diablo175 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Good tune and interesting video. Doug is sounding (and playing) in good form, as always. But damn, he's getting up there in age. Hope I'm still rockin' like him at 68! Met him up close and personal at a King's X show a few summers back; at what was the Wilm. DE World Cafe Live (is now the Queen) We were coming back from the merch. table w/ t-shirts when he came strolling down the hall, headed for the head. My buddy and I said "hi" and we chatted oh-so-briefly. Heck of nice guy but looks like he'd topple over in a strong wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the man still has it. He doesn't strike me as one of those clowns who's both past his prime (and sounds like it) and cashing in on his former glory, crawling along to a few more paydays. His chops and his voice are still kickin' IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasein Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Not digging the video though I like the conceit of burning bridges.... Drunken abusive asshole throws his woman around -- this is not their first rodeo together. Looks like the money and blow has been flowing for these two for a while. So she's finally had enough (of the good times and the bad I presume) and she decides this is it... So instead of leaving and taking responsibility for the choices she made living and being in that relationship in the first place by walking out clean and not looking back.... She basically steals from him -- money, mementos, guitar, and car..... So she's "burned her bridge" I guess.... no more coke for her if she comes crawling back when her nose starts getting hungry But what she's actually done is GTA, Grand larceny, CC-Fraud, destruction of property... you list the felonies. Plus it looks like she's decided to replace the trashy drunken guy for a trashy drunken girl from the bar This is female empowerment? How about this for a message --- You make choices -- own 'em.... you can make new choices anytime but the echo and consequences of our initial choices are real and can be sticky... This whole video smells like HEP C. My video would be... She walks out the door -- moves to a new city, get's a job - maybe a little education, works on self improvement and gets a little therapy too trying to figure out why she's choosing these kinds of guys. Maybe she deals with her substance abuse issues as well. Basically instead of burning a bridge backwards she builds towards a better future. Maybe at some point she meets a guy or a girl and they form a stable pair bond together and after several years of stability they make the decision to raise a kids or two.... and while those kids grow up they are raised in a stable environment, and through the example modeled by their parents, learn to avoid all the mistakes she made as a young woman (because they wont be driven by the same kind of dysfunction that she obviously came from)...... Yeah! Happy Joy! Plus the black pickups on that Les Paul looked terrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm reminded of a time when rock n roll didn't need to be sending an "appropriate message", it was more about a raw feeling or an interesting anecdote that didn't always end happily or was politically correct. As Mick Jagger put it: "I know, it's only rock n roll but I like it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tongue was in my cheek on that though I've been getting a little tired of girl as victim stories that refuses to address their culpability in dynamic relationships of this nature... In reality this shit happens all the time and the chick invariably comes crawling back; takes a backhand or two, and the cycle repeats... those bridges back are literally indestructible no matter how big a fire you make and the system repeats itself like a subroutine. But the whole rant was a setup for the Hep C comment and the pickup punchline.... good times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Dave -- it's cool okay? -- people can have tangential dispassionate discussion without upsetting or intending to upset anyone and without derailing a thread - I'm not upset in the slightest - I actually enjoyed the thread itself. What derails threads is the getting upset part. It's all for fun and interest as we expand and explore this great big world of music & life. For me this would open up a great discussion on the question of how does an aging rocker promote his new band in video these days - questions of what the market is/isn't -- how Doug understands that market etc.... but we don't have to go there if it's going to upset you - not intended by me at all.
