  1. If you like Hot Rats you should check out Waka Jawaka & The Grand Wazoo (these 3 often get grouped together). When Zappa broke his neck in the early 70s and was in a wheelchair he made these 2 albums with a Big Band & the other with a Big jazz band. If you like Zappa & can appreciate Miles Davis' Bitches Brew and other far out Jazz rock fusion these will be up your alley. The Zappa family trust just released a double live show of these arrangements called "Wazoo" which I am anxiously awaiting in the mail (along with a T-shirt featuring the cover to Overnite Sensation).

    Mr. Bungle!

    I found their early albums interesting but kind of hard to listen to more than say once a year. Very creative and funny though. I haven't heard anything new from them in a long time.
  3. You get a punch in the face, they confiscate your glowsticks (and drugs) and throw you out of the bar. The acoustics sound pretty good there though.
  4. I think the beard is an indicator that Dave's going on Ratdog tour.
  5. You're probably right. I've just been noticing a lot of Wii games on piratebay lately. I was hoping you didn't need a chip to play them.
  6. Plus Zeppelin needs an opener....
  7. Agreed, but if Oprah gets behind Tina's comeback it will be huge. It may not work, but I bet some executive somewhere is already planning it. Tina Turner's Life after Death World Tour 2008. At very least I expect a single.
  8. I really don't know if she even makes albums anymore but I see a trend here; Her career starts out as Ike & Tina. They break up & she has a very successful solo career....which fizzles out in the 80s. She makes a movie about what a jerk Ike was to jump start her career again....eventually her career fizzles out again. Now that he's dead I expect a new album in 2008 about her relief at his passing or something like that. She will be a huge star again in the new year.
  9. I wonder now that Ike's gone if Tina Turner will lose the angst she's displayed on her last few albums.
  10. I have a live Wings DVD: Rockshow which kicks a lot of ass. I believe it is from 1976 or so and I would highly recommend it. I also have Venus & Mars & Wings at the Speed of Sound on LP (yes Vinyl) so do I still get a punch in the mouth Hux?
  11. Thanks KK Maybe the full length video will bring Del out of retirement.
  12. We should recreate that moment over the holidays with a new grocery cart of beers.
  13. Shawnald not only walked to the Beer store and Shopper's drug mart in bare feet quite regularly, he also got served. I can remember him getting kicked out of bars for not having shoes, but he always got served at the beerstore.
  14. I called them a couple months ago to ask why my bill was $10.00 higher. They told me the reason was that I had an old internet package and they would switch me to the new package and it would be cheaper. When the new bill came the bill was $20.00 higher & I called again & they said I had switched services part way through the month so the bill was higher as I was paying a month & a half of services on the new plan. When the next bill came there was an extra $30.00 charge because I had exceeded the bandwidth allotted to me (I had an unlimited plan before so I had never exceeded any limits...what they didn't tell me was that they no longer offered an Unlimited plan and the new plan they switched had bandwidth capped). So I called again as now I'm getting $146.00 phone bills every month (just phone and internet) and I don't even use long distance. They put me into a new "Unlimited" plan for $25.00 a month but gave me $30.00 off for the next 6 months. Considering they no longer have Unlimited usage I am curious to see what my future bills will be but I have 6 months to find a new provider. After all this nonsense (and I'm already furious with Bell) I find out on this board that the reason my bit-torents are so slow is the Throttling issue. When I called in to ask why the torrents were so slow they rebooted my server a few times & made me install upgraded software etc. None of the 5 or 6 technicians and managers I spoke with mentioned the Bandwidth Throttling.
  15. The founder of a California pot-lacing food factory was arrested on drug charges for conspiring to manufacture and distribute marijuana. He originally said he made his products for medical marijuana clubs in the state. The founder and three of his employees allegedly produced such marijuana-laced products as cookies, barbecue sauce, honey and soda. During an investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration seized pot-laced candy bars called Buddafingas and Stoners, which were wrapped in packages similar to Butterfingers and Snickers.

  16. Sorry, I thought the title of this thread said Bobby Heenan Experience.
  17. I bet Zeppelin needs an opening act........
  18. I'd love a copy of that video. Maybe we could sell it to the CBC as a documentary on how Canadians live.
  19. Actually, I meant to say; I wonder if he'll be inspired to re-unite Wings.
  20. I wonder if he'll be inspired to re-unite the Beatles.
  21. Hell.. so do I! 10am I think it was... Funny, that's the image I had in my head when I made that post.
