"Tribute" Tour with Dave, Al and Satch

[Terry]

You know she never played on a Carpenter recorded due to their sexist producer who thought her playing was "weak" relying on a session drummer instead. She is indeed better than Phil and Jason combined.

You know, I actually DIDN'T know she had never played drums on a Carpenter record.

[Terry]

Well, that makes sense, given his style of drumming on the Power Station album was pretty much a hybrid of rock & funk influences..

I recall that's why Plant and Page had tapped Thompson for the Live Aid gig and rehearsal time post-Live Aid re: a possible Zep reunion with him on drums, that being the thunderous sound of Thompson's drums on record.

[Seshmeister]

That was always my go to album to test a stereo back in the day.

I believe Tony Thompson was well respected among drummers as being really good.

But she was weak from hunger...

[Seshmeister]

The guy at the back with the beard is carrying her... :D

Wolfie just played guitar On Fire and Hot For Teacher at Taylor Hawkins tribute show. Around 1h 10min mark I think.

[FORD]

didn't realize that was a live show in progress. Right now Joe Walsh is playing with a reunited James Gang. Guess I'll have to look for Wolfie when it replays.

[twonabomber]

well there's one question answered...

A junkie overdoses and his former band mates cannot wait to exploit his death.

[FORD]

Not a bad show though. They had what's left of Rush, followed by what's left of Queen (without Adam LAMEbert, thank Christ!) and 80 year old Paul McCartney singing Helter Skelter.

[Kristy]

Guess Tom Petty and Jimi Hendrix were "busy"

[FORD]

Probably watching the show with Taylor Hawkins... where ever they might all be at the present time.

[FORD]

Well, the replay's up and I saw Wolfie's part of the show. Kid sounded great. Eddie would have been proud. Maybe if this VH tribute concert ever happens, he actually can play lead guitar? Still wouldn't want to see a full tour with him standing in for his dad though.

[Seshmeister]

Not really sure what the point of any of this is, Taylor died having too much fun at 50 with 10s of millions in the bank - is there a message to be learned from that? Not really.

Wolf did a good job on Hot For Dinner Lady and On Fryer and I appreciate using the silly voice man to do a deep cut.

[FORD]

Silly voice man also appeared later with What's Left of Queen. Certainly better than Adam LAMEbert. Justin always wanted to be Freddie Mercury. That's about as close as he'll ever get.
