JS> There's a guy with a guitar and another with two guys (one is playing a JS> piano or keyboard, and the other guy is playing a sax). Well, my theory is that they started out with the two commercials featuring LL cool J, and Aerosmith so we would recognize them. Then they put some no-names in there so everyone would talk about the commercials trying to figure them out. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: The Eclectic Lab (1:153/831) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 166 MUSIC Ref: F4B00029 Date: 04/05/98 From: GRANT BATDORF Time: 06:18pm \/To: SEAN DENNIS (Read 0 times) Subj: puff daddy SD> Uh, the artist's name is Matthew Wilder, I believe... SD> for some reason, that comes to mind. I agree with you SD> on that... there's not enough creativity IMHO in SD> mainstream music nowadays. Yeah, that's the problem. Nothing great has come out (with the exclusion of Aenima by Tool) since the early nineties. With bands like Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, etc. Come to think of it, there are a couple of exceptions, but they are just later releases by those early 90's bands. GB> There is music out there today that is original. Just not Rap. SD> Yeah, I guess I overgeneralized (I have a bad habit of SD> that) with that. I've heard all sorts of great music- SD> in all sorts of genres that is cool. Yeah, I have my SD> particular tastes, but I enjoy taking a taste of SD> everything that is out there and settling on what I SD> like best. :) Yeah, just listen to what exists, and go with what's best. I don't give a rat's ass what everyone else is listening to, because it half the time it sucks. GB> more re-done. I am 16, and stuck in the grunge era of the early GB> nineties. SD> Well, I guess you could say that you'd have to have SD> grown up in the 80's to really like them. Looking back SD> now (!), I can see how silly the songs may sound to me SD> now, but back then, that was the latest thing and it SD> brings back happy memories. :) As for being redone-I SD> agree-leave the originals alone. Well, that's what I hear. People who grew up in the eighties like that music, and most other people don't. Personally, I think most of the fashions, and music is amusing, but you can't argue with nostalgia. SD> agree-leave the originals alone. SD> I remember back in 1989, I was living in Portland, SD> Oregon (which is about a 2 hour drive south of Seatte, SD> Washington where Nirvana's from). A friend came back SD> from Seattle with a copy of a band he had heard playing SD> at a local club up there called Nirvana. SD> I listened to him and said, "Oh, they'll never make mainstream." :P As soon as I heard Smells Like Teen Spirit, I knew they would be big. They would have been huge, but Cobain killed himself. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: The Eclectic Lab (1:153/831) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 166 MUSIC Ref: F4B00030 Date: 04/05/98 From: GRANT BATDORF Time: 06:36pm \/To: ALL (Read 0 times) Subj: Science Hey, I just thought of something. I wonder how long it's gonna take some two-bit useless musicain wannabe rapper to try to use the crappy 80's song "Blinded me with Science" (or whatever that song was called). They've used just about every other 80's song.
