here's another one...A leather/suede Jacket with fringe!!!and whats on that fringe...well little crosses if you were handy enough...they didn't stay on long though....

 

Tony Iommi used to wear a jacket like that, with tons of little metal crosses hanging off of the fringes. I always wondered if people in the crowd tore them off for souvenirs if he leaned too close to the edge of the stage!

 

I thought I saw pictures of Ozzy wearing something like that in the late 70's.

 

Who knows, maybe all the Sabbath guys had one of 'em, like a uniform...

I think the picture I'm thinking of was inside the Black Sabbath the Ozzy years 3 disc set.

I think it was suppose to be on the Never Say Die tour with Van Halen opening.

Why thank you, and when I do wear them one of them is a gold hoop. Sometiems I do wear a long cross or other hanging stuff. I agree Paul, it doesn't look that great with short hair though. Unbalanced or something...

 

A woman I hired a few years ago recently said to me that she had a feeling she was in the right place when she noticed my abundance of ear jewelry during her interview. B)

If you watched all twenty-seven hours of Live Aid (well, it seemed like twenty seven hours anyway) just to see Judas Priest, Black Sabbath and Queen

Did it seem that long in person, or was it just for us TV viewers?

Seemed to go pretty quick for the most part, other than the heat.

I do remember thinking it was kinda cool that Phil Collins played in London, got on a plane and was able to make it to Philly in time to finish out the show there. Man, he musta been tired that night!

      Atlantic - Another World

      By Captain Cowardly · Posted

      Not a bad song, but the vocals feel pretty weak to my ears. Still I guess at least it's not autotuned and processed beyond recognition. I still have a feeling this won't be a patch on the debut.

      Reset - Runaway Heart I can’t find a damn thing about this band on the interwebs! Does anyone out there know of a website or FB page for them? Is there a CD coming out?    @Mr.AOR @Stefan @Geoff @heavyharmonies

      I hate that Collective Soul is considered alternate. When they were popular they were promoted as active rock, which I'm not sure what that is but it sounds a lot closer what they do than alternate rock. To me, alternative is REM and Pavement and the like.

      The reason I mentioned Alter Bridge and Scott Stapp's solo stuff is because I don't think it's too far off from Creed. Myles Kennedy obviously has a more dynamic voice than Stapp but musically they're very similar. At the end of the day as I've said I love this site and if Dan decided to strip it down to the bare bones and build a site from the ground up starting with Journey and Poison and I would still support it.

      I get the idea of keeping the site pure but if you look at the genres of music on HH listed on the site not even all of them fit into the AOR/Melodic Rock sub genres and if you submit a cd there's even more categories. If the site was strictly AOR & Melodic Rock it would still be an amazing database but it's also, sleaze, glam, southern rock, blues rock, hard rock and modern hard rock and there's a lot more to those genres to explore.

      My two cents... This site's database was probably the single biggest factor in me getting into the AOR/melodic rock subgenre, and I was like a kid in a candy shop for a while because I knew *almost* every artist on here would appeal to me and fit what I was looking for. Finding new music you enjoy is one of life's greatest pleasures and for a while this site was my go-to. I'll always be grateful to Dan and the rest of the contributors for that. That being said, I worry that it will lose a lot of that appeal if it just starts adding a bunch of artists that play rock music but do not fit in the AOR/melodic rock subgenre. There are a few bands on here that are already pushing it and if every artist with two guitars and a big snare drum gets admitted, what's separating this database from any other? We are all fans of a type of music that is quite "niche" these days but that's what makes the site special. tl;dr I vote no on all of them. I vote no on Creed twice.

      There is always gonna be a fine line between what is an is not gonna cut the mustard on here. As I said before, Cornell is an amazing singer and the stuff he did with Audioslave was certainly deserving of a place on the site as there was so much 70s hard rock/metal to their sound. But Soundgarden certainly does not fit beyond a few songs here and there. And his solo stuff is all over the place genre wise. His James Bond theme, you know my name is one of my favourite hard rock songs of all time and if he had released a whole album in that style, I would whole heartedly support that being on the site, but as much as I really like his Carry on album, it just does not belong here. And I would be really against stuff like Pearl Jam and Creed not because I flat out hate them, but just because I don't think they really fit. There are bands I love I would not want on here, and there are bands I hate who I fully support them being on here (The Darkness for example). The other thing to consider, as it was mentioned by someone, it does not matter if certain members of a band have albums on here, that does not mean there other bands belong on here. Audioslave yes, Soundgarden and RATM, no. Scott Stapp (can't really comment) but Creed, no. Mother Love Bone, yes. Pearl Jam, no. And with some of the other bands mentioned, like The Cars. It's a slippery slope, as where do you stop? Should Dire Straits be on here? Bruce Springsteen? Huey Lewis? Mellencamp? All artists I really like, but don't think they have a place.
