Honestly, I really don't think we will actually win...There are just too many VERY good acts here in Vegas. We are relatively new to the scene and still making our name. We have had a lot of success in a short period and THAT is a testament to our hard work but I am grateful to actually have received the nomination!! THAT is a HUGE win in itself! Not to mention getting an opportunity to "hob nob" with some known names of Rock! Lemmy was there last year , too!! So was Lita Ford. A chance to actually talk to any one of them is a chance of a lifetime!!! SO excited!!

The saddest part is he took someone else with him. Definitely looks like alcohol and speed were the main factors. Jackass indeed.
It's not metal news but I'm not sure where to post this. I really dig Jackass so I have to say it was
a little sad to come home and hear about Ryan Dunn. 34 years old. To us (old) guys that's too freakin' young.
He took an innocent with him so it's hard to be too sad but it still sucks. Stupid alcoholic fuck.

I have nothing but ill-will for JP "management" over the years and this only drives it home.
Sure, WE know about the Mill and still follow KK. Hell, I even asked about the greens fee on his golf course!
Founding member, the link belongs here somewhere. Punto final. I rest my point with one vid disabled by request.

The Steel Mill already shows alot of what we need to know about the "KK Years".
The link shouldn't have been removed, IMO. It gives the impression that management no longer cares about one of JP's "founding members", like it's burying the past as soon as it can. At this rate, Richie better make himself a website quick.
With the absence of KK's link, I wonder if we'll see "The KK Years?" Ummm. Start to 2010/11?

Thanks, Joe. All advice is very much appreciated. Even the part about the helmet might just penetrate this hard head! LOL!
Man, I bought replacement hoods for my brakes and put them on yesterday. What a pain! Like trying to stretch a rubber thimble over your head! After hours and more than a little cursing, I got 'em. Looking good. Almost back to its original 1990s beauty! HAAA!
[joedraper] Wednesday, June 15, 2011 1:18:36 PM
Uh I seen some hectic stuff with guys who didn't like helmets... And I' ve seen them save lives lotsa times! lol
Defo go cork and go adhesive well that's what I like anyways lol.
If you can't find padded cycling shorts... OUCH But running pants will do lol. Oh and if you do find cycling shorts you use chammy cream to lube the inside padding of the shorts and er "friction prone areas" lol. Trust me.. Never leave home without the stuff! My favourite gloves are serfas or you can try giro or specialized (expensive but oh so heavenly!)
Helmet go serfas or giro they're the most comfy.
On the running front my new asics are wearing in nicely now so I'm a happy camper with feet that feel great! lol now that I've stemmed the bleeding. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Sunday, June 12, 2011 2:57:24 PM)

First, no bike shop within an hours drive from here and even that place is shakey. That is why I did the entire rebuild myself. I built many a bike so it was just a matter of ordering the right parts. I laughed because I like to restore to original...meaning "vintage" so I see. Heh. Hoods for the Dia Compe breaks had pretty much turned to goo! They should be in next week. Still deciding if I want to replace my pedals or not. Ones I have now are merely functional. No toe-clips.
Perhaps we'll talk about WHERE to "lube up" in a PM sometime. LOL! I just used a bit o' Body Glide that I have from running and have managed to crank out a few 10+ milers in the past few days.
So, lycra shorts have no padding on the inside? I have been using my running shorts. Can't seem to find an old pair of riding shorts with a bit of padding on the inside of the thighs. That helped. Especially as it is so hot here.
Tape, now, I currently have it wrapped in leather. Switch to cork? Adhesive or non. Currently, I am using non. Gloves, check. I'll have to look for all this online. Any specific brand of anything you endorse, do tell!
Tell the next, thanks for the pointers! Oh yeah, BTW, I am still running so I already have my runner's tan down perfectly. Yup, feet are as white as ghosts! LOL!!

Well, first I reckon take the bike into your closest cycle shop and make sure it's set up correctly for your height, that can solve a lot of pain related probs lol. The saddle shouldn't really be to blame... Unfortunately you'll havet o toughen up your butt or give in to stupid looking shorts lol.. The padding in cycling shorts really helps and you naturally should lube up if you're doing long rides. Or whilst you're getting used to being back in the saddle. You could try out some sort of trendier looking mountain bike/downhill riding shorts that have the padding inside but look more like board shorts or we call them 'baggies' here. They'll be a bit more pricy or be brave and go for the lycra ones like we all do lol... At least the next time you go to the beach with your cycling short/sock and shirt tan other cyclists will look at you with that knowing look of respect lol. Tape is a bugger but I swear by it. Pain having to try to wind it on properly and when it gets sticky or really tacky you should replace but it should't be too often. Gloves are as important as a helmet in my books (you're wearing a helmet right?) Not only will it stop yo u sliding around the handlebars if you go down, you will be very thankful to still have skin on your hands... that takes forever to heal up if you don't have gloves on. The amount of times I've looked at my ripped up gloves and breathed a sigh of relief.... can't count them!
It gets easier on your body the more you ride and when running season starts up again you'll see your core is stronger and you'll feel stronger!

When we issued our press release to announce the farewell tour - we stated that it was the last major world tour for Judas Priest - nothing has changed - we didn't say it was the end of the band or that we were going to retire or the band was going to break up........... Just that it would be the last major world tour we would be doing which is still the case.
We have plans for a new album (which we have already announced in an earlier press release) plus possible future releases and we would still consider doing the odd live show - if it is something special or for a great cause - but no more world tours.
In other words. No more world tours, just limited engagements in festivals and perhaps some lightweight touring, but no more two year long world tours.

The saddle shouldn't really be to blame... Unfortunately you'll havet o toughen up your butt or give in to stupid looking shorts lol.. The padding in cycling shorts really helps and you naturally should lube up if you're doing long rides. Or whilst you're getting used to being back in the saddle. You could try out some sort of trendier looking mountain bike/downhill riding shorts that have the padding inside but look more like board shorts or we call them 'baggies' here. They'll be a bit more pricy or be brave and go for the lycra ones like we all do lol... At least the next time you go to the beach with your cycling short/sock and shirt tan other cyclists will look at you with that knowing look of respect lol. Tape is a bugger but I swear by it. Pain having to try to wind it on properly and when it gets sticky or really tacky you should replace but it should't be too often. Gloves are as important as a helmet in my books (you're wearing a helmet right?) Not only will it stop yo u sliding around the handlebars if you go down, you will be very thankful to still have skin on your hands... that takes forever to heal up if you don't have gloves on. The amount of times I've looked at my ripped up gloves and breathed a sigh of relief.... can't count them!
It gets easier on your body the more you ride and when running season starts up again you'll see your core is stronger and you'll feel stronger!
Hey Joe, you'd be proud of me. I've been biking like crazy lately. Decided that running in 100 degree F heat wasnt' enough so I refurbished my old road bike. Just figured out that it was now "vintage!" LOL! Old Nishiki Olympic 12 roadbike. Tried to restore everything back with original parts. So far, so good. Handlebar tape sucks, though. Cork the way to go? Also, I have ridden enough to say that my ass hurts! HAAAA! New seat or stupid biker shorts? Comeon now, tell the truth, do they make biker shorts that don't look stupid? Gloves worth it? Do tell.
I am just figuring out what the gears do. BWAHAAAAAAA! Pity the newbie!

PROBABLY JUST A CHEAP SEAT.HAD A FEW OF THOSE AND REPLACED THEM WITH OLDER BETTER QUALITY SEATS AND NICLY RUSTED JUST THE WAY I LIKE IT.
I AM NOT ONE FOR NEW THINGS
From my experience, anyone over the age of 21 who has not been on a bike in a long time will suffer loads of butt bone pain! Those seats are cruel.

I must say, we do have some wicked croquet games here. Especially funny when the poison oak is in full bloom. Adds a new aspect to the game.
