No.

It took me years before I could even stomach Van Hagar.

I gave Chickenbutt a whirl, some time around what we can call the That Metal Show era, where it seemed like everyone was starting supergroups and they all sounded virtually identical.

74% of them had Glenn Hughes in the band.

0.0%

Dude's violating gag orders, snoring in the courtoom, ripping loud farts... nothing's going to happen to this guy. He will be handled with kid gloves until his dying breath.

I celebrate both the Randy and Jake albums as "classic Ozzy."

Ozzy's success with Zakk speaks for itself, and NMT is a great album, but it was a different vibe. Ozzy was trying to become more respectable and choke out his wife less. The music suffered.

The opening scene writes itself: The Van Halen family on a ship, coming over from the Netherlands, playing music to pay their way. Once they land in America, the kids can't speak a word of English so they learn to communicate through MUSIC. :o The rest of the movie will be about how they drank a lot.

Were you looking at them through the blinds, Mrs. Ochmonek?

Is there some great entry album?

Skylarking, probably.

Apple Venus is a good entry point too.

I'm with ElectrickMagick, they really did get better with age.

Also also, the whole point of RFK Jr, and why he's getting squillions of GOP dollars, is to be a spoiler for Biden--to divide the Democratic vote. If he ends up doing that to Trump, that is what the kids call fucking around and finding out. I will laugh and The Narrative will laugh with me. I keep ...

That would be a C.

But that would make anything under a 6/10 an F.

I didn't work out the grading system. I'll get back to you once I finish the syllabus.

I like it. She's a pretty good lyricist.

But a lot of these songs sound the same to me.

At the end of the day, I'm not a 9 year old girl so I'm not the audience here. It's fine for what it is.

I'd give it a B+, maybe a 7.5/10.

Ha. Yes.

I completely forgot there was a Motley song called "Without You."

The internet is the future!

I actually like both just fine.

Might go with "Tattoo."

Pro-labor > Anti-abortion

VH3 does indeed have some cool guitar stuff on it but suggesting it's anywhere near, say, Fair Warning is preposterous.

Jellyfish was great but XTC was the greatest.

As you were, lads.

Slayer - Decade of Agression
Exodus - Another Lesson in Violence
Priest - Unleashed in the East (yeah, I know...)
Pantera - Official Live: 101 Proof
Ozzy - Tribute

Great list.

Tribute, especially. What a great album.

Early 90's: Gregorian chants

Late 90's/early 00's: Old gospel and blues songs remixed

Late 00's/early 10's: Bearded folk bands get Clear Channel push to steer kids away from black music

COVID times: Sea shanties

The "narrative" will be that Robert Kennedy divided the Republican vote.......... Any time something happens that a Republican doesn't like, it's blamed on The Narrative. I predict it will continue to be hilarious to me to watch people whose identities revolve around being skeptical of th...

Jeff Scott Soto.

It kinda freaks me out to think about! :shock: I joined this forum almost 20 years ago, if I recall. Same year as Katrina, I think, so 2005? 20 years from now, these bands are going to be gone. Mostly dead. We're marching closer to the nothingness every day, my dudes. Anyhoo, you think we'll get ano...

Pulp is incredible. I can listen to that song 11 times in a row.

No Alex, almost no Classy Mikey, and Gary Cherone of Extreme on vocals. What a perfect storm of terrible choices.

No judgment! No judgment!

Ya got SLEEK'D

They rocked.

God no.

Don't fight a land war in Asia and don't argue with a guy named "Aznsquirt" about the definitions of coercion and seduction.

Exactly. The same goes for other bands/artists I like.

It didn't ENHANCE your enjoyment of "Heading Out to the Highway," finding out it's about the Hershey Highway?

Okay.

If you like the song "Love of a Lifetime," you are probably a little gay.

I would. I didn't know he was a pronoun until he said so, in the 90's. Before that, he had all kinds of chicks jump his bones.

Then he was like "I am a he/gay" and he was.

HueyRamone wrote: ↑Sat Apr 13, 2024 9:26 amOh. Right. Due to the fact that the Shocker soundtrack featured a lot of metal bands, it would make even more sense for him to have been included on it than Ozzy Nelson.

All good. You're just asking questions.
