It IS a Rhino compilation, the same folks who put together that wonderful "Left of the Dial: Music That Mattered From The Decade That Didn't" comp with many of the bands from 80s college radio and featured on MTV's Postmodern and 120 Minutes back in the day. Rhino is a step above many of t...

I was replying to a completely different post. Sorry about that!

Bauleichenwagen, surely? :innocent: I'd a few pints of that the other week - I think . Vicious stuff. I almost noted that, except in light of the recent tour, at least TSOM site has that update. But I'm sick of looking at that darn "Made glorious summer..." post that goes back at least to...

I don't think Von is quite the type to do a "Page/Plant" on stuff. It's not that serious I guess, and he did it only once after all. Led Zep made a living out of it. Still... It is a cover in my book. Law's for lawyers (today's words of wisdom ;D ) and I'm not one of them, not interested....

Here's how I break it down: From the angle of pure enjoyment, Floodland era. I'm too young (32 now, so I would have been about 13 or 14 when I was mostly unaware of any underground music) to have been a fan at the time, but I like it in retrospect. I don't think it is by any means Andrew's best stuf...

Oh and welcome to HL by the way. [/quote]

Thanks for the welcome. It looks like a fun forum. I love the "von" emoticon. There should be one for each era (long hair, short hair, bleached etc.).

Good rejoinder CR and there aren't many T-O-N fans around here. I think you will find this place a real tonic, I tried and gave up on Carrie's T-O-N forum, it was too cliquey and American (ie. NY) based. Welome to a kinder, better land! James :D Not familiar with that forum. By the way, is Type O s...

Perhaps I'm sometimes too hard on them. I'll always have a place for them I guess. I didn't mean to rub any Type O fans the wrong way. I was always just waiting for that great dark rock masterpiece, but the closest they ever came was Bloody Kisses in my opinion. I can certainly take a joke, but it w...

Regrets: Christian Death in '94 (Valor era)...I never really ever got to like them much and never understood what the hype was about, but I respect that Rozz William's tenure was at least what is considered their essential stuff. I was just getting into that sort of music, whatever that sort of musi...

What are my chances of finding soundboard quality recordings (from any recent tour 2000-2006) of newer songs, especially "Crash and Burn" and "Summer"? I've got that mp3 of "...Suzanne" from the official website, but I would love to hear a decent quality version of the ...

The Lost Boys theme, "Cry Little Sister" is Gerard McMann. I'm not sure why, but that is a common misconception that it was a Sisters song. Just so you know, Doktor Avalanche is a "drum machine" which is really probably more of a sequencer at this point. It plays the drums, bass ...

The crowd went wild after the first song. I had my doubts about this crowd: it was about 1/4 fully goth, with makeup and crushed velvet and the works, about 1/4 long-haired rock and roll fans, and about 1/2 normal people like myself. But they were very tame during The Warlocks. Now they livened up ...
