Glad you are giving some love to Wishbone Ash. Argus is a great album with the songs âWarriorâ and âTime Wasâ among others. It also has one of the greatest gatefold album covers ever made.
Another manic flute playing front man (Thijs van Leer) who had a pretty decent guitarist (Jan Akkerman) in the band:
Too bad TS&E didnât book Rammstein for BofA during the latterâs recent US stadium tour.
clt says book them at haltron!
The explosive devices, flamethrowers and giant foam-spewing dildos that give their shows a legendary reputationâŚ
I have never seen them in person, but that would be a crazy one fo sho

How can the track that changed the course of modern music, more than anything since Elvis, not be #1?
Saw Thorogood at Ziggys in WS in the 80âs on his 48 states in 50 days in a taxi tour. He had his full arena set up inside Ziggys. It was crazy loud and awesome. Thete were a ton of bikers there and my dumb ass friend wore a pink Izod with the collar popped to piss them off. Coulda died in about 20 different ways but carried on. In Thorogoods bar shows he would always turn his guitar over and go by the front row and tap you on the head like he was knighting you into the round table. So funny to see people fight to get to the front to stick their neck out to get tapped then their reaction later like they just scored in the super bowl. Good times were had by all.
Kansas 2.0 lineup - Steve Walsh successor John Elefante on lead vocals + keyboards. Twin guitars of Rich Williams (Dean Cadillac) and Kerry Livgren (Gibson ES-335 + keyboards).
âPut me on the phone with Prince,â said television and live event producer Don Mischer, rallying his production team later that stormy morning.
âNow, I want you know that itâs raining,â Mischer told Prince on the phone.
âYes, itâs raining,â answered the performer.
âAnd are you okay?â Mischer wanted to know.
The Purple One, the artist formerly and forever to be known as Prince, had only one question:
âCan you make it rain harder?â
It wonât let me embed, so you have to watch on YouTube. I watch this at least once each year. I get tears
Old Ziggys. I remember first seeing G Love and Special Sauce there I like 1993-1994. Great show. The music of my youth was is awesome
The Philly special. One of my favorite bands all time and favorite drummers
Pretty sure thatâs the first time Iâve ever seen original Rush drummer John Rutsey in concert footage.
BTW, I have been to St. Catharines - a very, very long time ago!
