Music General Music Discussion Catch-All

[JLowe]

Was tipped off (via Instagram of an old Texas/punk photographer) of an online zine archive with some downloads of some US punk zines. Slash is probably the biggest name in the archive.

It's always fun when the trolls and bots do not fundamentally understand what they're attacking:

 

[Death From Above]

Noted apolitical figure, Roger Waters

[Curt McGirt]

Holy shit. I'm afraid downloading all those issues of Slash will destroy the space on my computer, but really really really fucking want to do it. It's CLAUDE BESSY, MAN!!!

Not that pretty much anyone posting here is in their target demo but Panic at the Disco will end after their upcoming European tour

Lead singer Brendon Urie announced that he and is wife are expecting their first child and he is going "focus on family"

Since it was basically a Urie solo project disguised as a band - I am assuming he is just gonna start eventually releasing music under his own name now.

He's also being accused of several inappropriate acts with underage fans

Saw them once and they were among the worst live acts I've ever seen. Then again everything besides their first album was really bad as well but live the songs sounded way worse.

I actually learned something from watching the Royal Rumble last night and that thing is Hardy blows.

The first red flag was them being announced as country/rock.

Second red flag was having no bass player.

Was willing to give them benefit of the doubt because bands sometimes don't get a good setup for a short performance like this, but YouTube'd one of their videos and it sucked just as bad.

Normally I don't like to bag on music I don't like, but I make exceptions for cuntry rock bands with douches that look like Zak Bagans fronting them.

When I saw they were setting up for a musical at, I went to bed.

My friends and my consensus was that this was a metal band who couldn't hack it, so they switched to country.   Like a harder and worse version of Hootie.

The Oak Ridge Boys remain the only band that played during a show that worked for me.

Didn't want to see them in that situation, but it wasn't embarrassing.

[odessasteps]

Even though my dad liked country, we were not staying for Joe Ely and Delbert McLinton after the 86 Bash in Philadelphia.  

[Death From Above]

Les Claypool's Flying Frog Brigade just announced their first tour in 20 years for this summer.

[Dolfan in NYC]

OK Go is getting sued by cereal maker Post, because...  Post wants the name?

Other than America the Beautiful at Wrestlemania, I've never wanted, needed, or liked any concert at a wrestling show.  The only reason I ever like those is because they got people like Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin to sing what I think is the best, most appropriate patriotic song.

Ozzy Osbourne is retiring from performing.  

He released a statement yesterday saying he was too weak to go on despite a lot of treatments.  All tour dates cancelled, all tickets will be refunded.   

[Death From Above]

Sad but not surprising based on photos I've seen of him over the last year. Old age is finally catching up to the prince of darkness.

Between being in restaurants and other people’s vehicles, I swear I have heard Panama by Van Halen 5 times this week.

It was on the work radio last night haha. The real radio catch though was them playing the original "Hazy Shade of Winter" which I swear I've never heard before -- only the incredible Bangles version that is one of the best covers of all time. (And has the video that shows that all four Bangles were the hottest ladies in town back then, with only the footage of Jami Gertz stepping on their territory. Oofta...)

Is coming out that Dave/Trugoy The Dove from De La Soul has passed and I just wanna cry...

Rest in Peace Plug 2
