Planet Rock - Top 500 - Interesting listeners votes

They really don't like anything modern. It would be interesting to see what percentage of songs post 2000 are by much older bands playing old sounding music rather than modern bands playing modern music. -
Straight edge - NOFX

This week I are mostly been listening to Ulcerate. They have some lovely ballads.

What new gear should be produced?
SteveXFR replied to Jean-Luc Pickguard's topic in General Discussion
Epiphone should bring back the vintage pro Thunderbird. Thats the bass i most regret selling. It sounded amazing and I sold it to the bassist in Hawkwind. Ive seen several pro bassists using them. An Epiphone RD in black so I can pretend to be Krist Novoselic's much shorter (im only 6'1") brother. Similar quality to the Thunderbird vintage pro. -

I like it. 6 tuner knobs, 5 strings, 4 tuner posts. -
Back when I used to race downhill mountain bikes, I "borrowed" a couple cans of redbull from a team who were sponsored by redbull. The cans were marked "For Athletes Only" I excitedly took a swig of the special energy drink and the cans were filled with water. I guess it's entirely possible that alcohol manufacturers make special bottles for musicians filled with something non alcoholic.

Even if its similar price to America, the higher quality would still be an advantage. -

Was that the one with PJ pickups? Really nice bass, I bought one but had to send it back because the preamp was dying -

They just want the full expedition kit and massive off road tyres -

Do Fender still make basses in Japan? If not, they should so we can have better quality than US instruments for lower prices -

Land rover fans would. -
Mondo Generator are worth seeing if you get the chance. They play a load of their own stuff plus the Kyuss songs he recorded and they're really good. Nick and the band are pretty cool as well, they hang out with the fans before and after and watch support bands from the crowd as well.
-
Sadly it'll never happen again. Josh and the rest of the band don't get on. I was lucky enough to see Kyuss, Kyuss Lives and Vista Chino and all were incredible.
-
I remember seeing Kyuss live and Brant Bjork was quite obviously on some strong psychedelics, he was on another planet. His playing was absolutely solid although he did over play a few songs. Ive also seen Sleep when Al Cisneros was obviously tripping and Matt was stoned but I think thats normal for them and it kind of worked but they went of on some pretty wild jams. I think most of the audience was high as well.

All Fender guitars and basses with an indestructible finish that cannot be relic'd. Its an unacceptable fashion that must be stopped. -

People who set the volume at odd numbers that aren't multiples of 5. What's wrong with them? They need locking up. My daughter set the TV volume to 7 so I disowned her immediately. -

Marshall to make an exact replica of Lemmy's Murder One and sell it for a price I can afford. A portable guitar stand that doesn't fall over regularly. A budget range from Rickenbacker with the same electronics as the full price models but cheaper woods and a bolt on neck. -

There will be nothing post 1995 in the top 20. Not because music before then was better but because the average listener is old and suspicious of anything modern. -
I know someone who's bagpipes were blown up by the bomb squad. That didn't help sustain but made their least unpleasant sound.

Goth metal band smoke way too much weed and make a video
SteveXFR replied to musicbassman's topic in General Discussion
That was used as a pleasant fragrance to offset the stench of the band. -
