Freaker's Ball with Asking Alexandria and Disturbed.

You're lucky to have seen Ringo. He cancelled some shows due to him having Covid. Hope he is okay soon. The man is over 80. Bless him.

He's fine. He rescheduled dates earlier this year when someone in his touring group. Like everyone else now, he rescheduled his dates and moved on with the tour just fine.

Ringo Starr and Jack White kicked a lot of ass.

Up next, Weird Al in a few fews followed by Stevie Nicks a week later.

Which begs the question on which is the worst film on Elvis. I remember one, which I think was called Elvis Lives, that was so bad it was hilarious. But I think that might've been the intention. 

I remember HATING Elvis And The Beauty Queen when I was a kid. Some made for TV movie horseshit.

Qouting this again because it may have been lost on some folks that I'm very thankful to have @Deanas a supporter of my podcast and YouTube channel

Since purchasing the bluray, I've watched it again.

The best film on Elvis, in my opinion.

It's the best Elvis movie by a mile, IMO. 

Also, there's next to no focus on his childhood lol

Pretty disappointed. Was mostly delivered with the vibe of a shallow corny TV-movie. Direction and editing were horrendous.

3/5 and that's probably being a bit generous.

I was very happy with it, especially the last hour which was told much much better than the section of his life is usually treated.

I feel "Blood On The Dancefloor" is highly underrated. "Is It Scary?", "Unbreakable" and my favorite of his songs "Who Is It" also come to mind. Even "Liberian Girl" is underrated imho, because it's so good and nobody ever talks about it.

I'm reasonably sure I'll do follow up videos to this one. Those songs would all make my list eventually. 

Our Thursday video is up

Those search results are certainly wonderful though!

Yeah I was scouring Amazon for pre-loaded systems, trouble is they're either more expensive than I'd like or one way or another have some kind of drawback.

Do you know 'Batocera'? Thinking I'll set that up on a USB or external SSD(to plug into a computer) and buy some nice controllers to go along with it and it's off to the races. The massive amount of content and freedom of it is staggering. Been meaning to get an emulation setup for ages. Does require fucking around with sorting the ROMs but supposedly it's not too difficult. Will be worth it in the end and won't have an ocean of filler.

I know a little about RetroArch and nothing about Bocotera BUT, I can point you in a good direction. 

When I first got into setting up a Raspberry Pi, I dound a YouTube channel called ETA Prime. The guy does a TON of videos about everything to do with emulation. He's got tutorials for every way to emulate something. 

So I would tell you to hit his channel and search for videos on what you want to do. I think you'll be surprised by how easy everything is to setup if you just follow his steps.

Hey do you guys(or anyone else) know of a retro console I can buy that is nice quality and plug n play with great games pre-installed ready to go?

Buying as a gift for someone so don't wanna fuck around with setting up ROMS etc. I was looking at the 'Miyoo Mini V2' which looks really good tbh but it doesn't have an HDMI port and I'm wanting a console that fully supports 2 players. Also, while it does have a fuckload of games it has duplicate entries which is a minor gripe but quite annoying.

Sorry, I saw this earlier and forgot to reply. Someone else may have a better answer, but I don't know too much about retro consoles. I went the Raspberry Pi route but I get what you're saying about not wanting to mess around with ROMs. 

I've seen a few YouTube channels mention that eBay and even Amazon have some retro consoles with pre installed games. So my only suggestion would be to scour those sites for something that looks decent.

I want to make everyone aware that the UYI Cash Grab box sets are already being discounted in the USA, 6 weeks before release. I predict the 7CD+BD box will be around $190-$200 in the USA on release date. The lesson here is, DO NOT pay full price for this rip off release!!! Be smart and wait 6 months (or less), and get the CD Super Deluxe Edition for under $100.

DeepDiscount.com is a sister company of Pop Market and they too have the UYI boxes on sale at a "Deep Discount". I have purchased many CDs/DVDs/BDs from DD since 2002 and have only had a few issues with them over the years. The UYI SDE CD box will very likely be under $200 at Deepdiscount.com on release date. Also, DD ships internationally, although the buyer pays shipping. You can also use the code DEEP10 to get 10% off. DD also has 15% off coupon codes every other week.

YEP and this is weeks before the release. The smart play is to stream everything that's available and just wait for even further and huge discounts that will definitely happen.

It’s certainly odd. Nothing adds up here.

Careful! There's some click bait music "news" sites that use us as sources for their headlines. You're gonna screw around and get "Axl Rose Against Cure For Cancer" as a headline! 😂

You mean other fanbases don’t do heavy research into how algorithms work and come up with code words to see if they can modify said algorithms even further to back up the idea of an album existing that’s been teased for basically decades now that probably won’t ever come out?

Yes. You hit the nail on the head. That's exactly what I meant 😂.
