    What Concert Video are you listening to?

    Really enjoying this concert of Rick Wakeman performing "The Six Wives of Henry VIII" with a full orchestra and choir! Brings back fond memories of playing along with this and his other records when I was learning to play drums and I wanted to work on my ability to quickly memorize songs. My...

    Turntable action

    Here's a frequency response and THD chart a hardcore hobbyist in Italy made and presented in his video review of a Benz cartridge. As you can see, the frequency response is pretty smooth, but not exactly flat. There is a max in the range from 50Hz to 150Hz and a 2dB valley between 2kHz and...

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    This is a child musician worthy of praise on the internet!

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    But, I really didn't like it. I am only analyzing what I think they were attempting to do and to point out that I don't believe I was their intended audience.

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    Much like Hole, the name suggested to me that they were an aggressively militant feminist band, so everything I saw I presumed was intended to make a statement about the unacceptable sexualization of women.

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    Maybe I didn't get it, but I didn't think they were trying to be sexy to men but to mock the sexualization of women in society by specifically NOT being sexy while appearing to do things which should be sexy. See, art is in the eyes of the beholder.

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    By the way, this complaint applies to child musicians on the internet as well - as long as the child isn't performing on a professional level. I consider it borderline child abuse to tell them they are amazing musicians when they actually haven't learned, practiced, or experienced enough to...

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    Look, I didn't like Thunderpussy, but at least they are trying to create unique "art" which is their's alone. Clearly they are aimed at extreme hardcore feminist anger management candidates, which isn't my scene, but it is highly commendable of them. At least they aren't cheap Chinese knockoffs...

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    To note... those photos were added to show examples of how much the original hair bands looked like young vixens eager to blow a rock star.

    Stop calling subpar musicians "Bad Ass" just because they are female!!!

    Well, it finally happened. While I was mildly irritated by people on Social Media posting videos of girl metal bands and calling them "BAD ASS" or "KICK ASS" or "ROCKIN' ASS" or some form of ass being used to mean really rocking their instruments and music, there has been a substantial increase...

    New music from 3 former members of Jellyfish!

    That is the inside joke. Every time I post about any music which could remotely be called Prog Rock, my buddy @Towen7 says "Prog rock sucks." Since this is power pop, he appears to have chosen instead to take the brilliantly subtle approach of pointing out the song is more than 3 minutes long...

    Facts are facts. Just don't drag me into a fight with strangers. The statements you quoted are bad acoustic theory and fail to account for how humans hear sound and interpret it.

    New music from 3 former members of Jellyfish!

    The Lickerish Quartet is releasing an EP soon and the initial single is pretty damned good! I cannot wait! They intentionally were trying recapture the style and feel of a band who would have been "influential" about 35 years ago. In an interview I heard on the radio band leader Roger Joseph...

    I'm frustrated that the baddie in Picard looks identical to Spock in Star Trek: Discovery.

    What are you watching via streaming?

    Because... marketing! They need a new audience who is young and will stick with them while Disney + tries to drive them away.

    Is it finally time to declare the Rock and Roll era over?

    Yet another exhibit that Rock is dead - Here's a group of extremely talented musicians dedicated to perfectly recreating the music of the Beatles performing to a bunch of people who likely bought this album the day it was released. They are incredibly good at imitating the sound and...

    Star Trek: Picard

    I am not disagreeing with that assessment... but again, may I direct you to every single Star Trek TV series prior to Picard as evidence that this assessment applies to all of them.
