Fresh ingredients or not, I ain't coming for visits anymore!



But best of luck to your venture, I hope it is a barking success!

You could always travel back in time and ask someone: Are you Mariah Connor Carey?

The sound was indeed abysmal. No excuse for that at all.

I don't know about the words (she missed one line and sang another one twice, getting the words slightly wrong, but the American Anthem has gotten through worse things I believe), but I've heard it sung a lot worse. Inter alia by Whitney Houston. That is not my style of singing at all, but considering it's done acapella, it could be a lot worse. And nobody who invited her probably thought she would sing it "straight".

Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil. That auction never even existed.

I always liked his voice. Does that make me very  :gay: :gay: :gay: or just a little?

Well, it had to have something good added to it, right?  :P

He died in his sleep. Causes at this point unknown. I'd be really surprised if drugs were behind it with this guy.

They are not Prince, that is for sure, even if they swiped some of his visuals I thought. Prince can be glamorous, OTT and still have substance in music. And throw one hell of a shadow all the while.

I'm no Black Eyed Peas hater, but this was both overdone and lame. And I've heard Fergie sing better than yesterday, but it might have been nerves and bad stage sound, other bands have had issues with that too.

That's the song I thought of.



Ironically, he wanted to move away from blues into celtic rock and even record with The Chieftains lately.

On most other stuff he did, the issue was that he was trying just too darn hard, squeezing every drop of emotion (he undoubtely had if you ever saw him play live) into every note. But his taste in guitars sure got better over time:

It was in the German TV news. Never my favorite guitarist or singer, he is certainly a loss. I didn't know he had health issues. In a druggie band like Thin Lizzy, he certainly seemed like a health obsessive. What did he die of?

On his "Irish Album" Wild Frontier was a nice ballad reputedly written for Phil Lynott called "Johnny Boy". They should play that at his funeral.

On the new Ripper II, the pups come courtesy of Seymour Duncan. I'm sure, if you ask them nicely, they'll sell you a pair. They match the sound of the old one, but are more there, single coilish nature and all. I very much liked the sound I got with my Ripper II on our recordings.
