Guest guest Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hi peter, 44 is not too old to dance! I went to a metallica concert once in long island,(nassau coloseum or something) and it was the weirdest one I had ever been to. everybody was sitting properly in their chair. no mosh pit no nothing. I felt like I was at church. I have gone on mosh pits but the guys are too rough. one time a guy held out his hand and told me to put my foot in his hand. I said why? he said just do it. next thing I know I was crowd surfing to green day. that was at woodstock 94. I think if he had asked me a different way I would have said no.

Families are a together thing, not a seperate thing. My sister and I went to concerts with my mom, motorcycle riding with my dad (guess where the Harley came from <<eg>>), Day on the Green with 3 generations (including teenagers). About the only thing we didn't do was People's Park and they did give us rides to get there!

I dunno... there's some goths in Bristol in their 50s... it's a slightly different style, but the art seems to be in just doing goth things that don't make you look as though you think you're in your 20s.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hi Peter > By the way the reference was to his old band Elf, which I assumed was his own piss take on his height. It was partly because of Ronnie, and partly because of his cousin, who was also a member, and also of similar height... they were originally called "The Electric Elves", but changed their name in about 1972 before recording their first album... some 14 years after the first album Dio recorded with The Vegas Kings. Amazing to think that he's been active on the music scene for 47 years... I bet not many people can match that! BB Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hi Peter > Without wishing to sound like a broken record, I never was much into Priest and therefore didnt listen to much, but what I > did hear didnt do it for me. Sure they are good guitarists, but the point I was trying to make was that they are second > generation guitarists who would probably list the likes of Page/ Blackmore as their influences, and to my cloth ears dont > have the individual style that their forebearers had. Priest formed in 1969 - the same year as Deep Purple. I know that Blackmore had been around in groups like Screaming Lord Such and the Savages, but wasn't really *that* well known to be influencing people. Page had been around a few years longer (joined the Yardbirds in 1966), but I don't really think that he had such an individual style until Led Zep in 1969... so I wouldn't really call Priest "second generation" compared to them. And when you consider that *no-one* was doing what Priest did in 1969, I don't think it's possible to argue that they didn't have an individual style.... a lot of people have since copied them, but they were the first! > What ever happend to Richie anyway? anyone know?, and as for Mr Page, the last I saw of him he was a lot fatter, and > didnt shine like he used to? Is there an old guitarists home somewhere? Blackmore is now well immersed into "Blackmore's Night", the folk-with-a-hint-of-rock group with his partner, Candice Night. I think they are exceptionally good folk music, but have to be in the right mood to listen to it. Page I haven't heard anything of since the late 1990s when Page & Plant did a couple of albums. And I'll give a virtual vegan chocolate cake to anyone who can tell me the name of the group that Blackmore and Page *both* played in, at different times, before they were famous! And as a clue, Mick Abrahams of Jethro Tull fame, and Albert Lee also played guitar in the same group... all before they were well known!!!!

I think it is great that Jo and Lynda are cool moms.I aim to be that way too. for a kid, when your friends like your parents, that is the biggest compliment. , "Lynda" wrote:>> Geez, Fraggle, all the teens always went everywhere with us, andstill do, > including concerts and stuff AND even the mall!

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Thats the problem, people buying instruments in guitar shops are invariably novice players who are not that good and concentrate like mad on one or two songs. Something a bit more challenging sometimes taxes their ability. The Valley Vegan.............Lynda <lurine wrote: Ah, how does one forget them? One either remembers them or one doesn't. Yes? No?
