So I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on a couple of albums that I have not heard yet.

Orianthi release a few months back

Slash's new album.

Also for all you old school rockers, Ratt just released a new album! Yikes!

Austin, that looks like a very cool box set, thx for the suggestion.

My music collection is on the small end, I have about 120 CD's and 10 DVD's. Small quantity but high quality :)

Last week I wanted to hear some Pantera in the car, and ended up with Rage Against the Machine's debut CD, has not left the car in a week, sooooo very kick ass!!

I went to a concert tonight with some friends...not my usual type of music, but I still had fun. The band was The Bronx, a hard rock / punk band from LA. They did an opening set where they played mariachi music (and they've even released an album of that), which was much cooler than it probably sounds now.

One of the opening bands that I liked was Violent Soho, from Australia. Have any of our down-under forumers heard of them?

She's very talented and I'll continue to support her, but I don't like the direction she's headed (I blame the record company). Here are two tracks:

According To You (first single...I don't really like the song, but I love the "Guitar Hero" music video concept)
Highly Strung (duet with Steve Vai)

I like Slash's new album a lot...knowing what I know of your musical tastes, I think you'll like it as well. It's a solid rock album with a lot of variety.

Get a loaf
Wow. I haven't logged in to this forum in probably 6-7 years, and I see the same people posting.
Yep, nothing happening on the forum of a great, but somewhat creatively extinguished guitarist. A very small incrowd remains, with sometimes an interesting link. Five guys who were here, have lots of fun, music and friendship on a secret location on Facebook. They moved on.
Goodbye and farewell.

M - great linky that vid cracked me up, I felt the need to reach in and hand him his thong...

Do The Stu - great Dave Matthews song thanks for that, you put me onto him and I really like him and his band. In fact, I learnt about partial chords from a Dave Matthews article in a guitar magazine. I really love his Christmas Song too.

Cappy - shame you had a crappy day, hope your weekend is better.

elpp, funny you mention Pantera. I put it in my car a week ago and it's still going strong! lol! Gets me to work in a great mood :-)

Ah Cappy - I like that sort of meltdown, thanks for that. Now, since your day is looking better, how about some Shoot To Thrill (with a difference)?

Do the Stu - Thanks. I think I'll pick up the slash CD on my way home tonight.

Is anybody here going to see Iron Man 2? Is anybody here Iron Man fans? I can't wait until May 7th for it. Hopefully the second one is just as good as the first one.

*Interesting Little Fact, but with no relevant meaning* I watched Iron Man last night and realized something that most people wouldn't. When I saw the movie two years ago, I waited till the end of the credits to see the little trailer at the end and on the way down, I saw Additional Guitar by Tom Morello. It surprized that he played guitar but I didn't think that much of it. But at one scene, you see him as one of the guards!!! I took another look and said,"Is that really him?". Then I remembered that he played the guitar for the movie and then it made sense to me. I know this will appeal to any Tom Morello of RATM fans to go take a look. lol

Nothing like a little Weiner on a Friday afternoon!

and that's a little "Weiner", not a "little wiener". lol!

Nobody wants that unless it walks on 4 legs and barks.

I should just probably stop now....it's only getting worse. lol!

Happy feckin' Friday peeps!!

The Law of the Garbage Truck

Alan McMoon--Great time to post a little Enya back a few pages. As usual, I'm catching up and gotta go to work today.

Michelle--You have a lot of different tastes in music and an attraction to metal that puzzles me. Then again I have many puzzlement moments. Godsmack....hmmm.....ooookeeey.

I find myself caught up in THIN LIZZY, "Wild One" from the album FIGHTING 1975.........and BOSTON, "Hitch A Ride" from the album Boston 1976....Ahhh...romatic dreams, acoustic and electric guitars together. Then there's BLUE OYSTER CULT, "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" from Agents of Fortune 1976.

Ahhh....JOE, I like "Friends" and "Searching" and "House Full of Bullets" and "Professor Satchafunkilus"......so funky and I can't keep myself from dancing!

GG2, I like a lot of heavy bands - Godsmack is one. Pantera, Disturbed, Metallica (old stuff)...hmm, I can't even think because I have Cemetery Gates blasting. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaates and the feckin Dimebag screaming guitar - woooo! If you saw my favs list on Grooveshark you'd really scratch yer head. Big band, Motown, rap, rock, metal, jazz, folk - everything but country & opera...and no Enya! lol! I think the only pop I have is MJ? If you ever wanna see me go apeshit, just play this. Ha! That's the shit! I just went from Pantera to Savatage to Busta Rhymes. lol!

Turn it up!!

edit: PL, that's a good one, isn't it :-)

Some scary news for Bret Michaels fans.

After suffering an excruciating headache late Thursday night, Michaels, 47, was rushed to an undisclosed hospital where doctors discovered he had a massive brain hemorrhage, reports People.com.

Michaels is currently in critical condition

OOOooooo I got my email and link from Best Buy for the webcast, checked it out, some teaser vids at the site playin now :)

good friday evenin to all!

hope all is well with everyone.

a little behind again on the posts. been putting in as many hours as i can now that i have a job. although i'm definately too old for this kind of crap. anyway sittin here, me and the mrs watchin our dvd's of last summers Chickenfoot tour, drinking some Cabo and eagerly anticipating tomorrow nights webcast. hope it goes off without a hitch.

as i write this Oh Yeah is playing and Joe has a light shinning behind his head and it looks kinda halo like!!

Michelle, that's exactly what I was going for, that powerful boost that Pantera gives, but my hands ended up on the RATM CD and I'm really diggin it :) All Hail Metal!!!!

Oxley11: I wouldn't call myself an Iron Man fan, but I did like the first movie a lot, and I definitely plan to watch the new one. Curious as to what exactly did Morello play on the first one, will have to check it out again.

CappySteve :- What if your thumbs tell lies!?!?!
