OT: Music Part V

[rik schau]

I was listening to CHOM this morning and I was a bit surprised to hear that Styx still wasn't even nominated once to the Rock Hall of Fame. Meanwhile there are some artists getting in that are... well.. weird choices. They've been eligible since 1998!

The hall of fame is a joke,meaningless.

I'm truly saddened to hear about Jeff Beck's passing. He was the best of the bunch and still performing and doing great. Meningitis, especially the bacterial kind, is deadly.

Sad to say farewell to one of the greatest guitarists to ever have existed

It's pretty much pay to play at this point. You'll notice, the artists who get in are most of the time on a promo run for some new release.

I don't really care all that much about it or most of the artists that get in to be honest. Only a few of them are getting my attention, like Rush. It's cool that they did it while Neil Peart was still alive

I've been binging on Jeff Beck videos since I heard. Nothing I watched isn't great, some of it is otherwordly, he was still at it lately.



Of course I can't let this one slip by,

fake news, she's still alive as is his father

You can say that about a lot of bands,revolving doors. Check out Deep Purple,what a joke,same as Sabbath.

No need to preach to me being an activist and all,pretty tight with Pete too,know them?

I was not preaching about activism as Lynott was not an activist....not sure you know much about the band at all.

You can't compare Lizzy playing without Lynott to Sabbath and Purple who had rotating singers but none of whom were prominent writers in the band. Lynott formed the band and wrote all of their songs as well as being the lead vocalist and bass player.

The current iteration of Thin Lizzy doesn't have a single original member lol......they are essentially a cover band. Lynott WAS Thin Lizzy and for the band to ever have carried on without him was asinine and a transparent money grab. You couldn't pay me to watch these clowns.

This is what happens to those who don’t make it in the business. Or who play Stairway to Heaven in guitar stores.

So many killer moments: the guy tapping out, the classic grab from the pant belt, the store employee using the guy’s head to open the front door and the shoe toss at the end.

Good show? what type of people made up the crowd? I saw therm back in the 70's,crowd was mostly under 40.
One of the oldest running bands,good stuff!

It was a very good show,crowd was around my age ,62

Always loved this song. For some reason, it was on my mind most of last week — I finally got around to playing it this afternoon. Something about it, just draws me in.

My friend and I used to play Patio Lanterns as we drove to work and pretended it was the theme song to a sitcom about us lol

I wouldn't pay to see them either,they simply were on the bill with many other bands,and they had a few geezers in the band.The few songs I know from them and it sounded good,that's all I care. Saw the original lineup decades ago but don't recall a thing except I saw them,back then a lot of people were blotted on blotter.lol.

If you've come in search of finding a virgin to sacrifice,you may have come to the right place. lol

The only meth head in America without a gun I guess.lol.

sorry but can you delete this video; you are in a wrong thread, because this one is about music, not about religious Christians propaganda

Love Max Webster, imo way better than any Kim Mitchell solo stuff.

Oh good! Klingon music.

I like them, they've got the PMJB vibe.
