  1. Hi: I read the review...G & R were late starting and their gig went after midnight..so I'm glad I didn't go..

    You're not the only one. This illustrates clearly why so many shows SUCK! The slated time for the concert was 8pm. Granted there are more than one band on the bill, but I like to get to a place early for the best standing room or just to beat the crowd. So G & R come on over 4 hours after the starting time. GREAT! After enduring the aural onslaught of the other grinding bands then to be greeted by what, a potential 3 1/2 hour set by G & R? WONDERFUL!!!

    That's why I much prefer a ONE ACT show. To devote all energy and attention and to be able to NOT have to wear earplugs to KEEP the sound of noodling warmups out of my selective ears. I'm sure everyone who went woke up at 7am, chipper and ready for the new day!! :lol:

  2. From CREEM magazine 1985, one of my personal favorite Page exchanges with an interviewer:

    I agree WHOLEHEARTEDLY!!!

    I've got to tell you, I was wearing that uniform, and I didn't wear the whole uniform, god no - I just wore the boots and jodphurs and the hat. Somebody thought it was a captain's uniform, an American girl. And she was no teenager.

    :o I'm SHOCKED and DISTURBED!!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

  3. ...but Larry, their doing a three hour show while most acts do an hour and a half to two hours. He performed for nearly three hours and forty five minutes in Tokyo. They bring along enough pyro to invade, er, Canada actually.

    Quite honestly, it'd have to be a FREE ticket before I'd see either Motley Crue or Guns-n-Roses/Velvet Revolver. And to top that, 3 1/2 would be pure torture for me even if you paid me!. I had other bands in mind when referring to past ticket prices.

    The Great White concert in W. Warwick RI scared me enough to not care for pyrotechnics at a concert. I prefer my pyro's in real warfare, not the peace and love of a rock concert. ;)

  4. There are still tix 'cause there's an ad in the London paper today for this show as well as Motley Crue's gig next week..

    Back when concert tickets were relatively cheap, two good concerts within a week STILL sold out. Then again, that's when these bands that charge an arm and a leg were young and in their prime. Expensive tix for old timers? Not for me.

  5. Star Trek was all about the sex! That's what it was about from day one. Why do you think the nerd's like it so much? I can say this because I'm one of those nerd's! To an extent....

    Yeah, and it was a bit sexist too!

    "Where no MAN has gone before!", the women were just along for the ride and to be sextoys! :lol:

  6. Consider it similar to all the girls who turn Robert Plant singing  topics into those about his crotch.   ;)

    Girls will be girls, boys will be boys!

    Oh and since the next Trek project isn't for another couple of years, we've got to talk about SOMETHING! :lol:

  7. Ever seen a chick with large fake tit's swimming under water? You can see the implant bag's rippling in the water under the skin. Looks unnatural and weird!

    Because they are and it is! Anything more than a mouthful's a waste!

  8. Generally fake boobs are augmented in a way to defy gravity. They're perky. These boobs above would sag to her knees once let out of their restraints. Look how elongated they are. If she were on top, any swaying back and forth might beat you to death. On the other hand, on her back they might flop to the side. :huh:

  9. I'm downloading flac files of this bootleg right now.  I'll let you know how it sounds.  bbc6769coveronly.jpg

    I converted and burnt this and it's GREAT !! The sound quality of the earliest tunes could be better. It's all mono as was originally mixed and broadcast, but the performances are stellar!

  10. ^ That would be "Lifelines", a 4cd set, one disc of which was the April 26, 1969 famous LAForum show. Some of the tunes from that broadcast were on the Jimi Hendrix Boxset (2000). Hear My Train a Comin' from the 'Blues' cd is the live version from Berkeley in May of '70 that was originally on "Rainbow Bridge". Of course I'll get this cd but my hope is that some of the tunes have a bit of a different arrangement than the prolifery of versions already available. But ONE negative is a few of the songs have bass and drums recorded in 1985 that were added to Hendrix's guitar parts. :(

  11. Paul (always the babyface) is younger but is looking quite a bit older than Ringo nowadays. It must've been that one-legged woman who he was doing the 3-legged race with that aged him so. Ringo's looking fantastic but I haven't really enjoyed his music since "Back off Bugaloooooooo...."

  12. Setting up my DVD player to my old Magnavox TV for the FIRST TIME! I've had my DVD player since late 2004, my TV since about '95. My Maggy didn't have video/audio imputs so I had to get an RF Modulator to I could go into the antenna plug. I got that in 2004 also. Anyway, I set it up, plugged in the audio to my antiquated, but great sounding stereo, and the video thru the adapter to my TV. Sounds and looks GREAT!! I'm watching a Paul McCartney special called "Chaos and Creation at Abbey Road" on a DVD+R that my player's specs says it WON'T play, but it DOES!! :lol: Happy happy, Joy joy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
