TheCyberdemon Posted September 20, 2004 Report Posted September 20, 2004 During my first experience, everyone says I was yelling at people and blaming stupid stuff I did on "The Commies". Naturally, I had to ask: "You sure I was high?"
MarcM Posted September 20, 2004 Report Posted September 20, 2004 The Fabulous Thunderbirds were very boring live. Might as well have been mannequins with speakers in their stomachs.
Danielj Posted September 20, 2004 Report Posted September 20, 2004 I have heard that Steppenwolf play but thats it.
_jr_ Posted September 21, 2004 Report Posted September 21, 2004 The Fabulous Thunderbirds were very boring live. Might as well have been mannequins with speakers in their stomachs. I saw them open for Stevie Ray Vaughan. They weren't bad, I suppose. Of course, anyone playing opposite SRV would be a pale comparison, anyway. Jimmy did come out and do a few tunes with his baby brother, though. I miss Stevie Ray
windy1 Posted September 21, 2004 Report Posted September 21, 2004 Same thing here. I saw Kenny Wayne Shepard open for the Stones. It was sad. Of course they were playing the Edward Jones Dome, and I think they didn't have the equipment or stage presence to do a good job.
Elvish Posted September 22, 2004 Report Posted September 22, 2004 Kenny Wayne Shepard. . . I think they didn't have the equipment or stage presence to do a good job. Hey, Windy - what year did they tour with the Stones? I saw them at a tiny club and they were rockin'!
Batman Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 I don't like Hendrix live. He goes for speed rather than just play like he usually does, and becomes sloppy, and he's not a great singer. Also, he was probably taking LSD before going onstage
Batman Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 yes probably, he could have been taking it while actually onstage. There are those rumors about soaking his headband in LSD, and then cutting up his eyebrows, and letting it seep into his bloodstream. Whew! Was that a good save or what!
Danielj Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 I agree with Batman. I don't like Jimi Live. I mean, I would still want to be there, but he puts so much distortion in it, You can barely make it out. And he always has his eyes closed so he misses sometimes. He still wouldn't be the worst live.
edna Posted September 26, 2004 Report Posted September 26, 2004 I agree with both of you, Jimi live is quite irritating for me, though I was a Hendrix fan in the 70s and I saw plenty of movies of him live. I also liked very much King Crimson but when I went to their concert I was wishing they´d finish asap... they were so boring! And a surprise for me, Dire Straits, my favorite band by then (1980) did a never-ending concert in Madrid, Spain. Extremely boring too. I saw them another time and I must say they I prefer their songs on the album, comfortably laying on my couch.
TheCyberdemon Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 Batman, that's physically impossible to do. Where ever you heard that, is lieing their/it's a** off. When you're bleeding there's no way it could seek in, because your body is trying to PUSH OUT substances.
_jr_ Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 Is it possible to soak a headband in LSD? I mean, do you grab a bucket of LSD and dunk your headband in it? If so, wouldn't it just soak into your pores? What would the need be in cutting yourself? Just being literal for a moment.
scott Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 Actually the story goes that he would put heroin in the headband, and then as the show went on he would sweat, and then the heroin would absorb into his skin.
DiggsUK Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 If he absorbed heroin into his head, he would fall asleep surely, after a short period of not really caring what he played. If he absorbed an uncontrollable quantity of LSD into his head, he would at best not be able to think straight for more than a split second at a time then fall over, and at worst go into such a state of meltdown that his brain would overload, his organs would shut down and he would die a horrible death. Urban myths, methinks. Now, a lager-soaked headband would be a different matter. He would almost certainly survive this with nothing worse than a smelly head. Regards

When you're bleeding there's no way it could seek in, because your body is trying to PUSH OUT substances. Come to think of it, its the same guy who told me today that Freddie Mercury had to have 3 gallons of semen pumped from his stomach. He seems uneducated in music, but I also saw the Hendrix thing in Rolling Stone. I guess you are right about the bleeding thing though.
TheCyberdemon Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 You were questioning me? Grr.
MindCrime Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 Actually, it is possible to absorb LSD into blood, that's one of the more common ways of doing it, but not on an open sore. It needs to be injected into the vein line in order to tranquil the brain cells & nervous system. I agree with Diggs about using Heroin on stage, seems rather unlikely.
MindCrime Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 Freddie Mercury had to have 3 gallons of semen pumped from his stomach. Gawd! what a flaming fruit-loop
Aunt_Acid Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 That is the most digusting thing I have ever heard.
DiggsUK Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 What human has a 3 gallon stomach? Mr Mercury may have enjoyed the odd toke on the pink spliff, but could not have held that much, surely. Unless of course it was a career total! Regards
MindCrime Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 odd toke on the pink spliff Hardy Har Ha!
DiggsUK Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 Its either that or a tune on the purple oboe! Regards
