Nope just a case of the brain farts. -

Boy, somehow the pbone-EHME feud is worse than the bob barron-EHME feud. I couldn't think of a feud that I would care less about than EHME and pbone beefing. EHME, my man, stop dragging yourself into shitty feuds. Fake edit: Wrong thread? -
Shut up limey. Thriller and Off The Wall (and to a lesser extent, Bad) are two of the most acclaimed pop albums of their era. Granted, he hasn't recorded a good album in twenty years and I don't have high hopes for a comeback but saying he has so few critically acclaimed songs is just dumb.

I don't think we've ever had a thread dedicated to The King of Pop here (well not one that wasn't focused on his alleged boy loving) and since a lot of us had Off The Wall in our ten favorite albums thread I think we're about due. Your favorite album, song, etc. Up until very recently, I wavered between Off The Wall and Thriller as my favorite, eventually deciding that the former was the better album. But in the past few days, I've been listening a lot to Bad. While I don't think it reaches the heights of Off The Wall and the album tracks are pretty lousy, I think it may contain his strongest set of singles. There isn't a bad one in the bunch and most of them are very good to great. It might just be because a lot of Thriller has become way overplayed but I'm thinking Bad is slowly but surely becoming my second favorite Michael Jackson album. I feel Dangerous is also pretty underrated though I think it's here where his looniness and megalomania really starts seeping into his music in a bad way. Its fully set in by HIStory but even that has a few moments. I haven't really listened to Invincible all that much though "You Rock My World" was a fairly neat.

TSM Profile Tag Team Edition: Demolition
King Kamala replied to King Kamala's topic in General Wrestling
Funny anecdote I misunderstood that lyric for a while as a kid as "Here comes the ass smash." Great theme music like Cheech said, it's definitely up there with "Real American", Ted DiBiase's theme, and The Fabulous Rougeaus theme in terms of best themes of the era. Many thinking about it, WWF really knew how to produce entrance music back then. I'm having a hard time thinking of bad ones. -
some other suggestions: This thread is Boss, talkin' 'bout Bruce Springsteen and his work Posts, let's talk about Bjork Give 'Em Enough Thread, the fucking Clash, motherfucker White Threading, post your thoughts on Billy Idol The Humans Are Thread. celebrating Flight of the Conchords' musical genius Is Simply Thread too obvious?

TSM Profile Tag Team Edition: Demolition
King Kamala replied to King Kamala's topic in General Wrestling
I think Demolition would have worked well in the Attitude era with a little bit of tweaking. I think straight up ass kickers will work regardless of era. To get a bit off topic but I think the problem with LOD during The Attitude era was they looked really weak in their feud against The New Age Outlaws. They looked like a bunch of washed up old farts (which they were, to be fair) instead of the unstoppable badasses yesteryear and repackaging them as LOD 2000 only really made things worse. -
Oh and I still this TMC guy is stealing my thunder in General Wrestling. Hardly anybody's responded to my Demolition thread! I might have to fight him.

I don't know it probably is extremely foolish for me to expect professionalism from live Stones performances. But none of The Stones' live albums from their heyday really did anything for me. As for worst Stones album...it's got to be Dirty Work. Anything before has its moments and anything after is too bland to be egregiously bad.

I can't remember a feud involving Bob Barron that I liked (though I like Bob Barron) and I can't remember a feud involving EHME I liked except the one with Dandy. So this is the ultimate in bad TSM e-feuds.
-
It sounds like blasphemy but having seen Gimme Shelter and having listened to numerous Stones live albums from the '60s and '70s, I have to say that they're way better live now than they were in their heyday.
-
"Emotional Rescue" is perhaps the most divisive song in the Rolling Stones canon. Personally, I'd put in my Top 10 Favorite Stones songs but my dad would demand that I change the channel whenever that song came on the local classic rock station when we were in the car.
-
Yeah, this guy's pretty good. He's going a little bit crazy starting threads. Is there anyway we can put a limit on that? There's no reason that anyone (newbie or established poster) should start more than five threads in twenty four hours.

It's hard for me to pick a favorite Stones era. I like almost everything they did up until Undercover (yes I'm the guy who likes that album). My favorite album is Sticky Fingers. I was this close to putting it on my ten favorite albums list earlier this week. Like with most of my favorite bands, my favorite song changes basically from day to day. Right now, my favorite is "Dandelion". I heard that one on Sirius/XM's '60s station a couple months ago and was amazed at how well The Stones could pull off psychadelic pop. Though as a whole, Their Satanic Majesties Request is far from my favorite Stones album. I don't think The Stones continuing on into their old age hasn't really helped or hurt their career. While their output over the past twenty five years is no great shakes, they haven't really compromised their integrity or bent over backwards to get Top 40 play like Aerosmith or Rod Stewart. I mean I wouldn't put them up there with Neil Young or Bob Dylan on the list of great fogey rockers but they're certainly not an embarrassment.

I grew up is the best answer but to be specific, I stopped watching it regularly around the time Keenan and Kel left All That.

What'd I ever do to u You dissed The Boss a few days back man. If you diss Springsteen, you're going to have to answer to me ! -
You can't pony up the extra 20 cents? Well I didn't say I wasn't still buying them. Just mildly disappointed that they raised the price. I've never gotten why mozzarella sticks are as expensive as they are. It's not like they're using really good mozzarella or anything.

I'm glad I somehow restrained myself from drunken posting last night. Lord knows we could have lived without seeing me pick a e-fight with EHME or call Byron The Bulb a faggot. -
TSM Profile Tag Team Edition: Demolition

I was very close to putting him in the members list but then I realized nobody really knows and/or cares about the dude. -
As a non-participant, I support this idea. Especially if one of the winners goes to the other's house and ambushes him and steals his part of the prize ala Bad News Brown at WrestleMania IV.

This is becoming the new Let's Talk About... thread for me (though someone feel free to start one of those up again if the mood strikes). Anyways I figured it's time for our first tag team edition of TSM Profile... Name: Demolition Members: Ax (Bill Eadie, 1987-1990, mid '90s-present)), Smash (Randy Colley, 1987. Barry Darson, 1987 to 1991, 2007 to present), Crush (1990 to 1991) Height: Ax- 6'3'' Smash- 6'2 Crush- 6'6'' Combined Weight: Various, depending on combination. Years active: 1987 to 1991, 2007-present Accomplishments: 3 time WWF Tag Team Champions. Had the longest reign in the title's history. Career Summary: Demolition debuted in January '87, managed originally by Luscious Johnny V. After only a few matches, Randy Colley was replaced as Demolition Smash, allegedly because he was too recognizable as the man who played Moondog Rex. He would be replaced by Barry Darsow, a recent signee from Jim Crockett Promotions. Over the course of '87, Demolition would build up momentum defeating all of the established babyface tag teams in the WWF. They would soon replace Luscious Johnny V with another former wrestler, Mr. Fuji as their manager. At WrestleMania IV, Demolition would win their first WWF Tag Team titles, defeating Strike Force. They would go on to be champions for a record 478 days. Not only that but they were on top of one of the greatest tag team divisions in WWF history, including (at various points during the reign) the likes of; The Hart Foundation, The British Bulldogs, The Rockers, The Fabulous Rougeaus, The Powers of Pain, The Killer Bees, Strike Force, and The Brainbusters. At Survivor Series '88, Demolition turned face after Mr. Fuji abandoned them to manage their arch-rivals, The Powers of Pain. Demolition conquered The Powers of Pain and Mr. Fuji and retained their titles in a 3 on 2 match at WrestleMania V. Demolition finally lost the titles in a two out of three falls match to The Brainbusters on The July 29th, 1989 edition of Saturday Night's Main Event. A little over three months later, Demolition would regain the titles in a rematch against The Brainbusters on Superstars but their second reign was short-lived as they fell to the superteam of Andre The Giant and Haku, more popularly known as The Colossal Connection on The December 30th, 1989 edition of Superstars. In a memorable match at WrestleMania VI, Demolition would recapture the title from The Colossal Connection and would begin their third and final WWF Tag Team titles reign. Shortly after WrestleMania, a new member named Crush would join the team and Demolition would once again turn heel. In kayfabe, Crush joining the group was a result of their new bad attitude but in reality, McMahon added a new member to the team as a result of Ax's illness problems. At SummerSlam '90, The Hart Foundation would defeat Demolition for the titles with the help of recent arrivees, The Legion of Doom (a team that many initially accused Demolition of ripping off). Demolition would feud with The Legion of Doom and WWF World Champion, The Ultimate Warrior over the course of the Fall of '90. This feud culminated in a match at Survivor Series '90 where The Warrior, Intercontinental Champion Kerry Von Erich, and The Legion of Doom would defeat Mr. Perfect and all three members of Demolition. Shortly thereafter, Ax left the WWF. Smash and Crush floundered as a team for several months afterwards before being repackaged (Darsow as Repo Man and Crush as....er...Crush, a fun loving Hawaiian). Bill Eadie and The WWF would be embroiled in lawsuits for the better part of the '90s and into the '00s over The Demolition name. Eadie wrestled as Ax, regularly on the indie circuit, attempting to reignite the team with the original Smash, Randy Colley and newcomer, Demolition Blast. In 2007, the classic Demolition lineup of Darsow and Eadie would reunite on the indie circuit. Most notably, they teamed up with The One Man Gang and competed in the 2008 CHIKARA King of Trios tournament. Some Questions to perhaps to start the discussion 1. Better as heels or babyfaces? 2. Do you think they ever really shed the LOD/Road Warriors ripoff label? 3. Similar follow up; Demolition or The Legion of Doom/Road Warriors? 4. Where would you rank them amongst the great tag teams of their era? Of all time? 5. Favorite matches, moments, etc.

Managing to get Red Sox tickets. Sure they're shitty SRO tickets but hey it's only about $25 after all of the surcharges. Plus I broke the weird four year streak where I could only get tickets to see them against The Kansas City Royals.

That was intentional unintentional humor by the way. If that makes any sense. Hey, when's the Worst Poster Tournament? March (in time for the NCAA tournament/Oscars)?
