Bands you wish were still together.

[Mirren]

I wish Switchblade Symphony were still together. This album is sounding so fucking good.

[mmmcherry]

booti dharma *cries* my absolute favorite local vancouver band... such awesome guys... i was SO sad when i heard they broke up

[Amelia G]

I'd like to take this opp to spend some of my cool points and say GNR.

[VoldtaEngler]

pink floyd, front 242, original misfits,

[drewblood]

Alice in Chains

[Morning Glory]

none really. I guess I respect the choices of the people in the bands I like, more then my desire to want to be entertained.

[Mindgames]

If you ask Axel, they still ARE. OK, they're called "Axel Rose's Guns'n'Roses" and keep session guitarists in beer a few times a year, but he seems to think he's still out there. Last time we crossed paths though, the only thing 'out there' was his beer belly.

Pink Floyd are still together as well, just not planning on making any music - Live 8 attests to that. You can't write lyrics when you have to spend your time picking which of your planes you'll use to visit your 3rd-best castle for the weekend.

Me.. well I can say Nirvana with reasonable certainty they're not about to put out a DVD, I'll throw in Death By Milkfloat (cos $5 says I'm the only guy who saw them play and lived), and confuse 5000 teenagers and say "Slipknot"...

C + C Music Factory.... No wait!, that's the group I hope I never hear again. Sorry.


Here they are:
White Zombie
Siouxie & the Banshees
Pantara
Spaceman 3

There are a bunch more bands that I'd name that are still together, but don't have all original members.

[Anarkey]

in 1990 there was a local band here named UncleNucklefunk ,,wish they were back together ,they disbanded in 1996 ..

Note in 1990 they lost a battle of the bands to.... Kidrock !..in my opinion he suxd..

[malcolm]

im gonna say I wish black flag was stil together with henry as frontman again-ive got a complation of all the other frontmen they had and i gotta say-he was the best in my book.

[mmmcherry]

yeah i was gonna say rymes with orange too, from van, another AMAZINGLY FUN band i used to go see allll the time... theyre still together but i kinda wish i could just see one more show with the rymes that I know... lyndon, rob, trevor, kevin and steeve. (thats right... steeve... neat spelling )
i was so influenced by that band that "lyndon" im stealin for mah babys name hehee!

[Bondage Clown]

Green Apple Quickstep, 4 non-blondes, Pantera (cause Dime-bag did not deserve to die), Blind Melon (Another casualty of Drugs)

[HeadlessBill]

ABBA, no, I mean the Spice Girls, um, phooey.

Actually, looking through my CD collection, I'd have to say the Talking Heads or the Eurythmics. I have a large number of soloists, not many groups.

[Black Spiral Dancer]

I'd like to take this opp to spend some of my cool points and say GNR.

Apparently, they are reforming.

[Morning Glory]

I really don't see what's so special about guns and roses, they seem like a second rate bon jovi to me.

[Vitorro]

Queen with Freddy Mercury.... Paul Rogers is ok, but definately not Freddy.

[Mirren]

Yeah, it was odd for Paul Rodgers to be working with Queen. It was unexpected to me. I enjoy Free & Bad Company though, with Paul Rodgers. He has a beautiful voice but he is no Freddie Mercury.

[GnArKiLL]

Operation ivy, hey i can dream....

or Common rider at least

Easy! Those are fightin' words...

It's one of those things that if you need it explained to you, you probably wouldn't get it anyways.

Mr. Brownstone!

[inox]

The Smiths

ok, guess I just don't get why a racist that beats women is worth listening to.

Oh geez, give me a break with your PC bullshit. Prove it then, lets see some evidence. You try to come off like your so morally superior with your never ending political correctness.

[Anarkey]

well one band i do like is back Alan Parsons Project .
was checkin out there old site and they got new stuff up .

[Mr Karl]

Venom

[Morning Glory]

Oh geez, give me a break with your PC bullshit. Prove it then, lets see some evidence. You try to come off like your so morally superior with your never ending political correctness.

yeah, that's right, just go ahead and acuse me of being a crazy liberal. It's so much easier than attempting to prove that you have a point.. or do you at all? A woman divorces her husband because she says he hits her, and you take his side. That same guy tries to justify that it's ok to use the words "******" and "faggot" because he's being ironic, and you say, people are just too sensitive these days. So I don't really care how you try and demonize me, you're not a woman or a minority and I'm going to take thier side over a spoiled rock star. Fuck you if you have a problem with it, I don't care. How's that for PC?

[Bondage Clown]

Strypper... Rofl

[Mr Karl]

Strypper... Rofl

weren't they the guys with the bibles?

[Mirren]

Heheh Stryper..."Together as one" was a good song though! Remember Odin?

[Oil~Boy 26]

Janes Addicition thay did a lot of great songs even Porno for Pyros would be great to see again

OB~26

Tru dat.. I haven't really liked anything Perry Ferrell has done since then.
especially his attempt at Dj'ing.. and his choice in women is off too. Teaching a rockstar's girlfriend how to pee outdoors will be a story i can tell my grandkids for sure.

Trying to demonize you?. What the fuck ever, man. I was saying your wrong and judgmental.

My point was that you just labeled and acused him of a bunch of shit without any basis. You can't prove your claims either. The instances you mentioned above are words he used in song lyrics. You failed to mention Axl flat out denies that's he's a racist. If somebody says they aren't a racist I would tend to believe them. I suppose that wouldn't be good enough for you since you set such a shining example for everyone. I guess by your moral authority people are not allowed to make mistakes or change, huh?

What about him playing live with Elton John? He also is a huge fan of Queen. Hmmm... doesn't sound like that big of a homophobe to me.

This might change your mind about him... He's a VICTIM! He had a crumby violent poor childhood!

Things are not as black and white as you may think.

[Bondage Clown]

Oh and what about Those really Hip guys...

Big Bopper
Richie Valens
Buddy Holly

[Mirren]

If you were racist I doubt you'd have a half black jewish man playing guitar in your band. Saul Hudson aka Slash. Sometimes you just have to look at things with rationality and common sense.

[Morning Glory]

Well, OK, fine, even if you want to dismiss these things, the band broke up because everyone thought he was an asshole and didn't want to have anything to do with him. The levels of irresponsible destructive behavior and exploitation of women are well documented among members of this band. The same could be said for nearly every other big rock band, and I don't have any respect for them either. I don't feel that they really do anything positive and playing good music isn't an excuse for being a bad person. It's not fair to offer criticism of every other "uncool" person that exhibits the same behavior and then praise it in the music industry.

[sheramil]

jack off jill

heh. i'm certain, one day, Mr Warner will have exhausted all of his other options and will bring this one back.

me, i'd like to see the Cocteau Twins back together - even if they hate each other - and Melbourne Band This Is Serious Mum (TISM).

[TheQuietPlace]

AT THE GATES! Fuckin' A.

[Toe Cutter]

I asked for one shred of evidence to support your accusation and you couldn't prove it.

Because your perfect right?

It's not fair to offer criticism of every other "uncool" person that exhibits the same behavior and then praise it in the music industry.

All of the greats rockers were groupy-fucking bastards. Let me get this straight, since they were a bunch swines to women you don't listen to Zep, Ozzy, Stones, Iggy, Bowie, Morrison, Lemmy or any other huge group because in your opinion they are slimy guys? Is that right? Well, I was looking at some of the groups you listen to and Vegan Reich is totally homophobic and pro-life? I've read some interviews and the lead singer sounds like a fucking terrorist/fascist. You still listen to them right? I'm not saying I think treating woman like shit is okay, I don't, but jesus christ why is everything an issue of injustice with you? I wish I was a 'woman or a minority' maybe then you'd be a little more openmided and realistic.

This is exactly why I stoped going to hardcore shows. The vegan hardcore scene if so full of that self-righteous bullshit it makes me want to puke! It's like walking on eggshells trying not to offend those fucking guys. They are to serious for my taste.

It's sad I'm fucking defending Axl fucking rose, it was not my intention, but it's more the principal of the matter I guess.

Dude, I'm sure you hate my fucking guts. Sorry, but I disagree with you.

[mmmcherry]

axl rose likes to piss people off i think. some people like doing that. it doesnt mean theyre ACTUALLY gonna go out and do whatever they say in their songs.
