Damn, sorry to hear that man; my condolences. 😔

Throwing myself into music/HH has gotten me through several REALLY rough patches over the last 9 years or so…

Thanks for the well wishes. Everyone has their own way of grieving and mine comes across as being somewhat emotionally detached I think. For the most part I am trying to carry on as normal but obvs not working as got so much shit to sort out with paperwork, funeral and insurance etc.

Trying to just keep myself occupied mostly with my usual things like music, movies and video games.

Just my way of dealing with things, and think its this same kind of level headedness that got me through the whole cancer bullshit, and why I never let it get me down.

Mate, I lost my Mother when I was 25 (cancer 45). She was a single Mother and I'm an only child, so it was always just me and her.

I have absolutely no hesitation in saying that she was my best friend. 

I'm 51 now and still miss my Mum every single day. 

I hope you're not going through this alone mate.

Lost my dad when I was 2. He was 38 and died from electricution. So yeah, while I do have three siblings, my mother had to raise all of them on her own. The oldest was just short of 15 when he died, and the youngest was 9 months old.

While I obviously do feel sad I lost my dad, I never really got a chance to know him but I have known my mum for 52 years, so yeah it hits hard.

    • Calling for you, Emaheeval & Gone bad on the debut Widowmaker album were all Desperado songs. Of course the Widowmaker debut was released before Desperado's album finally got a release even though it was recorded after. The thing that always made me laugh was that when it was first released as Bloodied but unbowed with three extra tracks to what was the original planned tracklist, I bought it from Dee Sniders website, so was fully endorsed by Dee. But years later when Deadline released it under its original name, Ace, without the three extra songs, Dee claimed it had never been released before ... selective memory?

    • Did not have "liking an album from The Offspring" on my 2024 bingo card, but there we are. Not sure if it's pop, punk, or something else... catchy though.      
    • No no no!  Worst thing in the 80s (musicwise), Modern Talking.
    • Really liking this one bar the Journey cover, which whilst not terrible , doesn’t really do a lot for me. The rest though is rather excellent 
    • Desperado was weak. Couple of ok songs, but that's it. Remember one album was unreleased and when it finally came out as a bootleg or whatever, expectations were not met. But that doesn't matter when what TS did was so killer.
    • I don't really know what this album is. Sounds a bit all over the place and to be completely fair, a whole lot less cohesive and/or structured than the AI album the dude put out earlier this year. Is it still a band, or just the main dude doing his own thing?  It's not a bad album, as such, just seems a bit all over the place to me in every regard. 
    • I'll trust you on that one. I only had the Desperado album for a short while so my memory of it is a bit rusty. Maybe that's why I parted ways with it, as it was more or less doubling up? I remember I got either a great trade or good sale out of it, hence why it departed quick. 
    • Desperado isn't heavier. A bunch of the songs were actually re-recorded for the first Widowmaker album. Desperado and the first Widowmaker are for me not that much different to Twisted Sister. Stand by for pain though was Dee trying to move into darker more "modern" territory, and can see why that would not appeal to everyone.
