If you are looking for bluesy virtuoso leeds out of Pete Townshend in the 60s/70s you are completely missing the point of what that band and he were trying accomplish, creatively. You wouldn't be the first though.
His soloing got "better" as the years went by (and he ran out of grade A...
She’s very good, and have seen her numerous times live. Excellent performer, and great at crafting a show. Seems like the genuine article, and definitely has a message/vision in her art, which I respect, since so few artists out there seem to get that anymore.
That said, I lost all interest in...
Fair, but IMO the industry needs more SS's and fewer people that get out of bed to do little more than to pump up the social media following.
If you're good you can say what's on your mind and still have a career.
Also - he might just be trolling us all. This might be a carefully crafted...
Similar story for me too. When was I very young I was into the 70s Classic Rock my parents were into, the Who, Clapton etc. Then as MTV ramped up I was into the Poison/Bon Jovi/Def Leppards of the work. GnR was the first mainstream thing that I'd heard that had dark/seedy/ominous undertones...
It’s clear how many people in this thread have never read a single PT interview before. If you have a negative reaction to this you are clearly late to the party.
next up: Wow, that Bob Dylan sure doesnt make a lotta sense, huh?
followed by: Geez, Bruce Springsteen can pontificate over a lot...
They got 5 televisions
In a house built for 3
Look up on that fake fireplace
You know the bucktoothed boy's me
See that wood paneled room'
That's where I learned to drink
See that hole in the wall'
That was seagrams I think
That tree was a goal post
That bathroom it was a shroud
That...
Yes been there before. I have a wife, 3 young kids and a demanding day job. I realized long ago that if I am going to take attention away from those other things in my life to do music, I have to be putting something out that I feel good about, otherwise it's not a good use of my time...
I don’t understand this thread, hasn’t Robert Smith had a pretty enviable career in music? He and his band have many fans around the globe, he’s written a handful of timeless classics, and, from my vantage, has pretty much done it on his own terms.
He’s not a blues/rock player. That’s who...
Been there too...so I understand and relate to where you are coming from, and I could see my post as coming off as an ungrateful band member. I was a good soldier for 3years and our goals for the band just became completely misaligned.
No, I found a better band. But that's somewhat beside the point. I didn't mind playing a lot and I contributed in other ways. When I gave my notice, I hung around and played out 3months of gigs that had already been booked while they auditioned other guys.
The band, which no one was being...
When the singer/bandleader decided that he would continue booking **** gigs wherever he wanted to, bitch at us all for not filling out calendars for black out dates and then repeatedly ask us if the blackout dates were “real” and whether or not he could book a gig, despite us all sitting down...
How a ska thread goes 5 pages on TGP is something of a miracle.
How a ska thread goes 5 pages on TGP without someone putting up some Slackers is a travesty!
Vic is a severely underappreciated talent, and the band is an institution. Go see them if they come to your town. You'll enjoy the hell...
There is no penalty for it. The lack of a Make Offer button in the listing however, suggests the seller might not want to hear it though. When you list, you need to opt out of that option.
