I can’t express how jealous I am of you. That would have been off the charts crazy. 

Flew to LA 2007 as I ran a small snowboarding company and was going to make some boards at the LA factory. Rock the Bells was also on - Rage, Wu Tang, cypress hill, murs, brother Ali, nas, roots and more. this was Rage’s big comeback.

I managed to finagle a media pass and was shooting photos between mosh pit and stage. During Wu Tang couches started getting set on fire and the po po deployed pepper spray. All the while everyone was doing the Wu symbol.

it was a crazy crazy crazy night 

got some ripping photos too from right in front of stage including a cracker of morello. 

Not the same of course…

What does it say about our society when there is a Highway To Hell but only a Stairway To Heaven?

I’d rather this thread be opened if we get through to the GF.

However, if the theme is general ‘fire up’ music, nothing beats Sirius.

 

The ultimate song to get things going. In Chicago Bulls fashion we actually played this as our run out song 2 years ago at the 'G.

Speaking of Led Zeppelin, it takes me to "Rock And Roll”. It certainly has been a long time.

It's been a long time since I rock-and-rolled

It's been a long time since I did the Stroll

Umps, let me get it back, let me get it back, let me get it back

mm-baby, where I come from

It's been a long time, been a long time

Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, Flag and Covid time

Tonight's playlist:  Ron Sexsmith -> Ash -> Sufjan Stevens -> Toots & The Maytals.

And here I was thinking I couldn’t possibly hold you in any higher esteem.

I think we can relate to the message in this tune given our irrelevance for the last 57 years (and brought to you with huge dollops of glam, cheese and 80's perms)

 

I can't listen to that song without seeing Dave Chappelle's impression of his white friend, "Chip"

I worked with Wu Tang and The Beastie Boys when I lived in the US. I shot a project with Wu Tang, and it was the first time they’d all been together since ODB’s funeral. So many crazy people in one room, and more baby mama’s than I’d ever seen. Good times. 🤣

Fair dinkum, think you just won the best name drop ever... Had 50 Cent come through Nairobi, but his crew were all pajeros of the 1st order.

FMD I melted down trying to answer this one, I am as just likely to listen to Stephen Sondheim, then park the bus on Joy Division or Pixies or straight to Dead Kennedys or RATM. So I have loosely grouped the music I would listen to on the way to a game or when I want to fire up etc.  

BTW, just quietly, a bit impressed by some of the name checked bands - never thought my fellow D'landers would have Kendrick Lamar, next thing I know people will be quoting Ghostface Killah. I skipped the obvious anthems - AC/DC, H&C not because I don't like them (I love 'em, but everyone owns them too an extent). Would have thought some of the ladies would name check Prodigy, didn't know any women who weren't mad for these guys.

Introspective  / On our history

I'm on Fire - Bruce Springsteen

Hurt - Johnny Cash

Dog Days Are Over - Florence and the Machine - good for when we salute as well i guess.

War Cry / Fire Up

Right Here, Right Now - Fatboy Slim

Call of the Wild - Agoria

anything by RATM but leaning on Take the Power back

Digital - Joy Division

For the Celebration

Can't Hold Us - Macklemore, my son and I would dance like lunatics around the house to this

Beautiful Day - U2 and about 50 of their other songs.

Gang of Youths Magnolia. (Yeah, I'm drunk but I'm ready to kick some f**cat [censored]). Also, their latest release includes a cover of the Elbow song ‘asleep in the back’, so I’ve been listening to Elbow- how did it take so long for me to find them? Build a rocket boys.

The National - Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks, just because it’s been my obsession recently. Not really relevant to our current situation, hopefully a lot of those lines remain so after Friday night.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
