Classic Rock

[RockAndRoll]

Ok first off...its tomorrow... at what time?
ack, tommorow is not good.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Oh. Well...

I'll go on whatever side needs another person.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

ack, tommorow is not good.

How about a mini debate right now?

Everybody is on AIM right now I assume...

[lunch998]

Tomorrow is the Aim album-trade so we should try it another time.

[DVG2]

i guess i can do it... dont have AIM tho, but i can get it. *groan* that means ill have to wake up at 8AM. Ill just sit in, but i dont mind argueing for Zeppelin.

DVG.

[lunch998]

How about a mini debate right now?

Everybody is on AIM right now I assume...

I can't, I've been avoiding my homework as usual. It's almost 10 on the east coast too, so I should go do that.

If anyone wants to talk to me on Aim, my screen name is lunch998.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Augh, everybody I know holds off their homework.

I do it first thing :thumb:.

Then again, my parents force me too....

[RNR]

So have I made my point? Or are we still going to debate a pointless arguement?

Why not debate which one had more influence or more talent? Not which one is better?

[RockAndRoll]

So have I made my point? Or are we still going to debate a pointless arguement?

That is a good idea...

[MalcolmYoungRock]

I think what we should do is we should do one of those band vs band things.

Once we go to the point where we can't debate any longer about a band we pick a winner then get a new band.

Something like that..

Edit: Or we can also do it like that

Debate on 2 bands and which had the most influence and then we move on to another band to debate with the band that won or had the "most influence"

[lunch998]

So have I made my point? Or are we still going to debate a pointless arguement?

The point of debating it with members of this forum is to get intelligent responses about influence and talent, not have people say "Zeppelin is better because Jimmy Page Rules!"

That's why I'm so horribly thankful that few noobs have found their way into this thread.

[lunch998]

Yea me too. Anyways, I'm out, peace guys.

[RNR]

I'm just saying that debating which band is better is stupid. No good could come of it. Everyone has their own opinons and neither side could ever be right. So why not debate something worthwhile?

edit: see ya.

[RockAndRoll]

We could always set something up like they have in the Politics forum...

Pick teams for a debate, first a member from one team posts then the other.. And there could be 3 rounds or something, each member posting once per round. And we could do that right here in the forum.

[DVG2]

Why not debate which one had more influence or more talent? Not which one is better?

Well i suppose the 'whos better' sorta encompases influence and talent.

DVG.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Then again, on the "Which band had more influence" debate, people can just argue that "Led Zeppelin had the most influence because they had Jimmy Page and he R0x0rs" Then again a debate is all opinionated.

[Badmoon]

Okay, I'm here now.

We're not debating to see who's better. We're debating just for the sake of arguing against one of your peirs about a topic that is serious to both of you. So, some great opinions can arise.

We can debate several bands in one session.

We need to pick teams, but I'm not sure who's in.

[RNR]

No it doesn't, who's better is who makes the better music. And music is subjective, everyone has their own tastes, so nobody would ever be correct.

edit: to dvg

[Badmoon]

We can debate both topics, we'll just split um up.

[RNR]

Fine, we will see how it turns out.

*Peers :P

I'm in for sure.

[Badmoon]

I. Band vs. Band
A. Skill
B. Influence
c. Originality

EDIT: 2nd outline in one day :thumb:

[DVG2]

ahh.. but then you can change the debate question... 'which band is better in term of influence, skill and overall music?'

tada

DVG.

[RNR]

omgz badmoon you've gone over 1000 posts i nthis thread.

:eek:


Dvg: sounds good, just no "which band is better (period)". it's not productive.

[Badmoon]

*Peers :P

I'm in for sure.

It's that kind of **** that gets people killed. And I figure because I'm American I can be half assed. :p

[Badmoon]

I just wrote a killer banjo tune.

[DVG2]

lol, he makes up almost 1/7th of this thread.

DVG.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

It's that kind of **** that gets people killed. And I figure because I'm American I can be half assed. :p

I'm American too....

So I'll kill you back :p

[RNR]

I have 800 posts in this thread. 400 of which are about music and only about 20 of those are worthwhile.

[Badmoon]

Okay, what will be the two bands?

[MalcolmYoungRock]

How can you tell how many posts you have?

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Okay, what will be the two bands?

The Doors vs Pink Floyd

Led Zeppelin vs The Who

The Beatles vs The Rolling Stones

some suggestions?

[RNR]

Okay, what will be the two bands?

The Rolling Stones and The Who for influence. The Beatles is unfair because they would win for sure.

[keep on phishin']

Okay, what will be the two bands?


grateful dead vs. allmans

[ToRidTheDisease]

[RNR]

We already know the the allman brothers had more skill than the greateful dead. And that the dead had more influence.

[Badmoon]

Holy ****! We care! :rolleyes:

[Badmoon]

[ToRidTheDisease]

[Badmoon]

The skill, ya bastard!

[RNR]

Oh, all right then, fine, i'll see you there.

Number of decent topics to debate so far: 1.

[Badmoon]

Old & In the Way - Pig in a Pen

^Shows off Garcia's crazy banjo skills, and some of his vocals.

[session9]

I like The Small Faces, Free, early Floyd. Don't know why I posted that, but I did. So there.

[lunch998]

I'd rather go Zeppelin vs. the Who, but I could argue for either the Grateful Dead or the Allmans.

Yes, Post count 148 in this forum. Comeback time.

[Badmoon]

We could do um both, but when?

[RNR]

I can't be here at 6:30 :( Guitar lesson followed by basketball practise.

Edit: i mean 6:30 for me, Which was when we were supposed to have it,

[lunch998]

Look who finally decided to show up. Badmoon is that Aim album trade tonight?

[RNR]

6900 thread posts! :naughty: -00

But where else can you celebrate without getting flamed to hell?

[RNR]

But where else can you celebrate without getting flamed to hell?

Exactly.

[Badmoon]

My birthdays comming up.

One day after John Entwistle, John Lennon, and Sean Lennon's birthday, I believe.

[Badmoon]

Look who finally decided to show up. Badmoon is that Aim album trade tonight?

Hey! I have school!

Yea it's tonight :)

[RNR]

Badmoon if you have any time can I get the second half of that album now?

[Badmoon]

Lets do it now.

[lunch998]

Grateful Dead vs. The Allmans (at some time no one knows yet)
Who's in?

[RNR]

I really don't know if the allmans are more skilled. I was mainly thinking of just guitar. I'm not sure about bass, drums and keyboards or anything.

[Badmoon]

I wouldn't exactly say guitar either.

Betts > Weir

Garcia = Allman

Garcia > Betts

Allman > Weir

That's how I see it, of course I won't completely explain myself now. I'll save it for the debate.

[RNR]

I have to leave in half an hour anyway, might as well debate now.

[Badmoon]

We can do it tonight if were not sick of each other after the trade chat.

[RNR]

Yeah, I don't know, we didn't do much debating as just talking.

Let's see, I have to leave in 7 minutes and I wont be back for 5 hours, :eek:. Possibly another time would be good.

[Broken Arrow]

I'm in, but I would prefer to be on the Allmans Side.


In Opinions of Voices:

Gregg>Jerry

[RNR]

I prefer Gregg's voice. But how do you really judge vocal talent? Other than somebody's vocal range there are no other ways.

[Broken Arrow]

Yeah I meant I like his voice better

[Badmoon]

Well, for one, The Dead has various vocalists. Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Pigpen, Donna Jean Godchaux.

I like Jerry's voice, matches the music good. It may not be as good as Allman's though.

[Broken Arrow]

Well yeah I like Jerry's aswell but its nothing to Greg's

[Badmoon]

You act as though Greg's is amazing. It isnt that great.

[Broken Arrow]

What????????????

I only said he was better than Jerry :angry:

[Creedence Clearwater]

What????????????

I only said he was better than Jerry :angry:

At least they all sing better than Bob Dylan

[thickasabrick]

no one sings better than bob dylan



oh wait....you said better.

[Creedence Clearwater]

no one sings better than bob dylan



oh wait....you said better.

Your the one from the Bob Dylan thread, awesome, carry on......

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Are we doing the debate now or no?

Or did I miss it.... :upset:

[Broken Arrow]

I dont think you missed it
But I thought we were doing album trading.......meh

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Ack! We need more organization in this!

[Badmoon]

I dont think you missed it
But I thought we were doing album trading.......meh

Yep, in about 20 minutes.

[Broken Arrow]

We're just supposed to come here at 9 Eastern (15 min) and Badmoon will have eveything under control.(i hope)

Edit: he beat me to it.....Meh Next post is my 600 :D

[Badmoon]

[Badmoon]

3.) Go to "People" at the top of the whole AIM rectangle
4.) Scroll down to "Send Chat Invitation"
5.) Click it
6.) A chat box will apear. There will be a rectanguler box near the bottom. Inside the box, there will be a good amount of numbers.
7.) Delete the numbers.
8.) Type in "mxclassicrock"

[Broken Arrow]

Failure Failure Failure

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Yeah, it failed.

Sucks really.

[Broken Arrow]

Bastard Lunch998 you lied to us.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Curse you Mr. Lunch Man!

[Broken Arrow]

I was looking forwards to hearing some knew music:(

[MalcolmYoungRock]

New*

[Broken Arrow]

Ohh yeah

[madridfan]

"One of These Nights" by The Eagles is my current favorite song. What do you guys think of it?

[Broken Arrow]

It's ok, I'd rather listen to some Life in the Fastlane or Victim Of Love.....meh

I'm going...maybe tommorow we'll be more organised

[Badmoon]

New*

What did I tell you about that spelling ****. It brings negativity to the Classic Rock household.

[magicbus]

"One of These Nights" by The Eagles is my current favorite song. What do you guys think of it?

I enjoy that song a lot!. But now I'm listening to dub.

[themightyquinn23]

How about this idea? I say we have Bonzo or a mod change the first post in this thread so we don't have so many people posting without realizing they are interuppting discussion.

[magicbus]

Seriously though, go in the chat now! :thumb:

Even if just for discussion.

[lunch998]

Bastard Lunch998 you lied to us.

Hey I never said what time, or even that I was going to be there :upset: . Me and Magicbus are partying it up right now though so go join it.

Ok and blame me if you have to, but never insult the Lunch Man.

[lunch998]

You guys like Simon and Garfunkel? I guess they aren't "rock" but they are classic. I like the music a lot too.

[RNR]

You guys like Simon and Garfunkel? I guess they aren't "rock" but they are classic. I like the music a lot too.

They're folk. But I like them anyway. Paul Simon can really play.

[lunch998]

Yea I know, they write great lyrics too.

[RockAndRoll]

*is getting AIM as we speak*

I've got a gig tommorow... Playing eight songs, including one of our own. Should be good. Still looking for a bd name though. Ya, I really hope I don't mess up fire too, seeing as I just learnt it yesterday and I have by far the hardest part.

[lunch998]

Hey good luck man, go kick ***.

[RockAndRoll]

Hey good luck man, go kick ***.
thanks, I get 25$ too :eek:! :thumb:

I wish I could see it, but I could never cross the border without my rifle and b-net. And they're at the shop :thumb:

[RockAndRoll]

It'll be taped, maybe i'll be able to send a copy to you.

p.s I'm in the chat room right now.

[Badmoon]

I'd still feel safer if I viewed the movie with atleast my b-net.

[RockAndRoll]

I'd still feel safer if I viewed the movie with atleast my b-net.
:lol: well that's just too bad for you!

EDIT: go back in the chat room I hadn't relaized anyone was there.

[Badmoon]

bump

[Broken Arrow]

To RockandRoll:Are there any other bands playing at the gig your at??

Did any progress get made last night after I left?
?

[RockAndRoll]

no, It's just us although we've been told some of the audiences members may bring guitars or something.

progress on what?

[MalcolmYoungRock]

bumpage

[ToRidTheDisease]

this thread is slowing down a lot

[MalcolmYoungRock]

No, just all the regulars that are usually here are gone.

[Broken Arrow]

no, It's just us although we've been told some of the audiences members may bring guitars or something.

progress on what?
Yeah I was just wondering because my cousin is a bassist for a band in London I I think he said he was doing a gig this week but I cant remember.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

What did I tell you about that spelling ****. It brings negativity to the Classic Rock household.


*****

I'm sorry Mr. Badmoon.

[RNR]

We have about 15 regulars and most of them were sleeping or something for the last little while.

Well anyway, sounds like that would be a good show. You play drums, right?

[RockAndRoll]

1. Why is this thread being bumped? there is no need.
2. It is not slowing down, there just happened to be a time where very few people posted.

[RNR]

What I said.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

See, now everybody is waking up.

[RockAndRoll]

We have about 15 regulars and most of them were sleeping or something for the last little while.

Well anyway, sounds like that would be a good show. You play drums, right?
yep. I hope it all goes well, I think in the past 2 weeks we've started taking big steps forward after the summer of everyone being busy. Maybe after this we'll have some more time to write more songs and learn a greater variety og them.

[Badmoon]

This thread will never die. Last time someone said that, we got the second wave of Classic Rock regulars.

[lunch998]

Anyone up for a chat now? Even if we have no real topic.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

I believe thats me?

[Badmoon]

^ and the other chillin's

[Badmoon]

I'm at the chat.

[Broken Arrow]

Me too!

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Me three!

[RNR]

omgz, now me 4

[RockAndRoll]

Anyways, What are some drum parts of Classic rock songs that really stick out in your mind.

Fire, doesn't everybody love this one?
Dazed and Confused, Especially the end of the solo
Aja, the end just amazing
Come together, everybody knows this part
Good lovin, just has a cool beat that goes with the music
Whiteroom, I love the sound of his bassdrum on this I wish I could reproduce it
Magic Bus, Original, the song just isn't the same without it
Mississipi Queen, I love this song, I think it's use of cowbell is overshadowed by BOC
Traintime, the drums and harmonica make this song
I shot the Sheriff, in covers of this song the drums help keep the original feel
Good times bad times, great bass drum use
How many more times, just a really great part

Ah i'll probably add more later but I think this is a good list to start with.

[Broken Arrow]

Nice^

[Badmoon]

Magic Bus, Original, the song just isn't the same without it


Ohhh, that'd be sweet to see.

[RockAndRoll]

Nice^
Thankyou, I can't beleive I missed Floyd though, Nick is a great drummer, underrated and the only member to play on every album.

[RockAndRoll]

Nick is terribly underrated, great musician.

[Broken Arrow]

I like him in Time..thats just me though

[RockAndRoll]

I like him in Time..thats just me though
I like him in time too, Time is a great drum peice.

[RockAndRoll]

I also think he does a very good job in Another Brick in the Wall.

[Mankind_]

*waits for chance to get 7000th post*...

[lunch998]

His stuff is always pretty solid. I like the slow fills in the chorus of Brain Damage.

[RockAndRoll]

Once my floyd fanatic friend said he though all the drumming in floyd was the same, I just laughed at him.

[RockAndRoll]

Lighthouse has an amazing drummer too(skip prokop I think). He's got a great voice as well which i did not know until recently.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

k, thanks

[themightyquinn23]

Yeah. So that was me in that chat. It really blows. Hard. This is much better.

[RNR]

Well, you should have been there from the begining. it was great.

[RockAndRoll]

what's you user name on AIM quinn?

[irishg]

ok ok, i admit it, i'm a classic rock nut. i love led zeppelin, the beatles, the who, eric clapton, the doors, and so on. most of the bands i listen to broke up years before i was born. at 17, nearly every song on my playlist is older than me. but is it just my imagination, or is classic rock experiencing sort of a revival. i am running into an increasing number of classic rock fans my age. at my school (an all boys high school), the school newspaper took a poll of everyone's favorite genre and band. led zeppeling got 5th and the beatles got 6th, behind that rap crap. classic rock made up a large percent of ppls favorite genre. is this just by me, or are other ppl noticing this too?

o and for u classic rock fans, the crime of the new century was that the Yardbirds new CD, Birdland, recieved no attention at all. that deserved a grammy, or 6.

so are there any other classic rock fans out there, and even if ur not, have u been noticing somewhat of a revival in interest for that sort of music?
The "revival" is great, don't get me wrong, but, there are alot of fakes out there. I saw a kid at school with a Led Zeppelin shirt on. I asked him if he was a fan. He replied "I love that guy." Thats the kind of stuff that pisses me off.

[Woodstock]

I woke up, and yes, Nick Mason is an underatted drummer. Always kept the beat.

[RockAndRoll]

hahah me and my friends would always make fun of people that thought led-zeppelin or pink floyd or whoever was one person.

haha yea, i know waht you mean. Same kind of stuff in my school, there are some true fans in my school, including myself, but whatever if they like the music, its a start, and its better than alot of the other stuff out there.

[InChains]

c-rap, hey thats what i call it! i could of sworn i invented c-rap.....
back to the lab again

[MalcolmYoungRock]

It's funny how they just read the first post and respond to that and they don't bother to read the other 280 posts.

You know we'd all get bored just discussing "Oh yeah, Classic Rock is cool. And it's coming back. Cool."

We switch topics :thumb:

[RNR]

280 PAGES you mean :thumb:

Heh, now it's more of a classic rock community thread.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Basically, yeah.

I don't know my internet forum terminology :upset:

[magicbus]

Anyways, What are some drum parts of Classic rock songs that really stick out in your mind.

Fire, doesn't everybody love this one?
Dazed and Confused, Especially the end of the solo
Aja, the end just amazing
Come together, everybody knows this part
Good lovin, just has a cool beat that goes with the music
Whiteroom, I love the sound of his bassdrum on this I wish I could reproduce it
Magic Bus, Original, the song just isn't the same without it
Mississipi Queen, I love this song, I think it's use of cowbell is overshadowed by BOC
Traintime, the drums and harmonica make this song
I shot the Sheriff, in covers of this song the drums help keep the original feel
Good times bad times, great bass drum use
How many more times, just a really great part

Ah i'll probably add more later but I think this is a good list to start with.


FIRE! I wish I knew how to play that. I just get crazy when I hear it. :D

EDIT: Nick is a good drummer!

[magicbus]

Classic rock never left. I live in a small towm and classic rock/rock is actually more popular than c-rap! its amazing! i am 15 and this is my album collection:

Good list :thumb:

You should get some Yes. Or did I miss them?

[thickasabrick]

i think mitch mitchel is an amazing drummer, i would rather know how to play hendrix experience songs on drums, than on guitar.
neil peart from rush is an awesome drummer too
bonham is my favourite drummer

[Broken Arrow]

I got back from Hockey now i am going CD hunting(is there a chat tonight??)

[magicbus]

I'm just gonna start going in the chat room every so often, to see if anybody's in there. Just an idea.

I really like Mitch Mitchel too. His drumming is so catchy and fast.

[RNR]

I'm not sure if there is a chat. If enough people are on we could have an unplanned one. Like earlier today's chat.

[magicbus]

Go in now!

[jpj]

i just watched pink floyd pulse, it was amazingly awesome. nick is definitely very underrated. people always talk about bonham and moon, but you hardly hear anything about him.

[Mankind_]

My first review!!! :D It's on Van Halen III.

i know, i know, its not that good(the review)

[magicbus]

I love White Room!!! Dude listen to the wah on the second verse! And that sweet *** solo!!

Later, goin to guitar center, might pick up a wah :thumb:

*Excited!

*I'll read the review later, going now. :thumb:

[Paranoidd]

(edit: regarding Nick's drumming)

Because he doesn't hold a candle to them.

I love Pink Floyd, but I've never been particularly impressed with Nicks drumming. (I've seen pulse too).

[jpj]

i know hes not as good as them, but he still doesn't get the credit he deserves. i probably could of worded it better

[Mankind_]

I don't have the album, but that's a very good review. :)
thanks. it sounds somewhat similiar to VH's Balance in case you have that album

I'm angrier than Maddox. He has legions of fans, I have nothing.

[RNR]

lol, well I bookmarked your site. you have some pretty good rants.

[themightyquinn23]

Badmoon did Van Halen, but he foolishly had it deleted because he thought it wasn't good enough.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Hey! It wasn't that good, and people kept bumping it.

[Badmoon]

So, how does everyone like Rusted Root?

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Its good.

I listened to that song about 3 or 4 times.

[RNR]

That was awesome :D. Their singer has one of the best voices i've ever heard. Some other time can I get the rest of that album?

[keep on phishin']

i've heard some songs and i really like them

but I havent been able to find one of their albums round' here :upset:

[Badmoon]

Well, I sent almost everyone "Send me on my Way" during the chat this morning.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Yeah I couldn't find any on the sites I usually use to sample cd's and such.

But, that singer.. man he was good.

It was really catchy too.

I liked it. On my way. On my way.

Edit: I'm listening to it again :) Catchy as hell.

Hey, do you WANT them to get shut down.

It's free music.

eh.

[Broken Arrow]

Thank you Malcom :thumb:

[madridfan]

Hey guys! So a couple of friends and I are planning to cover a Classic Rock song at a school event. Which of these do you guys think will really play on our older teachers' bias(they're the judges): "One of These Nights" The Eagles, "Hotel California" The Eagles, "Behind Blue Eyes" The Who, "Rock n' Roll" Led Zeppelin, or "Layla" (original) Cream?

[Broken Arrow]

Layla was done by Derek and the Dominoes anyways.......Do Hotel California or Rock and Roll thats what mainstream teachers like.

[Against Miik!]

My favorite of those is Hotel California, but I don't know if you could pull that off well. I really don't know how good you are, but it's a tough song to do live, especially with the vocals. I'd say Layla or the Who would be the easiest to do based on diffculty of vocals, but if you could do one of the Eagles songs, that would be awesome.

[Badmoon]

EDIT: Our little secret ;)

[Broken Arrow]

Join the Chat :thumb:

Yeah what Miik said would be easier.

That is alot of albums

[madridfan]

"One of These Nights" is actually pretty easy, but you're right, the vocals...
