  1. Josh Freese is foooken amazing. If he is the new guy they have made an excellent choice.
  2. Omar Hakim πŸ˜… I'll get my coat! I didn't recognise him.
  3. This new guy is superb but, as if I didn't realise it before, Peart was utterly sublime.
  4. Compare the static Wembley crowd to the near-riot on the Rush In Rio video πŸ˜€ Well done to Grohl for giving them some decent set time ☺️
  5. YYZ. Amazing
  6. 90 more minutes of this, please.
  7. Exceptionally cool.
  8. There poor event junkies in the crowd have no idea what's going on or who these people are 🀣
  9. Grohl playing for Rush is pretty focken cool, I'll be honest
  10. These very decent musicians butchering The Police really highlights how skilled Copeland, Sting and Summers really are.
  11. Cabronita?
  12. These people have never heard the James Gang and are only applauding these pensioners because Dave Grohl told them to 🀣
  13. Ah The Pretenders were fantastic, well worth checking out. The young people call it "deep diving". Whatever. Give them a chance. Great songs. Great bass.
  14. Years ago, I decided to never go to a concert which costs more than €50 to get into so, as a result, I miss all the large "event" gigs like this. It's interesting to see technology hasn't yet cured the latency between the performance and what shows up on the big screen. That discrepancy between audio and visual is still a thing. Interesting.
  15. Supergrass playing everything about 15 bpm slower than when they were young lads 🀣 Nice to see the Blazer still in action, though. Total respect.
  16. I had never heard a note from them before I bought it. Due to the death of their bassist in a bus crash on tour, they had a guy from another band, whose name I had heard of but also never actually heard a note of their songs, standing in for recording. This association was enough for me to buy it. I still clearly remember the bus journey home as I listened for the first time. It enthrals me now, thirty years later, as much as it did then.
  17. I pay no attention to reviews on big sites anymore, they're just advertising pieces with no critical appraisal at all. They try harder not to pi$s off the biz side and encourage the reader to click on their tagged purchase links than offer any real insight into the quality of the music. Rust In Peace and Peace Sells... are 9/10 albums, almost perfect but ever so slightly flawed. Having heard a couple of songs off this one, there is no way it's at that level. They gave Distopia 8.5/10 ffs πŸ˜‚ You have to scroll a long way down to find anything below 8/10 on Blabbermouth. Utterly meaningless scoring. I'm looking forward to hearing the whole album, all the same, though if it's something which warrants more than one or two listens it will be an achievement, to be honest.
  18. Thanks, gents, and all who participated. Some great tunes in there πŸ‘πŸ»
  19. Love this, massive Beefheart vibe, deeeelcious πŸ‘ŒπŸ»
  20. Play. You just play leaderer bass. Kick donkey, take names.
  21. Yes, but, I mean, not literally.
  22. In Terminator 2: Judgment Day, in the scene where Robert Patrick, playing the T-1000, drives the truck off the bridge, into the levee, you can clearly see the right-front trackrod break and the wheel break alignment and spear to the right. However, in the next scene, the truck is grand.
  23. Don't go into it thinking "what should I upgrade?" Upgrades should only be a consideration if you have played it for a while and found something to be deficient. Japanese Fenders are generally superb. Play it for a while and get to know it. Only then decode if you need to mutilate it.
  24. Perhaps it was "too hot to handle" and muttered by a guy in Cash Converters?
