Burton Cummings is 76 years old. He's got homes in Canada and the US. He's got a mansion in Los Angeles with a wall covered in gold records (I know this because he arrogantly bragged about it at a show I was at). He's got enough money to bury these half-assed pretenders in miles of legal paperwork a...

The guy did exactly what's needed with this band. Check out their "Live At The Whisky 1977" box set. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFGrfOWdKZ8&list=PLdF6PNYTlApRYwVX1V1A9RQZu8Br27jDR His tone is great and he plays exactly what the tunes need. Cheap Trick were a pop-rock band. He fit ...

Up here, StubHub now wants a tax ID number if you want to sell more than something like $500 a year in tickets. Ticketmaster won't even let you sell unless you provide your tax info, at least up here that's how it is. Canada loves to tax! No wonder they are looking to do an IPO before the bottom fal...

This version seems to have better video quality:

The Speedy channel on YouTube has great vintage concerts with cleaned up video.

Feed Your Fantasy.

Starts out sounding kinda generic but it grew on me by the time the solo hits.

I can't say I've liked much Anvil the last couple of decades but for some strange reason I like this tune!

I also wonder how they could release this mess of a show as a live album. It's just plain bad. I thought at the time that Bruce's voice got fried by the cancer he beat but that was just before they did the Book Of Souls tour. As mentioned here the live album from that tour: Book Of Souls Live Chapte...

This is from way back in 2002 but I don't think Milano's views on Scott and Charlie have changed, there's some bad blood there for sure: https://blabbermouth.net/news/s-o-d-s-billy-milano-charlie-benante-and-scott-ian-are-fired S.O.D. frontman Billy Milano has issued a follow-up statement in respons...

Accept did one and it's horrible.

Udo's solo band did one too, I refuse to subject my hearing to it because I know it'll suck.

He should have went with George Costanza's piece!:

It doesn't even reach his shoulders, could that really be considered long hair?

The Human Centipede is one of the most disturbing movies I've ever seen:

Check out the trailer above, it's crazy!!!

Halford has been bald for 30 fucking years and before that he didn't even have long hair except for the early days (mid 70's ?) and it didn't last past something like the first album. He had short hair all of the 80's and late 70's, yet we are to believe that "band management" pressured Sn...

I know I'm somewhat out of the loop these days when it comes to who draws and who doesn't. But how does Slash solo with these bands fill sheds?

Biggest red flag for this "event" is: The press release doesn't even mention if this is an exhibition or a fully sanctioned fight by the Texas Boxing Commission. How do they not even mention this? A 27 year old Jake Paul vs a 57 year old Mike Tyson and ZERO mention of rules, sanctioning, r...

Rammstein's "Splooge Cannon": https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https% ... fcdf595387

Turbo has 2 good songs, the rest was trash.
Priest sold the fuck out hard on that album. I'm going to assume it sold well but the hardcore Priest fans weren't happy.

I couldn't care less because I was a big Maiden fan and knew that they were superior to Priest.

Feh. "Most important bass", my ass. James Jamerson's 1962 Sunburst P is still out there somewhere. If you think some Motown session players bass would be worth more than a Paul McCartney bass that was used during The Beatles heydey, you're completely out of your mind. One of McCartney's Y...

AC/DC is a little like The Stones. As long as Brian and Angus are there they can keep going just the same as Mick and Keith. Looking at AC/DC Brian and Angus are the whole show as far as stage presence is concerned. The other guys are just part of the scenery. Not many will care who's playing bass o...

I don't like eithers music so in a case like this you have to go with the lesser of two evils and that's Taylor Swift. The reason is quite simple: Beyonce has an annoying voice. It's grating and kind of warbles, like nails on a chalkboard. Swift also (or at least has in the past) writes her own stuf...

I grew up on music videos in the 80's and I love rock music so I guess I'd be the demographic that would be somewhat interested in the results of an auction like this. But I still don't find Dire Straits all that great of a band. I know all the hits that were on the radio and had videos but not much...

Burton Cummings. It was just him and his piano but the show was never advertised like that. We were expecting his full band. We were treated to a pompous ass bragging about his accomplishments in between songs. Saying things like "my mansion in LA has gold records on the wall, I love looking at...

I was at the Toronto show. That, with the following Rochester show were their last two gigs before going into the studio to record the black album, or it was a break from recording. Aerosmith headlined so Metallica only did 12 songs plus Newsteds bass solo. If I remember correctly Metallica used the...

The debut album did great, but how many bands can we say that about? Plus, the singer dies on tour and that album couldnt even get past gold status? Usually theres a huge jump in sales when it comes to that. PJs first three albums are classic. Everything after that is hit and miss but built later re...

Previously unseen footage. Audio and video restored, synced together from two different sources. He also has some old Van Halen, The Who, Queen, Max Webster, Cheap Trick, ZZ Top, Grand Funk Railroad, Alice Cooper, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Yes and Rush on his channel as well: https://www.youtube.com/watc...
