You rock on, Steven! :-D Or don't. I don't care.

I guess it's 'Love In A Freight Elevator' to accommodate your
wheelchair, eh? Apparently another guy named Tom Cruise runs something
called TheScooterStore and he can get you a scooter at no cost to you
if Medicaid pays for it. He'll even send someone to your house to
pressure you into buying... I mean, gently encourage you to consider
buying from TheScooterStore, even if it takes hours and hours before
you say 'yes'. Bet that flashy red mondo-cool electric scooter could
fit TWO in that freight elevator! ;-)

I guess he's back on drugs. That could be a good thing, maybe he'll
start writing some good music again instead of the garbage they've
been feeding us since Draw the Line...

that's hilarious that you can call out the name of an aerosmith album.
i can't think of a more over-rated musical group.
these guys never had anything and it looks like they never will.
they're my idea of a "no-content" band in spades.
that they've survived this long is a tribute to the miracle of modern
management.
hell, i'd almost rather listen to bruce springsteen.

Now Springsteen I don't care for at all. Still, you can't deny his
contributions, either. - jm

kind of a contradictory statement unless you're like me.
i can't deny his
'contributions' either, really.
he's had rolling stone (or whoever...hehe hehe) in his lap for about
forty years now and not for the good.
all those suckups falling over themselves to cover his crappy songs or
sound like him in hope of getting airplay or (dishonorable) mention
somewhere.
i still maintain that aerosmith is irrelevant except (yuckle-chuck)
perhaps to certain industry insiders.

I suspect that you either weren't around or weren't aware when the
first 5 albums came out. If I started listening to them after their
break up I'd probably feel the same way.

Desmond Child made them rich and suck at the same time.

Good point. Now you know how Rocky feels about trying to find another
bald headed, semi-talented, homo bass player to fit in a XXL gold lame

No doubt. Although, as we've been discussing in another group, Perry
didn't play some of the best stuff on that album, including Train Kept

The other guy is a better guitarist, ( Brad whatshisname). Perry is
over rated as is Carlos Santana and Jimmy Page. All decent guitarists
but far from what I consider great. I saw Zeppelin in 1977 and they
SUCKED!! Page couldn't play shit.

No, unfortunately I never got the chance. That dude could play guitar
though. He's the total opposite of Joe Perry, Carlos Santana and Jimmy
Page, totally a players player.

Are you going to tell me he sucked live too?

I saw Aerosmith 4 times and only once did I think Perry brought it, it
was right after they cleaned up. Santana sucks, but Page did some
creative stuff in his lucid intervals.

I'd rather see any of them than the Beatles...

Another guy that I really enjoyed live was Robin Trower. Saw him

That's some stinky bait, my internet friend....

I've seen Paul McCartney 3 times in my life. The man can entertain.
Not a big fan but my wife is, which means if I ever wanna get laid I'm
pretty much a Beatle fan.

Kicked ass on Led Zeppelin live, that's for fucking sure.

Got that right. Maybe it's just me but I find Robert Plants voice

I never saw him because I'd rather go to a Hannah Montana concert than
sit through that. I saw BB King in a 3000 seat venue and he
entertained the hell out of us. Sitting down.

To be honest, I don't know the last time I listened to Zeppelin. I
played Over the Hills last night on the guitar, but I was no where
near as loaded as Page...

I saw Zeppelin a few times, basically I was bored, in fact, so
bored once I fell asleep, and strangely, dreamed that I was at
a Led Zeppelin concert, but at a different concert than the
one I was at, they played different songs in my dream.

I did see what was probably the greatest train wreck
Led Zeppelin concert in their history, a show where they
tried to leave the stage after playing just two songs
because of a dispute with the concert promoter, but about
a hundred of the promoter's security guards physically
grabbed them and shoved them back on stage.

I was backstage for both of the shows in dispute
and saw the whole disaster happen. What happened
was that at the first show the drummer's kid tried to gain
access to a private area backstage without proper credentials,
and was denied by a promoter security guard. Anyway, the
kid told his dad about not being allowed access,
so he had HIS bodyguards beat the crap out of
the promoter security guard.

The next day, as the Zeppelin was about to take
the stage, they and their bodyguards were served
with like a $10million lawsuit from the promoter for
beating the promoter security guard. So they go out
play about two songs REALLY badly, then TRY
to walk off the stage after ostensibly fulfilling their
contract to perform. But as I said, they were physically
escorted back on stage by the promoter's security
staff, so they played about an hour's worth of
completely horrible crap, and did stuff like pull
women out of the audience and Plant would dance
a waltz with them while the other guys deliberately
played three different songs at once.

All in all, one of the all-time great horrible rock
shows by a "legendary" band, right up there with
the time Keith Moon of the Who passed out
after about three songs and they had to get a
guy out of the audience to play drums for the
rest of the show...

I think Moon took monkey tranquilizers that night. No wonder he died
at 31.
