Okay I'm back in black.....First bit of business I want to talk about is a band called Union with ex Kiss member Bruce Kulick and ex Motley Crue member John Corabi. A good friend of mine Mr X hooked me up with Union's albums and I was a bit worried about what I was about to hear to say the least.
I had heard of the band from being a big Kiss fan and huge fan of the time Corabi spent with Motley Crue (I am led to believe I am the only one) but wasn't to hyped to listen to Union, their band logo looks pretty lame, anyway I chucked it on and was blown away.
I still think Corabi has one of the best voices in metal and Kulick is a legend ( he is a lucky man as he has had the great fortune of meeting me and I have the photo to prove it.)
I am not going into the whole bands history because I ain't too sure of it myself but I think they went from 1997 to 2000 so I am only 8 or so years behind.
Anyway if you are stuck in a time warp like me and haven't heard them yet give them a go because there is nothing like getting into a band that you know aren't around any more...sweet.
Although I did read a rumour that Corabi could be the next singer for Velvet Revolver which would be awesome.
One more thing I want to bring up are tribute bands and how much they suck the big one( check out my youtube section). I have seen a couple back in my younger days and I am quite ashamed I put money into these losers pockets. Playing covers in a band is alright it's how you learn but when you go to the extreme of dressing like a band and copying their moves that makes you a sad little turd and yet somewhere near you a guns'n'roses, motley crue or kiss tribute band is playing and getting paid to do so which really sux.
judas...judas...judas...
a female Iron Maiden tribute(mmmm don't mind this one)
C'mon guys spend all that dosh on costumes, fork out for some hair dye.
this next one was under tribute bands...thats the real Kiss...well except for Ace"tommy thayer"frehley.ha ha ha ha
And now Gene and Paul's retirement fund.....
My favourite Mini Kiss...They can stay.
nice boobs paul
and to end on... who hasn't dreamt of a band consisting of metal Elvis, Slash, Nikki Sixx and Peter Criss? I know I have.
Later Citizens.
