I didn't know that they mingled in the audience without being noticed, but I'll take your word for it. What I mean by self-important is that I always get the feeling that Pink Floyd records exist to tell you how clever the band is. They just don't give me anything. I don't mind a band being clever, but clever and dull is never an attractive proposition.
I read that they did that back in the early 70's, but who knows if its true. I never really felt they came across the way you describe them. But like I said already, I respect your opinion because you are not just spewing off BS, your are explaining your reasoning!!

The worst band in history? A little group from the 1980's called magic Powers. Yeah, I knew 'em, and no, they never made it past the "garage band" stage.
Oh, the worst band people have actually heard of?
Gotta be "The Monkees".
HAHA!! Then why not say The Partridge Family or that band that landed on Gilligans Island, The Termites or Mosquitos, something like that, LOL!!

Whom would that be? out of curiosity. I don't know his name but the only one i can think of that compares or might be considered a better bassist is from the band Primus. Steve Harris from Iron Maiden is regarded as a really good bassist and he is imo. Comparing him to Geddy Lee though is another story.
Actually after I wrote that I started thinking and really couldnt come up with that many. I guess its all a matter of preferance too. But a few I think are better are Billy Sheehan, who played with several bands, Chris Squire from Yes, Stanley Clarke who is a rock/jazz fusion musician and possible the best who ever lived(JMO of course), John Entwistle for the Who ,Tony Levin from King Crimson and the guy you mentioned Les Claypool. But Geddy is right up there. And I also think Alex Lifeson is a very good guitarist too. Rush is an amazingly talented band. People who dont like them only know the stuff they hear on the radio. They should listen to 2112, A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres, and any of there pre-1980 albums.
Steve Harris is very good but i thing geddy is better
Sorry for getting long winded but I am very passionate about music and while I wont always agree I respect well informed opinions of others!!

I think spitting on the cock to help with a blowjob/handjob, is fine and can be damn sexy. Spitting on a vagina? Um... no. I would prefer using a standard lube (always keep one handy, even if both are turned on, sometimes you need it).
When I posted to this, I was just thinking about me spitting on his cock!! I didnt think of the guy spitting on my pussy. That would be a turn off for me. I guess Im selfish when it comes to spitting!
NOT!!

It works in some cases and it might not work in others.
If it's hot and rough and in the intensity of the moment - spitting on genitals or into your partner's mouth might feel natural and part of the uninhibited lust-driven moment. You're fucking, you're not thinking. In those cases, it works and can definitely add to the urgency, power-play and dirty sex factor.
If the sex is not like this and the guy is taking his time, being slower and softer or you have time to think about something other than what is immediately going on or you feel like you can easily break to reach for that bottle of lube in your nightstand drawer or think about ordering take-out later on, then yeah, I think spitting might come off as awkward.
For me - I feel like some people can pull it off and it's hot and sexy, and others - it would probably look 'weird' and unsexy. That's the best I can explain it. It has to feel natural 'in the moment' and it basically has to fit a certain kind of sexual interplay.
The act itself doesn't put me off though.
I agree.
Spitting can be a turn on when "fucking" but not so much when "making love" if that makes any sense. When its just raw, dirty, lusty sex than it can add to the vibe. But if is a romantic, loving, gentle event then it really doesnt fit.

Speaking of roofs, have you ever had sex on a roof of a building?

Well, we'll never know what Syd would have done had he not had his meltdown, but one of my many contentions about this is that Syd had a playfulness about him that the rest of Pink Floyd completely lost, becoming just dull and sullen and more than a little self-important.
Ultimately though, music, by its very nature, is subjective, which is why the comparison someone else made with sport doesn't work. Sport has clear rules which tells you who wins, who loses, and who is the greatest by the number of titles they win. How do you judge who is the most musical? Some people are technically great, but fail utterly to engage - a lot of vocalists do the technical side of singing very well, but in the process they don't seem to have the personality they were born with. Others have personality but can't sing for toffee (Dylan).
Oh, and whoever it was said Europe and "The Final Countdown". Spot on! Trouble is, it never goes away, because as soon as there's something to be counted down, out the blasted thing comes.
Dont get me wrong, I think Syd was amazing and you are right, we will never know what he would have did and where the band would go. And Syd and Roger were complete opposites in many ways. Syd did have that child like playfulness while Roger was more of a hardened, I hate the world kind of guy (if you know anything about him you can understand why). I agree with what you said about the band personality becoming Dull and Sullen, but do not agree on self-important. They pretty much remained anonymous, didnt promote themselves, didnt have their pictures on albums, didnt do interviews, like most bands did. As a matter of fact, many times they would mingle in the audience after shows and not even be noticed. They just made their music and lived their lives. Were polar opposites of comtemporaries like the Stones, The Who, Led Zep who craved publicity.
This is what makes this fun. Everyone has their opinion and no one is wrong (except LM for putting down Kurt Cobain), LOL!
Oh, and another reason Final Countdown never goes away is that as awful of a song as it is, its sticks in your head! Like that sickening Dont Worry, Be Happy song!!

As for worst band ever? My pick goes out to Europe and thier trademark song,'the final countdown'Followed closely by any 80's hair band.
Did i win?
Totally Agree, Final Countdown is one of the most annoying songs ever!!

Rush will always ge slammed because of the voice."omg he sounds like a girl!, so annoying!" Some would say " wow! that guy can really sing high" And he plays bass guitar, and keyboards while he's singing. You would be hard pressed to find a bassist and percussionist as gifted/talented as Geddy Lee or Neil Peart. In rock and roll that is anyway. Alex lifeson isn't the geatest guitarist in the world but, still very talented and creative on the guitar.
I think there are many bassists as good or better than Geddy Lee ( no knock on Geddy) but totally agree about Neal Peart. He is top 5 for sure!! Anyone who thinks Rush are not talented musicians, listen to La Villa Strangiato.

I cant name just one. Be like picking a favorite child. Some of my favorites bands are Pink Floyd, The Who, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Foo Fighters, Deep Purple but I could name a 100 more. I love music! I can probably say my all-time favorite vocalist is Freddie Mercury

Good call. Fergie is awful. When the BEP's played for halftime of the Super Bowl a few years ago, she had to sing without autotune and it was terrible. She was all over the place. She was so off pitch.
If she did then it was the fault of the organizers. As far as I know, every recent Super Bowl half time show has been lip-synced with the exception of Bruce Springsteen who refused to do it unless he was live. And even then I think it was just his vocals that were live. They do lip-sync shows since these shows need to be timed out to the second. There is no way you can possibly get all the equipment set up that fast to do a totally live show.
Beyonce will fit right in, LOL.
But I do agree Fergie cant sing, but she looks good!!
