You know, I can enjoy the occasional spin of a Motley Crue or Van Halen record as part of a High School flashback. The extended squeaky guitar solos can be kinda miserable, but most of it is solid pop. The stuff I can't stand is the Metallica type stuff. Fuckin' death dirge after death dirge.No. In fact, I really hate that shit.

I just never understood the appeal of GnR (Axl Rose is a fucking asshole, anyway), Poison, or most of those '80s/'90s hard rock or hair metal bands... there were always just way too cheesy for me to take seriously. About as close to "hard rock" as I get is AC/DC, and that's strictly the early, Bon Scott-era stuff. There are a few other '70s "classic rock" bands that I can tolerate, too, like Cheap Trick, Thin Lizzy, etc., but I don't know if that'd be classified as "hard rock" or not. Generally, though, I heard enough of '70s arena rock while I was growing up to last a lifetime.

I understand...maybe I'm sick!!!!and I'm not saying I like all that stuff...just one song here, that song there...ok I will go to see a doctor, or an exorcist!

Ok I could be totally insane but that "it's so easy" song by the Guns 'n' Roses kicks my ass...oh and also "talk dirty to me" by Poison...
No crazy-like-me here???

I'm new to the Hideout, but have been listening to many podcasts since my lovely wife bought me an iPod this year. And I sincerely think that GaragePunk is the most awesome collection of podcasts around! If anyone wants to reply, that's fine. But I just needed to throw that out there to show my appreciation.

I hadn't thought much about people reviewing older releases, but yeah, why the hell not. Glad to see there's at least some interest in this.In my opinion it would be great to have reviews here...not only about today's stuff, but also about not-so-much-known great stuff from the past (long and short time)...the reviewers' group could be composed by garagepunk podcasters plus some other "we-know-you-know-what-you're-talkin'-about" people...
it could be useful to have a "file under" section (for example: if the hellacopters are your favorite band, what you have to listen to...), and a sort of best records profile of each reviewer, to know his/her musical taste...
it could be also useful to have different taste reviewers to write about the same record...
(ok maybe today i worked to hard, and it's to late...must go to bed)

It sounds like a great idea! I'd love to be a reviewer... you can sign me up!

seems there is no definitive answer if this is happening or not. hopefully someone has news soon...i need to ask for time off work if it's a go...
September 1, 2008 12:51 PM CDT
I can't go to this either :( I wish I had known in advance two months is not enough time for me. I will continue with my plan to attend budget rock.
September 1, 2008 10:22 AM CDT
somebody on the band list told a friend of a friend that it isn't happening at all...if it IS happening, they have to announce it soon to give people time to plan accordingly...what days, etc...
