    Speaking of Nickelback. I can't believe those assholes have a song out now called "Bottoms Up"

      I was in my wife's car when I heard a DJ announce that shitty group and the title Bottoms Up and for an instant I thought, if this is a VH cover, I'm going to vomit in my wife's car. Thankfully, it turned out to be just another shitty attempt at an original song. They should just stop.

        I thought the same thing when I saw it on the Billboard charts. So after a quick listen....yep just another shitty song.
        How do they sleep at night? In a bed of money I guess.

          Yeah, funny. Me too. Good solid fun song. But again they were 1 of so many fucking hair bands competing for an MTV video that most were lucky to get 1 or 2 videos out there with any airplay.

          Mike Tramps voice was nice. Mark Slaughters voice still irritates the fuck out of me.

            Say a special on VH1 I think and they said the VH formula was the blonde tarzan rock god lead singer and we saw how many tried to copy Dave. And for guitar was the smiling sweet innocent guitar shredder and they showed Vito and said he was most blatant ripoff.

              Was it that Metal Evolution pile of shit that was on VH1 Classic? Sam Dunn did ok with "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey" and the Rush and Iron Maiden documentaries. Metal Evolution started well enough, but when he started covering music he wasn't interested in it turned into a shit fest. He really gave the short shrift to the glam bands and let the grunge guys get away with being elitist ass-douches on camera for all the world to see.

                  Speaking of copies...

                  Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

                    You got a point there.
