new Stones and new Gaslight Anthem, but they sounded solid to good.

If anyone could DM me either/both of those tracks, would appreciate it

Told you I was blathering! I'm a big Darkness fan, but the B-sides (outside of Best of Me) didn't do it! Play Knockers god dammit.

Went to see The Darkness @ The Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ (Home of the Jovi). It's a 2,500 person capacity club that feels in the middle of nowhere in NJ. Overall it's a solid place to see a smaller-mid level band. I've seen The Darkness 5 or 6 times since the Hot Cakes release in various N...

Hell yes - good track. Not sure anyone else could have pulled this off. Who else's dad played clarinet? Let's start with that!

Occasional scratch-offs as an impulse buy...occasional NJ lottery ticket (the kind that "only" get you $1MM), but never casino or sports gambling. You lose $20 in a blink of an eye. You can go to a bar and get 3 drinks/1h+ of enjoyment, or buy an album, go to a cheap concert, for the same ...

It's another one of these: Rocker Ted Nugent: “Dead or in jail” if Obama is re-elected. I bet he made Mitt Romney uncomfortable.

I think they're broad enough where enough people would come to any stadium/venue any time. There's more people now than ever.. and if you slap those logos on anything, people will buy that shit.

So 60 year olds aren't partying like 20 year olds. I don't get it!!

Sometimes dog farts smell like sauerkraut

Rich Girl by Hall & Oates gets young white bros wild for some reason. I don't understand it.

Sounds good to me!

When you say "does it", you mean "nothing at all" lol

Take one out of ol' Mitt's book and retire.

Let me ask you this - did they remove the bagel chips from Chex Mix? I seldomly, if ever, buy it, but my work is "cool" and they put out snacks so all the employees feel valued and it makes the nearly an hour commute worth it. That said, on the bag of the little individual Chex Mix bag is ...

Not really a Stones fan, but I love how they are making this album release an Event...cryptic magazine adds, websites that crash on purpose..weird commercials with Fallon...... The whole thing has been really cool. The Fallon thang is probably due to the fact that the executive producer, Lorne Mich...
