Jen, Riley, Kansas 11/25/03
artist: David Lee Roth
Review: David Lee Roth Is an American institution. It's quite pitiful how America seems to hate this guy. The Japanese Have it pretty good these days. Even the british get in on the deal. I miss Dave. Self absorption is the only way to be a true origional. Ask Bob Dylan. I adore this Entertianer (Dave). I Always have. I suppose it's the "happy music" factor that I enjoy the most. I miss music that is light hearted and clever. Personally I would rather go out and party with Dave. The more ornery, and clever the Asshole? The better, louder, and more ubsurd The party gets! Ubsurdity is underrated. This country could also use a lot more buffoonery in my opinion. We could also use a personality upgrade in our Asshole population. They could use someone to look up to. I like to express it this way. Dave is probably the only guy that could cheer me up during the immediate threat of a large scale nuclear event. With that said, I will hand it back to the critics. I will also actively ignore them. (great big cheesy grin)

Review: your full of shit. I just saw blink on their dolla bill tour and they were the most amazing thing ever. ass hole


Kyle, Illinois 11/24/03
artist: Blink182
Review: Blink182's music is about having a good time. There songs are teenage troubles and romance. They are not deep and poetic, but they still remain good songs. If you are into music that is lyricly strong and full of technical guitar and bass playing, dont see blink182 in concert. On the other hand if you are like me and enjoy listening to music with a good melody and driving power chords, DEFINITELY go see blink. Ive seen them numerous times and everytime they get better. Oh yea, and if you are some musical snob only interested in listening to a concert with "direction" or whatever that fuck meant, save your money and go buy some piece of shit jazz cd.

artist: Blink 182
Review: Hi, I've paid my hard-earned money to see Blink 3x in concert. They are fucking awesome. You must be some little bitch who figured out how to make a web site and now thinks he's cool. Don't bash on other people who put out good music. Go dig urself a holw and die in it.

Marshall, Jackson, MS 11/23/03
artist: T Model
Review: I just moved to Mississippi and was workinging in Greenville this week. I went to the Walnut Street Blues Bar and T Model was there. I had never heard of him, but he played and was awesome. Then he let me get up and play my songs and then backup for him. I suck, but he was cool and it was awesome, especially when I came home and looked up his info and found out he was a real bluesman.

Jamee Howie, Indianola, IA 11/22/03
artist: Steven Tyler
Review: I LOVE STEVEN! I'm only 18 yrs old, and I know that there are people out there who have loved Steven much longer than I have, and who are probably more fanatics of him than I, and they probably know a lot more about him than I do. It doesn't matter though...because I LOVE STEVEN. Aerosmith is one of my all time favorite bands. I also love Pink Floyd and The Beatles. I grew up listening to all the great classic rock bands, because that's what my parents and all their friends listened to...and still do. I read Steven's profile and I thought it was so sweet when he said his daughter is his favorite actress. (I'm also a fan of Liv's)
Two years ago my parents took me to see Aerosmith play at Derian Lake. It was absolutely awesome. It couldn't have been better. The best part was when all of a sudden he disappeared and showed up on another smaller stage like 10 feet away from us!!! I have never had the chance to meet Aerosmith, which is probably good, because if I did I would probably faint! I wouldn't know what to say to him. I can't wait to see Aerosmith in concert again. I'm just waiting for the next time they come around. Maybe I'll get the chance to meet them this time. I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!

Review: I saw Liz Phair in Denver tonight, and I'd say she gave the crowd exactly what we wanted. Call it pop, call it selling out, I call it friggin' rock and roll with sex appeal.

Jared, woodstock, GA 11/21/03
artist: blink-182
Review: Blink-182 is awsome, I dont care what you say your whack. Ive gone to a couple of their shows and they were awsome and they always stopped to throw a few comebacks at one another. The people that had grass seats they had the police move aside to let them into the open clear area up front. You need to go to a few more shows of theres before you start talking shit.

artist: misfits
Review: DUDES.. I'm only 19 but i love your music for ages... it all began with the blues, then I saw a guy on television who had a fiend skull tattoo! WOW, it was actually cliff burton (best bass-player ever metallica had). and then I ended up with the misfits... it's actually hard to find original albums of you in Holland, and having no money makes it even harder! so I'm getting to work to get money for original LP's instead of remakes on cd. thank you for the great times. my biggest dream is to see you on stage, maybe you once like to play in europe on stage...? I'll BE THERE!!!

Courtney Lee, Huntington Beach, CA 11/20/03
artist: Blink 182
Review: i think that reveiew is crap. blink is awesome live and it sounds like you are too old to appreciate their music and style. here's a tip, next time you go see a concert go see NSYNC. that way you wont have to complain about how they dont sound good live because they lip sync to their cd.

Review: I think the strokes are a good band. With there own talent. Coming from a background of music I can tell they took a long time with this album. Its genius same sound as the the first one unique sound keep it up.


Meghan Kiernan, Halifax, Ma 11/19/03
artist: blink 182
Review: Every word you said about blink 182 is a lie. They have worked hard to make themselves who they are today and if you cant see that then you obviously should not be writing a review on them. They have been a great band since the day they got together and they didnt work hard just to be given a horrible prejediced review like the one I found on your site. I clicked on here to see some good pictures of Blink 182 not to feel pissed off because you have no clue what you are talking about. I dont intend to ever come here again.


Jim Kelly, LA 11/19/03
Review: Kudos to the Ciurmudgeon. it's about time somebody exposes these musical rapists!

Review: Kurt Cobain was an overrated loser who made his money by making teens miserable and encouraging them not to bathe. Grunge was a JOKE.


Brittany 11/19/03

Patti 11/18/03
artist: Moody Blues
Review: Thought I'd check out your review of the Moody Blues show, seems you've saved me some time and Money. I found it quite interesting how you blamed their lackluster performance on their age.....c'mon now, that has nothing to do with it. I've seen alot of younger bands give less than stellar shows. Alot of the classic rockers could show those younger bands a thing or two. Show some respect young man.....or, go to your room!


Paula, Houston, TX 11/18/03
artist: Rolling Stones
Review: I must say, I'm also disappointed when I hear about artists that sign these exclusive deals with big retailers. Do the Stones really need MORE money?
I can somewhat understand the Christina & Justin release deal with Target. They were touring together and it worked in as something that could help promote their tour. My guess is that given primo floor space for displays and room for plenty of well stocked CD's, they might have entered into an agreement with Target for $1. It's a win for both sides.
The Stones arrangement just smacks of nothing but greed to me. Their most recent concert in Houston had tickets in the nosebleed section of a football stadium for over $50 plus service charges. The best tickets on the floor were over $700.
As a comparison, Bruce Springsteens tickets were $75 each, for any seat in the house. If you were one of the lucky ones that got some of the first tickets, some of us regular schmoes with a couple of C notes could get a pair of seats in the front rows.
Comparable seats for the Stones would have cost closer to $2K. What's the problem? Didn't the Stones save enough for retirement? Keith Richards got an estimate on how much plastic surgery would cost to make him look like something other than a cross between a corpse and an old leather handbag? Mick's behind on all his child support payments to all the different mommies? Give me an effin' break!
