EUROPE Bootlegs

[philouze]

Here is what I've got... If somebody's interested..

[envy_me]

I'd really like to recommend Le Baron Boys demos.

[Cato]

does anyone have this version on CD?


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAg5KjnAhuU

[philouze]

No, Cato san. Sorry. I do have the Toy Dolls version, though. And the Elakelaiset one too..
And that guy plays the wrong chord, normally it's F sharp MINOR. lol

[envy_me]

These people don't know what good music is :D

[philouze]

Exactly what I was thinking... ;)

[envy_me]

I see you have Sweden Rock Festival there. Amazing gig :-)

[envy_me]

I love this one


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LI0sTM9aVl8

[philouze]

I downloaded the show the day after. When I saw the setlist, I almost had a heart attack. The King Will Return, Heart Of Stone, Wings Of Tomorrow... Not to mention one of the best renditions of TFC. And the first time we heard Start From The Dark.. Heavy as shit. I loved it right away.
Yeah, 'tis one hell of a gig...
The one in Madrid in 2004 is amazing too. Crazy audience all the way through.

Hahaha, omg that's crazy! I also downloaded it the day after. And two days later, I met one of the guys from the band and he said "Can you believe it, the concert is already out there, being downloaded". And I was like "No way, that's crazy" :D But I had it already myself :D

[philouze]

What did they expect? Us waiting for months? Weeks? Days? I couldn't. :)

[envy_me]

What did they expect? Us waiting for months? Weeks? Days? I couldn't. :)

Where did you get it, considering that you were never on the site?

[philouze]

Um... Let's see... I can't honestly remember, but it was on a message board.
I remember that day: I was at work, and during a break, I saw IT. Immediately downloaded it, listened to it and decided to teach Norum licks to my students (I was a guitar teacher back then.. failed musician indeed)!!
It was a cool day, seeing these kids trying to play riffs from Scream Of Anger and Seven Doors Hotel!!! Priceless. One of the best days of that era.

I would have perfered Kee, but Norum has been practicing before the reunion, I could tell :-)

[envy_me]

This song is so fantastic! My favorite of Europe.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyLFGLFpLgY

[philouze]

If you wanna know the bottom of what I think, here it is: Europe's most beautiful and killer solo is Tower Callin'. Actually, this is one of my 3 favorite Europe songs.
Every time I play this solo, it's like I'm completely elsewhere. I just Love it.

[envy_me]

OOTW had amazing songs. Every song is great. The sound is the only problem. It might be a bit overproduced.

[philouze]

Ron Nevison did what he was told to, I think. Epic (thanks guys, for fuckin the band in the ass, and thanks to Erdtman too) wanted them to be Def Leppard. They toured with them later on, but those two bands are different. Record companies are pricks, here's another evidence.
OOTW is my favorite album with Kee. I jumped on the Red Fun album the week it got out !!! "Doctor Love, can't get enough, can't get enough of your loooooooove"... Kee kicked major ass on that one.

I saw Kee live two times with his own bands, he is mindblowing. He has gotten better since the 80ies.
I was actually given the opportunity to meet Erdtman. I was workning at a bar, and hanging out there, and I became good friends with a guy, who later turned out to be great friends with Erdtman.

But I didn't want to. What was I gonna meet him for??

[philouze]

You're right, I guess he wouldn't have given you the money he's ripped of the guys' back. :)

[envy_me]

You're right, I guess he wouldn't have given you the money he's ripped of the guys' back. :)

And this guy was telling me like "Oh, Erdtman is gonna love you *wink*". I'm like "I'm really busy at the moment..." hahahha :D
Wtf?

[philouze]

The guy has good tastes, remember... ;)
Nah, come on. You did good.

[envy_me]

The guy has good tastes, remember... ;)
Nah, come on. You did good.

Haha, it would have been cool just to say hi to him, like the circle would be closed. But I thought it would be strange to even say hi, considering what he did to those poor people.

[philouze]

Like kissing Dominique Strauss Kahn.
"I'm not a crook.... Hey baby?"

[envy_me]

Like kissing Dominique Strauss Kahn.
"I'm not a crook.... Hey baby?"

They are both equaly ugly.

[philouze]

And both equally full of money. Actually they're ugly in every sense of the word.

[Hardrock69]

Oh you mean these guys?

Who would want a bootleg of this crap band?

Probably Krusty....:hee:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pw8sNoodIDk

[envy_me]

No, Europe are great :-) they are just stuck with bad reputation.

[Hardrock69]

Ah. I was not aware they were. ;)

[Nitro Express]

All I know of Europe is their Final Countdown video got a lot of airplay on MTV and then they kind of disappeared. I knew one chick who was hot for the singer. LOL! The thing about the states is guys with accents are going to score big with the girls. I bet they got a lot of poontang over here in the day.

[Yount]

Europe are my guilty pleasure. shhh.

I was once drinking with this dude and for some reason "Velvet throat" was mentioned and the convo went from Coverdale to "Golden throat" of Europe. The other dude looks me in the eye and says: "Greatest... Voice.... Of.... The.... 80's" LOL

Great first 2 albums. I also have a Live in Japan double LP in mint condition!
Always preferred Norum to Marcello, but to each his own.

But yeah, Out of this world, hmmm it's pretty processed. I also have the LP Total Control by John Norum, which has some great tracks. BOTH albums have a Final Countdownish-type song on there: Superstitious (Europe) and Love was meant to last forever (Norum). Those boys loved the trumpet keys!! And on the album "The Final Countdown" they also had "Love chaser" which had some similarities as well.

[Yount]

The sun is down
The day is done
The sky is dark
And i'm on the run
Yesterday is so far away

[envy_me]

Have you heard Le Baron Boys demos? You HAVE to, if you haven't already.

[philouze]

Great song, that one, Memories. And yeah, I second Envy about Le Baron Boys demos.

[envy_me]

This song is so great! We should have a Europe thread in music part of the forum.

[envy_me]

I LOVE this band!

[philouze]

Hey, they played In The Future To Come, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of ROCK SM, you know, they were called Force, they won... Two songs were played that night: Future & King Will Return.
It happened on December, 13th in Stockholm, at the Hovet. And HERE. IT. IS


http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ktrQeUO64GY

Cool move, but sloppy, if you ask me. But Cool Move, guys. Thanks from the early years fans.

Couple of my friends were there.

[philouze]

And huh, Envy, darling?
Devil Sings The Blues is great. But I think that Forever Travelling is greater. That's the one I would have put out of that Almost Unplugged gig.. That, and Memories, UFO's Love To Love, Led Zep's Since I've Been Loving You and then, the big one: Thin Lizzy's Suicide. But then again, we fans love different songs, and the problem with Europe is: all of them are good.

I KNOW!!! I just shared Love to love on my facebook :D
ALL of them are good.

[philouze]

Oh yeah, all of them. Except maybe... Broken Dreams? Come on...

[envy_me]

"all of them" was more of an expression. I don't like Seventh Sign, Bad Blood, actually few more.

[philouze]

Tell me you like Mind In The Gutter & Girl From Lebanon, then I'll ask you something.

[envy_me]

Tell me you like Mind In The Gutter & Girl From Lebanon, then I'll ask you something.

I love them both :-)

[philouze]

I love them both :-)

OK, then my question is:

Can you quack like a duck?
NO, SORRY, I was just joking.

The REAL question is: whoever you are, Envy, where the hell have you been? I love animals, I can stop smoking & drinking (and I can come home, wooo-hooo, only women bleed...), I can cook.. Let's do this officially: will you make me a sandwich?

[envy_me]

Bahahaha :D you should have been hanging out at the europe forum while it was still there, we had plenty of girls there. And like 98% of them were awesome :-)

[philouze]

I'm not awesome, not even cute. I'm just a French ghey failed musician. Not a chance, ba-bay !
My cat runs away when he smells me.
I don't stand a chance with a girl from a Europe message board. I'm aware of that. Thanks to pot.

[envy_me]

Of course you stand a chance. Now lets see some confidence.

[philouze]

The one thing you won't see with me is confidence. No way.
I'd rather show you my ass. Confidence? Never had any, never will have.
Take that with you. Everyone.

Back on topic...

(I'm off to bed. See y'all later)

[ELVIS]

OK, then my question is:

Can you quack like a duck?
NO, SORRY, I was just joking.



What a wuss...

I'll bet the fuck she can quack like a duck, but you'll never find out...

Stand up like a man and be honest about yourself and what you like...

Chicks appreciate that...

If you like a chick quacking like a duck let her know...

She just might learn it for you...


:elvis:

:elvis:

Dude, you're soooo rude...
If I wanna hear someone quacking while fucking, I'll go fuck a duck.

Lotsa rhymes, innit?

edit: I don't give a flying fuck about Envy's private life. I don't even care about mine..

[ELVIS]

You know you want her to quack...

[philouze]

Huh.. I don't think so, my man...
Besides, I'm not into virtual sex, and the only way I could have sex with her would be me going in her country, and I don't even know what the fuck it is. And even if I knew, I got more important things to do than travel miles just to hear a girl quack. Maybe she can do a video of her doing that. So we can ALL enjoy it, and you too, my Friend..

[philouze]

Elvis, you know you want her down for the DP..

[ELVIS]

Ahh...

Hop a plane to the land of Yngwie and have a good time...:biggrin:

[philouze]

Sweden's too cold for my hemorrhoids.

[envy_me]

Wtf guys?

[philouze]

Elvis started it. Blame Him.

[envy_me]

I don't quack. I can do it but I don't. What is DP? And girls DO like guys who stand up for themselves and act like men.

[philouze]

I don't quack. I can do it but I don't. What is DP? And girls DO like guys who stand up for themselves and act like men.

DP stands for Double Penetration.

I act like a man, I tell the world I have hemorrhoids. And yeah, I stand up. I can't sit down.

[envy_me]

DP stands for Double Penetration.

Haha, I didn't say you don't :-) I just said girls like that.

[philouze]

Do ducks like that too?

[ELVIS]

See, she likes you...

If she is indeed a she...


:biggrin:

[envy_me]

I like many people :-) including my french friend.

[philouze]

I wouldn't mind if she was a he. As long as he doesn't touch my ass. Or any other part of my aging body.
Thanks, Envy. Woman or man, you're a Europe fan, and that's enough for me.. ;)
See how I can get back on topic??
That's class for y'all. Who said "Class dismissed"?

[envy_me]

If she is indeed a she...


:biggrin:

Shut up Elvis, I am a woman :-(

[ELVIS]

Hey, one thing I've learned from David Lee Roth is "Hey, you never know."


:biggrin:

[Zing!]

At least this was a decent derail for once. I found myself wondering why I was spending so much time in a Europe bootleg thread.

[envy_me]

Hey, one thing I've learned from David Lee Roth is "Hey, you never know."


:biggrin:

Sometimes you do know :D One doesn't have to quack or DP to be a woman :D

[envy_me]

This is where it happends, baby :D

[philouze]

Europe can bring people together and that's what happened here. By accident, yes, but it did happen.
No Big 'Ting.

[ELVIS]

Ok, it's the final countdown, philo...

Get you some envy...

[philouze]

For me, it will be the final condom.

[envy_me]

Ok, it's the final countdown, philo...

Get you some envy...

Are you trying to fix us up? :D

[ELVIS]

He likes you...

[envy_me]

He likes you...

...many people do ;-)

[philouze]

Are you trying to fix us up? :D

If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Oh yeah.

[philouze]

He likes you...

I like you too, my man. Does that make me a gay failed musician?

[envy_me]

I like you too, my man. Does that make me a gay failed musician?

You two can DP each other. And quack :D I can watch :D

[philouze]

I don't mind... But you forget something, love.
We, men, have only ONE hole. Elvis, are you down for D Anal P?

[envy_me]

I don't mind... But you forget something, love.
We, men, have only ONE hole. Elvis, are you down for D Anal P?

What about the mouth?

[ELVIS]

Fuck no...

I'm hetero and not down with DP...

[philouze]

What about the mouth?

Mouth is for cigarettes, honey.

[envy_me]

Mouth is for cigarettes, honey.

I don't smoke.

[philouze]

I do. I smoke when I get filled. Makes me randy. What the fuck am I saying?

[philouze]

Here....

[envy_me]

Wow, this thread is great. It hasn't been ruined or anything.
Maybe that's the secret. Name the thread so no one will be interested in reading it, like "What do you guys think about Celine Dions entry for Eurovision in 1988?" and it will stay clean of trolls...

[philouze]

Celine Dion's horse crap. Europe is a Rock N Roll band. And we're here. Hence, no pollution.

[envy_me]

Celine Dion's horse crap. Europe is a Rock N Roll band. And we're here. Hence, no pollution.

Yeah, I know that. But an average VH fan has probably no interest in either one.

[envy_me]

When we're on that subject, GOD I LOVE DAVID GUETTA!!!

[philouze]

And that's a shame... Europe is underrated. Celine's Overrated. That's a Life Paradox.

[envy_me]

And that's a shame... Europe is underrated. Celine's Overrated. That's a Life Paradox.

Amen!

[philouze]

When we're on that subject, GOD I LOVE DAVID GUETTA!!!

I hate him.. Sorry, love... I prefer Daft Punk. THEY write their music. I respect Guetta, but he doesn't ring any bell in me. Sorry again.

[envy_me]

I hate him.. Sorry, love... I prefer Daft Punk. THEY write their music. I respect Guetta, but he doesn't ring any bell in me. Sorry again.

Haha, it's okay :-) I really like him.

[Dave's Bitch]

I prefer Judas Priest

I LOVE YOU!!! That is my favorite. I have a great story about the first time I heard that song, I'll tell you one day :-)

[philouze]

I LOVE YOU!!!

Shhhh... You're drunk.

I love this song, and Kee's guitar parts on it are just Great.

[envy_me]

Shhhh... You're drunk.

I'm not drunk, I just love this song :D

[envy_me]

Just hear this song.

[philouze]

Hear this one too


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmtMWQU4RDs

Speaks to me in a weird way... Reminds me of good ol' times.

[envy_me]

That's it. We need a proper Europe thread in Music. Could you do it? You are a better thread starter then I.

[philouze]

That's it. We need a proper Europe thread in Music. Could you do it? You are a better thread starter then I.

I'm flattered, prinsessa. We indeed need a Europe thread in this forum. Like we need a Zappa thread. Or a Steely Dan thread. Or a Kate Bush thread. Let's. Do. This.

[envy_me]

Let's start with Europe, and wait couple of weeks with all the others so they don't steal attention from Europe.
