Keyser_Soze Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 The only good album they have is self titled in 1998 and are totally irrelevant now. No regrets here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dream Theater is usually at its best when Magini or Portnoy is heavily involved in the creative process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Grohl? 7 minutes ago, Jason said: I only found out last night, because someone brought it up after someone else mentioned that the Nirvana drummer is also a chud. Nirvana's bassist, Krist Novocelic praised Trump recently. That might be what you're thinking about. I would be disappointed, but I can't recall a thing of note the guy did after Nirvana anyway. I don't know for sure about Dave Grohl's politics, or if he has even expressed any, but he did do a popular rickroll on the Westboro Baptist church years back so if I had to guess it would be non-Trump supporter.

That might be what you're thinking about. Probably. It came up in response to some dude who vandalized a George Floyd mural in Long Beach was wearing a Nirvana shirt while doing so, someone pointed out that it was another "how dare Rage Against The Machine get political" kind of clueless moment and then someone else responded about the chud Nirvana member.

SaysWho? Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I like making jokes about Ringo -- one of my favorite lines was Colbert in 08 when he interviewed Paul McCartney, and the intro said, "The Beatles members were John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and the luckiest man in the history of the world," -- but he's a great drummer. What made him so good was his creative ability, listening to a song like Strawberry Fields Forever or A Day in the Life and knowing how to make the drum section work. If you just play the drum track to something like Come Together, there's no mistaking it for any other song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
