The funny thing about that is that he kind of started out the article like he was trying to apologise, or at least his version of an apology. But by the end it's just more BS that people are actually buying into. I'm sure at times he's been misquoted but I'm also sure that there are times what he's said was printed exactly as said. What I'm not so sure about is if KK actually understands the difference.

One of the tech forums I use recently had someone rage quit because they weren't getting their own way, it was everyone else fault and certain people over powered his message with a different opinion. However the rage quitter refused to admit any fault of his own despite every single one of his comments being an insult. "You are wrong you uneducated fool." "These are the facts go back to school and get a real education." "You are too dumb to form a real opinion." It was never a case of wrong and right but the insistent insults, but the guy flatly refused to admit those insults were creating a problem because he was right. That's kind of how I see KK now. He thinks everything he says is accurate and therefore the delivery of it makes no difference, misquoted or misspoken he's still right and shouldn't have to defend himself.

Haha, he showed his true colors quickly.
I don't understand how those people can read the same thing and say - yeah KK's right! Right about what?! lmao! As you say about the guy on the tech forum. He just blamed everything he said and does on the rest of the band! No responsibility for what he's done except to say that if he did split the fans he wouldn't like it. But that's exactly what he's done and continues to do. And to blame his replacement for him not being back in the band? Cry me a fucking river dude. No one in their right mind would want that trouble maker back.

Yeah there is nothing wrong with being right in a debate, but disrespecting everyone with a different opinion while being right quickly makes people forget about the debate and only focus on the idiot making all the stupid comments.

 

[redfly]

Absolutely. I have a friend who never seems to realize this lol.

 

[Slammed]

Everyone my brother works with is a fuck wit, a moron or a dickhead. He's had 4 jobs in 11 years and the same people seem to be at every job

 

[redfly]

Lol, the sewers flow in both directions, shits everywhere

 

[Slammed]

Working/dealing with shit people happens everywhere but there is always those who have to go the extra distance and remind you how shit they really are by bringing you down because they think it proves their point. Those idiots on Blabber constantly do that with JP. They think JP's silence somehow makes the band look worse but the silence gives them no ammunition so they make shit up and stretch truths to make their story better.

 

[redfly]

I seriously don't think I've seen this kind of crap worse than what's going on with JP. They've invented all these slights against KK. Just as bad as KK has invented them. At least with Mustaine you know he's talked some shit. But JP has been very respectful even with all the shit KK has flung at them. And even the high road is somehow an insult.

 

[Slammed]

Yeah it's funny how that works. Many of the commentors hate Dave because he's said stuff, and rightfully so some of it was stupid. But to hate JP for saying nothing is really a new one for me. It's even funnier when you consider Ian has spent so many years saying nothing, he's the only original member, and been in the band longer than KK, and the fans seem to only want to kick him in the arse when he does speak because he says something different to what their beloved fucking KK claims.

I find this funny. They gave people the choice between Ace of Spades and some fucking song by Lady Gaga and asked them to pick the best gambling song. Of course one of the most played and recognised songs of the past 40 years is going to beat some shit by Lady Gaga, the world isn't completely stupid...yet. But the fact that they only had two choices out of the entire world of music seems as silly as putting Lady Gaga up against Motorhead.

 

[redfly]

LOL, just the two choices? I figured it got down to two. I mean doesn't Johnny Cash have a song called The Gambler or something? Well still, thank god Ace won. That would have really been a pisser!

Am I wrong?...but didn't Atkins say KK was brought in? And didn't come up with the name Judas Priest but liked it. Sooo KK isn't even a founding member.

Kenny Rogers wrote the Gambler which is probably a lot more ionic around gamblers than Motorhead.
The stupid thing I found out before when I told the missus about it was that Gaga's song is not about gambling, it's about hiding the real you from the world and putting on a poker face. But if one really wants to get technical Ace Of Spades isn't specifically a gambling song either. Sure it's got lots of gambling/card game terms in it but Lemmy wrote it about life in general, I don't even think he was much of a gambler when he wrote it.

Yeah that's pretty much what happened. KK was in some other band going nowhere (both in life and music), he was stopped on the street by a van with the original band in it (I don't remember all the names). Because they had known each other for years he'd asked them if he could join but they said no and drove off. When he saw the name on the van he decided he wanted that name, but he wouldn't steal it so he waited his time until Ian called him up and asked him to join. I don't remember the time frame but Atkins and Hill were definitely in the band longer than KK.

One of the sources of blindness for some of the fans is that they don't believe JP were a real band until they released their first album, hence there is calls for the 50th to happen in 2021 not this year which was 50 from the year the name first appeared and not next year when they plan to do it to mark what they consider the 'official' start.

Oh ok, I forgot about Rogers.
The rest of it just makes the whole thing even dumber lol. Not even about gambling

OK when it comes to comments this ones just as good.
Ryan Bunsofsteel's comment pretty much sums up blabbermouth

All comments aside though I do agree with Maiden. Maybe it's not worth $2mill but if someone tried to market Cok or MACDonalds those companies would do the same. It's not about being fooled into thinking one is the other it's about using someone elses name for your own brand recognition.
