Heavy Metal?
« on: July 19, 2016, 09:54:52 pm »
Is there no heavy metal thread for us heavy metal conservatives? There should be since there are a lot of conservative leaning heavy metal singers and band members.

I'm not usually a fan of covers but this one is a great cover of a 1970s tune by some guys who love our military and veterans.

We have been failing not having a thread like this. I'm all in (I've actually had a couple of photos published in Metal Hammer magazine).

Not my kind of music but I used to work in a bindery with the lead singer (Todd Cushman) back in the early 90s in Jackson Mi..
Super polite and nice guy. Very intelligent guy. We used to talk about science and science fiction a lot.

Dio is a God.

Hands down THE single greatest metal singer of all time. The only one who should even be allowed to whisper his name is Bruce Dickenson.

Metal Singers generally aren't known as vocalists but there are a few true greats.

Hard to argue with Dio as the greatest metal vocalist ever.

I assume Tool qualifies as metal still...right?  Love the band, but not always a fan of Keenan's vocals, though.  Go figure.  Plus, he's a big left-winger, whereas metal acts are more likely than others to be conservative.

Could listen to Carey's drumming all day.  The bridge that begins at 4:35-4:40 is just stuff you don't hear in a lot of metal.

heh -- Hard not to smile at AC/DC.  And Angus Young never had a drop of alcohol in his life.  Dude must have drunk a lot of coffee, though....

Angus was a pro. After swapping guitars he tunes that one while he's playing.

Rob Halford may be queerer than a $3 bill but the guy can sing. One of those bands I saw multiple times in my youth.

Do you remember the Super Hero TV series Nightman?

https://youtu.be/i5LhB2X0cuA

It had to have been made by musicians. Too many inside jokes.

The super stud crime fighter was filthy rich like Bruce Wayne but he supported his hobby by playing dinner jazz sax.

If he got the call to put on the Hero Suit and battle crooks during a performance, he replaced himself on stage with a hologram, and the diners never knew the difference. OUCH!

The show was Canadian.

In his private office, on the bookshelves, among his proudly displayed treasures was a Canadian made Traynor 50 watt bass amp head, which a sax player would have almost no use for.

I know amplifiers inside and out having rebuilt and restored every vintage guitar and bass amp every made, Fender, Marshall, Orange, Vox etc. and that particular amp is a guitar players dream. They're built like a tank with an old tweed bassman preamp, 2 EL34 output tubes and massive, heavy duty overkill Hammond transformers that must have cost Ric Traynor a bundle even back in the 70s. All hard wired, no PC boards.

Holograms indeed.

And the dinner jazz crowd over their $50 plates of pasta never knew the difference.
