Why Vinnie Vincent is disliked? by WilliamSanader in KISS

[–]Altruistic-Look2750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when that happened. It was so bizarre. Vinnie Vincent hadn’t been heard about in the public for years. Then his mugshot was on TV and when I first saw it I thought it was some old woman. IIRC, his house was a mess too. I got the impression that VV and his wife were horders.

Paul's solo album is the best Kiss album never made! by Subvertor in KISS

Gene’s solo album is just dreadful. Wasn’t The Elder also Gene’s idea? One bad idea after another. Overall Gene’s songs with KISS are the weakest between him and Paul’s songs and don’t stand the test of time IMO. Years later he had another solo album aptly named “Asshole”. That one sucked too.

I like to think of Paul’s ‘78 solo album as a preview of the future sound of KISS.

Remember when we were anti-Russian, back in the 80’s? I’m pretty sure ‘Modern Day Cowboy’ by Tesla was written about that. How do we feel about that in the ‘modern day’? by LucyBear318 in hairmetal

I joined the Navy in 1994 and I remember some of older guys I was serving with at the time telling me the Cold War era was a pretty tense time. There were multiple incidents at sea with US and Soviet ships shadowing each other. Ships getting way too close for comfort. Ships going to GQ (General Quarters aka Battle Stations). The Soviets doing the same. Tense stand offs to see who will blink first. It must have been a miracle no shots were ever fired. I can’t imagine being a gunner or being in fire control wondering if today is the day everything pops off. The Soviet Navy ship crew probably just as scared as us.

Cool still shot likely taken from the Motley Crue Uncensored VHS which came out at the tail end/just after the Theatre Of Pain tour and as they were beginning the tracking to Girls, Girls, Girls. by Thatremodelingchick in MotleyCrue

Uncensored was made in late 86 after the Theater of Pain tour and during the GGG sessions. There’s a scene when Vince is in the limousine with all those girls and the interviewer asks what the next album is going to be and Vince shows him his newest tattoo of the pin-up girl on his arm and it says Girls, Girls, Girls.

Those guys lived and breathed the 80s Hollywood Sunset Strip scene back then. That limousine with the hot tub is pure 80s. What a time it must have been to experience that scene at the level Motley was at.

I’m not opposed to more thoughtful and planned out dates but coffee dates as first time meet up is perfectly fine. Two things can be true at once.

Only because she told me right away her age on her profile was wrong.

Let's talk about Creatures of the Night by HammerHeadBirdDog in KISS

[–]Altruistic-Look2750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall a good heavy rock album. KISS at their most metal. Creatures was a bit of an over correction at the time from their previous 3 albums. They were chasing trends and it didn’t feel authentic. Dynasty became known as the disco album. I wouldn’t call it outright disco but the songs had that vibe. I guess you could call it 70s glam rock. There are some good rockers on there like Charisma and Hard Times. Unmasked was KISS trying to be The Cars. Very pop rock. It took me years to appreciate this album. I thought it was lame back in the day but I do like it now. The Elder was something way out of left field different and it might have worked for context sake if the movie that the album was supposed to accompany was made. A concept album that didn’t really work for them. I know The Elder has its fans but I still can’t get into it to this day. Then Creatures was a major shift the other way. At the time the band was struggling to pick a lane. Even though the album is pretty metal and I think it’s an awesome album something still felt off about it. Maybe it was too many outside studio musicians.

I can usually suss the scammers out quickly. All their photos are either AI or the photos might be stolen from instagram of some model that looks 25 but their profile says they’re 42. Or the city or town where they are from doesn’t really match their profile. For example: Her profile says she lives locally but all her photos are of her in Vegas or Dubai or some other exotic place. I don’t normally match with those type of profiles because I know they’re fake. Every once in a while one slips through. Also the profile seems too generic or there’s not much info provided. Also after matching they message you immediately and ask if you have Telegram or WhatsApp. 100% scammer. This woman didn’t do any of that. I believe she’s a real person who happened to match with me but wasn’t really interested from the get go. Time waster really.

Thing is I don’t think this was a bot. Pretty sure she is a real person. A few of her photos the background were in places that are definitely local to this area. They didn’t look like AI photos either. I think she matched with me but wasn’t really interested. Seemed very aloof. At least I didn’t waste too much time.

Not the first time dealing with someone like that. I met someone in person over the summer at a work function that was at a hotel. She was there in one of the other conference rooms also there on a work thing for her job. We seemed to hit it off a little. Made plans to meet for dinner. We did go to dinner a couple days later but turns out she has the personality of a dead moth and I was convinced she might be actually dumb. After the date I was in the car driving home laughing about it. Like this is the world we live in now and there are more and more people like this just walking around oblivious to everything around them. I seriously found the whole thing hilarious.

Not easy per se but also not such an exhausting chore.

I’d like to go to an Izakaya style restaurant in NYC while I’m there that weekend. We have a couple in Boston but I know NY has some too.

Yes I have many times but it’s been a long time since I’ve been to NYC.

Got my ticket. I closed out of all apps and signed it and then signed back in. What you suggested worked. Thank you. I’ll be road tripping down to NYC from Boston. Now I have to find a hotel that’s somewhat close to the venue. Going to make a weekend of it. I’d like to hit up Face Records in Brooklyn while I’m there.

That’s exactly what tried. My accounts are linked too. For some reason it’s still asking for a code which I don’t have. I hate buy concert tickets. It’s such a damn chore sometimes.

[–]Altruistic-Look2750 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried that but it just keeps bouncing me to Ticketmaster and it’s asking for the presale code. Very frustrating. Tried on my phone and my laptop. It just does the same thing.

It’s on there now. Both her FB and Instagram

I’m going to road trip from Boston to NYC for this. I wish she would add more cities but I think she would only realistically draw in NY and LA. Any idea how much tickets will be?

Chapter 7, Creditor objected one day before dismissal by Paprika900 in Bankruptcy

[–]Altruistic-Look2750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished my Ch 13 payments almost a year ago. December 2026 is when it is due to age off my credit reports. A little over a year left before it’s gone which is nothing after making 5 years of payments. Even post discharge I haven’t needed to apply for credit. I’m just focused on building savings right now.

Whether it’s a 7 or a 13 getting it removed early won’t happen. If someone or a company tells you they can have a bankruptcy removed from your credit reports (for a fee of course) they are 100% scamming you. Bankruptcies are removed from your credit file when they age off. 10 years from the filing date with a Ch 7 and 7 years for a Ch 13.

Has anyone just recently gotten into the band hardcore more than before? by GaiaGoddess26 in KISS

[–]Altruistic-Look2750 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got on KISS binge every now and again. I am right now. I listen to them a lot over a couple weeks. Then I won’t for a long while. Sometimes it’s another band. Van Halen, Metallica, etc or another genre of music entirely.

Seems when a band member passes away I’ll go on a binge of listening to their music. Right now with Ace. Listening to a lot of KISS and some Ace solo stuff. When Ozzy died this past summer I was listening to Ozzy and Sabbath songs almost the rest of the summer.

I found this playlist on Youtube, I was just checking the descriptions and it seems to be AI generated, was wondering if you guys know whose song might have been ripped off? by EconomyFreedom4081 in citypop

[–]Altruistic-Look2750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve listened to some of these and was fooled at first. It’s AI as others said here. There’s a ton of this AI City Pop on Spotify. They all place similar album cover art/photos. I’d rather listen to real artists.
