However, they showed the kid get shot, but I'm not sure he actually died. A big twist though. I think he lives but all hell breaks loose with the Dharma people on a manhunt for Sayid.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
They've said a couple times, "If it happened, it happened. You can't change anything." But Sayid wasn't there to get told any of that.
I think it's going to turn out that he keeps doing things trying to change the future (present, I guess) but something always goes wrong.

Anybody not familiar with Tad Doyle, don't really judge him by how he sounds singing on these. The Tad album "Inhaler" is a really good, fairly unknown album from the grunge era.
Of course I haven't heard him in 15 years, so maybe that's just what he sounds like now.

Anybody who is interested and didn't see the Shooter Jennings/Jamey Johnson Crossroads episode, the whole thing is online now.

There's also a Shooter Unplugged set there now.
#584 Re: The Sunset Strip » Who do you like more? Beatles or Stones? » 920 weeks ago
I prefer the Stones, but I prefer gritty blues based rock and roll to most other music, and the Stones didn't invent that, but they pretty much perfected it.
The thing about The Beatles is that it's basically 2 bands. Early Beatles and late Beatles are completely different, and there are a lot of people who love one era and can't stand the other.

Yeah, I'm an oldschool outlaw guy for the most part. Any of the Highwaymen (Kristofferson should be talked about like Dylan is when you discuss songwriters).
One of the coolest projects I've ever heard, and I'm sure some of you have it, is Rebel Meets Rebel. Dimebag, Vinnie Paul, and Rex from Pantera with David Alan Coe on vocals. Who else could have wrote "Cowboys Do More Dope"?!
I really like Pantera and really like DAC, but I didn't care for Rebel Meets Rebel. I thought they should have met somewhere in the middle rather than just having Coe singing like Coe over Pantera playing like Pantera.

CD is Zeppelin II compared to ANYTHING the old band members have put out since the old era GN'R.
I don't agree with that, but I'm curious to know what you'd think if you were to compare it to a best 14 songs from any of the other guys. A best of Slash, Duff, or Izzy 94-2008. Treated like that was the only music they had put out for the last 15 years.
Would you be able to piece together something like that that you think would stand up to CD?
I ask that to Axlin or anyone else that feels the same way. I posed that question to somebody in real life and they thought it was an interesting way to look at it.
I do like CD better than both VR or Snakepit albums (although once it gets some more longevity on it, who knows). But I can pick and choose songs from those 4 albums to make an album that I'd like more than CD.
#588 Re: Guns N' Roses » 'Chinese Democracy' Officially Drops out of the Billboard Top 200 » 920 weeks ago
There was a point in the late 90's where anything 80's related was considered uncool, and for some people, I'm sure GNR were a part of that. That was well after 93 though. GNR were still considered cool through most of the grunge era.
What was that Jennifer Love Hewitt movie? The party sucks, then a drunk dude jumps up on a stage to blast Paradise City, at first people are making fun of him, but pretty soon everybody's into it.
That's really as close as GNR ever has gotten to being considered uncool, people might have made a crack, then went "Oh, I love that song".
And for the record, waaay too many 80's bands that were already dead or dying blame grunge for their demise.

Now THAT i like. Another somewhat newer country singer I like (wouldn't fit in VR but I heard him on the radio) is Chris Knight. He has a song Enough rope worth checking out, sounds like John Mellencamp.
Thanks for posting that BLS, he sounds good, I'm a Willie Nelson fan & do enjoy country from time to time. I might pick up his album. Sorry to get OT, we should start a Country Music thread.
Staying off topic... sorry. You seem to be able to stream that entire Jamey Johnson album on his website. I'm probably running to Best Buy tomorrow to pick it up. Thanks BLS.

One of my co-workers listened to country radio constantly at that time, and I remember thinking what a shame it is that I only heard it one time, but I heard a lot of garbage over and over. I haven't watched any music video channels in years, so it is possible the video was a hit and I just missed it.
Evidently Shooter is doing a CMT Crossroads this Monday. I have no idea who Jamey Johnson is but I'm kinda diggin on this song after half a listen.
