  Yes, but there are other Queen services available -- either being on

"Most hated ex-Floydian"?? Flip back a few years/albums, and you'll
see that most lyrics/concepts were his. Have you forgotten --
"Speeding away on a wintery new day

					----- San Tropez, Meddle, 1971.
Waters evidently had an unhappy childhood followed by an unhappy marriage
but most of his creative genius sprang from that pain and suffering. As far
as the more recent material (solo) goes, he wasn't Floyd alone, but in his own
words: "Pink Floyd is a spent force, hence I'm leaving" --- mid-80's.

Stuart, you have got to be kidding!  I might agree with a few of your picks,
but, *not* because of their name.  You are *really* starting this because you
thought that it would be a *clever* thread and would invite lots of flames,
right?  Come on now, be honest.  What's the matter, haven't been flamed lately?
Please, give us a clue as to what you consider *good music* is.  I think we
*all* would like to know!

I know that when *I* go to a record store, I immediately bypass all groups or
album names that are naned after a *theme*.  If I didn't like doctors, I would
immediately bypass ELP's Brain Salad Surgery.  If I didn't like astronomers,
of course, I wouldn't even consider Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.  If I
didn't like acronyms, what? me consider anything by U2?  I hate stupid
questions, so anything by the Who is rubbish, right?

Your idea of the list is a good one, but to trash everyone on the list just
because they happened to name themselves after a country or city (or theme)
is foolishness.

BTW, there was a fairly decent band around in the early 80's that called
themselves 'New England'.

So, if anyone else wants to add to this list, I will compile it and post the
results when the interest dies down.  Post it here or to me directly at

In what Jimmy Buffett songs does he make references to trailer or moble
homes (usually in the native and semi-native Floridian's dislike of them)?
Right off the bat I can think of "Son of a Sailer":

"the sea's in my veins, the tradition remains;
I'm just glad I don't live in a trailer."

There is one where he says "...they look much better as beer cans", and 
another where he wishes a storm would come up and "...blow them all away up
to Fantasyland", but I can't remember which songs thoses lines are in.
Who can help out?

    I back Tapio up on this, no one should blame his negative actions
  on being a perfectionist.  A lot of the great ego-maniac perfectionists
  are wonderful to fans.  Dio, Blackmore, David Lee, Yngwie, Bruce Dickinson.
  I have heard numerous incidents where the above mentioned people have shown
  up a local fan-clubs before shows to sign autographs.  David Lee Roth used
  to announce what local bar he go to after shows (and actually show up and
  sign shirts and albums).  Bruce Dickinson is reputed to go to area fencing
  clubs and fence abit with the fans (those that fence) and do the autograph
  and photo thing.  The only place Axl shows up at are arraignments and 
  trials.  I can't stand Metallica anymore but still have enough respect
  for them to wonder why they (a consistently classy and fan devoted band)
  ever agreed to tour with Guns-n-Riots.  The money must be incredible.

The album is titled Mad Mad World, and it is mediocre at best (in my opinion anyway).  The lyrics contain too many cliches and the rhythm is the same throughout the whole album.  The best (other than Life Is A Highway) song on that album is No Regrets.  No big loss if you don't get the rest of it, though.

I agree. While Kenny G CDs are found in the Jazz section, MOR pop/rock
radio stations are the ones that play his music. Perhaps I should have
said "Pop Music Hall of Lame" instead of "Rock & Roll Hall of Lame".

Also, like Mariah Carey, Kenny G has noteworthy musical talent. But it's
the limpness of his music that bothers me.

n.b. It's a sin (if not a crime) the Mariah Carey has scored a hit 
with "I'll Be There". Songs like this one shouldn't be covered just
to rake in more money and/or gold records. Her version is as soulless
as any cocktail lounge rendition.

He doesn't fucking care anymore. Check it out: In his RockLine interview, he
said that Steven Adler got a lump sum of one tenth of the money that Axl had
made on Appetite. Then a little later he mentioned that this sum was $1.5
million. That means Axl's take -- up until the time Steven was axed -- was
$15 million. That was JUST for Appetite. Now how much do you think he has made
touring and for the Illusion set?

The guy is filthy fucking rich. A multi-millionaire.

He doesn't need you nor I anymore. It's all just gravy from here on in. He
could pull a Marlon Brando and buy a Pacific island tomorrow and never talk
to anyone again if that's what he wanted.
