I've never seen it. Is it just called "The Doors Movie"?

Anyway, we've got a flurry of blues threads in the Other Music forum. Go post in them so blues will get some more interest. I don't think we need a separate blues forum, but it would be cool to get a little blues discussion going. Although a blues/rock forum would be cool since this is pretty much a metal forum.

It's just called The Doors.

And there is no need for a seperate rock forum, plus we'd get people arguing about what bands are metal and what bands are rock, which would just be outrageously annoying.

It's come up a zillion times, and no, we do not need a seperate rock forum.

Why would you say that? This thread has a million pages to it, and lots of Rock bands like Pink Floyd and The Who have strong followings on here. But then again, I don't really think Rock and Metal should be different genres...

Anyone think we're being drowned out by Metal Heads? We really need a Rock forum! The only people who feel strongly about not seprating them is the Metal Heads who listin to some Rock. We need a change!

The drugged up is the more interesting side. That was his thing :)

It showed his musical and writing talents, though.

If my brother decides to go to Mexico I'm going to stay. I wouldn't want my mom to be alone like you said. It would be kinda cool to go out after the hurricane and look at the damage I've always wanted to do that. :-/[/QUOTE]

I'd get the **** outta there, fast
It's gonna be nasty, I think we all saw what happened to the people that stayed in New Orleans
It's your call though, I don't know why your mom would want to stay in the first place though
Viva la Mexico

Yeah, we're drowned up by metal heads, but really, who cares? As long as there are Rock and Metal threads floating around that we can have some sort of discussion in, it doesn't really matter to me.

Is it true that Ringo was a huge alcoholic?

It reminds me of the Hindus and the Muslims.

Hinduism isn't really one religious belief as it is a bunch of religious beliefs. "hindu" was actually a word used by the Brittish to describe people who weren't Muslims, instead of an actual singular religion. When the non-Musilm people of India were being attacked by the Muslims, they came to form a common bond in their unition against the Muslims.

Classic Rock is an umbrella term used to describe many genres in one time period. We have become united in our opposition to the Metalheads :eek:

Ok, that's a little out there

[QUOTE=Mister Blue Sky]I don't think so.[/QUOTE]

Some guys at work were talking about the early Beatles days, and they said that Ringo used to be so drunk somedays that it wasn't even him on drums on some of the recordings.

Interesting. I think I've heard something like that. Maybe someone can check the Anthology?

I know that PAul played Drums on "Back in the USSR" but I don't know about the early drumming.

I'm not sure if it's true, I was just wondering if anyone knew anything more about that.

I'm fairly certain Ringo wasn't an alcoholic, but I could be wrong.

He doesn't seem like one. He's too witty to be a heavy alcoholic.

edit: what in the hell is wrong with you guys? we're not against metal (or atleast i'm not)

I'm not against Metal but I do dislike some ignorant people who listen to it.

Ringo doesn't seem like the type to have problems, but then again neither did Charlie Watts.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]I'm fairly certain Ringo wasn't an alcoholic, but I could be wrong.[/QUOTE]


Actually....I'm not sure when, but him and his wife (the former Bond babe:eek: ) actually went to rehab over drinking problems.

Charlie Watts had problems??? NOOOOOOOOOOOOZ!!!!!!!!!!

/is ignorant, apparently

I have no problem with metal, personally. I don't see the point of making a whole new forum just to seperate rock and metal.

Oh noes, you must be informed.

Back in the mid 80's when the Stones were... er... sucking pretty bad, he started to get a Herion and Alcohol addiction, which was caused in part because he was getting a divorce from his only wife.
Or something along those lines. :)

Yeah, when some tabloid reporter asked him if he thought that Ringo was the best drummer in the world, he jokenling replied: "Ringo's not even the best drummer in the Beatles."

I'm 99% sure that John said that.

I think all the Rolling Stones had some drugs problems. No one was like Richards though. A while ago someone here told me that Mick Taylor left the Stones because Jagger and Richards did too many drugs and it was affecting their performance.

I don't have anything against metal music, but I do think that it makes rock get way under-represented. The alt and indie thread is pretty good for current rock though.

Exactly, Keith took it to the degree where he's quite lucky to be alive.

Oh, looks like John had a knack for saying potentially upsetting things to reporters...

Meh, I can't listen to metal* but I dont hate it or anything.

*Black Sabbath doesnt count as metal

*excluding Iron Maiden

Thats pretty much my amount of metal tolourance. Actually, I love Maiden and Sabbath, and you could call Dream Theater metal...

I dont love Maiden but I love Sabbath.

/occasionally listens to Maiden, Motorhead, Metallica, and Slayer

No black/death metal, though. Can't stand that stuff.

There is no reason whatsoever for a seperate forum, end of story. You don't think there are enough rock threads? Make some. Gonna bitch because no one replies? Deal with it, it's the internet.

NP: Arcturus-White Noise Monster

I think some of you prog fans may actually like these guys, at least their newest album which is pretty much all clean vocals.

I listen to Maiden and Pantera

:o

Metal's something I just don't like. From what metal I've heard, I don't really like any of it. I haven't heard that much though, and I don't think it's possible to dislike an entire genre, so I'm still waiting to discover some metal band that I like.

What have you heard?

The first metal I liked was power metal, mainly because of the clean vocals.

The vocals I've heard are the main reasons I haven't liked metal. What are some bands with clean vocals? I may like that.

Iron Maiden. Bruce Dickinson has some great clean vocals in my opinion, better than most other metal singers.

Rhapsody
Blind Guardian
Dream Evil
Dragonforce
Sonata Arctica
Edguy
Angra
Dream Theater
Iron Maiden
Nightwish
Iced Earth

Pretty much all power metal minus bands like CoB and Kalmah. Also progressive metal mixes harsh and clean a lot.

I'm listening to Iron Maiden on xsao right now.

can anyone actually play thunderstruck?? on guitar??

queensryche had good clean vocals too.

i listen to some old metal and a fair amount of more recent bands. tomahawk, dillinger escape plan, pantera, megadeth, and others. i have eclectic music tastes.

i know paul played drums on some tracks off of the white album because ringo had briefly quit/gone on vacation.
