Re: Earthquakes
The funny thing is, today's the annual "California Shakeout" which is a general population readiness drill for earthquake safety.

Re: Songs Off TGEA You Like Better Than The Older Material?
Old material? Like pre-Strays? There's absolutely nothing from TGEA that comes close to trumping anything off the 3 original albums imo. Best I can come up with is comparing my least-favorite pre-Strays throwaway track "So What" with my favorite track off TGEA which is "Underground." And that's a re...

Re: I'm about to graduate college...any advice?
Network. The more professional contacts you make and have, the better your chances. Get a profile established on LinkedIn.com. If you can, do intern or volunteer work for a legal firm (as I assume you're going into law in some fashion?) in any capacity just to have something career-related for your ...

Re: Lyrics and liner notes for TGEA (scans)
These lyrics are so much better than Strays it's not even funny. Underground alone gives it that distinction. Strays had no message. It was Perry newly married, newly a dedicated father, a few years sober with nothing to talk about. At least on this album he's painting pictures of "broken people" a...

Re: Estimated first week sales for The Great Escape Artist
The fellas should come out with a tour CD. Something pretty sweet...not in a jewel case. Something you want to put on your mantle. Sell it relatively cheap to encourage buyers. These things are usually EP length. This is where those instrumental tracks should go. Dave solo record?* Who was paying f...

i really think downloads should be free. if people like yr shit they'll buy a deluxe CD or vinyl or shirt or go to a show. it's like a sample, where you win some goodwill.

Re: Estimated first week sales for The Great Escape Artist
i'm guessing around 25k can anyone make a good argument to me that streaming the record before it comes out helps sales? i just don't understand bands doing this. Yeah, I'm not convinced streaming an entire new album ahead of it's release date is a smart move. That was originally the purpose of a s...

Re: Lyrics and liner notes for TGEA (scans)
dave's bad place and freaky new tattoos and crying during recording were cause of pot and beer? No, Dave was definitely using again. But isn't Perry clean these days? And I'm sure Stephen pretty much always was. I thought we were talking about writing lyrics (Perry), not the actual music (Dave)...?...

I love old Stones (Exile, Sticky Fingers, Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed, etc)...but Mick Jagger doesn't even come close to Jim Morrison.

Re: My TGEA review (of sorts)
A friend of mine who I haven't talked to in ages wrote on my Facebook wall today and asked me "What do you think of the new Jane's album?". I didn't think too much about this; just kind of a stream of consciousness thing. Here's my response (for anyone who cares): Like the last one, I don't really ...

Re: The Stone Roses
I liked some of what the Stones Roses put out, and would probably see them if they played LA under the right circumstances. Someone on another board said the "Second Coming" album is basically just an overproduced stroll through The Cult's "Electric" album without the furry hat. This is pretty funny...

Axl Rose Regardless of what he's turned into, the guy wailed more than Perry, was more active onstage than Perry, and played (and still plays) shows that are twice as long. Axl was pretty impressive the first few GnR shows I saw through the early phase of the AFD tour, but I always got the impressi...
