I wonder if Kip will play the filthy country bar in the trailer park area of South Cheyenne Wyoming Brett played at this year? Maybe Quiet Riot with the drummer left? Nah, Pearcy is my bet, he played some hilarious clubs a few years ago. 18,000 to 167, they all get tramped. Roxy was the hottest Vixen.
Was that the drummer / Petrucci?
Why do you people go to a hard rock webpage and talk shit about bands? What band did you idiots play in? richman I bet you work at McDonalds and listen to Taylor Swift. Winger is a great band.
For your information, he’s the head fry cook at Dairy Queen. I’m his night shift manager. Kirk do we have to love all the bands on this site? Or can we talk shit about some.? Can you give us a list of what bands we can talk shit about and which ones we can’t? Sounds like Winger is off your list of bands we can talk shit about. Which version of Great White, LA Guns, or Queensryche can we talk shit about? Which Dio tribute band can we talk shit about? Do you still have Kip Winger posters on your wall at home? How many Hookers and Blow t-shirts do you currently own, and which one are you wearing right now as you read this?
AHAH. I found the last remaining guy who jerks off while listening to WINGER. For your information, I was in the audience singing along to REMEMBER TOMORROW on IRON MAIDEN S out of print MAIDEN JAPAN EP. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. I listen to Cher and Beyonce and sell dildos. You want one?
DR Thanks for the back up
Anytime Fry Cook
Your words kirk are hurtful and Richman is with a capital R. It deeply saddens me that you are spewing such venom. I am a human being, a son, a brother, a husband, a father and for you to say those things in support of such shit music is the worst part of it. Am I to conclude from your remarks that you would rather jerk off to WINGER than actually fornicate with beautiful young Taylor Swift. Throw out those old cassettes and get yourself an IPOD. Lita Ford is no longer hot. Warrant girl and Tawny as well. If you read my stuff, I just complimented Zakk W. KIRK SIMMS ARE YOU REALLY JACK RUSSELL?
Lita is still hot, hotter than ’77,just don’t talk Runaways reunion. Bobbie Cherry Pie & Tawny imploded,Kip looks great. I listen to my cassette I recorded at the Nassau Coliseum in ’75 of Led Zeppelin. Bands today are washed up, 3 on a bill or indian casinos or Coach Houses. Join Portnoy and his cruise. Ex G n R’s are like a bad circus. I hope Eddie asks Jack if he counts out the leftover 20’s after playing some dive beer joint after his roadies got their Motel 6 & V.I. money or hard hitting questions like “regrouping…’89 line-up?” er “how do you feel?” “Well we’re on a big tour with great response…” zzzzzzz.
Lee, you know I love and respect you dearly, but I’m not sure if Lita is still hot. She’s kinda hot still, but not ‘Hot’ hot. I’m comparing her to ‘Kiss me deadly’ hot. Now that was hot. Totally agree with you on all the other stuff though. I know these guys gotta do this stuff to stay in the industry and make money. But some of this stuff gets annoying and its hard to believe people pay to see it. I didn’t hear Jack last night as I was at the McCartney concert (talk about a guy who puts on a performance). How was Mr. Russell?
