I hope Soundgarden is in that top 5.
No, interestingly enough I haven't listened to a Soundgarden album for some reason. You'll have to give me recommendations!
My top 5 are
GNR
The Who
Oasis
Interpol
Hanson
The Beatles used to be my #1 but I listened to them so much I burned out on them, but they deserve a special mention.

start and ISE. there must be more from this source, because already the previous vid (WTTJ) was from the same source.They sound fantastic. I wish the whole show was taped!
It was by people for the band. I'm guessing we will see a home video release and live album at some point.
Nice! They can't take my money quick enough.

It's definitely not one of my favorite shows but that's what put her on the map.
I've endured some forgettable horror movies just because she's in them.
She was very talented. Unfortunate that she turned into a trainwreck. Should've been at Natalie Portman level but major depression, drug use and getting mixed in with that group of attention whores(Hilton, Lohan, Kardashians,etc.) years ago pretty much altered whatever path she was on.
Just her voice can get my juices flowing.
If someone deserves a major comeback...it's her.
The O.C. was one of my favorites when it was on. I had a small girl crush on her, but I never really followed her in anything else.

Your 2nd favorite band is The Who? That's interesting.
Wont Get Fooled Again definitely one of the greatest songs ever...
Yup! My top 5 bands are an interesting collection.
#46 Re: Guns N' Roses » Shout out to Philadelphia fans... » 480 weeks ago
Philly crowds are boisterous for sure. I went to the NHL draft when it was in Philly and the crowd booed the commissioner for every single pick. One of the media members said it the most energetic crowd in his 30 years of covering the draft.
I only wish I attended those shows. I was too young and didn't know who GNR were yet.

While it may be scary to some, its his "telling it like it is" strategy that does it. Even though he is NOT a 'common man', Reagan had massive appeal on this as well. People could relate to what he was saying. You knew he was genuine. I am not comparing Trump to Reagan I am just saying he appeals to the average person and if he can get these types to vote for him...he wins and I don't care if CNN tells me he is hated in every galaxy from the Milky Way to the Hubble Deep Field...he wins.
I do like how on the dem side we have Sanders who also refuses to be bought off....but he has a problem...the dem primaries are rigged. He CANT win. Period.
I can see how his "telling it like it is" strategy appeals to people, but the problem I have is I don't find him genuine. I also don't think he knows what he is talking about half of the time.
Obama sits around approving lists of people to kill in drone strikes. Some(most likely all) of these strikes kill innocent people. I expect Trump to do the same. Being president requires making tough decisions. Reagan's bombing of Libya killed civilians, including babies. Sad but it sent a message. How many more innocent Americans were killed in bombings supported and funded by Libya on Reagan's watch after that strike? ZERO.
The difference for me between Obama and Trump is Obama doesn't actively seek out innocent civilians. For the record, I think it is still horrible. That strategy that leads to the death of innocents whether planned or not is likely going to create more people that become radicalized in their hatred for America.
He wants to fix this problem and can you really blame him for how he handled his business in the past? The current system practically begs for corporations to send their jobs overseas and they get all sorts of incentives for doing so.
It all comes down to why should I believe he is sincere about fixing this problem when he lies and changes his positions so frequently? He may be an outsider, but to me he is an insincere as most politicians. He just tells people what they want to hear.
Hillary sure as hell isn't going to change this. Neither will any of Trump's opponents. At least Trump is willing to give it a shot.
I understand why some people are concerned. We've entered uncharted waters as far as presidential elections go.
I think he deserves a chance. Give him one term.
You're right she won't and neither will his opponents. As mentioned above, I don't believe Trump will change anything either so for me he doesn't have an edge there. I just think he is a disaster waiting to happen while the others (minus Cruz) are more capable leaders. Believe me it pains me to think I have to vote for Hillary and keep the status quo, but I think Trump and his side show act are that much worse.

This is how they described Bush in 2000.
Obama was described like this in 2008. I'm not buying what the media is selling me anymore. I know why they don't want him in there and it has nothing to do with the 4 year cycle of scare tactics they are rolling out once again.
They sold that long before Trump ever decided to run.
There were violent protests at Bush events in 2004 over Iraq. Media didn't harp too much on that...just the conspiracy sites saying we were all about to be thrown into camps.
Anyone check that 'breaking news' CNN story earlier today? Protesters block street causing major traffic jam to stop a Trump rally that apparently no one wants to see. If anyone read more than the headline, you saw it was a couple dozen people standing in the middle of the road with a couple cars blocking it while thousands wanted to see Trump.
Like I said, I'm not buying their bill of goods this time. They fooled me one too many times.
I can't really buy any media conspiracy theories against Trump. They have been invaluable to his campaign with the over the top amount of coverage he receives. Sure, they can be critical of him, but they've also been his biggest asset.

I would love to see Axl with AC/DC even if it is just for a show or even a few songs.
