What's your most fucked up family story?

I have even busier (but fulfilling) life in recent years (job with long hours, baby, moved to a large rural property that requires a lot of maintenace, etc.). Anyway, I was going to post this on Facebook, but I was worri...

Re: Your top 2014 concerts

I only saw one show, Black Sabbath. It was a solid rock show. They played all the songs exactly like they are on the album, which is not my preference, but they do it well. I'd seen Ozzy before, but never Iomi and Butler. I just wish they could have kept Bill Ward on board (although the drummer they...

Re: NIN's Ilan Rubin Talks Eric Avery's Exit

It could have nothing to do with Eric's technical ability. His style or vibe may have just not meshed with the band and songs. It happens.

Don't forget, Belew wasn't included either, and he is a very technical player.

Re: Perry sings mountain song with FF and Joe Walsh

This isn't a scientific sample, although it appears they were able to find at least a few people in a single day that would stand up for this "muslim". This actually makes me pretty proud of my fellow citizens.

Maybe if Dave had stayed with the Chili Peppers he would have the income to afford a place like Flea's, which is also for sale now:

Dave was always closer to Chad than anyone one else in the RHCP. Those look like genuine smiles.

This was at the recent MusiCares Ozzy tribute.

Dave's little fan club is a weird group. Check out this chick: she has a tattoo of Todd Newman! Who the hell gets a tattoo of the friend of a C list celebrity? This is more ridiculous than the Paris Hilton "being famous for being famous" phenomenon. :eyes: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BnVwaHFIQAAZXkq...
