Rick N. Backer Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 One of my personal favorites http://i.imgur.com/CeleugL.png So bad it’s goodHe does have a bit of a sparkle in his eye I saw them back in 2017 at the Garden. I hadn't seen them live since 1991. He sounded great. Axl had learned his lesson, so there were no 5 minutes speeches about what an a-hole Warren Beatty is (a rant he went on the last time I had seen them before playing, IIRC, Double Talkin' Jive). They just methodically went through the setlist. I was supposed to see them this past summer at Fenway. Now it's next summer. He’s got to be around 60 by now. So, better late than never to not be a dick when it comes to doing your job. True, although in his industry he's hardly the first or only person to have had that particular problem in his 20s and 30s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he’s got the extra crybaby curricular activity such as starting waaaaaay past the gig’s showtime and fighting with the audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not now though. The band is very workmanlike. I doubt Slash would tolerate the BS now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony R Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Babymetal. There’s more than a whiff of disgusting schoolgirl fetish going on, in my opinion. It’s creepy and dangerous. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think their popularity is a joke, the music is all gimmick, and recently saw them listed on a respected metal magazine/website as one of the top ten most important metal bands ever. It's f***ing despicable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think their popularity is a joke, the music is all gimmick, and recently saw them listed on a respected metal magazine/website as one of the top ten most important metal bands ever. It's f***ing despicable.I like them, but I can totally see the nature of your criticism - the schoolgirl angle is nasty. I think they`re about 20 now, but that`s not exactly a mitigating argument. For me, I don`t like "heavy metal", I like hard rock. I also like instrumental guitar music as I think most lyrics are terrible and I strongly dislike the vocals of heavier stuff - I just don`t like how they sound. So... Babymetal deliver on the grounds that I can simply enjoy the sound of the female vocals - like I do with Alanis or Go-Gos etc. - but I can enjoy the heaviness of the music, without some growling male taking charge singing words that I can understand but cannot relate to.

That’s Japan for you - weird ass fetish j-girl idol group shit under the guise that it’s “kawaii” (cute). The only reason Babymetal’s considered a band is because of the backing session musicians (but who are virtually invisible in the background). Otherwise, they’re just another processed j-idol group.

Imagine putting, not the original, but the sequel with a Vanilla Ice cameo after Cool As Ice killed his career for good over performing for your fans. That's beyond selfish.

Texas King Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Fleetwood Mac feat. Nicks/Buckingham. Maybe I'll be harsh, but I think their music really sucks and I think Stevie Nicks is a crappy singer. There, I said it.Give me ABBA over them anytime. Early bluesy FM with Green is very good and deserves much more recognition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
