    Slash didn't  do a  GNR tribute band like Axe Hole did,  he got with other guys and it was Velvet Revolver.

    Yeah, the Axl GNR was GNR in name only.

    I'll bet some of these older rockers are doing it for the money, they probably wish they had some of the money they blew years ago. I don't like tribute bands either, I've never been to a tribute concert. I really don't care for the TV show The Voice...televised karaoke?

    I don't label them as a tribute band if there is at least one original member. 

    I did see Todd Rundgren last year. He still puts on a good show for a 75 year old guy. 

    And also, if they are as into playing as they are, and who isn't, how could they stop?

    But yes, sometimes maybe a new band name is a good idea. But I'm fairly sure none of them would listen to me, nor should they.

  3. Whatever floats their collective boat I guess. But ticket prices these days are pretty outrageous.

    But yeah... I wouldn't go see most of the in-effect cover bands. But hey, that's me.

    Ever try listening to Live Peace In Toronto side 2 ? When John says "And Now Yoko Is Gonna Do Her Thing All Over You" he was not kidding. One album side of Yoko screeching like a cat is having small pieces cut off its body by a rusty Bowie knife.  One listen was 5 times too many. 

    I don't recall. I don't think so. I listened to a few random songs and decided that was probably enough.

    I clicked or opened something I shouldn't have a couple of weeks ago.  All of a sudden, I started getting a dozen spam emails and 3 or 4  spam phone calls a day.

    I sure wish the FCC or FBI or someone would track down the culprits and take their computers away.   It would seem it could be a nice way to train their Probies.   

    Ugh, all these e-mails... I used to at least open strange/unexpected e-mails, if not click on any links. These days, straight into the trash they go.
