Yeah, I’m with you on that... everyone’s entitled to their own taste... if we were all exactly the same on this planet, life would be fucking boring!!! 🙂
So, Eric Johnson stepped down and John Petrucci took his spot... and you're telling me you don't like it because of what??? Too much technicality or something?
Anyone ever heard of the G3 lineup? It’s basically Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and John Petrucci... So, for those who actually know them—what's your take? How do you feel about their stuff? Personally, I think they're 👍 👍 👍

Sucking up at rehearsals??? Who specifically?? I mean, I know Kirk Hammett and Lars Ulrich used to mess around... they definitely did that back in the day... but I'm pretty sure they're done with that kind of stuff now 😁 Got anyone else in mind??
Maria Morris5 said:Yeah... I don't get it either. The most ridiculous ones are those songs that go 'dragon came, breathed fire all over the city, hero arrived and saved everyone, blah blah blah...' Honestly? Someone's been reading way too much Tolkien. Or there’s that one track where the lyrics are like 'for the king / for the dwarfs / for the mountains...' or whatever. Great, let's just head straight to Mordor to save the world from Sauron then.🙂
"for the king / for the lands / for the mountains..." Ugh, that's just Rapshody for you... pure power metal... typical Mighty Warriors of heavy metal stuff. 🙄 🙄 😵
Even in metal, some stuff just doesn't stick—but those tracks are usually ultra-fast blasts meant for burning off energy rather than sitting down to hunt for perfection. Look, I'm definitely more into the complex stuff, the songs with actual structure and layers, but hey... sometimes you just need a quick hit of speed 🙂
Jigsaw, Metallica, and Microsoft from the local scene... they aren't half bad, kind of like Black Sabbath and The Beatles Jack Daniel's and Nirvana are on a whole different level 🙂
hmhmh... it honestly baffles me how everyone's out here trashing Metallica for chasing the money, yet nobody says a damn word about Ozzy Osbourne... who basically just sits there on MTV surrounded by mountains of cash!!!!!
