Actually I would go If they came to Europe. They are amazing live.

I would even Bring a Picture of my fangirl shrine for Chad that I have in my room so the band can sign it.
As long as the rocks areny flying!

Seriously tho they are doing an album play through tour. Those are the best.. especially if it's a fan album. I hope you get to see it.

Totally agree here. I'll make a joke about your bands.. you can make fun of mine too. Just know I know deep down that everyone has different tastes.

Hell.. avenged in its own is a love or hate band. There is no in between.

Bruno mars has a full band.. he doesn't write samples. Id consider him soft rock. As the same as kesha. Rainbow was definitely more a soft rock album over pop. But people generalize her as pop cause of her first few. I think the same of Bruno.. still waiting for new material from him too.

Theres quite a few pop artists that I can tolerate. Lorde is another. Her first album was so good taylor swift had to copy her sound on the reputation album. The lorde brought melodrama and that was ALL instrumental. There are some pop artists that get it.

Idk... I hear more similarities with late 70's hard rock than anything else if I were to nitpick.

Maybe AFI are drawing from the same references and inspirations as Tool so that's why it sounds similar.

Keep rockin with Dokken. George Lynch was FIRE on the guitar. I almost got arrested with Wild Mick Brown, but we escaped onto the tour bus, where George's "Mista Bones" guitar was... Mick let me play it.

Ed, Wild Mick Brown is my goddamn Hero! You need to tell us this story! Papa Lynch is a God, he got the name Mr Scary from Randy Rhoads, who said he was "scary good"!

Edward - you can talk about Dokken and Nickelback all you want, but you aren't the man if you don't listen to Vuco - one of Croatian's finest.


The title of the song means "Black Woman", I think that speaks for itself.
Is it weird that I love this? Tasty solo, but that tone is horrendously bad, hahahah. The video's story reminds me of a bad MTV skit. Was this a Euro Song Contest song?

It wasn't (as far as I know). It's just this guy Siniša Vuco being himself - which is something between metal and Balkan pop/folk music.

So it being corny is the point haha.

The both use les Paul's. Obviously the tone isnt on every song.. but theres a lot of similarities to me. One reason I was easily drawn to the last 2 tool albums.

Are you going to a show, Calvin?
I wouldn't go to see nickleback. Inwouodnt enjoy the show. Right now there are no shows nest me this year. Kesha I'd windsor.. 4 hour drive. And escape fate is bc? But I just saw those guys on their this world is ours 10 year tour. They arent the same band without monte.

I expect avenged to tour. Another afi. Hoping for a slim show. The crue skipped out on Canada in general (assholes).I couldn't afford tool. Right now thatd all.in can think of that I would see if possible that are or will for sure tour this year. I always post about my shows and record every moment so just keep an eye out.
