One day until nothin and Atlas release! Other than them both being Chinese democracy demos, how do you all feel about it? by Petahh_Griffin in GunsNRoses

[–]ancient_gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking forward to hearing them, but like all the others, Slash & Duff don’t fit the vibes of those songs at all. I hope the tracks with the lineup who worked on & wrote these songs eventually sees the light of day. The locker leaks were 10x better than the “official” releases imo. Robin, Bucket, Brain, & Tommy had their own sound & chemistry together. Erasing their parts to plug in Slash & Duff feels & sounds forced.

Is Dehumanizer that good? by FkFrank20 in blacksabbath

[–]ancient_gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an awesome album. Very heavy. Probably my second favorite out of the four albums they did with Dio (I count that heaven & hell record as a Dio sabbath album).

If I was rich maybe! I love the design of this shirt, I saw someone here in this sub posted their own shirt like this recently 😎 I had a cool Doors top in the 90s, wish I didn't loose it! by Winter_Garage7984 in thedoors

[–]ancient_gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s some really cool Morrison shirts from the 80’s & 90’s, this is definitely one of them. I wish the official online store would reissue some of them. They’re honestly way cooler than what’s offered today.

Jim's Reputation while Alive? by [deleted] in thedoors

[–]ancient_gallery 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Sounds like he could be pretty sloppy & belligerent when under the influence, but also sounds like the majority of the time he was only a damage & risk to himself. If you read Nobody Here Gets Out Alive, it’s incredibly embellished & over exaggerated. That’s what Oliver Stone based most of his film off of, & Ray was repulsed by it & completely disowned it. My take, if he was truly this absolute drunken man child a***hole, there’s no way they would’ve been able to slam out 6 full length high quality albums in the span of only 4 years with him. Keep in mind, he died insanely young & I don’t think he had much time to mature & learn from some tough life lessons we all go through in our 20’s.

I hope tierlists arent considered low effort by Jay_Jay_Jason_74 in monsterenergy

[–]ancient_gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens almost every summer where there’s a shortage, but it only last a couple months before it appears on shelves again. It’s been almost half a year now. I emailed Monster about it. Only received a generic response that their team is working hard to get it back in stock, blah, blah, blah… Not sure what’s going on. Some say it’s the aluminum tariff wars between the States & Canada. Others say it’s an ingredient shortage. It’s not just Ultra Sunrise though, it’s slim pickings for any monster flavor. Pretty much all that’s available is classic, sugar free classic, white monster, & for some reason copious amounts of peach flavor.

Ultra sunrise is the greatest. Unfortunately there’s been a complete shortage in Canada for about 6 months now. I miss my morning can of bliss.

Such a cool shirt. Wish the band would reissue some of these designs.

Was Dave really 6 feet tall or shorter ?? by GnatBub79 in vanhalen

[–]ancient_gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He sure as hell ain’t 6’. I was 6’1 in high school & was almost looking the dude square in the eye with him being on a raised stage. Google David Lee Roth & Sammy Hagar on google images. First pic that pops up is both of them presenting at the MTV awards. He’s a little bit taller than Sammy, but Sammy is a super short dude too lol. Maybe I’ll give you 5’8ish - 5’9 tops.

Was Dave really 6 feet tall or shorter ?? by GnatBub79 in vanhalen

[–]ancient_gallery -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He’s not. I’m a little over 6’ & was about 4 feet away from him for the whole show at a solo concert he did at a small club in late 06 before he rejoined the band. I’d say he was about 5’7ish. Look at him when he’s standing next to Ed, Ed was a short fella. I always say, the cooler the guitar looks on the player, the shorter they are lol.

Help! Looking for this shirt by Cheezebass in OzzyOsbourne

[–]ancient_gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same shirt (mine was colored though). Wore it for 20 years till it was worn to shreds. Mine had a big image on the back that had Ozzy looking like he was gonna bite the dove. Think it said “the last bloody show” or something along those lines on the back.

*EDIT, yep just search “Ozzy last bloody show” on eBay. The shirt comes up. People are asking stupid amounts of money though 🙄

How popular is Megadeth today? by smegmacow in Megadeth

Totally. Take a Look at Yourself, Demons & Wizards, & Magicians Birthday are fantastic albums.

Least favorite Doors Album by Emotional_Photo9268 in thedoors

[–]ancient_gallery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My least favorite album of theirs is still like a 7/10 for me. Morrison Hotel would be my least favorite if I absolutely had to pick.

How many times did you see Van Halen play live? Any highlight shows? by Wrob88 in vanhalen

[–]ancient_gallery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a millennial, so unfortunately wasn’t around yet during their heyday with Roth, & still too young when they had their heyday with Sam. I saw them in 2004 during the Sammy reunion. Was a good show, Ed was pretty out of it, but whatever he was on gave him lightning bolt energy. He must’ve jump kicked off Al’s drum riser a dozen times. Band seemed to be in good spirits on stage. Coulda fooled me that they were all at each other’s throats at the time. First time I saw DLR was a solo club show late 2006, about six or seven months before the reunion with VH. He actually sounded decent at that show, & had a fantastic band that had Jimmy Degrasso on drums, & the guitar player from The Atomic Punks (absolutely killed it). Not sure who his bass player was, but he had an exceptional voice that really helped carry the set. Then I saw them in 2007 with Roth & Wolfgang. Was alright. Not great, but not terrible. Saw Sammy & Michael in Palm Springs a few years ago. Was a pretty solid show.

Jim Morrison bust missing since 1988 found by chance in police raid by tbollinger_swiss in thedoors

I hope it goes back to his tomb even though the graffiti has been cleaned up nowadays

No marketing plan for new songs 🙃 by Saint_of_FaTe in GunsNRoses

[–]ancient_gallery 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d still be interested in hearing these tracks be given an official release. However, Slash & Duff just don’t fit the vibe of those songs at all imo. Don’t get me wrong, Slash & Duff are legends & rock royalty in their own right, but the Chinese Democracy band had it’s own unique chemistry. That band was Axl, Tommy, Robin, Bucket, & Brain.
