Fondler errrr... fan of all Nav's avatars
Also, the one that is different from yours is a TOPLOADER, the regular release is a sideloader. These were quickly off the market for some reason but to me, it's a sleeper and can be had for pretty cheap considering the rarity

I was just listening to lies on vinyl yesterday and wow it's a great recording. Great seperation. Sonically a solid lp. So much better than cd. It almost seemed like a diff mix. But it was amazing. Patience I've never heard like that before yesterday!! And I've had the lp since it came out lmao

Pretty sure that's been re-released on 180g vinyl. Have you tried it, or is that the one you are referring to?

No this is the old school press. I've had it for years but first time I've played it since I've got my system pretty nice. I always had best buy stuff. The stuff I have now is no comparison.

Queensryche when they were the opening act for Heaven and Hell. What a joke they have become. Heaven and Hell was great, awesome to see Ronnie one last time before he died. Even they were upstaged by the middle act...

Alice Cooper and WHAT A FVCKING SHOW

When Heaven and Hell came on, they could not get the audience to get into it. Admittingly, Alice Cooper is a tough act to follow anytime. Heaven and Hell did not even do an encore

I saw this show and had meet and greets will Alice and the boys. His band in that period was unstoppable. Bets versions played of his tunes ever.

We were getting drunk and eating pizza and missed Queensryche. Prolly for the best as last I saw them was on the Empire tour with Suicidal opening. Not sure post Empire could top it (and I consider that their last and weekest album)

Corrosion of conformity opened that megadeth show and blew them away!! Pepper sounded great on vocals. Dave didn't even sound like the same person. The bob Chris thing was a train wreck from the word go lol. Never heard space before in a acoustic set but leave it to bob to figure out a way lmfao

Megadeth has SUCKED since Peace Sells was out. Everthing post '87 for them is trash. Pretty much like everything post '88 for Metallica (one of two good tunes on the black album. Saw that tour)

Last time I saw Queensryche was when they opened for Metallica back in '89 or sometime around there. IUC Pavillion in Chicago.

I had to give this some thought...

He was not Bruce Dickenson that was the problem. I liked him with Wolfsbane, too bad that band was a casualty. He is a great singer but it's sort of like how would Zeppelin be without Plant but someone who mimicked well? Halford vs Ripper, no contest. Brian Johnson not in AC/DC???? Who would listen? Who would care? The only band that I see a singer stepping in and being successful is Journey, that guy is GOOD (whatever his name is LOL see what I mean?)


The three Maiden albums he did with Maiden did not sell great, the fans spoke and when Dickenson came back, Maiden immediately took off where they left off when he left
Bruce is the Man! Paul did a few great albums as well but everything clicked when Bruce came on board. And you are correct, Had 7th row center at the Brave New World tour and it was incredible. Might have been better than the last time I saw them before that on the Somewhere In Time tour. Halford, and Queensryche opened the show and both were very good.


There is no JP with our Rob (and I'd say KK and Glenn as well) he's been there since before '74.....

I think Brian Johnson is pretty much a hack. He had a few good albums but his writing innuendo is garbage compared to Bon. Johnson has sounded extremely constipated, like he's working one out, for decades now......
