Steel Panther

[Kristy]

Wow, these guys are gay.

[Kristy]

The riff to "Glory Hole" is way cooler... doubt there will be a video for that one though...

Glory Hole, huh? Nope, nothing the could possibly connote anything gay there. And playing guitar in crappy bondage leather and spandex? Nothing gay abut that!

[Seshmeister]

Going to see them tonight!

I think this is the 4th time...

[binnie]

Let us know if they play any new tunes (and if they're any good).

From the two I've heard so far - 'The Burden of Being Wonderful' and 'Party Like Tomorrow Is the End of The World' - I sense that they may have toned the jokes down.......

[Seshmeister]

They played a few and as you say they seemed a little tamer.

The place was sold out and jumping and the audience loved them.

I was much less happy. For a while they have been doing the taped backing vocals thing but now for a few songs they then synced that with the video to the song.

This is a really fucking horrible idea.

There is a fine line between stupid and clever. For me making a joke of the miming thing doesn't work at all. I think the guitar, bass and drums were probably live but when you have video in the background slightly out of time it becomes hugely distracting wondering is the video out of time or is their miming out of time.

I had to fuck off home as I have an insanely early work thing tomorrow so I didn't get a chance to raise it with them.

I'm sure they would have ignored me anyhow as few other people seemed to care too much.

Maybe I'm just grumpy because of the exploitative bar prices at the place which always piss me off, I think I spent about $80 in 2 hours which is irritating.

And Tinfoil Kitty are stupid...

[High Life Man]

They played 'Glory Hole' when I saw them in January. It was still fun, but the jokes have been the same for years now.

And I agree, Sesh. The drinks at the places they play are too god damn expensive.

I think taking the piss out of miming is cool.

I suppose they use their own vids because they figure 'we invested a lot of money in these, so lets get our dollars worth.......'

[High Life Man]

Heard the new album.

Oof. A lot of the songs sound really familiar. A pretty meh effort.

Bukkake Dreams cracked me up, however.

[Weeksy Lee Roth]

Bukakke Tears is a great song and title, I also love If I was the King and Gloryhole
for which Gloryhole has a music video made for it and it's in typical Steel Panther
comedic form and Not Safe For Work

[Seshmeister]

Hahahaha!

[vandeleur]

Am not a huge fan of theirs but that was funny , if not a bit on the long side for a one trick pony gag . Still pretty funny .

[Von Halen]

I just picked up the deluxe edition of "All You Can Eat".

Is Ralph the lead singer?

[vandeleur]

Shit the chorus is in my head and I can't stop singing it out loud , sure the people on nightshift are gonna appreciate that

Yeah and the only one that isn't wearing a wig...
