Slashdot Mirror

I totally agree with your assessment. Just wanted to add some perspective and maybe a more joyful outlook on what is to come.

Yeah, if slashdot had a "+1, Cynical" rating my karma would be through the stratosphere. The only radio I listen to nowadays is AM news & weather. Most mainstream music isn't my cup of tea although there's a good university station here that plays some neat bands.

In my original post I mentioned etunes.com. I meant emusic.com, I've found a lot of really decent smaller bands there I would never have heard of had I gone to the standard CD mall-store or listened to the mainstream radio. Mind you, my favourite band is Motorhead so my observations on art and music should be taken with a grain of salt ;)

You don't need Phish, you need MOTORHEAD, the greatest band to ever walk the planet. Their new disc INFERNO just POUNDS YOUR BRAIN INTO MUSH!@!!!!!!!111111oneonetwotwo

subjected to ultra-loud 173 db sound

When I see Motorhead live I don't get cold. Why is that?

Motorhead's classic tune "Ace of Spades"

Oh yeah, like, No Remorse is a Motorhead album. I totally forgot to say that.

Oh man.. that room with Motorhead's Boneshaker DVD and some Fort Garry Dark Ale.

All that'd be left are greasy, bloody smudges.

I was afraid that it was going to be "Michael Jackson: Garage Days (Finally) Visited", but you knew when JB mentioned Motorhead that no, this movie has rock cred.
But please, no sequels.
And what's with the 500 errors?

Radio sucks, at least in my city. No Motorhead, no Slayer, no Libido Airbag, etc etc. Just hip hop lameness and dance crap. Hence my MP3 player :)

Blackhearted to the bone,
Older than the Rolling Stones,
Been to heaven, been to hell,
Bought the farm, and I won't sell...
------->I'm So Bad (Baby, I Don't Care)

That must be why I see ghosts while listening to the mighty Motorhead.

Maybe a moderation system is in order?

As long as they have a +1 Motorhead option you can count me in!

There even was a Motörhead Amiga game, a typical scroller beat-em-up iirc.

..every time I crank up some Motorhead I'd be picking my display up from the floor.

For instance, can you imagine U2 without Brian Eno? or a Garbage record without Butch Vig using every possible studio trick? Ditto for Nine Inch Nails...

Bah to those nancy-boy bands.. Motorhead can do it in a day and still have time left for Lemmy to suck back a facefull at the pub..
