I'd rate Mudhoney over Nirvana any day of the week.

Does it depend if they are left handed bagpipes?

I googled it just now and I think you are right 👍

You know, I didn't actually know that. I have read quite a few of their bios etc and I don't recall that (no reason to disbelieve you though).

Correct. Ray Manzarek took care of business on keys with his left hand.

I guess you've either got it, or you haven't?

And the Misfits.

I know one of these too. Can't fault how he gets the crowd going. Have seen it happen but only in one band. He is only there because he props himself up with talented musicians, and maintains extremely tight control over unauthorised recordings of his vocals (no YT clips allowed if their sound guy hasn't worked his magic etc).

A great album, for sure.

Fair enough 👍

Hey, I'm as close minded as they come. I even flipping hate The Beatles. But Doors and Stones? Put on Hot Rocks and take a drive! Report back.

Same here. I could easily punch Rod Stewart in the face for no particular reason. But he'd probably say the same about me if he read this.

I saw these do a support slot. It was dire. I have got heavy metal running through my veins but even I objected to the girls shouting in place of singing. Worst idea ever. At one point, my mate leant over and yelled in my ear, "This is really shit!" just as the song ended. Oops.

It's more a case of struggling to hit the right note whilst thinking something along the lines of 'I bet Gene Simmons doesn't have this problem, the bar steward'

Fortunately, I have not come across anyone wearing shorts in a tab video. Mind you, after seeing my number one idol David Ellefson peddling his wares on Twitter last week, my eyes are freshly bleached and anything else would be positively tame in comparison at this point.

😂 I print the tabs off too. Then I end up writing all over them and confusing myself. Impressed you figure your own out, I have not got that far with it yet.

But you want to know what I hate? How when you watch a bass video on YouTube and some guy is just sitting there, all junk and no face. Like turn your body away from the camera a little bit, dude. I don't wanna see your package! Any other ladies have this issue?

Ha, I was only joking 👍

You could make a girls thread. For all the girls. We could talk about ... boys. And how our hands aren't really big enough to reach all those flipping frets we want to reach. Just a suggestion 😆

I stand corrected 😊

Ride the Lightning also a great album. No argument from me. Revisiting these albums and feeling a little anti-climatic with it .. I don't know. I think words like groundbreaking are a bit of a cliche but when those albums were first released, at the time, yes, the whole thing was blowing peoples minds, it was such a new sound coming through. I don't even think I have done it justice summing it up in that sentence, to be honest. Personally, I wouldn't say MoP is the undisputed metal album of all time, but all of those early Metallica albums have rightly deserved their top spots in metal history.

Yeah! And we want proof of the single-ness too! I want to see at least three days worth of washing up! 🤣

Two of the greatest thrash masterpieces of the 80's? Okay ... 😂 Now you really yanking my chain, eh?

Seems they spend much time moaning about their awful daughter in laws who have 'stolen' their 'prince' away from them, and how very dare those women who have married their sons then not follow their well meaning but incredibly out of date pushy advice about how it's okay to leave the baby in a pram at the bottom of the garden to cry it out for three hours. Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything ... 😜

Meh. There's always going to be a place in my heart for Papa Het (who let's face it is going to end checking out on us in a rehab facility at some point in the next two decades). But I cannot stand anything that comes out of the Danish midgets mouth, especially after he did a no-show at Download 2004 which I am still marginally annoyed about...
