^^^ I do agree. I had always thought of these guys to be very dark, heavy, devil music in in my youth. They conveyed such a foreboding type image in that 70’s era. m A couple of other bands that I also thought were foreboding and dark in my youth and in that same era and a little earlier are these t...

A very nice and cool version of a reworked remake of a Led Zeppelin classic done by Robert Plant and his Band of Joy.

I just had to dig up another vintage Heart tune and period time piece.

Looks like this is turning into the Heart page. m I was going to submit Heart’s “Dreamboat Annie as my answer to Dan’s revival of flute music to metal but it just didn’t seem to work. The Kennedy Center Honors of Heart doing “Stairway to Heaven” was really good (over produced and GRAND) but still en...

Tonight,
Everclear, Live, Filter, and Sponge.

Really enjoyed their (The Eagles) documentary.

Some of my favorite lines, David Geffen calling Don Henley a “Malcontent”. LOL
And Glyn Johns saying to the Eagles, “you’re not a rock band. The Who are a ROCK band”!

Tonight, 1960’s hold over John Sebastian.

And since I’m seeing John Sebastian tonight this classis goes out to any “sweat hogs” that may or may not be on this forum. LOL

These are the other tunes that he is known for,

Glad to hear Blood Ceremony as the flute metal band because I was thinking that Dan was yanking a chain and trying to call Jethro Tull a Heavy Metal band. I will admit that Blood Ceremony does sound like Jethro Tull, just a little heavier. @ Laura, Nice to see Heart is on tour with Robert Plant. No ...

Russian mobster tag disguised as a Norwegian metal head. ???????
Oops, but I am laughing at Jammie38’s quote of Nickelback. LOL

@ Laura, after reading your upper posts I’m sure that your flashbacks started with this one, m I remember posting seeing them on the Gig History thread and man, did we ever derail that thread for a bit. For Dan, I use to listen to Grand Funk Railroad as a kid and I think it was due to my neighbor gi...

God! Loved this! So I will just leave this awesome Dire Straits song because I so fucking love Mark Knopfler! :) m And also another one from my favorite rock band of all time, Pink Floyd :) See Emily Play is an awesome song! m One of my favorite versions, m That version is awesome... but this one, ...

Big win today! Scoring 5 on Lundqvist is always nice. Rangers were lost defensively. Torey Krug has been fantastic filling in for the injured guys. Let him keep playing! Congrats. I actually watched the second period and I was pulling for Boston. I always has appreciation for the Bruins and a lot o...

^^^ Michael - because of you mentioning on the gig & classic rock threads that you recently saw former Runaways singer Cherie Curie live - I remembered that I'd not yet seen the 2010 Runaways movie (based on Cherie's autobiography) - so I rented and watched it late last night - awesome!!! It re...

Last night. Bullet For My Valentine, Halestorm, Young Guns, and Stars in Stereo.

Last night was a pure sinful pleasure from the past on seeing Cherrie Currie of “The Runaways” fame. Really glad to see that she has come out of retirement and Cherrie even said after her third song, “I just realized. This is my first show ever outside of California since my Runaway days”. She reall...

I was just told that Pain Of Salvation has cancelled the MN show tonight. Daniel has pneumonia and is flying home. I don't have any other information at the moment. I'm glad you were able to see them last night Laura. Woah - fell off my cloud 9 right there...that's a shame. I didn't get into all th...

Well, for the Wild there is always next year.

I think they squeezed in more than 700 people last night and the show was not a sell-out unless is sold out at the door at the last minute. I had a nice spot just behind the sound board next to the steps. I was not in the packed like a sardine area. Steven likes playing the Fine Line. I tried hard ...

YEAH!!! Wild win against the Blackhawks in OT. Series is now Blackhawks 2 Wild 1.
I’m glad that Chicago knows that it is just not going to be a walk in the park.
Hoping the Wild win again to tie the series.

Next gig is this Saturday 5/4/13. I have been given free tickets to Steve Wilson’s show at the Fine Line Café. I have been told that this is the smallest venue on his tour, like around 200 people. I know that somebody on this forum is a BIG fan. m Fine Line Café capacity is 700 people. I worked the...

The other night was Faster Pussycat.

have you ever wondered who'll headline festivals or big arena tours ten years from now...when (most of) AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Kiss, Judas Priest, Metallica etc. are gone? right now, Volbeat are the only band I could see become that big what are your thoughts and expectati...

I my youth I would get everybody’s unwanted used albums and or the albums that they got bored with, but the two that I did buy were Meat Loaf’s, ”Bat Out of Hell” and Loverboy’s self-titled album. I also use to buy bootlegged discs out of Europe (Italy mostly) and two of my favourites have been Def ...

You know, after reading this post last week the first song that came on the radio as I drove to work was 24 6 to 4. LOL. I then dug out my Chicago disc gave it a listen or two, plus after work I had to do a little YouTube watching of Chicago. LOL One of my favourite covers that Chicago performed and...

@ShoreSlayer.
"Wonder if Pominville did anything with the Wild... Oops, guess not. LA shut them out)".

LOL. Nice Jab.
I think that I may have to call a penalty on that jab.

Tonight, Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora will not be there due to Personal Issues.
So, I guess this will be more of solo Jon Bon Jovi gig than a Bon Jovi gig.

I’m an Independent Moderate and agree with Kate that expecting Dan to reply to us in his own post makes us uninformed and slow to understand his point of view from his seat which is in the far left field bleachers of life.

I know! Them winning would have helped us!

The Wild’s winning streak had to end at some point. I just don’t know why it had to be in Dallas.

Go Wild!

Last night was PINK.

Laura, Never seen Heart. I have seen Heart many times and Chicago a few times. Heart was the opener for Def Leppard at our state fair a couple of seasons ago and Def Leppard said that they never realized the depth and amount of hit songs Heart has achieved. They always knew of Heart and their legacy...

Tonight, Bob Seger with Kid Rock.

The thing that has changed the most for me is my use of social media. I even succumbed to FB. All that I can say is this forum and the cruises have been a wonderful and wonder-filled experience for me. I give thanks to the Forum Family and cruisers that aiding in opening and “broading” my introverte...

Lynyrd Skynyrd is still one of many classic rock bands that I have not seen live. I was always more of a Molly Hatchet listener and I have always liked their remake of “Dreams I’ll Never See” over the original by the Allman Brother’s Band. m I also liked the Rossington-Collins Band which rose from t...

So.... Thoughts on the proposed realignment? It's been out for a while but officially proposed now. I don't like it. They couldn't at least let the West and East have the same number of teams? Unless they're planning on two Western expansion teams. I don't like having the Florida teams lumped in wi...
