BUT
give something about the song, be it personal experience, thoughts, general knowledge of something about the song etc. Basically give a reason why you're listening to it or like it.

/me is listening to Tool-intolorance-11-11-99

great workout song, and this live version is crisp. One maybe 4-5 tool songs Ill have on a rotation on my mp3 when running or working out.
I'll only say this once; Poolzer made this post so that you guys could say what you're listening at the precise time you're reading this, and what the song means to ya, as he already mentioned more than once, and NOT to say stuff like "Killer Song" which only demonstrates that the person in cause knows nothing about the song meaning, or to say things like "Blind Guardian sucks", since no one asked the person in question the opinion about the mentioned band. Let's stay in topic, shall we? I hope so... :sneaky2: [] :rock:

Currently listening to the Thin Lizzy and Deep Purple show I taped on Friday the 13th in Phoenix, AZ. I'm not sure how I feel about bands that had their hey-day back in the 70's and are still out there today, in addition when only 2 or 3 guys of both bands are originals.

A friend of mine wanted me to tape it, so the ticket was free. Had a good laugh at the audience members who still think it's the 70s. I wanted to walk up to them, and say "dude, playing air guitar is no longer considered cool!"

I don't even see how they can call it Thin Lizzy without Phil Lynnott. Some bands out there are just no longer the same without that one vital member. James Hetfield, Tony Iommi, Jon Schaffer, Steve Harris, Dave Mustaine...all of these men, for the most part, are the heart and soul of their band. Without them, the band might as well not exist, because any replacement would just be that. A replacement. They'd never have the drive and soul that their predecessor had.

Such is the case of Phil Lynnott. My point? Calling this current incarnation of Thin Lizzy is a lie and a travesty.

Carlin is, quite simply, one of the funniest social commentary comedians in existance. He's one of the comics that can still manage to ellicit a laugh from me whenever I hear them.

I was thinking along those same lines watching these guys. It should've been called the "the John Sykes band who cover Thin Lizzy"

I agree....Lizzy without Lynott is like Metallica without James....just don't jive. But Sykes is a very good player....as were all of Lizzy's players. Listening to "Rage Against the Machine" - Battle of Los Angeles. I don't really care about De La Rocha's social commentary..just like the grooves and head rocking they seem to induce in me.....Maybe I should read the lyrics? Nah!

:lol:
You know the thing that always amazed me about Rage against the machine, is they would rant on and on about the system in the US. Meanwhile, they'd go home to their nice houses, driving their nice cars, and continue to live in the country they were so "disgusted with" I always thought it was a little hypocritical.

caught carlin in concert back in Nov, always know a show is going to be good when the opening joke is'Ever notice how the subject of pussy farts isnt a common conversation piece?'

2 hours of spiteful pent up political, social and environmental humor, kick ass show.

/np STP vasoline-live

I always thought it was funny that the studio version of this is as long as the intro of 'for whom the bells toll'. Song is catchy and love how it starts, makes for a good 1st song at a show.
Bleed the day.

Cky - 96 Quite Bitter Beings

Well, my cousin and I are great fans of MTv's Jackass, and this band is the band of the brother of the biggest jackass of them all, Bam Margera. I knew this song yesterday, and I love the intro. Sadly, it's very difficult to play it... Anyway, the intro kicks ass....
