#211 Re: Guns N' Roses » UYI Box tracklist unveiled? » 134 weeks ago
Late to the party here, but I echo the sentiments that the Ritz concert is awesome! It really captures their essence during their ascent to stardom before things got completely bloated. Don't get me wrong, I love it all. But the difference is so apparent. They were still one extremely cohesive unit. Too bad Steven couldn't stick around, but Matt mixed in without skipping a beat. I watched the show by myself and then put it on while playing with my 5 year old daughter. My wife wasn't too thrilled with that when she got home. I was responsible and turned the volume down or skipped over the profanities, at least I tried. I haven't listened to much else though from the box set.
My 8 year old loves metal. Slipknot fan. The deal with him I have is if he repeats a profanity at school or home the music is banned. To be fair it's worked pretty well!

Lies version of You're Crazy is his vocal peak.
His visual peak was Farm Aid. No one ever looked cooler than he did that night.
15 year old me thought he was the baddest motherfucker walking the planet.....

While looking for that....I spotted this pic.
Always liked this one back in the day...one of many pin-ups on my wall in 88-91.
A great advertisement for that shirt....

I liked the cowboy boots outside the jeans look although never quite brave enough to try this! ?

The other thing that might tempt me is if they created a line up with some really good supporting or headlining acts. Like motley crue and def leopard. Or Muse and Royal Blood. But I always seem to b underwhelmed with their choices.

The sad thing is they will easily fill Hyde park. Enough casual punters with the £££ who will go down for a few beers or wine on a summer evening to watch SCOM, PC etc and hang out with friends. Lazy management knows where to find the low hanging fruit!
To be honest I'd be tempted simply as I think we're running out of opportunities to see this band. If they got back Izzy and Steven or Matt that would probably tip the scales as would a new album but we all know that won't happen given the timescales needed for a release.

Oh, hang on too busy suing other companies to release music

I see GNR are playing Hyde Park in London next year. Maybe, just maybe we'll get a couple of tracks before then.

Quite a bit of commentary about the bass drum sound...
#218 Re: The Sunset Strip » Metallica - Lux Aterna » 135 weeks ago
Pantera with Zakk would be more exciting than Metallica for me

They're doing a world tour with no UK dates? FFS.
They are headlining two days of Download
