  2. If he has any 64 or 65 Strats, I wanna be at the head of the line! Not sure about buying and selling but it's by far the best way to find musicians these days, which is wild to me.
  3. Having watched the 2018 stage where Yates cracked live at the time, watching this was pretty amazing.
  4. I knew a girl in LA that was roommates with Jimmy Eat World. She bartended at Barneys Beanery. They were essentially on tour that whole time so I never met them but she said they were pretty awesome guys.
  5. My drummer was a big Modest Mouse guy. Decidedly not my kind of music.
  6. I don't know about that, Times Like These is probably the biggest song for either band
  7. Goddammit I meant Sex Love and Rock and Roll. Fuck
  8. Yeah I don't doubt you, I'm just not familiar with it. Mr. Brightside was everywhere, I still hear it. I also think while a fun song, Monkeywrench is kind of a blip of history relatively speaking. I just actually looked up 2004 songs out of curiosity, Somebody Told Me was a really big song I remember. Slither also dropped from Velvet Revolver that year. That whole era was a pretty big wasteland for me tbh. Social Distortion put out Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell in maybe '05? Audioslave seems about that time as well.
  9. I don't think I've even heard the second one of those.
  10. Those aren't even top Foo Fighters songs.
  11. Eh, I'm not so sure about that. I'm a late Gen X, and the Foo Fighters are still just the new band the drummer from Nirvana started to me. I do agree with the notion that a lot the perception comes down to timing, especially when talking about one's formative years of teendom and early adulthood. I will also allow a lot of my musical opinions where possibly baked earlier than most, in elementary and junior high.
  12. How does this thread have 42 replies
  13. There's no denying he was a serious talent. Rock solid. Also played the solo on Eat It, the zenith of his career imo.
  14. Dude, you guys sound great!
  15. He peaked when he played with Weird Al
  16. Related to this, if anyone wants a Burstbucker 1 pickup, let me know.
  17. So I'm not sure if I posted before about the PAF my old man has had since '72. It came out of an old parts bin at a local music shop here the same time he got the Melody Maker husk I have, during an era when PAFs went bad they were thrown away. So anyways sat in his junk drawer for about 50 years until a couple years ago he gave it to me in hopes someone in the family would eventually fix the fucking thing. I took it to my guy a few months back to diagnose and repair, and in the course of going through parts he had on hand, we just discovered today that one if his old Patent # pickups was essentially identical to my PAF. My initial plan was to put the PAF in the neck, and switch the bridge magnet out with a vintage Patent # one, but since we found that the Patent # is an early which are functionally identical to PAFs, we put both in together. Playing this through the Tremolux, wow, I'm stunned with the sound.
  18. Lowkey best Tele year, 1988. But you have all the usual suspects, 54 Blackguard, late 60's maple cap, etc..
  19. Yeah, it's going to be great. Ziff has been collecting these things since '87. Apparently at one point he had almost 300 bursts!! When I bought my Super Dragon amp I got to speak to Perry Margouleff a bit (he was coordinating the sales), and I got the feeling that this collection had been his biggest work. Good dude btw.
  20. Man it's been that way for years. The CR hasn't got shit on the football board.
  21. Godspeed
