Best Year Ever?

[CCTAU]

You shut your dirty, hoorish mouf.  I like my women just a little on the trashy side.

A "CR" masterpiece!

[GH2001]

I agree 100%.  It was the end of my middle school days, and the beginning of high scool.  I still love the music from that time.  Generation X at its finest.

I got to experience Pearl Jam and Nirvana at full fledged High School age and looking back, it was awesome. I would hate to be a HS Sr now with the choice of music out there now.

Hey kids, when I was in HS in 2014 we had Lady Gaga and Kesha. Oh, yes, good times indeed. They were so awesome. NOT

[bgreene]

No such thing.

Don't be mad because you were labeled a "baby boomer".

[CCTAU]

Grunge rock sucked then and it sucks now.

Diamond Rio, Little Texas, Blackhawk - some of the worst crap my ears have ever heard.

You came of age in the early 80's disco/ mid late 80s hair metal eras didnt you?

I bet you did hate Alternative. Pearl Jam was as solid as it got brother. Now, don't you have some high black socks to put on and a lawn to water?

I saw pj at the bjcc on the yield tour in 1998.  Great show (several songs on the live on two legs album from that show) but it was not what i expected.  Four large candle stands, chairs where general addmission should have been.  Kinda like the Eagles reunion tour.  Very subdued.

There was a pic floating around here years back of him in full disco (aka prom) attire. Twas classic.

Wasn't a big fan of any of these although Diamond Rio had some killer vocals.  As for Blackhawk, Henry Paul was the lead singer and former front man for the Outlaws.  If you want to find some really good, but not real well known music, pull up some of his stuff from Henry Paul Band.  Kind of a cross between southern rock and country, pre-Blackhawk days.

1994 on the other hand brought us great country classics like. "I'm an Indian outlaw......half Cherokee and Choctaw...My baby she's a Chippewa....she's a one of a kind!"

God Bless Texsa was a classic.

Any time the Cowboy cheerleaders are doing Rocket kicks, life is good.

I hated the karma Kameleon genre. And disco was a weird offshoot of music.

But we were still in the throws of 70's rock and roll. Southern rock. And then came along Metal.

Our music was about the party. If we wanted our music to save the world, we listened to Rush.There was no "I hate my mommy" bullshit.

Yes. Some bands of the 90's were a bit creative, but the grunge, dark shadow, psychotic bullshit that started at that time was major suckage.

Very few bands created music more than 3 minutes long. Even my high school senior son prefers 70s, 80's rock to the new stuff. You need to watch Eddie and the Cruisers II. Eddie explains all of this...

[WiregrassTiger]

Don't worry. Be Happy.

The actual South Fork house is very tiny.

When Soundgarden was the 1st grunge band in the late 80s (yes before Nirvana and PJ and Alice), it was a totally raw response to the bullshit, fake assed hair bands that had saturated music. If you listen to the actual music in the alternative genre, it had a closer resemblence to Black Sabbath and Led Zepp than most of the cheesy 80s stuff. Fact is most rock n roll was dark and grungy from the 70s on. It is what it is.

And if you read a lot of the back stories behind the "I hate my parents" attitude, you'd see those guys were pretty justified. Some of them had some pretty shitty dads who did some pretty atrocious shit to them. It was their outlet I guess.

Eddie and the Cruisers.....good stuff. I bet you have Beaver Brown Band on 8 track.

Louder Than Love still their best album.
