Re: What's annoying you today?

Roughly 1/20 times I go to the grocery store I forget my wallet. I don't know why it's always the grocery store and nowhere else, but I do. I did this today. Luckily I realized as I was walking in to the store. Quite a few times I've bagged up a tonne of groceries only to realize when I go to pay. L...

Re: RHCP

John was inducted, but chose not to attend. I'm assuming based on these comments from Anthony that it was Dave's choice not to be inducted. He wants to be known more for Jane's than RHCP: “The only person who really was in question was the lovely and talented Mr. Dave Navarro,” Kiedis said. Navarro ...

Re: Now Playing...

I have a passing interest in Dub Step (I find about 30% of it is really good, the rest is crap).

I wish people like Skrillex would bring live drummers on tour with them. It would make for a more interesting show. This 18 year old kid rocks the fuck out of this song:

Re: So, uh, seen any good movies lately?

I wanted to like this movie, but I almost stopped watching the DVD after the first 20-25 minutes. I stuck it out and it got better.

Re: Underground video premieres Jan 25th on VEVO

This video had a lot of potential, but I don't think it was fully realized. They should have gone more extreme by making it really surreal. Some tits and a guy popping his eye out, whoopee. :no: Also, the band seems too disconnected from what is going on in the night club/rest of the video. Perry is...

I don't say this glibly or as a joke, but the American Empire is waning (in fact, I lament it to a certain extent). It has been slowly since the 1980's and the advent of economic globalization and the rise of countries like Brazil, India and China and the solidification of the European Union. So, th...

So Dave was clean, Anthony wasn't.

But that's here nor there....
AK was clean from sometime after Hillel's death around 88-89 until 98 (I recall an MTV news video where he talked about this in 98).
