I have never been in a position to judge a man for what he does or does not do. Yet, I think the lyrics, in the following quote, are real deep and artistic. "Snowblind" What you get and what you see Things that don't come easily Feeling happy in my vein Icicles within my brain (cocaine) So...

San Francisco Paper Chooses Randy over Hendrix :*)

Check out the following quote: Resurrecting the band Peter Hartlaub Tuesday, June 16, 2009 "We're getting the band back together ..." Ever since John Belushi made the declaration in "The Blues Brothers," those six words have become an inevitability in popular music. The original ...

Just when did the non-musical parts of a musicians life become a part of an artists music? Back in the first half of the twentieth century a drummer name Gene Krupa was accused of smoking marijuana. What did that have to do with his drumming? All this behind the music stuff bores me. If your hot you...

8) I agree with Cpt. Matt.... I play a six-string version of The Byrds song Eight Miles High. Randy lived in a music store in his youth: of course!---having a 12-string electric guitar in his studio work with The Blizzard of Oz , gave him the depth and harmony he always aimed for. 12 strings are rea...

Music is meant to be heard and not seen. When I went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum there was a Hammond B-3 that was used in the original Allman Brothers live concerts and recordings. I stepped over the security ropes and hammered my hands down on the double keyboards---the organ made a s...

Dave, to the best of your recollection, what tour bus models did Black Sabbath and Blizzard of Oz bands use the most? Did they ever use a Prevost tour bus? What was/is your favorite tour bus brand? Thanks.

I've only read Matt's comments on this one page, so I really have no idea what's going on here. But I have to comment on one thing, the Quiet Riot Laughing Gas and Queen Brighton Rock comparisson. Kevin once told me that Laughing Gas was kind of influenced by Communication Brakdown by Zeppelin and ...

The picture is on the back of the 2002 remasters, but with Randy and Bob edited out. :lol: :roll: I'm with Matt! WHAT!!! That is utter BULLSHIT!

Yes, the display does look kind of tawdry. However, the PDV and stage outfit speak volumes. If you travel to Cleveland to see it, make sure you go to The Cleveland Music Hall about 5 blocks away. South-west from the lake and The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. The Cleveland Music Hall is where most th...

Check Out This Guitar Made From Plastic Trash Bags

Only at the Nashville Earth Day Festival, held in the city's Centennial Park (complete with its own Parthenon) would we find a bass guitar made from melted and molded plastic bags. This is the best usage I have seen of plastic bags yet. It's actually an art project by a Metro Nashville student for t...

This thread is starting to remind me of a Sherlock Holmes or Columbo detective investigation. And, that is a cool 8) thing... Tour bus drivers are usually on a rotation status. If a band has a friend who can pilot that monster bus---they will hold on to him and pay him accordingly. Who is the "...
