I don't care about those who are hailing now Bach cause he's friends with Axl. Had he joined VR, the same guys would have hated the shit outta him. I think VR could have been the greatest GN'R tribute band of the world with Baz - thanks to God and Slash, they decided not to sign him. It's great that the guy found Axl (or Axl found him) and he gets some media attention. I can only hope that he'll rejoin Skid Row once gain, cause that was the shit. Slave is one of my Top10 favourite albums of all time 9

Agreed.


bba

This is what I find odd about you BBA, if you think that Skid Row was the shit, then how can you possibly call Baz a has been.  If he was to get back together with Skid Row, the music he's making now would sound the same as he is making now.   Just doesn't make sense here.

As far as Baz hooking up with Axl as a back up plan, I don't think so.  They were very good friends back in the day and probably lost touch and then as per Baz, Axl texted him one day and then the rest is recent history. 

Buzzsaw, it's not hard to find out someones phone number, he could have just asked around for it, contacted Baz's management, maybe they have mutual friends, etc.

MASCOUTAH, Ill. - Two hugs equals two days of detention for 13-year-old Megan Coulter. The eighth-grader was punished for violating a school policy banning public displays of affection when she hugged two friends Friday.

"I feel it is crazy," said Megan, who was to serve her second detention Tuesday after classes at Mascoutah Middle School.

"I was just giving them a hug goodbye for the weekend," she said.

Megan's mother, Melissa Coulter, said the embraces weren't even real hugs '” just an arm around the shoulder and slight squeeze.

"It's hilarious to the point of ridicule," Coulter said. "I'm still dumbfounded that she's having to do this."

District Superintendent Sam McGowen said that he thinks the penalty is fair and that administrators in the school east of St. Louis were following policy in the student handbook.

It states: "Displays of affection should not occur on the school campus at any time. It is in poor taste, reflects poor judgment, and brings discredit to the school and to the persons involved."

Coulter said she and her husband told their daughter to go ahead and serve her detentions because the only other option was a day of suspension for each skipped detention.

"We don't agree with it, but I certainly don't want her to get in more trouble," Coulter said.

The couple plan to attend the next school board meeting to ask board members to consider rewording the policy or be more specific in what is considered a display of affection.

"I'm just hoping the school board will open their eyes and just realize that maybe they shouldn't be punishing us for hugs," Megan said.

Now this is a little rediculous.  I can totally understand what the school is trying to do and I would go for it for kissing and hanging on each other, making out, etc but hugging, come on.  My 4 year old hugs his friends in school.

I read this article and started to hear in my head, if you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding, how can you have any pudding if you dont eat your meat....LOL

#1556 Re: The Garden » Fatal shooting at Finnish school » 991 weeks ago

In reading this I couldn't help but think of Columbine.

They did it because of students treating them bad, this guy says "eliminate all who I see unfit" and "death and killing is not a tragedy... Not all human lives are important or worth saving."

Hmmm, are these people who have wronged him or he just picked out of the school that he felt, should die because they are unfit what does that mean??   Not living according to what he felt their standards should be, doing wrong to him...what?   

My heart goes out to the parents of these kids murdered and the principal as well.   Trajedy like this doesn NOT have to happen if this insane person would have sought out some help.    One thing that is a positive is that he killed himself, instant justice, although I am sure his family is hurting and now has the stigma of what he did attached to them.

Edited?   What would they edit?  I don't think I have ever heard of that before, editing a cd.

I'm guessing he means censoring words like "Fuck"....

Yep, exactly that. In order to sell your CD at Walmart, they have to get an edited version with no swearing whatsoever.

Well that's no fun shake.gif

Yeah that was a shocker, I wonder if it'll last though because I think him being with his sponser is going to get ugly.  I love when he pulls the fire alarm and he says how he is resorting back to high school...LOL

I am sooooo glad he was able to erase him cleaning the boat, that had me on edge the whole show until that part.   I am so glad he made a formal complaint against Doakes, not that Doakes is wrong but still..LOL.
