Re: HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRES TRACK LISTING REVEALED

Interesting re Bruce Springsteen Alan1958- now my jaw would have dropped if Alice had got Bruce on the album- especially since I recall a tale Alice used to tell (involving Hollywood Vampires perhaps) where he and others were pouring whiskey into Bruce's boots and telling him to be the first Bruce ...

Re: HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRES TRACK LISTING REVEALED

I would think that BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN has probably shared the stage with almost EVERY icon in the music business .....( Dylan , Neil Young , Paul Simon , U2 , Prince , REM , Brian Wilson , The Clash , The Who etc ) Not long ago in London , Bruce introduced PAUL McCARTNEY on stage for the encore , by ...

Re: Top Ballads list

I Never Wrote Those Songs is a wonderful song .... I remember hoping it would be included on LIFE AND CRIMES , as the remastering was wonderful on that box , and it was possibly the only way to ever hear that track in all it's glory ... I wonder if LACE & WHISKEY will ever be considered for remaster...

Re: Every woman has a name

Mr.barlow said ;

No-usually it's because it's just another area where their husbands aren't satisfying their needs.













So THAT'S why my phone bills are so high !

I suppose i should have suspected something when she called me a " miserly , impotent , ladyboy "

Re: Alice considering re-recording some early 80's material

From mr.barlow: "If Alice is really serious about this he should get the fans input." This is nothing new. He has been occasionally talking about this since at least around 2006 when I heard him mention it so some fans he was talking to and I think there was a thread here about this quite recently ...

Re: Combining and editing Alice albums

Welcome 2 My Nightmare could've had "Under the Bed" between "The Nightmare Returns" and "A Runaway Train" and dropped " Ghouls Gone Wild ". While I understand the negativity towards DISCO BLOODBATH , I've never really quite got the dislike for GHOULS GONE WILD .... Unlike BLOODBATH , GHOUL's a very...

Re: special forces tour

At the glasgow gig the intro started with the helicopter sound, then the band crawled on as if they were in the jungle, they had their guns as if they were firing them into the audience. Then we heard Alice's weird vocals came over, we went crazy wondering where he was. Then the band broke into the...
