I'll let you know after I see SG at the Fox Theater in Oakland next February. Should be fun! |

Chris is a brilliant vocalist, the band is very tight and powerful. Solo does lose it points though.
8 That solo - talk about "called in"! Disrespectful, really. Chris' voice is all there is for this song. |

Mediocre bar band, with above-average vocals.

Didn't really like this one much. Sounded a bit too bombastic.

Boycotting all music played on commercial radio would violate what I am gleaning is the purpose of RP — to play diverse music from diverse sources and not deny accessibility to any good music. There. Let my stoning commence for uttering such blasphemy! I agree with that, but I don't think that RP selects songs on that basis. The fact that you actually think there is such a think as commercial music I would dispute however. Why does everyone want to make things so complicated? There is good music, and there is music that is not so good, or just bad. It is different for different people. What sells well is not a criteria that anyone should worry about. It's not really worth discussing even. Enough. This horse has been beaten to death. |

RP : could we have "I am the highway" pleeeaaaaaase ?  They released a third album, "Revelations", but as you said, they kind of fell off a bit. They were a good group that was probably best kept short lived, unfortunately. |

Buckethead was busy that night so they had to come up with their own riffs. |

Also, i dont get the RATM comparison. There surely are no sonic similarities, just some musicians are shared.
Some musicians —- as in —— all the musicians |

Agreed - did you see Morello at the R&R HOF concerts with Springsteen doing Tom Joad. Solo similarly at odds with the rest of the presentation. |

Yea, I love this song so I borrowed the album from a friend. This was the only song I really liked on there. |

Have they updated the sound of Grand Funk Railroad? Audioslave has done better than this.
