life_247 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Didn't Depp play Minor Swing by Django Reinhardt in the movie Chocolat - as in thats acutally him playing it on film. (He also plays on a few Oasis tracks but thats hardly virtuoso stuff ) He's meant to be pretty good - at least good enough to be in a celeb jam band type thing.

RussTCB Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 During one of the red carpet interviews last night, Alice kept trying to talk up Depps guitar playing. Depp was like "No no, I'm just a guy who's lucky to be here" and he seemed pretty sincere about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archtop Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I loved it, theatrics, humour completly OTT, I'm betting Lemmy would have had a chuckle at the thought of Ace of Spades being blasted at the Grammy's. The camara sweep of the audience amused me, everyone looking on politely. Is it me or is Johnny Depp morphing in to tad better looking Andy McCoy.

BadApples87 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 They should have done a tribute to Scott Weiland, in addition to Lemmy. All the pop princesses and posers in the crowd at the Grammys suck ass. Actually, the Grammys suck ass.

CheapJon Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) I think some of those who didn't like Kendrick's performance would absolutely worship if Axl did something like this back in 93-94. Obviously not rapping, but in his way. I thought it was sort of good. Duff likely sang because he was the bass player, right? Thought the voices sounded cool together.

They're not a fucking classically trained orchestra, they're a goddamned rock band. That was sleezey, gritty, raw, and fucking loud. You think Lemmy would have wanted fucking polished? Jesus. That was great, l thought. There's gritty and raw and then there's unrehearsed and shitty. That was more the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teroz Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 The vocals from Duff and Alice were the best part by far, cant blame Matt either. But geez those guitars, I mean...they are shite. I am a total mediocre player, and I have no illusions about my ability, but I could have pulled Depps quality on my average day. Geez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moreblack Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) Would've helped if they knew how the song is supposed to sound. They completely lost the intense speedy vibe of Motorhead. Edited February 16, 2016 by moreblack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babooshka Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) I just watched it on youtube, and I can't stand that sort of editing. Flashing all over the place with quick cuts. You see nothing, you don't get a sense of the performance at all. Edited February 16, 2016 by Babooshka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jephro Rucastle Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Does anybody know what kind of bass Duff is playing? Basically like his signatire model (P/J pickups, P body, J neck) and is says "Duff" on the round part of the headstock, but i cant read the small lettering along the bottom. Thanks for any help. FWIW, its not because I thought it sounded good (mix was awful) I'm just into gear. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Awesome dedicated to Lemmy. Saw Duff and Matt. Saw someone interviewing Alice, Johnny and Joe Perry on the red carpet. Not many other rockers. Ghost was there and won a grammy for metal performance, but I had to see it on youtube.com The stupid woman who interviewed them was so rude asking them what their whole get up was about? Really? I mean shouldn't these people know about the musicians they will interview before they make rude comments and show how stupid they are? I guess if you're not a rapper no one cares about what music you do. Very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not because of drug use, it's because he isn't on level with BB King, Glenn Fry, Lemmy and David Bowie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't that almost 30 years ago? And wasn't it the first year they had a metal/rock combination award? Metallica has gone on to win I think a bunch of Grammy awards. They've gotten over it. Been almost 30 years, perhaps you can let your anger go as well? And why wouldn't pop princesses be involved in an awards show that honors and gives awards to the most popular music? Posers? Who are the posers? People who don't love metal? Weidland wasn't big enough of a cross over music star to warrant a tribute song. Maybe at a Golden Gods or Hard Rock awards show. But if the Grammys did song tributes to every musician who died then the show would be six hours long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People's standrads when it comes to performance has plummeted so fucking low it's sad. And before you or anyone else go on about me being close minded about music, it has NOTHING to do with the music and EVERYTHING to do with performance. Kendrick's performance was incredible. It has everything to do with you being close minded. What a mess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) Well I quite liked it. Edit The Alice cooper clip that is. I would rather drown in my own fecal matter than sit through a whole grammy or oscar ceremony. Edited February 17, 2016 by DieselDaisy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
