I love image of Snoop, Tupac and Dr. Dre cowering in fear of Dionne Warwick.

Ok seriously, what the fuck is up with pop music's constant sampling of "Blue"? There are much catchier beats from one hit wonders (Return of the Mack says hello!).

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

“Blue”’s hook/riff dig into your subconscious in a way that few songs do. There’s a reason Vice produced a documentary on it for its 20th anniversary!

It's a blue world, all day and all night.

Went see a 90s cover band advertised as Grunge. Singer starts the show with "Let's Go Brandon." Their backdrop is a yellow "don't tread on me" flag but with Corn Holio saying "are you threatening me?" I tried internally dismissing it as tongue in cheek, but evidently I was wrong. After the "LGB" comment the first song was Pearl Jam. She then goes into "Bulls on Parade", "Say it Ain't So" and "Interstate Love Song." She then makes a few comments about not liking female singers even though she's a woman, "but fuck it here's a pussy song." Sings "Zombie." Does some crowd engagement through all of the songs and is 60/40 singing herself and letting the townies sing. She then strikes gold when she realizes someone in my group is a musician by trade and literally hands him the microphone and goes to the bathroom leaving him in charge of her band. He was loosened up enough to go with it, rest of us weren't drinking (and plotting our exit), so he went sing whatever until she got out the can.

I like a good "Fuck" inserted into conversations but during her Weezer bit she kept inserting, "say it ain't motherfucking sooooo ohhh" to the point of "it's funny, it's funny, okay it's not funny anymore....why are you like this?" She then did a pretty decent cover of "You Oughta Know" when she wasn't having the locals sing for her then demanded everyone order "Pussy shots" from the bar.

Overall the band had good talent but horrible execution. Post show we were able to ascertain many people in the bar recognized my friend was basically a ringer (he played the same venue two weeks ago) but that the singer of the band tonight didn't realize it and she just lucked out when she stuck the microphone in his face.

I don't like the idea of being the guy that gets all up in arms over an entertainer making political comments but I guess that's part of living in this garbage timeline.

What a long strange trip…


(Wait that’s wrong Bay Area boomer rock band)

Not sure what to make of this pseudo cover of Faith No More's "Epic" featuring ex-Megadeth bassist Dave Ellefson and ICP's Violent J.

What size do you wear @Laz ?

 

[Fall of Epic]

Uncalled for.

Yup, so cruel.

 

[strummer]

Over the weekend Cher's "All I Really Want To Do" was on the radio and two days later I still can't get that damn song out of my head.

 

[Valeyard]

Bowling For Soup's "1985" came out in 2004 which means that in 2023 I feel super old twice.

 

[Gary]

Yup, so cruel.

I just remembered the time I called "That Metal Show" a midlife crisis that lasted to long. I stand by this stance

I was not expecting to wake up this morning to the news that Sam Smith performing at the Grammy Awards. has somehow led to a bunch of conservatives going full Satanic Panic, but such is life

 

[Hawk 34]

Fam that’s nothing compared to how outraged the bey hive is that Harry Styles won album of the year and not Queen Bey.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Beyoncé fans can’t handle themselves at awards shows.

All time bad takes award for the article....

David Crosby Called Graham Nash to Apologize Before His Death

Graham Nash revealed that David Crosby called to apologize and reconnect shortly before his death in February 2023.

ultimateclassicrock.com

Vale might hate it but I hope this is true. Life is too short to carry that much negative energy with you.

 

[Valeyard]

Graham Nash doesn't apologize. He's a scumfuck. I hope he gets hit with a brick.

DEF LEPPARD's RICK ALLEN Hopes PHIL LYNOTT Was Joking When He Said He Broke Up THIN LIZZY Because Of 'Pyromania'

In a new interview with Joe Rock of the WBAB 102.3 radio station, DEF LEPPARD drummer Rick Allen was asked if there is any truth to the rumor that late THIN LIZZY leader Phil Lynott told DEF LEPPARD singer Joe Elliott that he broke up THIN LIZZY because he "couldn't compete" with LEPPARD's third...

blabbermouth.net

That is depressing if it is true.

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Hey now Pyromania was two arm drummer era Def Leppard. It’s a bummer Phil Lynott left this mortal coil before he could hear all of the great “Def Leppard’s drummer has one arm” jokes.

 

[Valeyard]

I was happy with my Best Of and copy of Hysteria.

"Love Bites" is one of the best songs of the era and I don't care what anyone says.

 

[Fall of Epic]

Eh, Love Bites definitely wouldn't be on my top 5 or top 10 DL tracks. Photograph and Bringin' on the Heartbreak were better singles.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

I’m more of a High N Dry and Pyromania guy but Hysteria is pretty good and can’t deny it’s a classic.

“Let’s Get Rocked” is first song I think of when I think of a band being out of touch with the times (and a definitive classic rock song that fuckin’ sucks). Although tbh, at the end of the day, it ended up higher on the charts and probably gets more radio play today than all but a handful of grunge songs so who really is out of touch?

 

[Valeyard]

I ironically like "Rock Rock Til You Drop," though. Same feeling I get for "Let's Put The X In Sex" although Def don't have the Kiss charm.

Meet U2’s New Drummer, Bram van den Berg

Dutch drummer Bram van den Berg will temporarily replace U2's Larry Mullen Jr. at the band's 2023 Las Vegas residency.

ultimateclassicrock.com

It is definitely going to be odd seeing a new member of U2 even if it’s only on a temporary basis.

 

[Valeyard]

It's too bad it's still U2 though.

Morrissey says Capitol will promote Sam Smith's "satanism" but considers his unreleased album "their biggest threat"

Morrissey has again hit out at former label Capitol Records for shelving his unreleased album 'Bonfire of Teenagers'.

Morrissey is gonna pretend he’s a man who is afraid of Satan? I guess you do what you gotta to do to appeal to the right wing reactionary crowd.
