Fat bottom Girls dropped

Personally, I've always thought that if there are voluntary programs, apps, services, or whatever that give parents more options and tools for their families, that's generally a win/win and will hopefully stave off any political appetite there might be for government censorship. Of course, practically speaking, even private options and tools are going to be of limited benefit once kids reach the age when they're actively seeking out certain content and are more tech savvy than their parents.

 

Mods - I'd like to report this post as offensive, nay - reprehensible, to every red blooded American over the age of 45. Please ban this poster immediately.

 

IMO 5150 was a good album and some of their later stuff sounds good as a production matter (clean, good sound design, big 3-D soundstage, etc.) but they were clearly down the corporate schlock rock tunnel. Nothing in the Van Hagar catalog holds a candle to Fair Warning IMO. That album is a raw, aggressive classic, even if it wasn’t a great seller

 

First time I can recall seeing a Violent Femmes reference on too hot. Well done!

First heard VF in 1986 when I was 17. A friend of mine (who was 14) introduced me to them. I pretty clearly remember the day at his parents house, though it wasn't Blister in the Sun that I heard first, it was Add it Up..."why can't I get just one ****"

Not a fan of music censorship. I get the want and concern but juveniles have been doing all sorts of things their parents don't want them to. Story as old as time.

Also a tendency of parents to fool themselves about it (and to forget their own childhood) in a "oh, not my little johnny, he would never do such a thing" sort of way.

 

This thread is meaningless without pics…and not of Freddy or the rest of the band!

 

This was an industry decision though.
I think a good one.

What age? No idea, but even the music platform found it inappropriate for young kids.

I never asked for it to be removed from spotify for instance. My kids all have spotify.

Applauding removal from a kids platform is miles away from restricting artists.

 

But Mutz, Literally the worst approach to parenting posible is a parent who says, oh well... I did it so they will do it too.

Part of our jobs is helping them avoid some of our stupidity... And man do I have a lot of work, because I was all kinds of stupid.

 

He's the Red Rocker man! He doesnt do martial arts on stage but the dude was the perfect fit for EVH's crunchy sound on those albums and his voice blends better with Michael Anthony.

He has cooler hair too.

Quick story. My HS girlfriend and I were coming off of Venice Beach Fl one night on our way back to her house. We pull up behind a red Corvette with "OU812" on the plate. I looked at her and said "nah, cant be". Pulled up beside and kept staring at the blacked out windows. Just before the light changed the window rolls half way down. All you see are red curls and round John Lennon glasses nodding back at us as if to say "yep! Its me!" Light turned green and that Vette was gone into the Florida night.

Sammy rules!

 

This is Rock-N-Roll sacrilege. Long live David Lee Roth!!!

 

You're dead to me

 

The late 80's and early 90's were my HS years Roth was solo by then. Yankee Rose was a great song. The stuff Roth did with Steve Via was insanely underrated.

 

That would have been at the Whitesnake concert on my 18th birthday in Ft Myers.
Her and Steve Vai's wife sat stage right. They had directors chairs marked "Mrs Coverdale" and "Mrs Vai".

I was with the same girl that night as the Hagar encounter. She wasnt thrilled at how...um... distracting Tawny (RIP ) was to me.

 

Cmon man. We need the Best of Both Worlds. Right Now.

 

Oh, I hear you, PT. Didn't mean to suggest that parents don't parent, just that even "good kids" will do hella lotta things their parents don't want them doing, lest they be kept in cages. I'm sure your parents probably don't know a lot things that you did that they didn't want you doing.

But don't worry, parents aren't special in fooling themselves, though maybe it's more acute wrt to their offspring. It's a human thing. Nature of the psychological beast. We all do it.

 

David is arguably the greatest rock showman of my generation. He is up there with Steven Tyler in that quirky eccentric regard.

However if Im just listening through a walkman back in the day, Sammy was the king.

 

Lol. No, my parents do and did not lol.
