    Saw this Ozzy meme and now I'm curious...

    Without question it's Diary of a Madman. It's absolutely brilliant. Randy Rhoads and Bob Daisley were an unbelievable composing team, and Sharon was a fool to break the real band "Blizzard of Ozz" up. That entire album along with Revelation (Mother Earth) from the Blizzard album, are the...

    The Perfect Albums Thread

    My list is a bit all over the place in Rock and 60s-70s Pop, just like my main music interests. My very favorite albums from my youth are perfect in my opinion. Black Sabbath - Born Again [1983], Ozzy Osbourne - Diary of a Madman [1982] and Iron Maiden - Killers [US version, 1981]. These...

    Rumour - David Tennant to return to Doctor Who as the 14th Doctor?

    o_O So, did RTD pull a prank on everybody with this or was the entire lead up to the regeneration a huge fakeout to totally blow everybody away with this?o_O I'm so confused, but... Nope, I am confused. I'm crossing my fingers though.

    What is Youtube content that you consider really interesting?

    I'm sorry in advance that I am overly chatty. I always have been, and that shows. If I'm alone and have some time to spare, YouTube becomes a real rabbit hole to me. Literally any interest will have literally hundreds of hits and links to other things which might be of interest, which in...

    Favorite horror movies?

    My absolute favorite horror classic is John Carpenter's The Thing (1982), followed closely by Return of the Living Dead (1985) which has one of the best soundtracks of all time. I'm not a fan of shock-value slashers with people running around like Scooby-Doo. I like the classic Universal...

    Nostalgia From Old TV Commercials

    I always really enjoyed watching old TV shows that have either the original commercials or old re-broadcasts of them with commercials.

    Actress Olivia Newton-John passes away at 73

    Very sad. She seemed genuinely as good as the characters she portrayed. Xanadu, although not a theatrical hit, is now the classic musical it deserved to be at it's release. That soundtrack is amazing and pairing Olivia with ELO, Cliff Richard, and The Tubes (albeit in production) was...

    What did people think of the new Dune movie

    The 1958 Fly is a classic, and a great "B" movie of it's time, but the 1986 is by far a superior film. Same goes with The Thing from Another World from 1951, which can't even compare to the absolutely brilliant John Carpenter's The Thing 1982 film. I have seen many remakes that are far...

    What song are you listening to right now?

    Well, with John and Yoko being severe heroin addicts from that time through the eventual band demise really was the biggest strain on the other three members, making an already strained relationship between the four into a real hate fest (John's solo 1969 song "Cold Turkey" was about his first...

    Favorite TV Shows?

    Doh! I remembered later about another of my absolute favorites, the wonderful Pushing Daisies.

    Favorite TV Shows?

    I have a lot of favorites. Series that I do regular re-viewings of are: Doctor Who 60's + 70's (Doctors 1-4) with 80's and 2005-2013 less so, Red Dwarf, Batman (1966 series), original series Lost in Space, Sapphire & Steel, original series Tomorrow People, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy...

    What song are you listening to right now?

    I usually don't listen to just one song. When I am at my computer at night I usually listen on random to either albums, entire band histories or various styles. Music is a passion of mine and has always been so I have literally many thousands of albums loaded onto my computer. Last night I...

    Weird films and T.V. Shows

    I've just been re-watching my Blu ray set of the 1966 Batman TV series and decided that was worthy of mention here. I've always loved that series (literally from infancy) but it took watching it as an adult to appreciate the surreal aspects of it and it's strange humor. It was so brilliant...

    Met a famous celebrity?

    When I was a teenager I met the band Saxon in 1986 after their show in Chicago. The show had a low turnout of only young guys which made Biff a bit pissy after the great show they put on, but the rest of the band were really great guys and very talkative. The next year I was working for a...

    What were/are your favorite shows from the 90's?

    There were a lot of great shows in the 90's. Twin Peaks, Red Dwarf, Nightmare Cafe, Batman TAS, Batman Beyond, The Tick, Spider-Man, The Flash, Tiny Tunes, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, Ren & Stimpy, The Critic, Family Dog, Eerie Indiana, X-Files, Adventures of Brisco County Jr., Liquid...
