You can tell those were videos because there is NO way there are any chicks at a Manowar show. Nothing says "SAUSAGE" like Manaowar....

 

[DoomsdayZach]

Amazing. And speaking of, this is the most majestic thing i've ever seen. It gave me chills.



If you're not a manowar fan, you just won't understand. And if you're not into metal, you are not my friend.

speaking of 80's,dancing and not being friends i remembered

 

[Phanto]

Safety dance!

Requesting an 80s youtube video thread.

 

[ABQShredHead]

Haha. Grim Reaper ruled, Zach! And I was in 8th grade when that Helix vid came out.

Yas - what the????

And one of my fave lesser-known guitar players...

I <3 the 80s

So tonight was opening night for the musical I'm playing for and the band, the cast, and most of the production team went to the Karaoke bar afterwards. The other guitar player and I did the most epic rendition of "Afternoon Delight" ever.

 

[progmetaldan]

coolness. How'd the performance go?

 

[Meedleyx10]

The gig or the karaoke? The gig went great. The bass player on the gig is a total fucking creeper. None of us really feel safe around him, but other than that it was great. The karaoke performance....that was even greater. We had an entire bar dancing and doing the skyrocket noise during that part of the song. There were sooooo many Anchorman quotes flying around the bar for the rest of the night.

 

[ABQShredHead]

How is he a "creeper"?

 

[Meedleyx10]

He used to run guns before he "found Jesus", he grabbed the drummers ass last night, he's always making vague mentions of how he might bring his .45 with him, he's threatened to slap the musical director because the count-offs she's giving (which she is doing correctly) don't work for him....and he's a horrible bass player.

 

[noble savage]

The sad part is, the 'badasses' like him always make it in the music industry.

 

[Meedleyx10]

This guy definitely will never make it. I should've mentioned that he's in his late 50's/early 60's and the drummer he tried to play grab-ass with is a guy.

 

[noble savage]

Do you live in Pennsylvania? I think I worked with that guy!

Better keep him in the band! He sounds like he may try to have sex with little kids. Better your drummer than some 8 year old boy.

 

[ABQShredHead]

Shoot him.


Kidding.

To be honest my dad came here illegally, but laws were different back then, and having English as a first language combined with a fake name made for easy assimilation. He spent years working in garment district sweatshops, gas stations, Macy's, warehouses, truck driving, the list goes on, before marrying my mom who at the time was a permanent resident and they were granted citizenship shortly after my elder sister was born.

Saw your post on another thread, and I can't believe I missed this.
This is what happens when things get shitty at work...

I appreciate your candor on this. As you said, the rules were different, and that's the same argument I used when Cantox or whomever was railing me on the native american indians. If you ever need testimony on the state of healthcare, lemme know. I saw saw so much bad stuff with my dad earlier in the year, that it's enough to last a lifetime, as well as leaving a chip on my shoulder....

Ok so:

I live it every day. Not only did I work in a hospital for four years, my mom's been a nurse for ten.
