Having seen Alice Cooper last week, it made me realise what an awesome cover Megadeth did of No More Mr Nice Guy

Dawn Of The Dead. Fun movie. Kids didn't think it was that great. They didn't like some of the poor decisions that the characters made - especially the chick with the dog.

Just compare to Twisted Sister. Saw them in 1985, and then again in 2003. EXACT. SAME. SHOW. Embarrassingly so.

Steel Panther is a fun show. Very Kiss'esque in that it's pretty much rehearsed like live theater, but they change it up enough from show to show.

How the hell do I post clips and images in the new forum?

Found this one in my 'to listen to' pile and I'm lovin' it. I'd heard a few bits and pieces of it at times but never sunk in to it until now. Has everything I like in an album. Don't get the bland comments. Hooky, melodic, well produced. Lyrics are decent. Couple of GNR sounding songs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hFtZdscKKY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2KA7ibs5gM&index=18&list=PLOGpGVuQ9ZhzHf2ANfOW0WAWydisrwo2W

Did anyone get this? What's it like?

Forgot to mention, Spencer came out for the last song The Angels did which was Can't Shake It, which was pretty damn good.

I believe it was Dai Pritchard on slide, and he did a solid job. Interestingly my daughter has had a bit to do with Bob Spencer in the studio and he is offering tonnes of advice. Seems a great bloke. One think he keeps on banging on about is stage presence, which I'm not sure he has in too much abundance at the moment. I guess the Tatts aren't really that kind of band. But if you take a look at the Dogs Are Talking clip he certainly had a lot back then.

Nope. I was just looking at the Beats From A Single Drum CD which I always saw as a solo CD. Weirdly, the cover and spine label it as a Rose Tattoo CD, but the disc itself is labelled Angry Anderson. Also, Branded would have been good as well, but that's more a personal choice I guess. It wasn't a hit, but I recall it being kind of popular.

I was debating whether to watch either of those two movies. Transformers is pretty old hat now - best thing that came from them is the ride at Universal Studios which is pretty wicked. Would have been nice to wrap them up in to 3 movies and call it a day. Same with Planet Of The Apes. My favorite is the Mark Wahlberg movie. Also love the original. I've seen the more recent movies and they are a bit yawny. I'll probably see these. Hopefully going in with low hopes will hold me pleasantly surprised...

A review of Rose Tattoo & The Angels Rose Tattoo Sadly most of the band have dies of cancers, so Angry is the only one left. Bob Spencer on guitar was cool, if not weird as he played on 3 of the best Angels albums. Angry was great. Hard to believe he is 70. Missed a few notes, but on a scale of Vince Neil to 10 he would be around a 7 or 8. Sounded great, and full of life advice during the show. I was kinda hoping for Bound For Glory, and I Wish, but they played neither. I'd never seen them before so it's one to tick off the list. Better than expected. The Angels I've seen them probably around 8 or 9 times in my life. Saw them with Doc just before he left the second time and they were pretty crap. Saw them a couple of years ago for the first time with Dave Gleeson and they were amazing. This time they were OK. Dave is amazing. Full of energy, non stop jumping around and playing the part. Recently we had a show on TV here on Michael Hutchence labeling him the last rock star. I say take a look at Dave. Lots of Hutchence'esque to him. John Brewster's son Sam. on bass, John and Rick were there and Nick Norton on drums. so really it was the Brewster show to a degree. Without going through and matching songs to albums I'd say we would have been lucky to hear a couple of songs off the three albums John didn't play on. Kind of selfish for me. No We Gotta Get Out Of This Place No Nature Of The Beast No Did You Hurt Somebody No When The Time Comes No Don't Waste My Time No Dogs Are Talking all hits in Australia and I get that you can't please everyone, but seriously, NONE of the above? Also Eat City - no Eat City.... Couple of tributes, to Doc, George Young and Chris Bailey It was a good show, but a little stale. Felt like they were going through the motions again like that last time I saw them with Doc. Dave did what he could, but the Brewsters are old, and act it. I get Rick's stage thing where he stands there with no emotion. Used to be cool, now it's kinda weird, especially in a small venue up close and personal. We had great seats and got some pretty great footage. I never record whole songs, I pick 4 or 5 per set and take half of the songs so I can look back at it later, but for the rest of the time I enjoy the show. So here are a few half songs from the show... https://youtu.be/JXaTuzvzKnA https://youtu.be/HRXHlW-EcgI https://youtu.be/oxiy9t0q8IM

Same.Thanks

More recently I see the first track as a lead in Some great tracks above though- thanks

Never really got in to Fozzy. I remember they did a covers album which was well received. At the time they started moving on seriously, their style of music I was gravitating away from a bit. Surprised they're still going along. I always thought it was a bit of fun from a wrestler lol

I dunno, I;m not gonna get into the whole genre thing again. I'm cool with what they brought out. Different to the last couple but I have no issues with bands taking different directions. I judge the music on how good it is, regardless of what style it is. I like the songs,but I like the last album songs better. They grabbed me more and made me happier

It has a lot of new wave 80's pop elements to it for me. If not that, it's mostly not hard rock. AOR, maybe pop/rock. Nothing wrong with that, just not what people were expecting. At least the difference between this and the last album isn't as vast as what Hardcore Superstar did.

Generally I find the first song to be a road rocking, or sometimes quite heavy song, that is pretty average. Most of the time I find myself skipping it pretty quickly and starting the album from track 2 Having said that, I've decided to make a playlist of openers. Decadance Dance - Extreme Monkey Business - Skid Row Detroit Rock City - Kiss Wild Side - Motley Crue etc Throw 'em at me What other songs should I whack on?

Yeah, to each their own, but it seems that you simply like it more than others. Not many people slamming it. From my ratings, after a few more listens, I've really taken to Shit City, which surprised me. Also Into The Great Unknown I'd now rate as good

I don't mind what was posted. For me Europe pretty much was over after Prisoners In Paradise The first JT solo album was amazing, second one average. These sound a mix between JT solo and Europe to me, so I'll pick it up.

Your explanation as to why it isn't working properly basically tells me that it sucks as it doesn't work like every other search function ever. But thanks. I'll try again.

Listened 4 or 5 times now and I like this album. I don't love it, and won't, but I may grow to love some more songs. For me at the moment..... Great Best Of The Broken is my favorite Blind Leads The Blind Good Bastards Of Society Shit City Redefined Do You Want It Average Time Is On Our Side Eye Of The Storm Into The Great Unknown

I've listened to this album 4 or 5 times now and I like it. I admit I had high expectations based on the first 2 songs and when I heard the full album I was underwhelmed. But I listened more and I like most tracks a lot. Normally I'm a ballad fan, but a couple on this album are pretty average for me. <Maybe they are really slow growers. But then I though the same for I Still Love You by Kiss and I still hate that song, so I guess some songs just don't do it for me when they do for others. I find it interesting that most here have called HEAT's new album average and then come back after further listens and liked it. Seems that luxury isn't afforded all bands. Regardless, the fisrt two songs released are the standouts for me - killer songs.

I just did a search for Steelheart and it came back with no hits So I went to threads I have posted in and scrolled down to the topic. Normally I just wouldn't have bothered but only did so to make sure that there was in fact a Steelheart thread and that the search function does indeed suck. Just restricts the use of the forum and therefore my contributions which are now minimal...

Multiple searches because it isn't working properly. I just gave up ans stopped using it Just reply to anything interesting that comes up in unread content now...
