Hysterical !

good one

hahahaha!

I need to get in a band, bands are a lot of work so you need to find the right guys. I'm willing to try different ways as long as they dont cost money. Going out to bars for a week looking for people wastes to much $. I find its tough to find people who share common interest in music and ideas for this.

Agreed.

I had a great amp at one time... back when I was briefly learning guitar. An Ampeg Reverberocket. I loved it... but since I never got serious about playing, I decided to sell it. But that thing had GREAT sound.

And it looked like this:

Anybody like the Traynor YGM-3. I find them hard to like. Piercing treble at low volumes and flubby bass at mid to high volumes. Should I swap the speaker? Anybody know what speakers it likes? Or should I just trade it for a Fender Deluxe-amp?

I thought this amp should have sounded better than it does. I can get good sounds out of it but it takes to much tweaking the dials.

Whats the best 1x12 speaker to use with the Orange Tiny Terror. The Orange 1x12 w/celestion 30 sounded like mud. Ive tried one with a 4x12 loaded with greenbacks, but I'd like to use one with a 1x12 cab as a practice amp, for 70s punk to get old marshall sounds from a small package. I don't want any heavy metal distortion just overdriven 70s marshall sounds. Anyone have experience with this?

ASH BASS, Nuff said.

Very prolific man.

he is an absolutely freak in the best meaning!

Picked up a DVD on clearance from Amazon a while back for about 5bucks, 80 minutes of Milkshakes & Thee Headcoats.

"The Genius Of Billy Childish" 2004 Cherry Red Records

Amazing the stuff you find on Amazon not on the IMDb

Listening to Courtney Love speak incoherent gibberish for 2 minutes makes me want to kill myself. If anything, he was due.

Also, I think In utero was a pretty good album considering their fame when they made it. Anyone else?

Amen, brother. Amen.

Regarding Nevermind, this might be the best thing to ever come out of that album:

I like them without the pop style drumming of dave grohl or whatever his name is.   I never followed any media crap on Kurt or Love, I could care less.

I threw pennies at Kurt while he was playing an acoustic song during a Mudhoney/Sonic Youth concert, my friends say it was my fault that kurt killed himself.

I ran in to kurt once when I was selling records at flea market in CA back in 91, He browsed through my records and found a bootleg 7" of his and told me that I should let him have it because he made that record, I told him I didn't care who he was & that record sells for two dollars and fifty cents if he wanted it. So he put the record back and walked away.

Seen some great noisy shows from Nirvana back in 89/90 I remember when there use to be only 30 people to show up for their concerts. 

Back around the time when Nevermind was coming out we had a big conference for this corporate company that I used to manage a record shop for  ...so the CEO comes up and talks to me and asks me what the next big thing is going to be, having sampled the record prior to release I told him about how I liked Nirvana but I wasn't digging the new album coming out from Geffen & I thought that all the college kids were going to fall in love with it and it was going to be a #1 album.       I was right, so was Geffen.

All I got to say is that during those times kids were listening to the Back Street Boys and shitty commercial HipHop, Garth Brooks & Micheal Jackson ALWAYS had number one albums and Nirvana was the first band to come around and keep Garth & Micheal from getting #1.   

In a way,  I was sad & happy at the same time. Happy cause at least the kids that were over-exposed to the shitty commercial music could now have a new direction to turn to. Sad because it was the obvious first sign of small record labels that put out good music begin to sell out to the big guy. SubPop Record club was fun times back in the day.

There is too much overproduced music and not enough Trash!

Yeah, and can you imagine what the world would be like if we "took out" all the schmucks in rock'n'roll? It would be very stale indeed. Rock'n'roll ain't about being a nice guy or a saint. Bad music for bad people... made by bad people!

I wouldn't blame him for being a schmuck to everyone around him, all the fucking hippies at that time around must have been very hard to deal with then. Brian Jones was rad.

I love the dude's contribution to RNR, but having read every Stones article/book/biography I could get my grubby mitts on over the years the guy was a schmuck to everyone around him.  Plus he beat on women. Maybe deserving death is a bit harsh, I'll concede, but the universe has a way of taking out the trash.

He may have deserved it? How's that?

BRIAN JONES!!!! He may have deserved it...but, hey, Ruby Tuesday.

TeenFink said:

eh? really?

i don't really think much of him. overrated. nirvana's first album was alright i guess, but i could never understand the adoration for them or him.

i think a more important discussion would be "WAS BOBBY FULLER MURDERED?" or what about BRIAN JONES?

kurt cobain. pfft.

interesting article about Brian Jones death

Oh, and as for Cobain. The dude was alright I guess, if you like very unoriginal musicians. Had a great taste in music though, I enjoy going through bands he listed as influential and listening to them sometimes.

Looks gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooddd:)

Thanks Muck!  I'm still trying to understand all the bells & whistles that go along with everthing on here, so I hope Kopper has the patient of a saint!  I'm not very computer savvy, but hell, it can't be THAT hard...

What a cool story, other than you getting blamed for stealing!  I have drank with Jeff Clayton of ANTiSEEN, but no beers with the Buzzcocks!  What an awesome memory!

Koko Loko said:

I got to meet the Buzzcocks. I was the photographer (and maybe a little bit more) for their opening band one year, and I got to steal a couple beers from their cooler when I was only sixteen. Then when We all later went to the after party on a rooftop in LA, I asked Steve Diggle for a cigarette and I was so drunk somehow everyone was blaming me for stealing his cigarettes after that....

Well, it can't be Chi-town

Agreed. This site is like none other. Probably the coolest one out there. Love it so much!

I really don't like The Exploited, The Casualties or The Virus. How's that? This list is too hard to make, haha.
