Dreamy Rover: Godsmack's new track on THE SCORPION KING
is cool. Unfortunately I haven't been able to appreciate their other stuff.
But I do think they can churn out better songs than they have already have
been. Yeah, BON JOVI is someone I'd like to see retire. Not U2 or METALLICA
or OZZY! Ozzy's music still packs a nuclear punch. METALLICA is all set
to unleash an earthquake with their new album. U2 is one good sounding
inspirational band. Whose performance was the best & exciting at the
Grammies, where you had a gourmet of all kinds of music being performed
by all kinds of artists? U2 took the cake! Why? Because WALK ON was pure
unadulterated straight-in-the-face Rock.

they're bad(which they are)as I'm sick of Beyonce's ego and her hypocritical
"christian" beliefs While she shakes her below average looking ass for
money.2.They're are many bands like Def Leppard, Ratt,Dokken,Ozzy,Rush,And
Aerosmith who if they sang from the heart and stopped trying to second
guess the public to ride fad waves.Rush and Ratt are probably the most
influential bands to me personally but Rush's formula of songwriting no
longer works.Geddy can't seem to find a melody he hasn't used already and
the feel of the new songs don't match the lyrics. Warren De Martini Of
Ratt was my favorite metal guitarist but the "yellow" comeback album had
almost no solos whatsoever just like Rush's current album and "test For
Echo" didn't.I believe that Ratt's "collage" album and Rush's "Counterparts
albums were proof they could still do it so why don't they?.3.U2-Achtung
Baby and Joshua tree are the only decent albums they released in the last
twenty years.Shut up Bono you drunk egotistical bastard!!!!4.P.O.D,Linkin
Park.No rapping pot smoking "christians and no rapping poseurs period.5.Kid
rock, Korn, Puddle of mudd.Will all the white trash,wife beating,geeky
disgustoids please give up.I think we're gonna have a problem here.Oh yeah

LadyMuck: Dreamy, was that you who mentioned Godsmack?
They are so f*cking cool, I don't care what anyone says. I think Moon Baby
is one of the hardest-hitting rock songs to come out in the past few years.
Bands that should retire? Hmmm, I still don't agree with ANYONE who says
Metallica, Aerosmith, the Stones, Ozzy, U2 should retire. Bullsh*t. But
the likes of Madonna, Celine, Cher, Michael...well, it wouldn't sadden
me one bit to see THEM go! Bottom line is this, all of these artists have
fans, or they would not still be around.

metalseed: what's wrong with you people?! Metallica
is one of the BEST bands out there!! You all should open your eyes and
listnen to metallica and the immense talent and they have to offer! Metallica
has incredible musical talent! They have been around a long time and will
be around much longer! Heavy metal is the greatest music out there! And
KISS! to you people saying they should retire: they are the ones that really
started rock 'n roll...AND STILL put out good music. you all should appreciate
them for them being around and continually being sucessfull in releasing
their music! they have a unique style. Now bands such as BSB, NSYNC, Britney
spears, sugar ray,Dr.Dre, Eminem and whatever hell else rap out there (rap
is nothing but stupid chanting and mumble about their hoes, and money which
is god awful and horrible sounding!) should retire! they are just a waste
of public time and money! -METALLICA, TOOL, IRON MAIDEN, ICED EARTH, PINK
FLOYD, , LED ZEPPLIN, DEF LEPPARD, OZZY, NIN, JIMMY HENDRIX, GREATFUL DEAD,MARILYN
MANSON S&M, A PERFECT CIRCLE ALL RULE! End of story! :)

But they sounded better in the 70s and 80s compared to today) 3) Celine
Dion - Somebody introduce a bat to this annoying bitch's face! 4) Micheal
Jackson - I used to love his music until I was 13. He made a big mistake,
coming back with those same overused dance moves. 5) Kiss - Nuff said.

just annoyed, that's all. Celine and Cher have made good songs when they

KISS and AC/DC still play? THEY ARE TOO OLD!!!! SOMEONE BACK ME UP HERE!!

that they always did, people just cannot accept tthat their musical style
has changed to try and allow a bit more breathing space...imagine if you
HAD to write the same sort of music for 20 years...you would go bloody
insane. Give them a brake and see what their next album has to offer. My
List of retirements goes like this: 5. 2-Pac: 'But he is Dead' you all
scream...then why is he still releasing music???? 4. P-Diddy: What the

jesusschwartz: ...if this list is simply about artists
past their prime and still living off of their past glories, I have to
agree with the majority the the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith and KISS should
just stay home, but why hasn't anyone mentioned Rush? maybe someone has
already, but I'm not going to read the entire list of posts here...Rush
had several good songs, but as far as quality product, they haven't produced
any since "Moving Pictures" in 1981...as for my fifth choice, I'd have
to say Van Halen...no matter how good a guitar player Eddie is, he hasn't
done anything different since "5150", and that album was only good because
of the new tricks he pulled off; nevermind Sammy Hagar singing ballads
(the beginning of the end was "Dreams" and "Love Walks In", both from 5150)...for
me to be blown away by Eddie Van Halen today would be to see him join the
Dave and Sammy tour as their guitar player for both of their sets each
night...

something in life that other people don't like. Does that mean they should
all die in a car crash? I think that is a terrible thing to say and especially
right after Left Eye Lisa Lopez just died in a car crash! Shame on you!!
Do you have a heart?? I'm not trying to down you dude, but think about

VampireRyan: How can you say anything postive about
Cher and Celine Dion Carolina Girl?! They both suck, never had ANY good
songs, and don't know the meaning of the word retire. And Madonna needs
to give it up. She's in her 40s and is still singing about how she was
"touched for the very first time." She and Britney Spears should both die
in a car crash.
Posted by
Carolina Girl: K Peeps....I have to say who freakin cares
who is still rockin!! I feel if these older bands or people still want
to sing, rock, rap or whatever they want to do, why not? You have to remember
the older peeps on here grew up with alot of these bands and people that
you are knocking. So what if Cher has had plastic surgery, or if you think
she sucks , someone digs her. Cline Dion is a very talented singer and
a beautiful person, but I don't buy her music or Chers, but I think Cher
is the bomb as a person, not a singer, but if it makes her happy go for
it!! Madonna was the bomb when she first came out and got a bit carried
away but came back down to earth and looks damn good for a 40 something
year old chic. I admire these older folks that keep on rockin because it
is their life and maybe keeps them young at heart and maybe they think
that if they stop that it will be all over for them. Everyone is entitled
to their own opinion, but I just think people shouldn't be so harsh.I personally
think Kid Rock is THE BOMB!! But I don't see why someone would want to
sing about F***ING a wound, is that great talent? But like I said before
different strokes for different folks and I think everyone knows this one,
OPINIONS are like A$$HOLES, everyone has one!! Peace To All The Freaks!!

one of my favorite bands and they put one hell of a show every time they

I saw him the last time he was on tour, it was a couple years ago, but
I gotta say anyone who can still rock like that at 50 doesn't need to retire
any time soon.

PoST SiNNeR: Look bands like metallica, aerosmith,
kiss, acdc will always have sell out concerts. well until they end up like
rolling stones. but anyway bands who only at their very peak could fill
venues and forever since then only maintain a average venue attendence
should give it up when they get all old. like pearl jam and green day.
but i sick of saying that entertainers like michael jackson, celine dion,
madonna should give it up. they are not musicians. therefore i dont care.
a musician writes their own music. a musician will get to however high
position in the industry and will respect everything as they earned it.
real musicians did the hard work, made their own image, write thier own
songs, name their own bands and decide on most things that can be decided
by themselves. The S1ut kylie minogue, the biitch said earlier this year
that she wrote her first song. "cant get you out of my head". then i found
out something. she was refering to the lyrics only. all this time she has
been singing, dancing, wearing other peoples work and ideas. all entertainers
(not musicians) should die. most of us hate limp bizkit and such but at
least they earned to be called a musician.. even the cheesy punkers deserve
some respect!
Posted by
aG: Watching KISS on the Dick Clark special
the other night and it was really sad, yes Gene and Paul still can rock
with best of them, Eric Singer has always been a world class drummer but
what is upsetting is that it's really back to being Gene and Paul and if
they are gonna carry on they should take the makeup off again. That sure
wasn't Ace playing the other night and it's a bit of a ripoff for them
to go on stage with other people wearing Peter and Ace's makeup. Just thought
I'd throw that into the mix. These guys need to stop already. They are
flushing their legacy down the toilet with every bogus appearance.

djinalbany: 5-1, As will pearl jam but I think the
point you tried to make about the young kids pertains more to pj. I have
been to many aero and met shows and there is often a mixed crowd agewise.
My experience with pj (# Shows) is that they have a very young crowd.

5 Against One: Aerosmith and Metallica will always sell
cd's and fill arenas, because there will always be a 13 -18 year old demographic

Posted by
djinalbany: 5against1, Aerosmith is the greatest rock
band in american history. 30 years all original members, they are all in
their 50's and they tour twice as much as pj. Aero or metallica will make
pj look silly on stage. I like pj but you have no room to diss these 2
great bands. Pj themselves have stated that they love aero in rolling stone
acouple of years ago.as for metallica"going corporate"they were already
one of the biggest bands in the world when load came out in 95.and by the
way just push play or re-load are tons better then the lame binaurel.

5 Against One: Aerosmith is so over that it makes me
shake, it's really sad. Metallica decided to go corporate and grab the
payday, now they suck ass like most corporate bands. Pearl Jam does what

has! Put your tired ass Aerosmith discs away and get with the program dude!

& so is his guitar playing. Boy, it just brings a smile to your face.
Yeah his SINGING was out of form at the GRAMMY ceremony..but his guitar
sounded as beautiful as always... now he's one man who's got nothing to
share with Paul McCartney or Mick Jagger. Except maybe the numbers of their
ages.

latest concerts from the bands that they are suggesting should retire.
Do yourself a favour go out and buy the Stones latest album BtoB, see the
Who or Dylan in concert, buy Mccartneys Flamming Pie. Chances are youll
change your view or at least be entitled to judge them on the music rather
then on there age and there looks, something that makes the teen pop acts
so popular.

music that is being made by the rock and roll wannabe bands today we should

same thing when they hooked up with Run DMC and look how that ended up.

from good punk to poppy rock crap you know it's time to call it a day..
no one likes you no more. 2. michael jackson - when punk bands can cover
your songs better then you can play them then you know it's time to take
your millions of dollars and go piss off. and finally my number one band
to take a hike and retire... 1. limp bizkit - wes borland wrote all the
music for limp bizkit he went last year and they havent found a replacement
since.. no one likes fred... go have some hotdog flavored water ya nine
inch nails disser!!!

it's time to quit.

I was supposed to go see him in concert about a month and a half ago,but

have it anymore. Who knows? Dylan may never become that way. For his sake,I
hope not. Like I said,if he keeps making records I will continue to buy
them as long as they're good stuff.

Carolina Girl: BK??? What are you talking about, Bob
Dylan should retire???? Have you seen him in concert lately?? He is the
BOMB!! I have seen him like 15 times over the years and excuse me, but
Bob like wine only gets better with age. Love and Theft is one of his best
released. His shows rock and he seems to be enjoying his self rocking out
with the fans. Let the man rock until he is ready to quit!! Bob is a smart
man, I am sure he will know when it is time to quit. Don't go by what you
saw on the Grammy's, go see one of his shows and I think you will think
differently!! Also, it's called different strokes for different folks...Let
them all rock on and if you don't like them ,then don't listen to them!!but,
PLEASE don't knock them,they had to be good enough at one time or they
would have never made it in the first place!!Peace to all you FREAKS that

SevendustfanJustanothervictim: 5a1 you speak the truth dang it. I must
say though, Celine and Cher should just STOP NOW. Their music doesn't fit
in with the generation we are now. People listen to rock, pop, and rap.
Celine was a great artist the time Titantic came around because we needed
a soothing voice to make us feel like "wow, she can sing." Now though,
she is bashed by critics and has gone done as one of SNL's best character
imitations. Cher just hasn't been the same since sonny skied and hit some
trees. Her career is more dead than original face. I must also say that
STP still rule and that if there was nuclear war/meltdown, three people
would survive: Michael "Molester" Jackson, Cher, and WWF's Chyna.

Bliss. Although Jacko the Wacko was never my cup of tea, I can appreciate
that he was a MONSTER in the world of R&B. But he is a child molester.
If someone accused me of fooling with children, damn straight I would want
my day in court! MJ said "here's 20 (hee-hee-hee) million (uh-ah-ah) dollars
to hush hush (mama say mama sah ma makusa) up, OK." As far as Ozzy, NO
ONE can dispute the mightyness of the mighty Sabbath, or the fine pair
of albums he recorded with the GREAT Randy Rhoads, but that dude is definitely
fried. Fried like pork roll and sausages. His voice is the most heavily
produced on record. It wouldn't surprise me if he lip sings live now. And
the Stones? Their next CD is called "The Stench Of Ben Gay" (props to 5
Against One for the title). And Aerosh*te? I don't possess the language
skills needed to describe how bad they SUCK. G'night now, kiddies.
