I always wonder how the mall record stores survive. They are so overpriced in comparison to Targets and BestBuys. THen I got to thinking about the poor teens and their $20 allowance just waiting to score that new Easy-E CD @ $17.99 who doesn't have access to driving to Target but getting dropped of...

Hall of Fame Induction Tonight

Got the TIVO set! Looking forward to a great night of music... With the exception of the Van Halen mess. I guess Velvet Revolver is only going to 2 songs (1 from DLR, and 1 from Sammy). Sammy and Michael should be attendance, I would like to see them jam. REM... this will be great to see too... Firs...

Normally, the <i>"spring ahead"</i> doesn't even phase me, but it did this year. Our 21 month old daughter wakes up ridiculously early every morning. My days to get up with her are Sunday and Monday. Well, as expected Haley was jumping up and down in her crib at about 6:30 AM (really 5:30...

It is irony that the only 2 (maybe) members that will be there Monday might be Michael, and Sammy... the 2 that "aren't in it" anymore. It's tough call between Vh tour, or GNR album... they both wait long enough and neither one will have an impact, and become irrelevant. The reviews I've ...

Personally they should just do whatever it is that needs to get done to tour - Wolf or Michael. Then deal with the fall out. VH tours before Axl gets his bloated "G'N'R" album out is a given. Because there won't be any G'N'R this year - they're busy recording a new Velvet Revolver LP! Oh ...

I didn't say bass players are irrelevant, just that Van Halen bass playing requires no intelligence. If you find that to mean irrelevant than you better look up that actual term for that word. And I know a lot about music. VH bass playing does not... harmonizing with DLR does! Michael was GREAT at ...

Prices will be dropping... as we get closer to 2009 then they will be super cheap. Consider how far away you are sitting from the TV. TV won't matter if sound is important... Then you're talking surround sound. I would go with at least a 7.1 surround receiver.... (sub, center, fronts, mids, rears) I...
