Re: Van Halen

I know nothing of their finances, except it's generational. I would think the concept of legacy would have risen on the priority pole at some point in their decades long journey. What I can imagine, it would be a crippling decision to ascribe that task to one person. When I read your post on bios, ...

Re: Van Halen

(Snip) Curious there hasn't been a serious, researched bio by the likes of Charles Cross, Brendan Mullen, etc on EVH. There’s been several attempts by several noted authors over the years to write an authorized bio with Eddie’s cooperation. The last real attempt I know of was around 2002. The gener...

Re: Killing Joke

This might be interesting. A recording session with Jaz and Geordie of Killing Joke with Peter Hook from Joy Division in 1993. This will be released late Spring next year as a 3 song EP:

Re: Van Halen

Panda, do you have any recs for biographies on EVH? If any take his life through '15 that'd be best. If not, through '08? There's really nothing even close to being a definitive bio on Eddie or the band itself for that matter. Especially anything that covers his life from start to (near) finish. Th...

She does it at the Hospital ...

Re: The Biden Administration

John Kerry as Climate Czar, hahaha. You just can't get rid of this fucking guy. He's a political hack, and somehow he keeps getting jobs. He's turned failing up into an art form.

I guess this is part of getting back to "normal" .... bringing back in old establishment career politicians.

Re: Coronavirus

1. These CEOs have zero motivation to misrepresent the results provided by an independent body, because these same results will go to the FDA. The company does not collect the data. That's not how this works. (snip) I strongly disagree with this statement. There is literally hundreds of billions of...

Re: Coronavirus

I think most of the US is going to be in serious trouble by New Years, far moreso than at any point so far. The arc of new cases is simply out of control. There's just so many stupid, selfish people out there. And politicians are useless and government run services and general medical care are start...

Re: Perry: "I reached out to Eric" + "No more Jane's/PFP albums"

Well, here's to hoping that Summer 2021 will be great. We'll all be vaccinated and tons of bands will be playing shows. Hopefully we'll see some good JA one more time. I think 2021 is going to be a write-off as far as major concerts go. There's some bands that have made or are tentatively looking a...

Re: Ritual Rocktober LP re-release

I believe there's a new vinyl pressing of Nothing's Shocking coming out this week from Rhino. I have zero info on whether it's a new mastering or not. the previous remasters from the last decades worth of re-releases of this album haven't sounded very impressive so fingers crossed.
