FanNation - The Republic of Sport

DEAD.

The new Locker Talk is weird. You have to click on "Locker Talk" then scroll to the bottom of an extremely long page.

Anyway, I'm sticking around FN, but the group won't be worth doing without Mac and Chrono.

I'm out of the group, but Mac is still here since he's a admin too. So is chrono I suppose. This group is dead pretty much. Been for a while. Sorry guys.

Check this out - I sent an email to Bryan Graham regarding the ability to embed video we are supposed to have now. He says "yeah, its the 5th button on the 3rd row of style features for your blogs" I was like "What?" Did they even see if regular users blog tools were updated before they rolled this out? Looks like no.

Change of heart Cincy? You're too young to remember "The Day After" aren't you? I'm not even sure why I'm still around, frankly.

Have you Coletrain? Yes it's good. No don't end the group, some people may stay.

I think its over Coletrain.

Should I just end this group already?

I've been listening to The Division Bell like crazy lately...

Unfortunately.

The Walrus won't go away!

Can't get rid of it? Niiiice.

Ya, the Mods won't answer me either about video mottos.

Just gotta contact a mod.

It isnt my fault, at least not directly. It was working fine before I went to California.

Great job, Mac! Wow

Holy hell... I cant get rid of it. I was able to before, but now I cant.

Oops.

Fine, ladies.

Thank you, Cardsox!

Yeah Mac I'm kinda with Cole on this one. It's really annoying. Take it down for the betterment of the DPS community.

Mac, this ain't being hormonal. I've never liked this video craze. I can't even change it!

And I'm surprised it's you. Thought it was chrono with the Beatles and all...

Putting up that video is cool, and doesnt make me a moronic jackass.

You can be so hormonal it's amazing.

Who's the moronic jackass who put the video as the motto?

Do I have to start taking away privileges?

How dare you MD

Not very big Floyd fans this group is...
Your Loss Becomes Mac's Gain 07/05/08

Me personally, I hate Floyd

Now I don't know if I'm doing so.

I'm making a new rock group.I don't want,nor expect it to replace this or any other one.I just want another group to express my feelings and share thoughts.It should be fun.

http://fannation.com/blogs/post/219425

Hate to be an advertiser, but this IS a music blog. And it does pertain quite strongly to classic rock.

Yeah right

AC/DC is...

Ugh.

Pretty sure everyone in this group accepts all 4 as rock saviors, Mac...

Not very big Floyd fans this group is...

the doors will be victorious

ODD

Hah AC/DC is destroying in the poll.

OK, Cincy.

I'm having some difficulties,I'll try this when I get back from my Basketball game.

A blogs coming today,a video blog.From me,check it out when you can.

Go ahead Cincy

that is my favorite doors song from the self-titled i love that song Crystal Ship is great too

Time to live,time to lie
Time to laugh,time to die
Take it easy baby
Take it as it comes
Don't move to fast
And you want your love to last

Anyone mind if I make a poll?

Watch it DJ

BABY PAYNIS!

Thank you, Thug.

thanks guys

Nice.A nirvana album cover.In Bloom,Smells like Teen Spirit,Dumb,and Litium are all good songs.

Have at it, Thug.

Just go ahead and post it, Thug.

Is there a protocol to posting a blog here, or can I just go for it when I got one ready?

Tenth Avenue Freeze out!

Good song...

*springsteen's

Led Zeppilin IV may be great but Good Times Bad Times from I is my favorite song and the best album ever is either one of springteens first 2 albums

No problem man. They're great. Get more of them. And yes, IV is their best album.

Led Zeppelin IV = best album I've listened to.

Thank you Coletrain for introducing me to Led Zeppelin,I'm born again!I had no clue some of the sings they sing were by them,I like many of their songs.

Key word: USUALLY

Then I'm not loving them or hating them, am I?

Like chrono. He says he just doesnt get them at all.

Pink Floyd is a band you usually either love or hate.

Hey, he hates 'em he hates 'em.

Then you are a fool. Not liking and hating is a strong distinction.

I hate Pink Floyd

(stares at Coletrain)

(schoolgirl giggles)

*chuckles*

Haha. I just listened to "Horse with no Name" by America. Pretty good.

Agreed, Thug. You can tell a bit about someone by the music they choose to listen too.

This is one of my favorite groups on FN. To me, To know where people are coming from musically really tends to shed a lot of light on how you think about sports (and life) and therefore makes this group totally relevant to the site.

Just wanted to say.

lol

Magic Bus wasn't a Who album.

Coolio

Just wanted to say..i am a fan of your blogs..you guys put out continually good stuff.

You are on my blog tracker.

Naturally.

let me guess #21 Abba

Beatles, Dylan, Stones, Nirvana, Clapton,...dude?

Yep

piano man, is a rock song?

Top 20.

And I'm done actually. Just gotta post it.

Coletrain is working on his Top 25 albums list....

Hey just wondering,has anyone thought of doing a top albums list?You know like maybe top 25 albums of all time?

I gotta vote for 10. Amazing album.

Yes, true

Well, it was before they were famous and so it was done cheaply.

I'm not crazy about Bleach at all. Some good songs, but it's incredibly rough around the edges. You either like that album or you hate it.

All Nirvana is great, but their three albums all are a bit different.
Bleach has more of a hardcore punk sound.
Nevermind is pop based grunge.
In Utero is supposed to "sound bad"

I would say In Utero. Bleach is better than Nevermind though. Nevermind is a polished pop record. C'mon!

You've come to the right place Cincy. You have any questions or anything, it's fine.

Just recently,my love of rock has started to grow.It all started with Guitar Hero.I don't know much,but I'm learning.

What is? In Utero? I'd be shocked if you said Bleach.

Nevermind isn't even NIRVANA'S best grunge album

My view is that grunge is not classic rock. Late late 80's hair metal (The Cult, FireHouse, etc.) that's not classic rock. Living Colour is though. Metallica is, too.

I've never seen anywhere or heard from anyone a definitive and set qualifications for something to be considered classic.

There's a classic rock station near me that treats it like this: if it was done at least a decade ago, we're playing it. The other station 'round here rarely plays stuff from the 90's, but pretty much must treat it the same way the other station does.

So... that's how I go about it as well.

For me, classic rock has to be the 70's or earlier.

Like the new poll.

Cool MD

I'm going to ZZ at Aberdeen Proving Grounds.

Meh...

I had voted for the Doors.

It's looking like the next edition of The Experts will be on The Who.

Speak words.

Ugh

What?

Chrono...

Well....ok....I guess......you should've used lyrics just from that album then

I know it's not from that album, Cole... just liked the whole piano covered by snow thing.

Whoever did the Supertramp slogan and logo, wrong album for the slogan.

And I'm surprised I'm not the one that put the Supertramp up in the first place.

I'm impervious to eggs and heart attacks.

So ha.

Nothing if you're into that future...getting egged every night and having daily heart attacks by the age of 30

And what's so bad about that, Coletraim?

dang wetbacks!

Chrono and LoS will be those 2 old guys that live on the corner of the street, sitting on a lawnchair on the front porch with a shotgun, talking to himself all day long on how immigrants are destroying America while cursing out everyone who walks by.

My dad always says you can't trust a guy with two first names, and a guy who wears a tshirt with a sportcoat.

Any artist with two first names (e.g., Elton John, Billy Joel) is no friend of mine.

That's chrono alright

I couldnt remember who...

just remembered posting the video for "We Didnt Start the Fire" and someone b*tching.

That was chrono.

Werent you the one that once upon a time said Joel had no song writing talent?

Billy Joel>>>>>>>>>>> X 1,000 Elton John

It's not even funny.

Elton John > Billy Joel

Suck on that. Chew on it, slosh it around... and swallow.

No thank you

Yes!

No!

You die first.

No one cares about you Mac. Just die already.

I dont think anyone cares about Meat Loaf... other than when he's hoasting the TV gameshow "Rock and a Hard Place."

I downloaded most of Bat Out Of Hell 3 the new one Loaf released last year. I expected it to be a train wreck with Steinman not producing it and all , but I've been pleasantly surprised. Some truly fun songs.

That happened to my cousin once.

yeah, for a little while, then some D-Bag named Robert Plant poisoned me with... um, laryngitis

http://www.metal-archives.com/index.php


Cool site for metal fans.

Didn't you used to sing for Led Zeppelin, Nomar?

Bass, you wimp. If I played an instrument, it would be Maracas! Or electric chimes! I sang in a band once, that was fun.....

Bass. I don't play guitar.

I'd imagine so...

On the guitar C-Sox?

I can play Spirit of Radio.

Yes you did.

See, I didnt Cardsox... chump.

I put it up. Was on a Metallica binge last night. I was venting heavy.

Yes you did.

Not me.

wonder who changed the picture and quote.... MAC >_>

Um... I must've just showed up seconds after you said that.

Well... chrono is somehow a SM and an Administrator. So... him? lol

GOOD GOD, MAC! ARE YOU RELOADING THIS PAGE BY THE SECOND?????????????????????

To me it was a tough choice between Layla and Satisfaction. Judging by the big goose egg next to Satisfaction, I went with Layla.

Other than me and Coletrain... not sure.

Mac, how many people even CAN do that?

I voted for Layla, however the best riff driven song is Whole Lotta Love.

Who is apparently trying to get brownie points with me by putting up the album cover for Master of Puppets, and the lyrics to "The Thing That Should Not Be"??? LOL

Hm... then I guess I had thought about it, and just never did it. lol

No Mac, I did it.

It was me who took away your administrator privs, chrono...

No reason really... other than to mess with you and see how long it'd take for you to notice.

At least I think I did that... I remember thinking about it. I must've gone through with it... it was a while ago.

Why is "The Wanton Song" up there? Good song, but not nearly as famous as the others.

I liked having admin privileges, though. Why can't I have them back?

Doesn't matter chrono. You can still post blogs.

Actually, I guess it's no longer called "Supermember."

"Member Plus."

I'm a supermember now.

I used to be an admin.

You're still listed as an author, chrono.

Hah. 69 members. Well done, T.R.E.N.T.

I shot them.

Where did my DPS admin privileges go?

Yeah, right.

Blogging privaledges. I'm actually going to do one.

Bite the bullet chrono.

Ugh. See what you've done? It's not funny at all now.

"It's not thin, but not that thick."


That's what she said.

Ok, fine.

Why?

Then again, why not not say it?

There's a (in)famous four-word interjection I could put in response to Coletrain's statement, but I won't do it.

It's not thin, but not that thick.

There's a thin line.

Eddie Van Halen and that band was not hair/glam metal. That was arena rock. Tard.

If I do recall, he did experience a full recovery.

I was so happy when Andy Samberg punched out Bon Jovi on SNL.
God, Bon Jovi sucks. He always sucked and he keeps releasing suck that sounds exactly like the old suck.

Do you want to slit Eddie Van Halen's throat and defecate on his albums, too, Mac?

No, Mac. Bon Jovi LED the worst musical movement ever. Get it right.

Cardsox, that statement makes no sense whatsoever.

Bon Jovi was part of the worst musical movement ever: Hair/Glam Metal.

That alone gives me enough reason to slit his throat and defecate on his albums.

Everything that has ever come out of Bon Jovi's mouth is made of pure gold.

I actually like a Bon Jovi song...I know, crazy.

"Runaway" is actually a respectable song.

""Jukebox Hero" Won The Last Poll. Suck On"

The last part should have said

"Suck on that, Bob Seger!"

Got cut off. Suck on...lol

The Pink Floyd song, obviously.

I do personally.

"We Will Rock You" is the quintessential arena rock song. Among others they did.

No, I have the top 3 done.

Cole, I didn't consider Queen as arena rock. I suppose I should have.

How the flying **** is Queen not on that poll?

Something tells me Cardsox cant decide on who's the best arena-rock band, and that's why this poll is up.

Totally.

Mac has a f*ckin hard on for these talkin polls.

Not really.

I voted for Madonna.

I am the 69th member. ha. KISS sucks. Who likes Kiss?

Well, I hate KISS too. Them, and practically any hair/glam metal band next to Def Leppard.

DJ said he hated Sublime so I just brought up a band that I hated.

What brought up KISS, Cole?

Probably you, crano.

WHO VOTED FOR MADONNA???????

Kiss sucks.
I HATE Gene Simmons and none of them have any real talent.

I hate KISS.

Rock & Roll All Night is ok. Other then that, suckage.

http://www.fannation.com/blogs/post/162775

I hate Sublime.

It is not the album cover, LoS. That pic provided by chrono is correct.

That pic is just some random thing I found on google.

I thought this was the album cover.

http://static.rateyourmusic.com/album_images/999.jpg

It is a very weird album cover

c) Why is he impaling himself?

a) Why is does his skin look brown?
b) Why is his hair a light chestnut color?

That is Mick Jagger, chrono.

DUH.

Who's the impaled guy in that picture?

Slash is so cool.

True dat. I came to this group for like 15 straight days with nary a comment.

Gotta get some sort of group participation...

How do we get more people to talk.

Outside of the occasional Videos blogs...this group is dead.

HELLO!!!!

(Listens to the Echo)

Journey is alright...

Journey sucks

I hate Journey.

Whoever made this poll cant spell.

LONELY.

who the hell are YOU?

What the hell does badly great mean?

And who the hell is Cardsox...?

lol...

lol, no one said anything good

I'm gettin' a lot of love in the poll.

Sorry, Cardsox. I should've known it wasnt you. Only Coletrain could've f'ed up like this. :D

I expect a written public apology from you very soon, Mac.

Mac, I made the poll. Relax, tiger.

Cardsox, your poll sucks.

"Should Have Been 0 Songs" That implies we've seen it already.

"I Still Dont Get #1" Same thing again. lol

"Where's "I Ran"?!?!?!?!?!?!" Same thing.

Bonehead!

Where's Moving Pictures.

WOW.

I've listened to 14 of them.

I have only listened to 3 of these albums...

Who's the fool of this Took?

Fool of a Took!

As I knew you would...

I think we all know who I picked (2112).

I was massively unimpressed with London Calling.

I wonder....lol

Well, it's obvious who DJ voted for...lol

Awww....

Hope they ask him again later this year.

They offered Springsteen the gig this yeah, but he declined. So Petty was Plan B.

Actually, yeah...Springsteen would be great.

We need another Mick Jagger next year...Only not Mick Jagger...

Springsteen would be cool...

I'm gonna have to vote for AC/DC. Cant get any better than them performing "Thunderstruck" in front of millions...

Did we ever figure out who won the song draft?

lol The vast majority of his songs will be songs I'VE never heard of, Mac.

I didnt even know DJ was doing a Top 100 songs list.

Honestly, I'll use it as an educational experience as I can guess that the majority of the songs are ones I've never heard.

My full list is there now...

It'd be cool if you could eventually add videos for all the songs taken in the song draft...it would be like the defenitive song archive.

We still have to get the remainder of Chrono's and SS's lists. That's why I deleted the poll.

HEY WHO DELETED THE IMPORTANT POLL!!!
REVEAL YOURSELF!

GO TO THE COMMENTS!!!

The blog! At last!

Oh....nvm.....*knock on wood*

Why did my comment just get deleted??

I know what will go first if Mac/Cole/Cardsox/chrono get first pick.

Not when I make the blog, Coletraim.

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Come on, Mac...

chrono, you are always slow.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

Where is that blog?

It doesn't take that long...

OK, but I might not be able to stay as long as I said...

So, what song's going to go first, I wonder...?

How many rounds with this? 10? 15? 20?

SS, we still need/want as many players as possible. But if you want to just watch, that's ok.

I'm fine giving up my spot...I'd rather just watch...

Making blog....

Oh, there he is.

WAIT!

LEAGUE OF SHADOWS JUST SHOWED UP!

I'm in.

w000000000000ter sc000000ter

Alright Mac Lets go!

In a matter of min.

It starts now, SS. As soon as Mac gets the blog up.

Yeah, what Mac said.

We got 6.

We've got:

Cardsox
Coletrain
Mac
Super S.
Eaglemaniac
Chrono

So when does this song draft start?

What's up?

How many we got?

Hola

That overdid it...

Hello.

Blello...

Heat Lampo..wait this isn't the Chat Room....crap!

Shello..

Yello.

hello....

Blah!

I might by Chinese Democracy. I expect it to be pretty crappy

when is the draft tonight?

It's two seperate songs.

Might that be...London Calling? Not London Burning?

lqtm

I voted for I Wanna be Sedated. Not a big fan of the Ramones, but that's one of their songs that I truly enjoy.

I'm still working on typing up the review. Sorry.

Yes..The Clash
