He did this to his girlfriend-at-the-time, Rianna.

Hope they shoot him.

That's true I won't argue with any of that.

i dare say there would be many who would, though.

I now feel the need to point out that Nick Oliveri is just as much as a fucking scumbag piece of human garbage as Chris Brown, and yet several of our own cheered when he reunited with Queens on stage and it was reported that he would be collaborating with Homme again.

:hello:

:flame:

Holy shit, all the respect I had for Josh when he completely cut ties with Oliveri for his bullshit just disappeared.
Seriously, what the fuck? :mad:
Nick's a total scumbag, that's one of the reasons I didn't give a single shit about the whole Kyuss Lives/Vista Chino thing because he was part of it.
Man, that's such a bummer. :mope:

Yeah same^.
I kind of recall having a really awkward, drunken conversation with the Black Cobra guys about it when they toured with him as well.
Kyuss lives was rad, and he was a part of that, but it still shouldn't be forgotten.

If you only want to listen to music made by saints, I have some great Osmond records to sell you.

I'm not saying I won't listen to the music, but I sure as fuck won't do it in a way that'll make him (or anyone that's as much of a bastard) any money.

Right. The problem there, like always, is that the line is slippery and ill-defined and basically needs to be treated on a case by case basis. I'm not sure stealing from someone because they're a shithead is the correct response.

Same logic, different scenarios: I bought my Burroughs books. The dude shot his wife in the face because he was maybe/maybe not playing 'William Tell'. Total fucking shithead. If we're talking about contributions to culture, though, I'm taking him over his wife 10 out of 10 times. I'm not going to stop paying taxes or taking vaccines because of the Tuskeegee syphilis experiment (or the dozens of others that are on the record). It's a complicated thing, intellectually, that gets treated very blithely (not that BC does that but I know him and we've had this discussion before).

Pretty sure most of us opted in on the relevant material produced by that party before all this was a thing and decided it was better than the shit produced afterwards due to a drop in quality anyway. 2c.

For the record QOTSA past songs for the deaf bores the shit out of me.

I was going to mention as well, because of semi-relevance, but mondo generator never hooked me basically because I found out about Bongzilla, Atomic Bitchwax and Alamabama Thunderpussy at about the same time and they just smoked MG out of the water.

Mondo Generator is where the Tension Head riff came from, though.

And that's a fucking riff.

I know, I know.

To get back on topic though, Chris Brown is an asshat.
