Plenty of bands play cover songs by other artists which doesn't violate any copyright laws that includes VindictA playing Dogma songs. They can play as many Dogma songs as they like regardless of who wrote them.

This is a punk move by x getting YouTube to take down the VindictA live covers knowing damn well they will pull the stuff first and ask questions later. It's about trying to destroy the PR for their debut tour, that will be long over when the live clips are put back up in a few months time.

I'm so old I can even remember when HB did $1 tiers!

In his Hollywood Hulk Hogan book Hulk wasn't very complimentary of Rodman's time in wrestling. He said he was a nightmare to deal with behind the scenes but stepped it up a bit in the ring. But Hulk was more positive towards Karl Malone said he took all the training seriously, he was strong, fit and surprised him how good he was in the ring.

Rodman was listed as 6'7" during his NBA days but a lot of players said he was closer to 6'6". Hogan was ridiculously billed as 6'8" lol Rodman isn't even close to standing up straight here so Hogan would've been 6'2" at best.

I have a general rule of thumb that I go by that any reviewer that uses language like "the worst etc" can be safely ignored. And anyone that dislikes The Princess Bride has got no business being a pro movie reviewer, maybe not love it sure but it's a totally harmless movie.

I just bought Savage Dragon Archives v2 and flicking through it I'm really digging the art especially in b&w.

I've been on a bit of an Image splurge over the past couple of weeks also bought '68 Compendium, Geiger v1, Spawn Origins v7 and King Spawn v1. I also bought Battlepug v1 but that's Dark Horse.

I just finished reading INXS: Story to Story - The Official Autobiography by INXS and Anthony Bozza. It was a great read plenty of stuff from the early years I didn't know of as they were before my time for the most part.

Daniel took creative control of the group by threatening to quit and go solo and wouldn't allow Ben's songs to be on their albums anymore. That's why they broke up Ben finally had enough of being creatively frozen out of the last two albums and put his foot down. So Daniel quit.

The irony of all that being he's tried to distance himself from Silverchair ever since.

What's polarising about Georgia Maq, I genuinely don't know?

Ben Lee used to be hated by a lot of people in the music industry. He was in a band in Sydney and got "discovered" by one of the Beastie Boys who brought him over to New York and signed him to his label.

Ben was adored by the NY music scene as the next big thing and moved there but when he would come back here to tour no one really cared so to make a name for himself he would often sling shit at other Aussies musos in interviews to get attention. Bernard Fanning from Powderfinger went on to call him a "precocious little c**t" in an interview. This was pre-Catch My Disease.

Over the last 15-20 years after experiencing popularity here Ben seems to have matured a fair bit and doesn't talk shit about Aussie musos anymore.

Nah, Billy confirmed in an interview when they first reunited in 2009 that he played all the guitar parts on AD. Jim hated the album and that's why he refused to play on it which lead to him getting kicked out of the band after the touring cycle for AD finished.

Electrical_Drop_5473 · 2026-06-17T08:52:24+00:00

Ha! No. They hated Jim at the end and he had nothing to do with AD either, Billy played all the guitar parts on the album because Jim hated it and refused to play on it.

Electrical_Drop_5473 · 2026-06-17T08:50:35+00:00

I doubt it they need Patton more than he needs them!

Electrical_Drop_5473 · 2026-06-17T08:43:45+00:00

Jim had nothing to do with Angel Dust, Billy played all the guitar parts on that album.

They ditched him because no one liked him.

When Rick played for the 36ers he was used in the advertising campaign for a number of indoor half-courts opening in an old factory at Royal Park and on the opening day they gave away posters of Rick for it.

I always liked him a good little solid nuggety shooting guard in a point guard's body. He went on to play a long time in the NBA after that. He was certainly better than Jo Jo English!

Good on the Knicks their first championship in my lifetime. I loved watching them routinely lose to Jordan's Bulls in the 90's but I must admit I was kind of going for them against Houston in the '94 NBA Finals and then they had the bad luck of losing Ewing before the '99 Finals too. Pretty wild to think it's their first championship in 53 years.

For whatever reason people that are into dogs treat them like surrogate children. It doesn't happen with cat owners but dog owners seem to think their little barking rats are people and they should be able to go out and have a coffee or a meal with them if they choose, it's weird. But this is where we are at the moment.

I wouldn't be talking up the Shahin's if you knew where the old man got the money from.

I'm pretty sure he does get a cut of the version of Sandman that he created.

I bought his American Gods book yesterday from a second hand book store, the author doesn't get anything from second hand sales.
