Tuesday @ the SHOWBOX- The Glorious Sons
Struts with The Glorious Sons. The Struts have already made a name for themselves and are a hell of a band, but to anyone in Seattle you've gotta go check out The Glorious Sons. I've seen them twice in NY (Watertown & Syracuse) and they are a must see live. They remind me of PJ in so many ways in the old days. I definitely…

Allow me to introduce a tremendous band out of Charleston, SC... Rare Creatures! Their debut album dropped on spotify tonight and it is self-titled.

Alice in Chains 2018 Tour
Kicked off last night at the HOB in Boston. Say what you will about the band post Layne, these guys can still bring it!!! Place was packed, great crowd. They may not play 3 hour, 30+ song shows like some bands, but a nice spaced out set list. Seen them 3x with Layne, 3x without, still a solid live band. Looking forward to…

Vinyl _____ Show your best/worst sounding!

But, I thought I'd start another thread, unrelated to that one... This topic is for anyone that's interested in posting records they have in their collection's that…

Is this vinyl player good?
So the ON-OFF stick is broken off, so my dad gave it to me. Is it a common/good player (Pioneer PL-510)? Worth trying to find a new "stick"..? (Is that even possible?) I also think the arm doesn't go back automatically at the end of playing a side. Should I just buy a brand new vinyl player instead?

Check out Sturgil Simpson
He is badass! If any of you guys even remotely like country start with his album Metamodern Sounds In Country Music. If you can't stand country music then start with his latest album, A Sailor's Guide To Earth, and specifically songs Breakers Roar, Sea Stories, In Bloom and Brace For Impact (Live A Little). I saw him this…

Any Fusion fans?
Also know as just "Jazz Fusion". I tend to say "Jazz/Rock Fusion" or "Rock/Jazz Fusion" since those two genres are what is being fused, but for now I'll just call it "Fusion". So anyway, I thought it would be cool to hear from any fusion fans here. My favorite fusion artist is Larry Coryell and I finally replaced an old…

The man who coined the word "cool".

How's Your Luck Been in the Used Bins Lately?
Got this thread idea from another forum, but I thought this would be a nice place to see what everyone is finding at their local shops. I have been more into CDs lately, looking for early pressings of my favorite albums. Used Bin vinyl can be so hit and miss, and with the "Cool" mark-up used vinyl is now getting, it pushes…

Same Song Title, Different Band/Artist: "One”
This week’s song is “One,” which I’ve found to be a heavy hitter in three different decades. Metallica - 1988, off of the “And Justice For All” record U2 - 1992, off of the “Achtung Baby” record Three Dog Night - 1969, written by Harry Nilsson Feel free to go off of the board and suggest a song that is not one of these…
