Steve Haynie Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 According to setlist.fm some lyrics were censored. 100,000 Years (Censored lyrics: changed to " Must have been a trip while I was gone) God of Thunder (Censored lyrics: changed to " I was born with a fever" and "Will slowly rob you of your sacred gold")
Ting Ho Dung Posted January 4, 2021 Author Posted January 4, 2021 And they didn't play, "Christine - Sixteen." LOL
Ting Ho Dung Posted January 4, 2021 Author Posted January 4, 2021 Guess I should have typed in, "Neil Peart Tribute," instead of using my mouse.
diablo175 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 This pains me to see. Really does. These guys (well, 2 of 'em anyway) were my idols as a tween/teenager. Even as I grew to listen to more diverse selection of music and discovered their ugly reality- studio edits/overdubs of Alive, crass marketing and commercialization- I still loved what they represented (for me). Good on them that they still have it to get up there and rock out (sort of) but it's just... sad to hear and see one's childhood heroes like this.

Steve Haynie Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Paul used to never stop moving. Now his feet stay planted on the stage way too much. In a live setting you still feel like you are at a KISS concert.

Man, wish I was able to sling a guitar like Paul did at the end of RRAN. I can't even put up a gallon of water on the shelf without excruciating pain in my shoulder(s).

But hearing Paul's vocals was enough to convince me that he might have been better off celebrating new years eve quietly at home.
Drew816 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I prefer to remember them the way they were... 😉

I just wish Zak Starkey could've jumped in after Keith passed away as he's the closest they've had since, so much better than Kenny Jones!!! Can't stand his boring drumming...

Can't stand his boring drumming... I preferred Simon Phillips, but for the same reason. Kenny Jones could have been replaced with a metronome. And the metronome would have been more interesting.

Hasn't been for a long, long time. That's basically what Townshend said after the show I saw in Atlanta in 1989, when we were asking for another encore. He said it wasn't what it used to be, and told the crowd to go home. He didn't offer to refund our tickets, though.

Ting Ho Dung Posted January 5, 2021 Author Posted January 5, 2021 Since Gene got home and bolted this off YouTube and since Kiz says this all about him and his Who complex. Let's just play the real Hu.

Willie G. Moseley Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Here's an excerpt from a May 2012 interview with Lemmy about aging bands still performing. The band continues to purvey its pulverizing music, and plans to record a new studio album in January of 2013. While Kilmister turned recently turned 67, somehow, one can’t envision Motörhead lurching into the senior-citizen bracket while becoming a parody of itself. “That’s a terrible thing to watch, y’know?” he said of certain other aggregations. “That ain’t gonna happen to this band.”
Steve Haynie Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 I am glad I watched the whole show before it got yanked off of YouTube.
