Well, I have been away for a pair of weeks. I chose to remain in hiding for a little while,
I had nothing to say. I was away on business for a few days, had access to a company lap top & did feel inspired to post or reply to anything. I feel that, the straw that broke the swine’s back was the "Best Hair" thread. Best Hair?! Really? Is that what we have stooped to? It’s very "teeny bopper" to me. Kinda like "what’s Britney’s favorite color?!" I don’t call that era of "rock" "hair metal" like many folks these days. Why?! Well, for the most part, they weren’t! I wouldn’t consider Motley Crue metal, no more than I would ZZ Top. They were "rock" people, there wasn’t anything "metal" about them aside from the distorted guitar. Can you imagine asking someone what they like/ And they answer "metal." And they mean Jani Lane & Warrant?! What the fuck has this world come to?! While on my trip I began to pick up some old rap discs that I enjoyed, when I was 20ish. Man, there’s some stuff on there that has stood the test of time. Ice-T & Ice Cube were the shit for me back in the day. I’ve also been on a Joe Satriani kick along with Yngwie Malmsteen, those two mothers kick my ass every time I put on their stuff. I was excited Friday morning when I was listening to Howard Stern that they decided to gave Sammy Hagar a call to verify that he IS back in Van Halen. Excellent news. To most of you "regulars" it’s no suprise that I "get wet" thinking of the reunion with Sammy. DLR, you shrunken dickhead, that was your last chance... Fuckin’ dummy! This proves that the "noses" need Hagar more than Sammy needs the "noses." And for anyone that wishes to endorse a DLR reunion? Go fuck yourself... Nikki Sixx, went on record that the next Crue tour will be their last. If they get Tommy back behind the kit for one last tour they will go out with some ability. I think they should have called it good after the hits tour. Vince is just going deeper into shitter. As for Brides of Destruction? What a cry out for attention! Nikki write stuff for the "fans" not the Nu Metal crowd. I'd much rather have you preaching to the choir bro! Let me tell you somethin’ B.O.D. is about as dangerous as Blink 182... There I said it. The state of rock? It’s right on track, within a year or so the guitar solos will be in again. Trust me I know. Music will be heavy & the "pop punk" thing will be as "in" as 80’s glam rock... And for those of you waiting for the 80’s glam rock scene to come back? Get a fuckin’ life. It was what it was & I hope to never have that "type" of stuff to ever be mainstream again. The bands that were the innovators are the survivors & even they have done something to taint their legacy. Do yourself a favor pick up the GNR hits disc, their version of "Sympathy for the Devil" is the shit!
I’m Back mother fuckers!
Oink!
