  1. It sure doesn't get any easier!
  2. John 5 is a great technical player, but I can't tell you one riff he wrote. I'd rather be the "sloppy player" who wrote the iconic riffs, than the technically proficient guy who can play anything ....but can't come up with the iconic riffs. Every. Single. Time. And all you say is right about Ace. However, his solo album that he DID play on is the best of the 4 😁
  3. I have no doubt Tommy is a better copier off all things Ace than Ace at this point, but stealing all the signature look, gear & moves is weak. If Tommy and Eric were different personas, there would be no issue. Also, KI$$ cash in on that "magic" that Peter and Ace provided (Beth & Shock Me being two cases of the blatant ripoff). The difference with Motley Crue, is at least John 5 is still John 5 and not copying Mick in looks and stage persona.
  4. A saying I live by when going out socially applies here: Better to leave a little early and have people miss you and wish you stayed, then to stay too long and have people remember you for lingering too long.
  5. Oh, I know how bad based on shows from 15/20 years ago. But it is claimed that what you are hearing ARE pre-recorded vocals now ...if so, I'd hate to hear actual live ones, because pre-recorded sound AWFUL!
  6. I've always enjoyed reading musician or band biographies, and boy howdy, there is high drama in the Motley Crue camp! It just goes to show how some bands are just a brand and a business! Mick may not be able to tour, but it sounds like the band wants him out of ALL of the corporations. Cheap Trick did this to Bun E. Carlos years back and got their asses handed to them in court. I hope the same happens here. Personally, I find the allegations of pre-recorded everything to be fascinating(as it is a current trend). I wonder how bad Vince Meal would sound if he was really sing live! https://blabbermouth.net/news/mick-mars-on-his-motley-crue-bandmates-i-carried-these-bastards-for-years?fbclid=IwAR2oV3zplASeI2ESgcNqvOSQWi-1iy-Rfu4A20Ylf4d2ZShi3YmRiRxYHe8
  7. Rick is awesome! I am in Atlanta and if he holds open events, I'd definitely go.
  8. Be curious what you discovered on your machine.
  9. I've never had one BIOS update issue with Asus through the years, but oddly enough had them with Gigabyte ...which you had the opposite. So strange.
  10. When I first started building in the 90s, I treated the PC Build Engineer(yes, that was a real job back then) to lunch to help me build my first PC. He was a wiz, and he explained everything. I'm proud to say I've had boot up first time every time 30+ builds down the road. I enjoy the nuance of it, and having all the cables the way I want them. Also, very few problems over the years with Asus motherboards and Intel processors. The two AMDs I built back in the day just were bears and I sold them off.
  11. I saw that, and it was awesome. Started with HUSTLE! I've done something similar(though obviously not at that speed). Outhustled a guy to the guy to the corner, used the glass to see my guy coming down the slot and did a backhand blind to him and he put it home. Even this old squirrel got a nut occasionally(and I was NOT known as a speed or skill guy, but did have hustle and awareness) 😜
  12. Boo on your first point, but hockey is MUCH better than soccer because of hitting ...and fighting.
  13. I had a couple of drinks, but do not get drunk(I keep the plane low if you will) ....that is a novice move!
  14. I hate to see the nail in the coffin delivered by the refs, unjustly IMO. But, they came out small in the 2nd half ...can't take your foot off of the gas! Still have to go to work tomorrow, and at the end of the day, still SPORTSBALL. My life is still really blessed!
  15. Go to Apps and remove Microsoft News
  16. Performance the same here with minor annoyance at the Win11 interface/menus (which I have about just the same as Win10 at this point). Not putting on the studio box until I am absolutely certain of all the programs/drivers.
  17. I'll never argue with hockey talk, but still looking forward to tomorrow!
  18. New Jersey is split in half to the NY(north) and Philly(south) media markets. I was born and raised rooting for all things Philly(which was only 15 minutes away). I want the Eagles to win andI don't care if it is good and/or competitive if they can win the game .... a close game is stressful! 🤪
  19. Someone posted Motley Crue playing Wild Side last night. The live tempo was 107bpm compared to the studio version, which is 115bpm. I've noticed slower songs with Alice in Chains as well, and it annoys me. Does anyone else pick up on that kind of thing? If so, who have you noticed it with. At least with tuning down, there is a more practical aspect to it!
  20. I mean, hockey is in my NAME! And I'm South Jersey born and raised, GO FLYERS!!
  21. I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue. I did mean SATURDAY.
  22. It is a late game that has a longer halftime. If the Eagles win, I'm am going to be DRAGGING Monday.
  23. Best 7 minutes I can think of for a Behind the Music, a LOT of cameos!
