Soda Jerk Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 That was the Rivers in full on beard mode year, n'est pas?That whole weekend was amazing. The rain during Soundtrack of Our Lives was summat else, heaviest festival rain I've ever witnessed. I didn't see Jane's Addiction because I had no idea who they were but I remember being in the Comedy Tent while they were playing. A worthwhile trade, I'd say.Didn't see The White Stripes that year although I did in 2005 when they headlined one of the days. That was pretty good.It was definitely Maldroit era, so technically he should have been fully bearded, but I really don't remember him having one. Infact I still have photos somewhere. Back home I assume. I will prove his 2002 facial hair. Just not any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 The first 4 albums were all pretty damn good in different ways. The last couple were merely OK to my ears.Meg's drumming was primal brilliance. And she has nice boobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBC and Elephant were both immense albums, Get Behind Me Satan was a bit of a blip, but I thought they pulled it back with Icky Thump. Didn't Boobs White do a sex tape a few years back?

Oedo 808 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Any time I saw her drumming she didn't look good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeromiserY Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Who now ?Meg stripe. Makes just as much sense as meg White, if not more so. You can tell jack stripe was the brains of the operation though, with that moustache and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam 45 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Saw em three times. Jack is probably one of best guitar players around, some unreal sounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Boobs White do a sex tape a few years back?You should definitely check out the first two. (maybe you already have but you just don't own them) Both the self titled and De Stijl have been my favourite album of theirs at some point and De Stijl was the first of theirs I really loved all of.And Meg is sexy.

Christy Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Meg White...I'd smash it but I'd need to get over the fact that she looks like Jamesy.OK I'd smash Jamesy tooShe is an awesome drummer too. Absolutely perfect for the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I don't actually think she's hot. I just thought she looked sexy, with her head bopping about, in the second video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltz Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 One of those bands that really got me into the music I am now. Not because of 'scenes' or anything, just as a benchmark for what was a very young man indeed.Oh, also, 'Hello Operator' is still good, okay?

Monster Zero Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 The debut album is a decent start but 'De Stijl' was great, worth it for 'You're Pretty Good Looking For a Girl', 'Hello Operator' and 'Death Letter' alone. Might be worth having a squizz in One Up 2nd hand section, they had most of the earlier albums mighty cheap a while back, some heathen obviously had an ill-advised cull.

Monster Zero Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Superb, never understood how she managed to have her tom at a +45 degree angle though.What the rack tom? Pretty much the angle I have it at. If I have it too upright I just hit the rim all the time.Loads of drummers play the rack tom at an angle. ?( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Zero Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 I still don't see an issue, personal taste innit?Do people nag Peter Hook, 'Oi, Hooky yer bass is a bit too knee bound ye'll put yer back out son' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christy Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 I'm with John W on this one. If you have it near-horizontal it is almost impossible to generate the same level of power with as little effort as when you hit down on it. Never trust drummers with two rack toms, and never trust drummers with one severely-angled rack tom. O, and never trust drummers with heaps of cymbals, obviously. Meg is ace though.
