Has anyone seen Prophets of Rage live yet? They're coming to London in June and I can't decide whether to go. Mostly because B-Real sucks ass.

I thought they did pretty good, I guess it depends if you want more RATM covers or a balance; I had to leave early because I was heading down to New Mexico for Black Sabbath the next day; here is the set they played at my show: www.setlist.fm/setlist/prophets-of-rage/2016/red-rocks-amphitheatre-morrison-co-3bfc5c84.html |

I think it's cute that President Trump thinks his executive order to repeal Obama's environmental policies - policies which were only declared five months ago and aren't even in force yet - is "historic". Because everyone remembers the nullification of laws which never happened, right?

"Chick drummers in Northamptonshire where you at?" - female guitarist on Facebook
All male band searches specific for male drummer - sexist
All female bands searches specifically for female drummer - completely fine. Brave, even.

:lol:
So first Trump is employing his daughter's husband as a "senior adviser", and now he's employing (unpaid) his daughter officially as an adviser/assistant? "Conflict of interest" means nothing to you people, huh?
Do you guys just see the news every day and think "for fuck's sake, what now"?

Yep that is right on I cringe each time I open up the news as it becomes more batshit insane than the last day The failed "Trumpcare" has been the funniest of them all so far |

What's the latest on the health care one? Are they abolishing Obamacare with nothing to replace it?

They undoubtedly will make another try at replacing Obamacare with their own twisted version again; this time my guess is in addition to higher fees and less coverage you have to pay for Trump's green fees whenever he goes golfing |

Why should everyone go to that one? Because it was created first? This site is way more active. You barely post on either one anyways and you're somehow the official recruiter. |

Besides, I'd much rather post on a forum that's independent than one created primarily as a marketing tool.

I've put music stuff up on there and nothing. At least people talk on here. Fonz is asking everyone here to join that forum while also asking everyone there to join this one. I've got no fuckin clue what he's trying to do. |

It is too bad that we're split between the two (and the facebook group makes three) for no real reason.

I posted the same message there and linked to this forum. I just thought it would be nice to see both of them combined. That's all. |

You're intentions were good, you just went about doing it the wrong way. You should have picked a site and tried to get everyone to come to it. Instead, you did nothing to bridge the divide by trying to get everyone to go everywhere. Also, with the way metalsetlists and Adam's page from last summer got taken down, it's nice to have another option out there in case things go south with one of the boards. |

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I enjoy the small but active community we have going here. If metalsetlists actually did come back, I don't think I'd even bother. Also, really like your new dog DisposableJustice. I'm sure Mickey is enjoying his new home  |

As always, the big bands don't bother booking good, or even relevant, support acts for UK shows because it sells well enough without them. GN'R have confirmed The Kills will for someone reason be the special guests at their London shows. Not even a rock band. And KISS will have The Dives opening all four of their UK shows. Not even a rock band.
What a colossal waste of everyone's time and money. No one will watch them unless they have to tolerate them to get a good spot for the headliners, they'll sell no merch, especially as they'll have to charge the same prices as the headliners, gain no new fans for their own, presumably inevitable, gigs in the UK later, and the headliners will shift approximately zero extra tickets as a result of adding these bands to the shows.
Honestly, in cases like this I wish they'd just not even book support acts and just open the doors an hour or two later.

I don't really visit TDG's forum only because I'm not a big fan of the layout, it feels way too cluttered vs. here. Also as pointed out, not much is going on in the music forum |

We are cyber refugees now. The sooner you accept that, the better. |

It's kind of like when people graduate from high school/college. Some will stay in touch but most just spread out and do their own thing and that group you used to hang with is never whole again. |

You think you've got it bad then you find out your friend and former apprentice has lost his job, his life and is basically living on the streets.
...And I'm worried about something at work that's ultimately not my fault and will be forgotten in a month.

Some will stay in touch but most just spread out and do their own thing and that group you used to hang with is never whole again. People come and go, even the ones you care about most. Time marches on. I had a real special group of friends that stayed intact through high school and college, a good seven years, but now they're scattered around the globe and probably never coming back. Like Heraclitus said, you never pass twice through the same stream. So enjoy as much as you can while you can. |

Nature doesn't create equality. Clearly, people aren't all equal. Why does everyone have such a hard time with this and insist it's not true?

We are not allowing Syrian refugees into the US while we bomb Syria. I don't see how these two things can be reconciled. Setting aside the issue of not allowing refugees in, which there's a legitimate argument for. But if we're adopting that position, we can't be bombing them.

Saint Vitus with Not Wino are pretty mediocre.
