exiledclaseboy said:Aye I looked at the ticket prices earlier. f**k that.
Swansea93 said:I couldn’t believe the prices, they’ll do well to shift them, you’ll probably pick them up for £20 a day or so before.
exiledclaseboy said:Look out Itchy the music police has spoken. :lol:
Itchysphincter said:Motley Crue is probably the most talked about band on here, and now Kiss is a thing?! Genuinely, FFS.
Itchysphincter said:I’m trying to think, is there anyone from that era that’s any good? I know Kiss are technically a seventies act and are like an American T-Tex, Mud, Sweet type novelty act but they aligned themselves with all those 80’s hair farmers like Motley Crue, Jon Bovi, GnR and all those other cheese-fests.
Serious question, has even one of those misogynistic poodle perm bands stood the test of time?
exiledclaseboy said:Well the three you mentioned are still filling stadiums and arenas at extortionate prices so I’d say yes.
Itchysphincter said:Slightly glib, no?
Musically? You think Kiss and Motley Crue stand up musically? GnR may have transcended the era/genre but surely the other two are hype over substance. Serious question, and I had my share of hair metal records in the day, but which one of them can be considered anything but nostalgia at best?
