No idea about Rap??? Well here's Ra the Ruged Mans history of it.


More later   

Went and seen That 1 Guy in Tulsa last night ... all I can say is FUCKING FANTASTC   



My wife with a little girl who was wearing her That 1 Guy hat - my wife had brought a package of mustaches so she gave the little girl and her 2 brothers a mustache   



and here she is with the Guy himself ...



I was accidentally caught in this pic - he sells (and autographs for free   ) his own merchandise after the shows ...




He is on a US tour right now ... check here for dates :

If you like great music in the key of beotch please go to see him - you will not regret it   

he is a truly original artist and a very personable guy   

BEARD!

Hopefully he will come to the UK one day, I'd well check him out  

Looking cool with the beard brother  

Hi Guys.

Fave genres with a couple of favourite artists for each are...

Electronica ( Boards Of Canada/ Dj Shadow )
Contemporary Fare ( Arcade Fire/ Arctic Monkeys )
Metal ( Ghost/ Classic Sabbath )
Instrumental ( Mogwai, Godspeed )
Soundtracks ( John Carpenter/ Ennio Morricone )

..and many others ranging from stuff nobody cares about to some classics.

Time to bump this great thread

here's one of my favorite Zappa related memories :

Terry Bozzio    

James, I'm still listening to the Zappa cd's you kindly sent me from the states a while ago brother    

I'm lovin' the Zappa vids.   
I didn't get to see Zappa perform live, but I did see Terry Bozzio around 15 years ago when he was giving a demonstration/drum clinic in a small university lecture.

Nice one Steve   that must have been awesome to attend mate  

Zappa had some great drummers in his line ups over the years, Terry Bozzio, Chad Wackerman, Chester Thompson to name a few  

just one of many excellent songs contained within Buckethead's "Pikes" series . Each Pike is numbered like a little comic book cover - the series is up into the 50's now and I think he's only been working on them for 3 or 4 years   

if you are interested they can be ordered directly from Bucketheadland and the standard editions are only $10 each

Today is my hero's birthday ...

Happy Birthday Mr. Bucket   

Due to Chop Top being brought up here : http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t7145-section-for-customs-dioramas-photography

I was reminded of another Buckethead project he does with Bill Mosely   

It's called "Cornbugs" - Mosely does the singing as "Choptop"   

It is primarily done for humor to entertain those of us with a dark side - so don't judge Bucky by his playing here please - he is playing a character too . Buckethead dresses and haphazardly plays as if he were Leatherface   







They have put out 5 or 6 cds and there is tons of it on youtube if this weirdness tickles your fancy  

Following on from a previous chat with Jim, via PM, about the prog rock band 'Tool'.
And about a gorgeous drumming girl vid I posted on Paul's (Artour_Detour) birthday thread.

Here's a couple of cool vids of both Meytal Cohen, some awesome kids doing a cover of Tool's 46 & 2
and some cool bands that I'm into

couldn't decide between these two, so i posted up both

 

another tool track 46 & 2 covered by some awesome kids



and here's a couple of bands that i'm into:

firstly staying with the Prog theme, here is a band that's been around for quite a while now and this is an older, but very good, track:
Arriving somewhere but not here by guitar geeks 'Porcupine Tree'

 

This is a new band that i've been listening to for a while now on kerrang radio, their debut album finally came out in August Its amazing how much sound you get from just a bass guitar and a drum kit.

 

edit:
oh yeah, and these guys are very good, super group, Killer Be killed  
made up of:
Max Cavalera - Soulfly/ex-Sepultura
Troy Sanders - Mastadon
Greg Puciato - Dillinger Escape Plan
Dave Elitch - The Mars Volta



enjoy, cheers.

Meytal Cohen is certainly a class act
After she came out of the Israeli army(after two years), she enrolled at the Los Angeles Music Academy and was professionally trained in drums and percussion by many world class musicians like Ralph Humphrey who played with Zappa

Ralph Humphrey played drums on Zappa's Overnite Sensation, one of my favourite Zappa albums

Great stuff Chris

I really enjoyed the Killer Be killed - as a big fan of Soulfly/Sepultura and The Dillinger Escape Plan , these guys are right up my alley


The Porcupine Tree is quite cool too - almost reminds me of a cross between Tool and Marillion  ...  Toorillion


and Meytal Cohen is awesome - fantastic drummer and oh so hot


here's one of my favorite Tool songs ... the 1st time I heard this version of "Push It" was live and I thought I would never get to hear the version again but luckily they released it on their Salival box set . The set was released in pretty limited numbers so its not a song everyone is probably familiar with ...

Hey James, The puppet looks like That 1 Guy in the video mate :scratch:

Great sounds man

Glad you like it Andy

That is a puppet version of That 1 Guy

I think Modern Man is a track on his newest CD

Ha ha, that was great Sunday morning viewing, thanks for posting Jim.
It's like 'that 1guy' meets the muppets

This thread I can contribute to. New whitechapel, exodus, overkill, within temptation, nonpoint, opeth, at the gates, carcass, killer be killed, epica, suicide silence, devil you know, etc.

I have been jamming on Five Finger Death Punch a lot lately  






and here's Chris's sexy little drummer girl Meytal ...






this was the band Ivan Moody (the vocalist) was in before 5 Finger Death Punch ...



I love Motograter too  




Ivan had a song in one of my favorite movies as well ...

This next one sums up my attitude for today quite well

Yesterday was Alice Coopers birthday, tomorrow it's Axl Roses. Here's a song which features both artists.




And one of my favourite songs by Alice In Chains.
