Isn't a good song or what? Sting sings too. The intro new age electronic, à la Vangelis or Pink Floyd. His deadly riff, best of the world. We are hyponotised by this riff so well delivered, enough crisp and clean. And Mark Knopfler who is among the nicest guy on earth had to say he's sorry if it was offensive but he's been friend with gays since ever and the lyrics of the song, I mean, it's two dude working on delivery and the tell their story, they are characters not representing Knopfler's opinion, I mean, we got embarrassed for making a one day shit to Knopfler, the classyest guy of rock and roll alive. And that was done with our taxes, all canadians.

Still can't believe they stopped playing that song,ludicrous! Why stop there then? so many offensive songs exist,would have made Adolph very proud:shakehead

New Tool release of their classic Opiate that has been re-work and extended in length and will be re-released as part of a Blu-ray with a short film and a 46 page book.

Song is now called Opiate² or Opiate squared

Have any of you been following Call me Caroline on Youtube as she listens for the first time to the Beatles and gives her opinion on them?

She's a super engaging redhead Aussie who can't help but make you laugh and cry as she listens to and dissects each song. She tries to predict the style based on the title, and usually gets it wrong and cracks up. Her admiration grows with each new album and she has just finished with Abbey Road. It's the first time I see her so overwhelmed by what she just heard.

Worth every second if you want to refresh your Beatlemania. Here are the first and last episodes. The only drawback, and it's not her fault, is she can only play the songs in short 5 second sections cause of copyright issues.

I used to own decent chops in my playing days but if I could gain this kind of form, I wouldn’t be able to leave my kit. That’s a ton of hours of work (and immeasurable talent, no doubt) but soooooo worth it.

The two drummers I witnessed with these kind of snare rudiments and all around chops were Buddy Rich who I saw at PDA and Billy Cobham, at the Jazz Fest. Cobham’s 1973 album revolutionized drumming after Rich had been the crown holder.

Nope! Find it hard to believe in this day and age that a white western type woman is not familiar with the Beatles,but then again she is Australian so you never know.:laugh:

Happy 76th birthday to David Gilmour today. My all time favorite musician AINEC..

Love these restored rehearsal videos from the P.U.L.S.E. tour which were released recently.





One of the few bands that were meticulous with sound when performing live,be it Floyd,Gilmore or Waters,always excellent sound.

Makes me want to watch ''The wall'' again but not sure I got the stones to take what it takes to fully appreciate the film:(

Always thought that drumming was the most taxing, depending on song and style of course and artist.
How'd you like to have one of these? seems satisfying to get that pent up energy out,and just asking but what he does at the end,hurts the hands?



Special suit with sound effects,unique, never seen a drummer play ''himself'' :laugh: A great drummer and second to none for entertainment imo.:thumbu::thumbu:

Always like Buddy Rich, first time I saw him as a kid at my gf's high-school way back when,very impressive. Not familiar with Billy Cobham but sound pretty good to me.

She's familiar with them, she just never listened to the whole collection. That's why she's doing this.

New Ghost album is great. If youre into 80’s metal or 80’s music for that matter then its perfect for you. A really fun band in my opinion.
