Civil War: This is one of those movies that I walked out not really knowing if I liked it or not, but it certainly made me think and stuck in my head. The film is a bit different from what the...

I was watching it on and off this afternoon. I won a bit of money in a Masters Pool and a bit in Fanduel Fantasy golf as well, so a good day.

Yup, agree with you on all counts.

Resident Alien Season 3 - Sci Fi / Hulu: Although I loved the initial season of this series, I thought season 2 was not at the same level. For the most part season 3 redeemed itself and I enjoyed...

They are coming to my home town this summer. I was not familiar with them, but may have to check into them based on your review.

Agree a good one for sure.

3 Body Problem Season One – Netflix: I had high hopes for this one as it was created by the same team who did “Game Of Thrones”. The series is based on a trilogy of books that I have not read, so...

I finally did 23 & Me. All Welsh, German & Irish. My mother’s side of the family were coal miners who came to the American south to work the coal mines (my mother was born in a coal camp that no...

I honestly think their new one ranks right up with the best they have ever done. I have always found Saxon to be very inconsistent over the years. They have written some great stuff, but have also...

I always find it interesting that most of the best movie adaptations of Kings works have been the non-horror stuff. "Stand By Me" is a great film.

Interesting.

The Gary Peterson Guess Who is playing a show near me this summer. I have not seen anything about a cancellation.

I would be interested in this tour if it came close to me.

I know this is an old thread, but I just kind of discovered these guys. Great stuff. As others mention, very derivative of Rush, with Zep, Greta and others in the mix as well. It will be...

I thought the same thing. That is a big ass venue.

I have not heard it in bars, but at sporting events in Michigan it is played at pretty much every game.

:up

Curious if anyone out there has seen April Wine since Myles Goodwyn’s death last year? The reason I ask is that the current version of the band is doing a show near me this summer. The tickets are...

We just started “3 Body Problem” last night. 3 episodes in and I am really digging it.

Just finished:

Horseshoes & Hand Grenades: Tales From The Other Motley Crue Front Man And Journeys Through A life In And Out Of Rock N Roll by John Corabi: This is an interesting autobiography...

RIP Joe Flahrety original cast member of SCTV and many movies and TV shows.

Tigers sweep the Chi-Sox for a 3-0 start. Can't say I saw that coming.

Dune Part II: For the most part a fantastic movie. I read the Dune books back when I was a kid and part II basically followed the plot of the 2nd half of the original book. The cinematography,...

Agree, very enjoyable documentary. Like you, I was not much of a fan of most of the artists on the record, but it was still very interesting stuff.

Just finished:

Starry Messenger – Cosmic Perspectives On Civilization by Neil deGrasse Tyson: I have enjoyed seeing Tyson on various talk shows and other programs over the years, but had never...

:D

Green grew up in Saginaw Michigan and played college ball at Michigan State so he is very well known in these parts. In college he always had a tendency toward this kind of behavior, but MSU coach...

I had not heard that about Phillips. Do you know the story behind it?

I have seen Styx quite a few times over the years and never had the impression that they used backing tracks (although I can’t say that for certain). They have always been a great vocal band all...

I saw it and pretty much agree. It was pretty bad. They also made "The Mist" into a mini-series. That one was better.

Just curious, did you ever hear the Ozzy re-union album "13"? I thought it was a really solid effort.

I actually like Rogan as an interviewer. I don’t agree with him on many things, especially his take on vaccines, and I don’t like all of his podcasts, but he sometimes gets some very interesting...

We just finished season 2 last night. Not sure if I am going to continue. I am not a fan of Rom Coms and as this show goes along the Rom Com cliché’s continue to ramp up. At times I almost feel...

Great insight. Thanks for posting.

When we were down in Florida our friend’s turned us on to the 90’s series “Northern Exposure”. I remember hearing good things about it back in the day and we even visited the town of Talkeetna in...

Apparently the ship knew it had a problem and had alerted someone on land who was able to close the bridge down to traffic. Everyone who lost their lives were construction workers working on the...

I agree that the price point for this seems to be a bit high. I am still going to get it as I am a big fan of this era, but I wonder how many people will pass on it with the price. If you have...

Stub Hub are all re-sale tickets, so that is not the original price. Any idea what the original price was for that seat?

7th Star is a great album. I never owned it until they did the re-issue 2 disc addition a while back and it was a pleasant surprise.

True, it seems like every other building in the downtown was a bank. They had a pretty good reputation for harboring cocaine money back in the day too, although I don't if that is still the case.

Same here. I can't think of anything he has been in that I enjoyed much.

We saw it in the theater as my wife wanted to see it. I had pretty much the same reaction. Not terrible, but not great either and rather pointless.

I never warmed to the X-Files that much. Not sure why, but I tried with it.

:up

Agree, with everything you say. I came to H & H through Ronnie's work in Rainbow and was the first Sabbath album I owned, so it still holds a special place with me. Mob Rules had some great...

I never really noticed that before, but now that you have pointed it out it is pretty obvious that they do that a lot. Interesting.........

I have enjoyed reading all of the Big Ears reviews. Much of the music featured at this event is not really my cup of tea, but I would have been interested in seeing some of the artists. I may have...

My first time seeing Sabbath was on the “Born Again” tour. Gillan certainly did his share of screaming during that show.

Regarding Hughes, I remember he discussed why he did not play bass in...

I went to Grand Cayman once many years ago. We went around quite a bit of the island and to me it appeared to be one of the most well-off islands I visited. Everything was clean, modern, and just...

I watched that live yesterday. Red Wings trying to hang in for a wildcard spot, but have not been playing well lately.

I have it and think all of the albums sound great, some of them improved quite a bit.

Southwest Michigan has become a bit of a bluegrass breeding ground in the last decade. Billy Strings is from Muir Michigan, about an hour from where I live, and has become huge. Green Sky Bluegrass...

I was big into both the movie and the TV series back in the day. Have not watched either in years though.

I have been to many islands in the Caribbean, but never Jamacia, so I was kind of looking forward to checking it out, but I have heard other stories like yours from people who have been there, so...

Yes, now that I think about it those first few albums are not recorded that well. It has been a long time since I listened to them.

I also pretty much lost interest in the band from "Out Of The...

I need to see both of these.

Yup, sorry I am getting my albums mixed up.

That is most likely the case then. They are very good at re-producing the studio sound for sure.
