I like that one.
Also, almost anything by Muse.

Van Halen made $20m last year
how?
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:45, Reply)

They get royalties every time Back to the Future is on somewhere in the world.

Are you confusing Van Halen with Huey Lewis and the News?

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:48, Reply)

Nope, that bit where Marty says he's Darth Vader?
The cassette in his Walkman is Van Halen.

Impressive geekery there
Take some points, a viable alternative to coitus
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:52, Reply)

It's not that impressive
the tape says 'EDWARD VAN HALEN' on it in large writing. The tune is 'Eruption' if you care, and even if you don't.

That is more impressive geekery than a display of the simple ability to read.

i like Van Halen,
I like that David Lee Roth is an enemy to other members of other bands that I like.

I liked their first 3 or four LPs and whilst he is responsible for a lot of other people playing terrible widdly guitar
you cannot deny the dexterity of young Eddie.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:58, Reply)

I didn't know Stunned played guitar.

( Kroney, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:59, Reply)

actual and sustained LOL here

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:59, Reply)

He is a great guitarist in my opinion,
and his brother was alex was a pretty ood little beater.
( Windy Pig I'm naturally quite suspicious about the moon., Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:14, Reply)

Yeah? YEAH?
Well at least when I was hanging around outside hotels like a vagrant, I didn't mistake a wagon full of council estate slags on a hen do saying "ugh, look at that smelly tramp" for "oh my god he's gorgeous!" and then have my mate piss on me.

YEAH I WENT THERE

You want some real Back to the Future/Guitar geekery
The guitar that Marty plays at the dance is a Gibson ES-345, which wasn't introduced until 1958. The pickups in the guitar wouldn't have been invented until 1957.

We're all really losers on here.

Yes, there are no winners here

( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:13, Reply)

There is only Monty, and those desperate enough for companionship that they talk to him.

(Bazongaloid, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:15, Reply)

I like this.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:12, Reply)

I suspect it was because the 'joke' was that it was Chuck Berry's cousin in the band.
And Berry is associated with ES-335s & 345s.
They should have used a ES-350T

/Further geekery

Well, I don't know about anybody else, but I'm hard.

I've never found tangles more attractive than I do right now.

YES!

I got informed by Dozer that liking No One Knows is incorrect.
Just passing the wisdom on, here.
( Kroney, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:43, Reply)

Ironically, No One Knows is the QOTSA song that everyone knows
and once a song is appreciated by more then seven people it falls of Dozer's COOLDAR
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:45, Reply)

Songs for the deaf and rated R are their best albums

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:46, Reply)

Songs For The Deaf is excellent

(Reverend Fister "a disciplined fuckwit", Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:56, Reply)

Lullabies to Paralyse is underrated, there are some great tracks on it.

(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:21, Reply)

are you sure?
I like that song, and that album, though I personally don't think it's their best song. I really like QOTSA, but not Era Vulgaris, on account of it being 'not very good'.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:20, Reply)

Altalt: some of it is terrible - the more organised and less self-indulgent stuff can be excellent

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:53, Reply)

^^ THIS ^^

( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 15:58, Reply)

Some of the free, less-organised stuff can be excellent too.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:16, Reply)

Wait, what do you mean "all jazz"?
That is just a ridiculous thing to say.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:09, Reply)

It was a bit of a sweeping statement to make

( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:11, Reply)

Joe Williams feat. The Jazz Orchestra's "Get Out of My Life" for example
or Repeat After Me by the Three Sounds, I could listen to all day fucking long.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:12, Reply)

If he'd said "All Britpop" he'd have been bang on though

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:15, Reply)

This is, at least, a narrower genre.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:16, Reply)

Yes
and a shitter one
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:21, Reply)

I have disliked all the jazz I have ever heard.

( Kroney, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:16, Reply)

Even Acidjazz?

( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:17, Reply)

I don't know if I've heard any of that.
But assuming it is actually a sub-genre of jazz and not merely an ironolol name for an entirely different genre, then I am willing to bet I'll hate it.
( Kroney, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:18, Reply)

Try Donald Byrd's
"Places and spaces" album

This is not Acid jazz
( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:25, Reply)

I only have Slow Drag, which is more hard bop.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:28, Reply)

You like Donald Bryd?
Nice one
( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:31, Reply)

Common ground, right here Harters.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:31, Reply)

Fuck me, well I never

( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:32, Reply)

I'm scared.

I'll metion something about liking Bix Beiderbecke
so you can snub my musical taste
( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:36, Reply)

I also like Bix Beiderbecke.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:37, Reply)

FUCK
best we change the subject then
( hartley hare Just some prick who thinks it doesn't apply to him, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:38, Reply)

It was a shit sub-genre from the mid-nineties.
You're missing nothing there.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:25, Reply)

I can't help thinking that this is a failing on your part.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 26 Feb 2013, 16:21, Reply)

Then you'd be wrong.
