About the "Alice-N-Chains" part...I live here in Bremerton, WA and they used to frequent the old "Natasha's" that has seen the likes of G.B.H., The Melvins, C.O.C, The Accused, Destruction, M.O.D., D.R.I., Kreator, and Foghat of all people!!! But when I used to cruise around town finding shit to do about 10-15 years ago when all of this was going on..."Alice in Chains" was a big (hair) attraction/joke to see...and they played "a lot" over here before they were big (hair) believe me!!!

Got a Judas Priest boot, from a gig of theirs on the Milwaukee Summerfest, last July 7th. They came here last year (September 7th), so I wanted to check out how their gig is nowadays, and I found some differences: more "Demolition" tunes (Bloodsuckers, One On One, Hell is Home, and no Machine Man, unfortunately), and some surprises, Devil's Child (!), Exciter (!!) and... Turbo Lover (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). The latter is not a good song to play live, to say the least. The rest is the usual quality Priest show.

quote: Originally posted by Nuclear Vampire: Hey Slaytanic,I got that Priest boot too and I agree about Turbo Lover. It sucks live. It has the potential to be a real rocker live, but it sounds kind of forced and rushed. Bloodsuckers and Hell Is Home sound great though. Exciter is amazing. Painkiller by Ripper has always disappointed me. He just cvan't hit those notes. Mind you, Rob probably can't either.
You're absolutely right, Turbo Lover sounds totally rushed on this boot. They could have done an entire new version, but, instead, they opted for removing all the effects that gave the song its uniqueness. On the other hand, I loved the way Ripper sang on Devil's Child. And Rob can, yes, hit the high notes on Painkiller, perfectly. Or could, as he did it when Priest performed at Rock In Rio 2.

El Indio, gettin' into some Hall and Oats! Heh heh. I had the opportunity absorb a good portion of the Hall & Oats discography on vinyl a few years ago when my sister unloaded all her vinyl... alas, I must admit that I passed on the offer and took her Van Halen & Talking Heads records instead. Recent purchases... Sorry, no more Judas Priest for me guys... - Flying Saucer Attack: Roy Montgomery ep - Acumen Nation: The Fifth Column (Good return to their more electonic tinged industrial roots!) - Neurosis: Enemy Of The Sun (Love the album, but still think they're a boring live act.) - Nailbomb: Point Blank (had a copy, but bought the original... a good enough album, but in hindsight I can see Max already trying to get on the bandwagon 1994= Revolting Cocks, Lard, 1000 Homo DJs, Pailhead... I know he was really into this shit at the time and this record very much echos that fact.) - The Fantomas Melvins Big Band: Millenium Monsterwork (A fuckin' hell this cd is great! Both bands, together on stage pounding out an excellent mix of songs and warping the shit out of each others music! Dale Crover & Dave Lombardo... a couple of my absolute favorite drummers and shredding!!!) - Revolting Cocks: You Goddamned Son Of A Bitch! (My wife was thinning out a box of her old cds that she never listens to anymore and came accross this, which I promply inserted into my collection. All other rejected discs I either already had or didn't want... but she gave them all to me to trade in for more cds! Married life pleases me! ) Trying to save my money up for the month end Seattle record convention! Can't wait to dig through tons of boxes of records and cds alongside some of the NW's most stinky citizens... record collectors.
