Seeing the Menzingers with Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties (which is the side project of the Wonder Years' singer) next Saturday, and then the Wonder Years in full on September 4th which I'm super excited for. I also caught Coheed and Cambria two weeks ago for their first headlining arena show ever which was special as fuck, they were amazing and the crowd energy was unreal too.

I fucking LOVE The Menzingers

Bunch of "Safe Space" losers, believing cancel culture is a virtuous cause. These weak minded fragile little twats will be, if not already, responsible for the decay of society.

 Rock in Rio 2001 it's the perfect example

Was that the opener or encore opener?  Either way yes you're right it was badass. Also even though as a whole the MTV awards in 2002 were a bit meh but the first 45 seconds were incredible. 

Gibbo is the GOAT

Welcome to the Jungle would be a badass opener if done right with the lighting. It's So Easy has such killer attitude to start off with  so it's a great opener. Those two songs are the best to open with I think.  

I'll fight everyone

Dope Machines - The Airborne Toxic Event

Monsoon - Robbie Williams

Haven't seen any yet. Haven't seen any since February 2020.  But I'll make my return to concerts in November in Vancouver for  Smashing Pumpkins with Jane's Addiction & Poppy. 

This is What I Live For - Blue October

Hollywood Park - Airborne Toxic Event

Hurry Up and Wait - Soul Asylum

The album sucks and this reunion if anything invalidates that entire era of the band. And thank god. Nobody at these shows really cares about the CD songs at all. It's a lame footnote in the legacy of GnR.  Mostly because it's not a GnR album. It's just fucking Axl and some guys. The only reason those songs are being played is for Axl to save face. He has to throw those songs out there because he can't and won't ever admit the whole CD era was a failure and a waste of time and was NOT worth ending the original/Illusion era band. The only reason they have those songs in the set is so Axl can desperately attempt to validate the CD era. 

Just an average fall day in the Yukon

I'm inclined to think this could be a troll job as a retaliation for another troll job not too long ago, but that particular troll job was less convincing cause it involved songs we have no proof of....these two songs we KNOW damn well have been in people's hands for years, so maybe it's not a troll job?

It's not a troll job. Why would I ever wanna waste my time faking that I've heard some newly leaked old ass shitty NuGnR songs. I barely even post online anymore so I'm definitely not wasting my time coming here to play some dickhead game with others to get back at trolls I don't give two shits about to begin with 

They did actually leak. It's legit. 

They both absolutely suck. It's disgusting to think this was the hill Axl was willing to die on when it came to GnR. Slash's Snakepit stuff wasn't good enough but this welfare version of a cross between NIN and Ministry was his vision? Horrible. 


**Edit: Holy smokes! My inbox can't handle that many messages and the forum won't let me reply to everyone quickly enough.  I actually don't have them. My buddy sent them to me in a facebook message like a voice clip. I don't actually have mp3s of them to share and have no idea how to download them and stuff. Sorry. 

 

Meh. I thought it was fine but not good and not bad. I don't think I'll ever watch it again. I liked how Han and Chewie met, thought it was lame how Han became Han "Solo" and hated the surprise cameo at the end. Other than that though there wasn't anything I really hated about this movie but there was also nothing really compelling or interesting about it either. It's just kinda there..... I did find the music annoying. It felt way to Indiana Jones Adventure like.  Rogue One was much better I think. 

The lyrics were poorly thought out, no matter how much Axl tries to defend them and no matter how many delusional fans say they get it and it's ok. We all get it, it's still not ok. Never was, never will be. It's not surprising they omitted it. It's a real shame Axl chose those lyrics because in my opinion it's his best vocal performance on any song and the music is kickass and the guitar solo has always been one of Slash's best I think. Had the lyrics been less hate filled and laced with racial overtones the song would be an absolute classic on rock radio then and a mainstay on classic rock radio now. Axl fucked up. There was no need to use the words he did to express his point. 

Here's a recent picture from two days ago. Posting it mostly to piss off those who hate this pose and think I do it to "show off". I hope they hate it still  Also posting it cause the scenery is amazing. The second photo, which I took earlier in the day gives a different perspective of where I was( Kluane National Park in Yukon, Canada).

Foo Fighters -  Calgary, September 6th.
U2 - Belfast, October 27th
U2 - Dublin, November 5th
Metallica - Las Vegas, November 26th

Yes. You could put a list of his 30 best songs which ever those are for each individual and his catalogue is very enjoyable I think.  I also agree with soon, Circus was really good. 

Yeah ok I could see the difference. I do know that at Metallica there was no mosh pit in the first few rows though. I could look back about 30 rows deep or so and see a little pit once in a  while. I would think those who are there to mosh would just move back and mosh but I guess you're right it would spread those who want to mosh out a bit more so it makes it more difficult to gather as a group.  Never really understood moshing myself. I get jumping up and down and rockin out but never really saw the appeal of smashing into each other and not paying attention to what's going on on stage. Either way won't have to concern myself this time around as I'll have rserved seating.
