He sounds better than 2 decades ago. He was really bad on some shows of the Crucible tour 2002-3.

Re: Been a while since we had a heartwarming Wolfgang Van Halen tale
Just download the Looney Tunes double bootleg cd and they would have had all these songs ready and collected. All that shit was available since the mid to late 90's. I could have given Ed or Dave a copy within 15 minutes. Nice to see in 2024 a reference to a little project me and my Cornell Uni VHM...

Re: Scorpions w/ Uli...if they toured
Scorps should've mined those old albums the same way Coverdale did the old Whitesnake lps I can't see "He's a Woman She's a Man" or "Steamrock Fever" blowing up MTV in 1987 even with a Mutt Lange production and Claudia Schiffer dancing on a BMW. Claudia Schiffer was still 17 in ...

Neither is the dumbest in their respective bands IMO. I'm not even sure Criss was the dumbest DRUMMER Kiss had.El Vampiro Blanco wrote: ↑Tue Mar 12, 2024 5:52 amI raise you a Tommy Lee.
In his book Peter Criss did nor so much come across as dumb, but just very uneducated.

Re: DUMB & DUMBER ... Who are the Dumbest musicians in rock n' roll?
There is definitely something wrong in Vinnie Vincent’s head. Vinnie sure has problems but low IQ isn't one of them. I suspect the opposite, that he was at least on Gene and Paul's level and they didn't know how to handle him. They were used to have dumbasses without drive in the band - Criss, Ace,...

Wouldn't that be great if Halford's Priest and KK's Priest were on the same bill? They could agree to not play any of the same songs. What a night that would be! In a perfect world, they would open for Les Binks' Priesthood and Sinner Owens would be banned from ever singing any Priest song not from...

Re: Been a while since we had a heartwarming Wolfgang Van Halen tale
You know, the more we learn about Wolf the more I’m wondering if he pulled the same trick Hagar did when he joined and pretty much usurped control of the band since Ed was out of his mind on substances and easy to control. We always assumed it was Ed who booted Sauce. Maybe Wolf was angling for the...

It's still tainted by Scott Travis drumming for me. I wish it was done with a simple 70s drummer who doesn't carpet bomb everything with double bass drums... Someone call Les Binks. And the newer songs aren't Scott's biggest problem. On 70s and 80s Priest songs live, Travis sounds as off as disco d...

Two good songs: "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and "Wind of Change." The rest is filler. Overrated filler. No one listens to the Scorpions. Who is "Uli"? Windxof Change I get, it's different even to their other ballads, but how can you like Hurricane and not any of about ...

Re: Bands whose first gigs were at huge venues.
Manowar's first show was opening for Ted Nugent in 1982. Setlist.fm has their first show at the 5k+ El Paso County Coliseum, it's maybe not 100% the first but it must have been the type of venue Nugent played at the time.

VV's third singer would be Mark Slaughter.
