ction Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Apparently, I pretty much drank a full Heineken mini-keg by myself Saturday night. Plus a handful of Newcastles, and then part of another Heineken mini-keg. Link to post Share on other sites

ction Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 black out? > Love at First Sting Aside from a slight headache when I went to bed that night (and perhaps some slurred speech during the evening), I was ok. I also felt great the next morning. I just really don't recall drinking 15-20 cups of beer, or whatever it was. Link to post Share on other sites

JUDE Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 At the Monsters Of Rock concert in 87' I actually slept through the Scorpions set. I had already rocked out to Dokken, Metallica and some other band who's name escapes me at this time. The Scorps. flight was delayed 2 hrs and combined with the beers I had consumed prior to that it seemed like a good time to catch some Z's. Last thing I remember was Klause Meine running around trying to get the crowd to do "the wave" while jabbering in broken English. I woke up in time for Van Halens set.

ction Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 How the hell did you know that? Â I can read your mind. Â P.S. My pal Jeff and I saw the Monsters of Rock tour at the Meadowlands that summer. Interestingly enough, the douchebag bass player for Kingdom Come (who seemed very coked up) tried to convince me and Jeff to drive him into NYC after the show (we were staying at the same hotel). Jeff, who has more balls than me, told him we'd have been happy to if his band wasn't so awful. Link to post Share on other sites

ction Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 I think '85 saw the debut of the "Metal up Your Ass" t-shirt. Which just might have been the best shirt ever. Link to post Share on other sites

JUDE Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 That's a bold statement... Bold opinion actally, but you could make the argument that YHF is Wilco's Master of Puppets See the following similarities: 1.Up until Master of Puppets, Metallica was relatively obscure, this album opened up a larger fan base. 2. After the release of Master of Puppets a key member of the band left the group, squished by a bus actually but I digress, and the band's output started to suck. Link to post Share on other sites
ction Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Ride the Lightning or Master of Puppets? Too close to call...I think this will require a head-to-head battle of the songs to decide. Both albums, while awesome, did follow a single formula. Match 1 - "Battery" vs. "Fight Fire With Fire" Both songs have the dramatic intro music leading to full-tilt thrash... the winner has to be "Battery" though. But only by a little. Match 2 - Battle of the Title Tracks. "Puppets" wins this one hands down. Match 3 - "For Whom the Bell Tolls" vs. "The Thing That Should Not Be", aka the track 3 slower-song fight. "FWTBT" by a mile. Match 4 - Thrash power ballads..."Fade to Black" vs. "Sanitarium". Both songs are pretty good, but "FTB" has much better chugga chugga riffs when the song gets heavy. Through side one, we're all tied up. Link to post Share on other sites
