Thunderbird Club

:(Not getting them either. :bawl:
I wonder if the on-going post frenzy in this club and the Spector club have finally crashed the system.:dead:
It's gotta be that, or possibly the website software also :sour: :bored::rollno::***::vomit::rage::mad:hates Kiss.:whistle:

You blaming this guy?

Exactly! I came to this realization back in the early 80's while reading an interview with Kerry King (Slayer) where he railed against the lesser heavy bands at the time, throwing the "poser" tag around a lot and then I looked at the photo they had to go along with the interview of him making a growling face and fist at the camera with his wrist-to-elbow armband loaded with nails and it hit me that he was just as much a "poser" as those he was trying to insult, only difference was choice of accouterments.
He's well known for being an opinionated jackass, so at least he's consistent. I've always thought Slayer sucked, but I'll give 'em credit for doing what they do and sticking to it their whole career. That's pretty gutsy not to evolve or change direction for 30 years.

It is a risk both ways - keep doing the same thing over and over and your fans get bored and abandon you. Evolve musically and your fans will say you sold out and abandon you. Choose a path and figure out how to keep and/or add fans.
 
True that. I had a '68 Triumph Spitfire. Lucas electronics were it's Achilles heel.
That and the rear differential. And the interior. And the convertible top. And the rust prone body.
But even with all that baggage I'd still take a nice clean one at a good price in a heartbeat. Same for it's bigger brother the TR6 - In bright red of course...
