Hey Terry how old are you?
Same age as you :flipoff: 22
Huh you hit me as older. So how is the kitty
Yeah, my taste in music is a bit older :cookoo: Damn cat is crazy!!! Left him home while I took my dog up to the mountains to hike, and he detroyed everything he could get too :mad: :mad:
The only heavy metal I really like is older shaZam!, too (Metallica, AC/DC ). Except Dope, and I only listen to heavy metal when I'm at the gym :dunno_white: get's ya a llittle more pumped up than 'margaritaville' :laugh: :laugh:
I started off listening to Metallica, AC/DC,Korn and crap like that but moved onto heavier and darker music. :thumb: My dog used to do the same thing, But to add she bit everyone who came to our house and walked in the backyard.
The cat isn't 'biting' people, but he will nibble on ya because he's teething :icon_confused:
All I have to say is, nothing beats these lyrics:
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
'this could be heaven or this could be hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, you can find it here
Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
So I called up the captain,
'please bring me my wine'
He said, 'we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the hotel california
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'relax,' said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!
I like the song but can't stand the singer.
I'm really liking this song right now:
I remember Richard Nixon back in '74
And the final scene at the White House door
And the staff lined up to say good-bye
Tiny tear in his shifty little eye
He said nobody knows me
Nobody understands
These little people were good to me
Oh I'm gonna shake some hands
CHORUS:
Somebody line 'em up
Line 'em all up
Line 'em up
Line 'em all up
Line 'em up
Line 'em all up
Line 'em up
Line 'em all up
At that time my heart was all broke
I looked like ashes and smelled like smoke
And I turned away from my loving kind
Try to leave my body and live in my mind
But it's much too much emotion
To hold it in your hand
They've got waves out on the ocean
They're gonna wear away the land
Oh I've seen corn in Kansas
And I've seen picket fences
And certain cowboy dances
I've gone lining up for shows
I've been safely placed in rows
Sure I know how it goes
Another day goes by
Little time machine
I'm breaking my brain
Over what it might mean
Just to claim the time
And to turn away
To make today today
Who waits for you
Lonely tired old toad
It's your life laid out before you
Like the broken white line down the center of the doggone road
- Chorus -
Yeah, big moon landing
People all standing up
Smiles for the loved ones
They go walking on down the aisles
Each re-engages stepping into the sun
I watch them turn like pages
One by one by one
- Chorus -
I don't know why but every time I hear Korn I think they are the New Kids on the Block of the Metal World. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Sorry Just Kan't Kut Korn. :laugh:
Im not a fan anymore, but I used to like them back in high school. That was the IN band to like along with sipknot, deftones, cradle of filth and sepultura(first singer).

Elton John
Black Sabath
Jonh Denver

Nothing beats this line.......
" I wish I was in Tijuana, eating barbecued iguana"
From the classic "Mexican Radio" by Stan Ridgway/Wall of voodoo, circ`1982
Staying in the 'obscure bands' portion of the thread:
Anyone here familiar with the Jack Rubies (yes, it's a reference to the Dallas night club owner who shot Lee Harvey)? They are a great British "jangle-pop" band from the late 80's. They only cut two albums, but they were great. I still listen to them often.
I vaguely remember the Jack Rubies. I think my highschool girlfriend had their cassette (yes tapes). Where they along the lines of TSOL and Camper Van Beethoven?
Think TSOL and Beethoven, but remove the balls (less punk influence, more pop). Still a great sound though.
I think "Book of Love" was the one song that they actually cut a video for.

I know you are a guitar player Jake....I think you might like Keb Mo....check out this song.
Ignore the video....it's crazy.
Keb Mo "Am I Wrong" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lx9C7xqpQFw)
I bought that very same Keb 'Mo CD at Virgin Records in New Orleans in the year 2000, plus or minus a year. I think he won a grammy for that, IIRC. Great country blues. Thanks for the recommendation tho! That isn't even my favorite song on that album.

Yep...I think I got it around '98. I was a little disappointed in his next albums. I wish he would've stuck with the old delta blues stuff. My friend met him at a show in Florida and Keb invited him to their room backstage. He said there were lots of brownies. :laugh:
I bet you haven't heard of this guy.
Miyavi (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ThoGOST-Gw)
He has some unnatural stuff.
What the hell? No I haven't heard of him. Reminds me of Tim Reynolds kind of. And it reminds me of the time I saw Tim Reynolds play his live solo act at the Missouri Theater. I was awstruck for a while, then tried to throw myself from the balcony. Thankfully, my friend was there, and he was as annoyed as I was, and he talked me down fromt he ledge. :laugh:

I didn't know who Tim Reynolds was so I googled him. He's not my style (neither is Miyavi but I've never seen anyone do some of the stuff he does). I think I'd get sick of both of them in about 10-15 minutes.
And you would! Tim Reynolds 15 minutes of fame came when he toured with Dave Matthews. Check out Live at Luther College. You can listen to it without reaching for the noose.
2 minutes of Dave makes me want to find a noose.
What's your take on stuff like this......
Sean Lewis (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LygLHPMBLFM)
My take?
WHERE ARE THE SNIPERS??
After seeing that, I'll volunteer :icon_rolleyes:
Here is what I like, Cory Osborn. He is a guy I saw in Memphis recently. He plays every week at BB Kings. I met him. Nice kid. He has been playing since he was 11. He is like 21 now.

:laugh:
I've been playing a long time (going on 17 years) and I've always played blues-based rock but some of this nerdy/ghey stuff is interesting to me. I find it pretty incredible someone can take Billie Jean and turn it into a pretty neat guitar tune, neat to some people anyway.

Why? It was a fun show. Not as good as their shows at the Luxor in Vegas but still fun.
There was a girl singing that had an amazing voice and they had a good guitar guy.
