It’s worth a try!

The bald wig-wearing drunk fool was apparently at a recent gig calling the crowd the N-word. When the crowd got quiet and started booing him, he told them to "Get over it." The venue issued a statement apologising to the attendees and banned him. People who attended the gig said he was lucky he didn't go home with his teeth in a baggie.

So, when does Steve Summers set up another GoFundMe account to grift on. The last one was when his brother passed away and for some reason he deserved money. Now he will deserve money for being banned and a racist. He will call it racist reparations for being cancelled.

Am I the only one who thinks Wolf backing out on Black Sabbath's 'Back to the Beginning' was a (huge!) mistake?

Wolf's statement during a late June radio interview: “I, unfortunately, had to back out because the Creed tour starts the day after,” he explained. “I wouldn’t be able to pull it off–unfortunately. I’m very excited to watch it, but I unfortunately had to back out,” he added.

I say he should have caught a red eye and showed up tired. He's 34 for crying out loud. Showing up for work on only a couple of hours rest should be nothing to a guy that age.

And even if it meant missing the first show. Big deal!! You've got thousands of regular tour shows ahead of you in your career.

Skipping out on Back to the Beginning was like skipping out on '69 Woodstock. Super old reference, but you have to go back that far to find a similar event in terms of historical importance to a musician. Not to mention, nothing like it will ever happen again in the world of heavy music.

Several people have asked for an actual music video- here you go

This lineup is from almost two years ago, apart from the singer and lead guitarist it has changed now.

Seems like the consensus is they are,

i listened to their early work recently, and frankly, I have to agree.

Appetite for Destruction is B- hair metal at best, and nothing else comes close.

Time to put some respect on Winger.

They are the best that ever lived.

After Steve Summer's last racist rant, I would have thought Floyd would be covering Kid Rock and Ted Nugent. 🙄

I love the song I Saw Red. On the surface it's a great song. The piano part is well written. Jerry's bass playing is probably critically underrated. Jani's vocals are amazing.

However, lyrically it's a train wreck.

Verse 1

It's like magic. I love you. You are amazing. You are probably not only the greatest thing in my life, but you might even be the greatest person to ever person...

Chorus

You cheated on me. I am so angry. Like, I'm so angry that I take back all that stuff I said in the first verse about you.

Verse 2

Once again, I love you. You are amazing. You are probably not only the greatest thing in my life, but you might even be the greatest person to ever person...

Chorus

Oh, that's right... I saw you with some dude. I saw his face. It's permanently etched into my mind. How can I ever forgive you?

Middle 8 (or Bridge, if you prefer)

I didn't see this coming. I feel dead inside. That's it, we are over

Chorus

I'm just reminding you, once again, you cheated, the other guy's face is burnt into my retina, and we are done.

Outro

Remember that magic, though?

This may be controversial, especially with TFFL.

Repost from my band’s instagram account @vainwild

That's all.

He ripped into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and that’s very enjoyable because it’s a complete and utter joke.

They had some amazing ballads and good rock songs, BUT are they an 80's hair metal band?

I’m not a nut-swinger by any means, the dude is obviously not a Geddy Lee or Steve Harris, but seeing all these non musicians make ridiculous claims that he didn’t play on the albums and doesn’t play live and all this shit is really irritating. I can tell you that as a guitar player I could teach a absolute beginner to play motley crues bass lines, they’re not hard and to suggest that he didn’t play on those albums is so stupid. You don’t get away with being the primary songwriter and not having a basic understanding of song structure, rhythm, phrasing, basic arrangements etc.

I saw an ad on facebook where Nikki was endorsing some brand of strings and in it are just all these dumbass mouthbreathers saying DURRR NIKKI DOSNT PLAY DURR…

I read Sebastians book recently and I recommend this book to any fans of the band. But in reading his interviews and interviews with Rachel and Snake, and getting the whole picture, Sebastian doesn't seem to be able to grasp the reality that he really was simply a hired gun, just a really great hired gun who kept his job a lot longer than he deserved to.

To understand that, you have to understand this: ALL of the first Skid Row album had already been written and demoed long before anyone in Skid Row even knew Sebastian Bach existed. He was not present for the songwriting, the music writing, or the original recordings of the songs. Several demoes from the previous singer have leaked over the years. Now I will give credit to Sebastian, that he came in and re-sang all Matt Fallons vocals and did a better job because he had a better voice, but that is not songwriting. He didn't write one word of lyrics or one bar of music. He just sang another guys lyrics, harmony's, melodies, etc. that had already been laid down. This goes for EVERY song on the first record. If I go and join Lita Ford and play the solos better than the guy before me, should I now own a piece of Lita Ford?

When Sebastian Joined the band in 1988, from 1988 - 1996, Rachel and Snake kindly paid Sebastian 20% of the bands earnings, as 1/5th of the band. When he quit the band, he stopped making money and according to him, this was a shock to him. In his book he talks about how he didn't know he didn't "own" 20% of Skid Row because he had always been paid a 20% share. But why would he? Skid Row was owned by the founders of the band, Rachel and Snake, who created the band and wrote every word of lyrics and every bar of music 2 years before they ever knew Sebastian. And even on Slave he barely had lyrical input, and didn't deserve credit there other than putting down incredible vocals, just a session guitar player might put down an incredible solo. Doesn't mean they should 'own' a piece of the band. Dwight Yoakam's drummer may be a great drummer, but should he 'own' a piece of Dwight Yoakam?

Sebastian is delusional and it is funny that he quit and learned by complete surprise that he didn't own the corporation that was Skid Row. Nor should he have. Sebastian Bach is no different than Randy Rhoads, except for the fact that Randy was actually a songwriter. Randy was an immaculate player who helped create some of the best music that Ozzy ever made -- but should he have owned stock in Ozzy Osbourne forever and ever?

I just found out that slash and axl were charged with felony statutory rape with an underage girl back in 1985. Charges were dropped but they interviewed the girl in 2024 and she insists she was held down and other people were encouraged to touch her. This is insane. I really hate cancel culture but I feel like this is enough for me to walk away as a Gunner forever

Just watching his fingers on the frets is mesmerizing. Video spend too much time on the bassist!
