That's nothing, I say it to cops and judges n ****. :cool:

[Jon]

Cinderella are ****ing awesome.

[Shout it Out]

Speaking of Cinderella my friend was telling me about one of their videos(I think maybe Gypsy Road) where Cinderella sees some chicks walkin towards them, but it turns out that they walk right past Cinderella and straight to Bon Jovi :lol:

[Dave de Sylvia]

No, I think those girls were Bon Jovi.

[murray_lindsay]

i thought the whole scene was pretty bad honestly but i did read the dirt by motley crue. do you think the hair and glam scene will come back to the mainstream.. ie the darkness?

[Dave de Sylvia]

Nope.

Well not with the Darkness anyway; they're just a one-off and I hate them.

Nothing came up. What is it?It was the video you were talking about. These girls walking past Cinderella and going to Bon Jovi..

I saw Sebastian Bach on 'Gilmore Girls' a few days ago. I never knew he was on that show.

It was the video you were talking about. These girls walking past Cinderella and going to Bon Jovi..

I saw Sebastian Bach on 'Gilmore Girls' a few days ago. I never knew he was on that show.Yeah, I saw that too. I went to his site when I first got into Skid Row and found out about it and I asked my sister's and they said that he was probably the front man for one of the character's band.

[Shout it Out]

It was the video you were talking about. These girls walking past Cinderella and going to Bon Jovi..Oh, well its alright. I think my friend Tivo'd it on Metal Maina. Man, what a great show that is...

Don't you guys think Glam metal is a bit too theatrical?

[EightMilesHigh]

Don't you guys think Glam metal is a bit too theatrical?

That's the point. It's supposed to be campy and theatrical and....glammy.

Concering Alice Cooper: I didn't get good enough of a view of his daughter :( When I saw him on October, I was too far back. ****ing amazing show, still.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Power metal is a bit too theatrical; glam metal is just kitschy and faggy enough.

[EightMilesHigh]

Power metal is a bit too theatrical; glam metal is just kitschy and faggy enough.

Iron Maiden and Dream Theater make everything sound so complex and deep, whereas glam, i.e. Twisted Sister is supposed to sound sloppy and sleazy.

[Dave de Sylvia]

No. Iron Maiden and Dream Theatre make everything sound complex and pretentious, whereas Twisted Sister are supposed to be sloppy and sleazy and ugly.

www.yourmusic.com, apparently.

I just bought Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Rocks, which is fun. I also saw a Cinderella DVD and laughed. Laughed hard.

[EightMilesHigh]

I learned the other day that At The Drive-In got their name from the Poison song "Talk Dirty To Me." I love that song.

Too bad Mr. Deville's guitar was out of tune when they recorded it.

I'm forced to listen to Poison a lot since my parents are big fans. It's really annoying. And I've never heard anything by At The Drive-In.. are they good?

Nevermind, I don't really care. I've only heard Tragedy from that Hanoi Rocks album.. It's a good song.

[EightMilesHigh]

And I've never heard anything by At The Drive-In.. are they good?


Yes! Hardcore-ish indie band from Texas that was around in the late '90s. Most members can now be found in The Mars Volta.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Yeah, At The Drive-In did some pretty great post-hardcore-ish stuff, before disbanding and becoming the Mars Volta and Sparta, but neither is as good as the original. I didn't know they were named after the Poison song though; that's an incredible fact.

Incidentally, I just learned that Poison's greatest hits has sold 2 million copies in the US alone, which is quite unexpected. Great band.

Haha. Which Cinderella DVD was it?

Nevermind, I don't really care.
Neither do I.

[blue3]

Yes! Hardcore-ish indie band from Texas that was around in the late '90s. Most members can now be found in The Mars Volta.Okay cool. I'll check them out.. sometime.

[Jon]

Poison Greatest Hits is one of my favourite albums.

[Ladyshredder126]

the first poison song i heard was every rose has its thron and i absolutely hated them for the longest time. dont worry :) when i heard fallen angel i became a convert. lol i always make fun of talk dirty to me- worst solo ever. but i love 'em. i love their guitar sound- say it sounds like every other glam band but who cares then they all sound great. could someone please tell me what effect that is- flanger, chorus, etc?

p.s. cc's hair is sexy :naughty:

[Dave de Sylvia]

launch.yahoo.com has the Brides video.

Also sad news:
Frontman of the Swedish glam metal outfit Crashdiet, Dave Lepard, was found dead this morning. Unofficial reports claim he hanged himself.

Crashdiet were best known for their minor hit 'Riot In Everyone,' a minor glam classic in its own right. They had the dubious honour of becoming the first 'sleaze rock' act signed to a major label in ten years when they signed with Universal Music. Their debut album, 'Rest In Sleaze,' reached Number 12 in the Swedish album charts last November.

The band members have already decided to disband the group in the singer's absence.

[blue3]

Skid Row is awesome.

[Jon]

Tryx were awesome.

[Jon]

Thunder on Saturday.

For free.

[blue3]

Have fun. Why's it free? Aerosmith's coming to Edmonton in April.

For 100 dollars.

[Dave de Sylvia]

It's free because Thunder are crap.

[blue3]

Haha, oic.

[Jon]

Its free because my friend got two tickets for his birthday and there aren't any other 15 year olds who listen to glam. So I managed to talk him into giving me a ticket.

[n00bguitarist]

T. Rex is my favorite glam rock band. David Bowie is pretty kickass, too.

[Overdrive666]

motley crue, kiss, warrant, etc. it was the musical attitude that hooked me. wild solos, intense but flowing riffs, pure awesomeness.

[EightMilesHigh]

T. Rex is my favorite glam rock band. David Bowie is pretty kickass, too.

I've been meaning to get more stuff by T. Rex, I've only heard Bang A Gong, which is still an awesome song.

Who's looking forward to Poison's 20th annniversary tour? I'm making plans for it in advance; I learned my lesson cuz Cinderella is comin to town the same day this week that I leave for some camping thing. :mad: AAARRRRGGGGG!!!!!


So hopefully Poison makes up for it.

omg ur right

I downloaded Electric Warrior last night, what an awesome album.

[Jon]

Poison and Cinders, hell yeah.

Twisted Sister and HANOI ROCKS though =D


I've decided that Dangerous Toys s/t is amongst the worst albums I've ever heard...

Oh, saw Nothin' To Lose blow the Stereo Junks offstage on monday...

[Jon]

Stephen Pearcy & Beautiful Creatures tour is cancelled =(

Shame, (Shame, Shame)... I was going to go to all the dates (Red Star Rebels were supporting).

Past few weeks -
Group sex in small hotel rooms
Stealing crates of beer from unattended bars
Doing speed off the table in my favourite club/in the street outside afterwards
Parties and parties and parties
Huge amounts of respect from seemingly elitist, HOT finnish chicks, because I knew who Pelle Miljoona are/were
Hairspray
Eyeliner


Anyone seen The Real McCoy or anything? My friend has pretty much every Hanoi video. Stuff from Finnish daytime TV. Andy and Mike doing Lightning Bar Blues (I think it was?) on the Finnish equivalent of CD:UK. Taxi Driver on a kids breakfast show, full of swearing in English (wasn't bleeped out because the censors didn't translate it and therefore figure out saying "I'm a ****in' Taxi Driivvverrr, I'll **** you anyway you want me to" was innappropriate for the 6-11 market). Andy on their version of Ready Steady Cook.

Insane stuff.

[musicforlife]

Twisted Sister are hair metal gods, to bad I can't find Stay Hungry anywhere in my musically deprived town.

[EightMilesHigh]

Twisted Sister are awesome :-D

[Hollywood Rose]

Dokken ftw

[Jon]

I have VIP for Twisted Sister & Hanoi at the Hammersmith Apollo.

I'm going to leave after Hanoi.

[Invicta_Veritas]

Skid Row owns......

That's all I got for now......

[Dave de Sylvia]

I have VIP for Twisted Sister & Hanoi at the Hammersmith Apollo.

I'm going to leave after Hanoi.
:lol:

My hero

[Jon]

I take that back.

I shall leave the general listening area after Hanoi, I'm ****ing hanging out with ****ing Andy Mc****ingCoy for ****s sake.

And if I can share a bag of speed with Mike, my life would be pretty much complete.

[Dave de Sylvia]

He'll probably take the whole bag because he's Mike Monroe.

I really wish they'd play in Dublin :( At least I get to see GNR and Gilby though

[Shout it Out]

TS is playing with them? Wow. Thats a rare gig for sure.

[EightMilesHigh]

A rare gig indeed.

Anyone like Mott The Hoople? I've been listening to the All The Young Dudes album a lot, they weren't around for long, but they were awesome '70s glam rock.

[musicforlife]

Anyone know of a place where I can get a hard copy of Stay Hungry?

[Jon]

The shop?

[Shout it Out]

Ebay?

I dunno I just walked in the local shop a picked up one for a friend. All luck of the draw I guess.

[Jon]

Ahah, little clip of Seb Hunter speaking. He actually speaks like he's from Winchester, its great. Posh wanker. Didn't deserve glam anyway. Makes you feel a lot better about the ending of Hell Bent For Leather

http://www.meettheauthor.co.uk/asp/playwm.asp?ISBN=1077&BW=hb

(they added the link at the bottom of http://www.markprindle.com/hanoi.htm)

ITP I've discovered that Beating Gets Faster is infact the best Hanoi song ever. Better than Devil Woman, Motorvatin, Cheyenne and 11th Street Kids tied together with a sparkly scarf.

Its absolutely flawless. (Track 8 on Back to Mystery City)

[Dave de Sylvia]

No, Cheyenne is better. Sorry!

[Jon]

They're both absolutely subliminal, I have to say.

["5150"]

Well, with the Hanoi Rocks UK tour coming up, I was wondering who's off to see them, apart from me? :)

Tour dates are available here (http://www.hanoirocks.com/) (sorry for no direct link to the tour page - it's not possible with the way the site is structured).

Luckily for me, they're playing at the Waterfront in Norwich, so I don't have to travel far, and tickets are only £15! Bargin i'd say!

[Jon]

[Jon]

just listen to the song

And come to the Hanoi gig in Huddersfield on Friday innit

[Dave de Sylvia]

what I don't want to catch AIDS

[Jon]

Several things have come to my attention, in order of priority.

1) I MET THE ****ING NEW YORK DOLLS LAST NIGHT. watch the jonathan ross show tonight.

2) The Hanoi gig was ****ing amazing, better than Motley Crue (which is the benchmark). I got banned from Holmfirth and the surrounding villages for writing 'punx never die' on the walls.

3) No Respect is pissing me off more than ever. Don't get me wrong, I love the album, its by far my favourite Hair Metal album, but you'd have thought that Davy and co would have written 12 songs rather than one song and 12 sets of lyrics =/

4) No one has posted here for a-jizz. Correct that. SUPERBUMP.

5) Stuff.

[blue3]

haha, you got caught writing that?

YAY HAIR METAL.

I have so many pointless posts.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Hanoi Rocks ftw amirite

[Jon]

urrite.

I didn't get caught writing it - about a week later, my friend who paid for the hotel by credit card got a phone call saying they have CCTV footage of me.

lol.

[Dave de Sylvia]

1) faggot
2) faggot
3) I love that album
4) faggot
5) faggot

[Jon]

1) Hah
2) I'm liek s000 hXc
3) Doesn't stop it from being a great album, its just a one-song album.

[blue3]

Aerosmith & Motley Crue, December 11th. Level one, row one, overpriced tickets, **** yeah!

They better not cancel again.. :(

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Sweet.

[blue3]

Sweet?! It's beyond sweet. This is the concert of my life! ..I actually say that for every show I go to, so it means nothing.. but still. It's gonna be a good concert if they show up.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

come on GNR would obviously be the concert of your life

or silverchair.

yeah I'm still pissed I didn't see Motley and Motorhead last year.

[blue3]

New GNR - not so much. I'm seeing them 5 days before the Aerosmith concert.

Silverchair - <3 I'd probably steal Daniel Johns and.. stuff.

Why didn't you go? No money again?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Why didn't you go? No money again?
Well I wasn't really into Motley much back then, and yeah, it was expensive.

Silverchair - <3 I'd probably steal Daniel Johns and.. stuff.
They're playing here on New Years Eve, at a really small club.

[blue3]

Okay, I'm there!! Do you know if they're playing any other shows, that's kind of in the same continent?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It could just be a one off, since it's their hometown and stuff.

[6stringed]

I'm so excited for Aerosmith and Motley Crue comin!
The new G'n'R (I.M.O.) blows dogs for quarters

[blue3]

Disco blows dogs for quarters man!

It could just be a one off, since it's their hometown and stuff.Damn Silverchair..

[6stringed]

ha Detroit Rock City rules, Hey
Family Jewels is on tonight ha

[Jon]

Obviously due to the life of excess I lead I don't have a long term memory, but some points from the last week.

1) Vain were ****, I have lost my faith in hair metal. I haven't really listened to it since before the summer, but this was the final nailz in the koffinn [sic]
Red Star Rebels were alright; I've seen them so many times that I've become really critical of them to the tiniest detail. They were just really tired I think.

2) TOWERS OF LONDON WERE AMAZINGGGG (as usual, go see them). My band should be touring with them in January, I shall update yous.

3) BACKYARD BABIES WERE AMAAZINGGGG. I've never been a huge fan but they were great.

4) Back of my jacket:

[Dave de Sylvia]

1) ha, I was just listening to them.
2) they're annoying
3) i like them
4) nice
5) haha you finally look older than 12

[Jon]

1) If I owned No Respect I'd burn it. I might just delete it.
2) THEY ARE AMAZING. but they've shot themself in the foot with the series, they lose all credibility. paves the way for another sick glampunk band *cough*
3) yeah
4) innit
5) I never look 12 =/

thats a crap photo

[Jon]

lol I've recently missed Tuff & Pretty Boy Floyd (on one night, apparently it was awful, damn overpriced Metalsludge concerts...) and FP (can't remember which one, think it was Pie-me's version).

sort of getting back into hair metal just a little bit, but only the better stuff.

[Jon]

Motley Crue and Papa Roach on Monday :)

I can't believe the difference in venues though.

Last time I saw them was at the NEC, now the Hammersmith Apollo? Since 2005 they've become so much more popular, weird.

[Slapping Penguin]

Dr Feelgood lol,

and

Shoutttt AT the DEVILLLL!

[philly96]

I was wondering if Motley Crues Dr Feelgood is any good?

[Jon]

Its not my favourite album by them but yeah its decent. It didn't go platinum however many times over because people hate it.

But for Crue I prefer the original issue of Too Fast For Love, Shout At The Devil, and Generation Swine.

[philly96]

Oh, Dr Feelgood is really cheap at the moment thats the reason why I was wondering. I may get one of those albums as well.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

The songs I've heard from Dr. Feelgood are awesome but from what I gather the whole album isn't quite up to scratch.

[metalhead17]

Def leppard is alright,and twisted sister had there moments.But overall hair metal sucks.

[Dave de Sylvia]

The songs I've heard from Dr. Feelgood are awesome but from what I gather the whole album isn't quite up to scratch.
I think the fact that it's so well-recorded covers up a lot of the average songwriting. There's four or five-odd classics on there though.

Shout is the essential Crue album, TFFL is the best Crue album and GS is the hidden gem.

[Jon]

the filler on feelgood is better than the filler on girls and theater...

crue on mondayyyyyyyyyyy

I forgot to mention, standing.

I was standing last time when everyone else got seating, bahaha.

so excited.

i mean, it was the best gig I've ever seen apart from Hanoi, maybe even better than Hanoi.

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Blashyrkh]

Queen was glam. They were the start of glam. They just didn't originate on the Sunset strip.

lmao wat

[Cocaine]

dude their singer had aids that automatically makes them glam

Leave him alone cocaine! Fred is possibly one of the best vocalist of our time.

he still had aids. that's not like an insult, he also had a moustache.

moustaches are not glam

i don't think you thought this through cocaine

[Blashyrkh]

Leave the mustache alone! He needed it to cover up the horrible teeth!

[Cocaine]

I have a moustache and I'm pretty glam.

[Dave de Sylvia]

shave it off

[Jacaranda]

shout is my favorite motley crue album. Red Hot to the end of the album is just perfect.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Shout is also my favourite.

[Jon]

just for reference if you have facial hair you automatically can't be glam.

also red hot is up there with my favourite crue tracks.

doesn't beat on with the show or louder than hell, but yeah

[Blashyrkh]

Kickstart my Heart

[Jon]

oh my god they were great.

so were papa roach, I forgot how much I missed that band

got absolutely blind drunk before/during/after, still drunk I think *shrug*

2005 was a better circus obviously, last night was pretty great though.

I think Tommy's drum tech was playing drums, I'm not sure exactly what was happening but Tommy came out for singalongs every few songs iirc

[Dave de Sylvia]

wtf Papa Roach opened for GNR last year. I hate how they're all eyeliner now.

Man I wanna see the Crue again, they were so good. I read an interview with the Killing Joke singer and he was talking about how there were "a few thousand" of their fans at each show when they opened for the Crue in the UK. They must not have shown up in Manchester then because the place was dead when they played.

[Jon]

Neither for Birmingham, Killing Joke were awfuuuullll

That's one thing I HATE more than anything at 'big' gigs - the support bands are, without fail, ****. So you're standing at the front row wishing you could be at the bar (I actually managed to fight my way to the bar and back between Crue sets last night, first time I've dared to leave my place) or sitting down, and its this awful band that no one cares about. Then they take hours to set up for the headliner and its badtimes.

Last night it was one of my all time favourite bands supporting, and the sets changed over really quickly :)

It finished bare early actually, like 10-10.30 or something

[Dave de Sylvia]

Yeah we left after like 20 seconds to get more drinks. Then we missed the first 30 seconds of Shout because fatass was taking a ****. True story.

What was the line-up last night? Crue, Papa Roach and...?

[Jon]

Just them two

[Jon]

oh god I'm so back into RATT. and Dokken.

and a few others.

Mmmm RATT...

You ever get that sort of circular thing? LOVE something. HATE it, like can't bear to have it spoken about, slag it off at every oppurtunity. then get back into it? I've had that with just about every kind of music I've into, which is sort of unfortunate because in the past week I've listened to Danger Danger, Testament, D12, a load of cheesy 2000 trance, etc etc.

weird.

I miss liking hair metal :)

[ATM]

I bought a Danger Danger tape the other day based on this album cover:

[Jon]

the only Danger Danger song I know vaguely well is Bang Bang.

probably heard others.

its an awesome cover though :)

[ATM]

Yea, they actually had a ton of glam tapes for a quarter each.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I got the new Bullets and Octane album yesterday, it's pretty good.

I also got a copy of Faster Pussycat's s/t, but I had to put back Dangerous Toys' s/t cos I ran out of money :(

[Dave de Sylvia]

Got the new Hardcore Superstar album. Not as immediately good as the last one, but heavier and a little less punk.

[Jacaranda]

more crue talk less fag talk plz

[Dave de Sylvia]

In one of my lectures today a woman a few rows down had the Too Fast For Love cover as her laptop wallpaper. I would have started chanting were it remotely relevant to Foucault's History of Madness.

[Jacaranda]

ah thats a start. I've been reading Fargo Rock City by Chuck Klosterman so i've been listening to some crue and such.

[Dave de Sylvia]

That's a pretty hot book. His review of Chinese Democracy is also hilarious. I like him because he doesn't try to pass off his love of terrible music as irony.

[Jacaranda]

in sex drugs and coco i think he comes to missoula and some girl trys to buy weed off him.

except in the book he says he was stuck on the first side of shout at the devil for like three months before he got to the second. he was on the wrong side for sure.

[Cocaine]

Fargo Rock City is the only one of his books I took a while to finish. He's definitely my favourite music based writer.

[Jacaranda]

he's the only one i've read who doesn't have his face all the way up his own ***

except rob sheffield he's just silly gay

[Dave de Sylvia]

yeah people who write about music are gay

[Jacaranda]

Sputnik ModSputnik Mod

[Dave de Sylvia]

I don't write about music I just help control the writing! You know how rowdy it can get.

[ATM]

Chuck Klosterman is awesome. I've read everything of his I can find.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

Tried any Lester Bangs? He's pretty good, if you don't mind punk rock.

[Jacaranda]

i'm almost done with The Dirt and i just completed my collection of pre-john motley crue and already i feel cheated from theatre of pain.
:/

[Jacaranda]

apoc raids tell me about what you like in the dirt.

i always felt if i was razzle and they dedicated theatre of pain to me its just like saying hey we feel bad but not bad enough to stop doing smack and actually write our own single/make a good song.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I like all of it really. All the backstory about their childhood etc drags a bit but I suppose it's necessary (at the moment its my third time through , my favourite parts are probably the stuff surrounding the '80s albums and tours (for all the obvious reasons). I especially like that little section with the cogs and conveyor belts being a metaphor for the music industry.

haha yeah that was weird.

[Jacaranda]

i skipped that

more bloody eating out plz.
i've been trying to find another book that matches the dirt or even comes close and can't find anything

and i've been trying to download look what the cat dragged in but it keeps stoppin on me. maybe me and cc weren't meant to be.

[Dimmu Burger]

I played Guitar Hero Rocks The 80's and it is really easy and boring. Escept for Holy Diver! That song is the shiznit!

[Grumma]

yeah nothing too exciting guitar wise about Glam metal lol

though they were some awsome lyrics
*cue: Sweet Cherry Pie*

[Jacaranda]

I'll just go back to listening to Bon Jovi :)
