Every Motley show I have been to recently (last 3 tours - except when they toured with Megadeth) - young kids were there with parents. Parents were wasted or drunk.

Last summer, the 2 kids just sat there - about ages 9 and 13 or so - especially during when Tommy was using his camera. The look on the daughter's face said it all - shocked, outraged, ect. I was too.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh

Boo hoo!!!!!!!!

Not fair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Competition only open to US residents!

(((( Here's a letter from a fan )))) "I have just got your album. It flew all the way across the atlantic to The Isle of Lewis. I have now listened to it 4 times and it is sitting well with me. My son is 10 and he is learning the electric guitar and his wee ears pricked up when I stuck your cd onto my sound system. Keep working your guitar." - Gerry

----------Official Press Release---------- 23-year old guitarist Jon Robert Quinn is making a name for himself as a wild, yet captivating guitarist and songwriter. His shows are full of energy, emotion and pure enjoyment as he blazes through the fretboard with musical mayhem.

"He is incredible. His show is something everybody needs to experience,” said a JRQ Fan via email.

Jon Robert Quinn has become a bit of a road warrior, playing over 280 shows since May 2004 travelling up and down the West Coast. And is not afraid to genre hop providing High-Energy Rock, Jazz and Blues. He has had a lot of fun during his career performing live on television and making special appearances at fairs and festivals. One high point in his recording career was last year's release of "JeRQ THIS!" Soon after this release, he was internationally recognized as a virtuoso of guitar gaining radio play and a fan base from all around the world.

"I grew up in a household where my mother took lessons from Legendary Jazz Guitarist Johnny Smith and my father was into studio recording. I remember working in the studio with my father as a toddler helping adjust settings on the equipment." said JRQ.

Jon started playing piano at age 6 and picked up guitar at 14. Now at 23, he has what it takes to compete with some of the best. Jon Robert Quinn is talented, inspiring, a showman and truly, a virtuoso.

Jon is currently working on some new things for 2006. First off, he recently got involved with a modern rock band that actually isn't instrumental at all. Jon does guitar and vocals with this project. More information is soon to come. Also this year, the follow-up to "JeRQ THIS!" was released. "JeRQ THIS! TOO" features the familiar instrumental rock that everybody is used to, but also includes some vocal songs as well. Jon has now included vocals in all of his solo perfomances. And also this year, expect an all acoustic record with guitar and vocals. More information on all of these projects will be available soon.

yes cube? you had somefink to say? lol......linky no worky... mebbe that's the whole point...? :)

Joe, we listened to the whole track this morning of Super Colossal....loved it, sounded great. Really hope to hear ALL of the SC songs on tour this year, lol!!! Well, at least all that we've heard samples of so far!! But yeah, prolly all 13 of them.... :D

Welcome Mr. Doug Doppler, it's great having you stop by and visit with us! We listened to your sound samples from your cd on your website...they rocked!! We also saw you in San Fran Dec 27th 2004 when you jumped on stage with Joe..that was so much fun! Cracked us up when Joe just took his guitar and hugged it like he should just give up playing after hearing you, LOL!! Hope to see more of you round these here parts...and out there on tour!

Hey folks, I just uploaded a new track to my soundclick page! It's the first one from me in a while, have been in something of a creative rut I suppose, but anyway, feel free to follow this link - http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=259685 - to check out "(Unforgiven) Hammered".

It's fast paced and fairly serious without being too sad. It's a blend of two tracks - Unforgiven is the intro and then 50 seconds in it hands over to Hammered - hence the weird name!

I'm confused

Also, I took delivery of Andy's Orange Swirl and And-Thology CD's today...the man's a legend. He included, in the package, and extra CD cover of Orange Swirl which he'd signed to me personally....I love the way he does this with his merchandise customers, none of this bollocks with paying double for a signed copy!

I haven't had time to listen to all of Orange Swirl or any of And-Thology yet :-[ but what I've heard so far I've loved. I can't wait for Resolution.

Keniko....good luck with the new line-up!

Satriella....the pleasure is all mine...

death cube k...nice funky thang.....3)

Doug_Doppler...you playin' anywhere in the NYC area soon?

What? A competition only open to US residents?

What a shock...

Hey those people who organise the competitions... there is a world out there beyond the shores of America!!!! Also, there is such a thing as a postal system to allow the goods to reach the destination!!!!!!! :(

Suzie, I dunno, something to do with not being from "the land of the free".

haha. Seriously, I don't know what the deal is but it's ridiculous....are the rest of us meant to feel apologetic or ashamed or something because we don't come from the US?!

962 Rant over yet??

mikesb, haha, yeah rant over!

Satriella - I'm with you on the competition thing! I got very over excited at getting a chance to win some new toys and then saw it was only open to US Citizens! Boo!

962 - Hey, Simon! I'm actually happier with the tone that I'm getting from the amp at the moment but I'm trying to cover all my bases by having a pedal that recreates a nice meaty rock tone without fuzzing up too much and that can be pushed into RAAAWKKK mode if need be.

We've played quite a few benefit gigs over the years where there are 2 or 3 bands sharing kit on the same bill so I was trying to ensure that no matter what amp I plug into my pedals can always recreate the sound I'm after when I plug into the clean channel.

-Copy and paste the link. This is a recording I did a few days ago, I did all the guitar parts, check this out. This kid wanted to cover Iron Maiden's 'The Trooper' and asked me to do the guitar parts...check out how it came out! Let me know what you all think. Some parts of the solos aren't as clean as I hoped they would have been, but still is great. Vote for it to if you like it! I'd appreciate some feedback on it to. My guitar tone in the song isn't my usual tone, I couldn't lug my setup over to record, so just went through a Digitech Metal Master (mixer output to add warmth). Still, sounds pretty good.

Leaked Guns N' Roses Tracks Give Fans Hope

NEW YORK - Guns N' Roses fans went into frenzied overdrive when three studio-quality tracks from the mythical "Chinese Democracy" album were leaked onto the Internet.

The leaks came just weeks after frontman Axl Rose ended his hermit-like lifestyle by venturing out to a Korn tour launch party in Los Angeles and to trendy nightclubs for some post-birthday bashes (his 44th) in Manhattan.

Asked at the Korn bash about "Chinese Democracy," which has been in the making for a decade, Rose told Rolling Stone.com that "people will hear music this year."

The tracks leaked Wednesday take a different direction from Rose's traditional raunchy Sunset Strip-style rock. "Better" has emo/industrial touches mixed with Rose's trademark vocals and hard rock backdrop. "There Was A Time" is a rough studio mix of a power ballad with similarities to GNR's classic "Estranged." "IRS" is closer to the sound of yesteryear, with powerful guitar solos and classic rock flavor.

Rose's manager, Merck Mercuriadis, ordered the Internet sites to remove the links, but declined to comment on them. Fans also sent one of the leaked tracks to radio stations. Mercuriadis said cease-and-desist orders were sent to the stations, but some, such as WAAF in Boston, still had "IRS" in heavy rotation Monday night.

News also surfaced Monday that several music festivals, such as the Rock in Rio-Lisboa and the NovaRock festival in Austria, had booked the band to play in May and June, respectively.

Lisa Reed, wife of keyboard player Dizzy Reed, said on her husband's web site that "all signs point to (the album) getting closer and closer," and she pleaded with fans not to leak the rest of the album.

Cliff The GV-2 should be good for you. I'll let you know if I find one for cheap. Gary Moore used the original Guv'nor pedal.
