Says the Dokken, Ratt fan...tell me...how are they less mainstream and generic than Metallica? because they suck :) Dude I'm defending Metallica here... Who are you referring too? (I like all three...I just don't get how you can slate one band for these reasons but love otherwise very generic metal of the sort Metallica never dabbled in). Sorry, I was referring to Dokken and Ratt :)

well Cliff died a long time ago

Highway star Jesus built my hotrod I can't drive 55 Ventura highway

another guy who should have sang on the Time Machine Tour :)

And I was all set to come in and Curb Stomp Jeff Beck :(

Fell back in love with Silver Machine by Hawkwind recently. Gotta love pre motorhead lemmy :)

With Morton Downey Jr?

Jimmy John's #8 easy mayo with hot peppers :)

I had to use a long effin username :(

My thoughts are a bit different. I didn't think the song needed a solo, especially that solo. Weakest part of the song. It's a throwaway. Anybody else concur? IMO, soloing is cliche and over rated. It's not a necessary part of a song and it's often just put in out of bad habit and forced. If it flows with the song or the song properly and melodically builds to it (stairway to heaven I know, hangs head in shame) then all the better. But if it's awkward and forced like Love Gun. . Hey, Ace, nevermind...

Wow...never heard this level of praise before for DM! When I first heard it I listened to it from beginning to end and just sat there sorta stunned. It was like a wild car chase with all that energy, not like ANYTHING they'd done in 30 years.

Death Magnetic was the best thing since ride the lightning. This sounds like more of the same,.so.hell to the yeah!

Used perfectly in this song by the Beach Boys... I can't open it due to.shit reception on my phone, but I.am.assuming it's good vibrations

may be one of the coolest instruments ever devised

they've been out for years, so you're in on the ass end. It's not a fad :)

than, actually. If it were then, it would be a totally different meaning and you would be contradicting yourself

hands effin down, they killed it there. Atwas 2112 and Bastille day as well, just amazing. But La Villa on ESL is a work of art

He's a musician's musician. Never with a huge main stream.following, but every good musician and every fan of music likes or has heard of him. Sort of like George Clinton, you may not dig it, but you know and appreciate what he did to change music.Jaco changed bass playing in a way. A lot of guys did and now these meat whistles have just...arghhh. makes you want to.suck.start a glock sometimes.

Thanks! Agreed. I really could have put a lot more work into getting it down and comfortable, but in the context of what we're doing I was like "meh, good enough." If the kid does a good take and Rick or I don't majorly screw up, out it goes. :) I started playing drums when I was 13. I'm 48 now and yor son is still better than I am :laughing guy:I did break my back and leg, but I sucked before that, so... It's cool you play with your kid. I hate the word envy as it sounds petty, but it's all I can think of.I never had kids and would have loved sharing music with them the way my father did with their terrible 50s music :) Good for you bud. That's not something you see much of right now.

I have never known any kid to be that excited about going back to school. How did we go from Tawny Kitean dancing on a Jaguar to kids going back to school?? :) He probably went broke long ago when she bullied him into giving her all his money, then she moved on and started beating the shit out of Chuck Finley, then probably took all his dough

Excellent!! Your boy really did well and you two did a great job I wish you'd sang on the Time Machine tour :)

picked a fine day to stop sniffing glue, eh?

Last time I went to a Hard Rock Cafe was for Happy Hour after work. Didn't order food. That was 4 years ago. Since I haven't been there in 4 years (and there are two in this city), it shows I'm not one to "fall over myself" in there. That particular Hard Rock makes good cocktails and at 50% off, I'm not one to complain. Plus, when I stepped in the place, Rush was on. And they stayed on for 3 more songs. How can this be bad? That's excusable Last time I was in one was in college and that was when Grace Under Pressure was out and the food still sucked. At 19 I was stunned at what the big deal was about the place. I was getting into night clubs in Chicago seeing real bands and being ten feet from real musicians. Plus, my fake ID worked in the clubs :) Man, you hold a grudge! That was over 30 years ago! It's the Italian blood :laughing guy:
