Re: Hollywood Vampires Question
I saw the videos. Lots of people and seemed like a good response from the crowd. I actually liked the second Vampire album and would like to see them cut way down on the covers and do more original stuff.

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
Like it better than the first song. I’ll echo the spoken word style vocals can stop now. And I too would like to see some Beasto Blanco / Glam / shred influences on the album. And I’m down with exploring a different producer. Ezrin is excellent but the sound is getting a wee bit stale IMO. I’m still...

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
My concern with the first song released has nothing to do with what era I prefer or what circumstances are now. All the hype about the new album by Alice was it was going to a raw, minimal overdub in the studio release. I’m Alice sounds a little slick to my ears. My mind is open to what’s to come. J...

Re: Vampires play Paranoid with Tony Iommi
Seems to be the show to catch in Europe. Good turnout and you never know who might walk on the stage.

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
IMO Road Rats is a timeless rock song. I’m sure the band will do it justice and leave their mark on it.

Re: I'm Alice
It just seems that EVERYONE wrote better from 1969-1979....the albums that came out during this decade for almost every group are now considered "the classics". There is a reason why they call the music from that time period “Classic Rock “. Not only was much of it very, very good, it has also stoo...

Re: I'm Alice
I’m holding off judgment until I hear the album. The single is definitely not that great but fingers crossed I’m thinking it’s just a kick off song to better things. If this does turn into a WTMN2 and Alice is going down the same road as David Lee Roth has lately, wink wink, nudge nudge heavy on the...

Re: I'm Alice
I’m thinking a single post or tweet from one person that spreads to millions almost instantly is an example of good publicity. I mean we are talking about rock n roll here and selling product and not leaking state secrets. And in those old days a lot of those leaks to magazines were planned leaks. J...

Re: I'm Alice
I thought that was probably it. Still back in the old days I remember the often used saying “any publicity is good publicity as long as they spell the name right “. Of course that was before computers and having damaging images on file or illicit emails stored forever.

Re: I'm Alice
Also! I think it would be incredible for Steven Crayn to fill in for Glen again. Maybe that's why we haven't heard from him in a while. Maybe. Even if he was invited he would more or less not be able to comment anyway. :x So help me out on this because I’ve heard things like this for a long time an...

So much hope and anticipation for that one and a big letdown. Skip going for the funny bone and head right to the jugular.

Re: I'm Alice
As for Ezrin production on recent Alice recordings, I am too noticing a rather slick and heavier hand that I don’t care for. Ezrin’s work with the past few Deep Purple albums is the opposite. They haven’t sounded this good in ages. Purple being a band with longtime members might have something to do...

Re: I'm Alice
Heard that too although I have serious doubts. Wish it was true but probably more along the lines of a few tunes mixed in with whoever he’s writing with. But I’ll take it.

Re: I'm Alice
Count me in the camp of it sounding like the instruments are turned down to low. Which was a surprise because all the hype was this album was going to be real guitar driven rock recorded with minimal takes. I know it’s only one cut and it seems like a good opener on what may be coming, but damn turn...

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
Road Rats was a very good song off a poor album. I saw it performed live and it was even better. I imagine this band will do it justice.

Re: School's Out album cover
Speaking of album covers. I have to say the back photo on the Love it to Death album has to be my all time favorite photo of the group. It just screams rock n roll. That photo is just dripping with attitude. Any memory of the shoot ?? Was it taken the same time as the cover shot ??

Bass question
Dennis am I correct in thinking you are mostly a pick guy rather than finger guy with your playing ? Are there advantages with either style or is it just a personal preference ? Seems to me some of the harder rock players use a pick. I’ve been mulling over getting a bass just for home use. A friend ...

Probably playing the currency game. Fluctuations can mean a lot in the profit margins.
