WOW when did this get pushed to the DB side?

That darn John Turner.

Well if your going to "dress up" for a gig you may as well push the limit.

Ya know, "just when you think you've seen about everything," Mudvayne and Gwarr appear on the DB side of the board.

No wonder we're pariahs!

Ha Ha Ha frying, frying is to good for you, if you look at the above pic you will notice that the drummer has a meat grinder under his set.

See you there.

In terms of plot, the worst movie I've ever seen was one called "Night Breed" - I saw it at about 3 in the morning on Joe Bob Briggs' show. Don't ask me what it was about. I bet even the scriptwriter couldn't tell you that, BUT....every time I see a picture of WETDIRTARTERY, I think of "Night Breed".

Whether that reflects badly on the band or the movie, I couldn't tell you.

Well you can also see that their solitary "fan" has come well-equipped with earplugs - I just hope they were industrial strength!

GENERAL INSTRUCTION would be simplified as GIMME SUM TABZ.

MISCELLANEOUS could simply be called OFF TOPIC, and finally

OFF TOPIC could be changed to POLL: FLEA vs. JWC?



I found that hilariously funny and yet so true at the same time.
This is the first time I've posted in Double Bass land and I've made my analysis that you guys are weird!

Chris - Wasn't that some dumbass movie that couldn't come up with anything less mundane than bats to fill the "monster"/antagonist function?

Actually, about the only thing I can remember about it was that there was some kind of "underground city filled with monsters" kinda thing happening, and that they spent a hell of a lot more money on special effects than they did on the script. Don't remember any bats, though. The special FX were freaky, and the story was completely incoherent. It was like one of those "this is so bad that I'm tempted to laugh" movies, but it was worse than that.
