Upcoming shows?

[bgart13]

I haven't been able to find any recordings of shows post B$B. Have you heard any, Mark?

[Mark Tolch]

Thank you! I can sort of understand the fans who are all about Alice himself and likely dig metal, but to think the original band wasn't special?? Oy vey...

I can find stuff to appreciate about his later years, and understand that Pretties For You and even Easy Action might not be for everyone. But Love It To Death? Killer? School's Out? Billion Dollar Babies? Muscle of Love???? Tons of classics there. And the musicianship was top-notch there. I've seen and heard a bunch of shows from that era in boot form, and with the exception of Buxton's issues later on, that band was TIGHT.

[Mark Tolch]

That's not a bad deal at all. Sure you won't be disappointed. But let us know, regardless.

Got my tix for Alice. Splurged for the mid-range ones nearer the stage, $62 per ticket including the various fees.

I'm learning not to discuss my preference for old Alive VS modern Alice in a FB group. Seems the "kids" think the old band were poor musicians and put on lame shows. Oy vey...

Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, even when they're horribly, horribly incorrect.

I'm old and crabby. I love seats.

[bgart13]

Seems weird to go to a rock'n'roll show with seats.

[Mark Tolch]

Turbonegro are coming back to Toronto. Holy fuckin shit.

[Mark Tolch]

Haha, yeah. The setlist at the bottom was what I went to the review for, but then I started reading it....and those tombstones. Oh, boy.

[bgart13]

Oh yeah! I remember that review! That medley of the Hollywood Vampires classic rock junk sounds atrocious. I know Alice really is a pop act and he can do whatever he wants, but c'mon -- he can do better than that.

Then again, I see his posts for the radio show... Maybe he can't.

[Mark Tolch]

Actually, here....

Read all about it. It's certainly better than my memory.

[Mark Tolch]

Yeah, they stumbled a few times, and I hated the covers....which he expanded into that Hollywood Vampires thing...and I agree with you on that...but he largely played the original group material with a few songs from later, and very few new songs.

[bgart13]

Almost a year, but you finally replied. Good job! :D

Re: Hollywood Vampires, I really am not interested in seeing them -- unless he drags Dennis, Neal or Michael along.

And thanks for the AC info. I guess I'd be going only for him anyways, so as long as the band plays the stuff well enough, I should be happy.
