Sonic v Bengal debate thread :D

That is great! I guess it's all in the ears of the hearer...

Hearer? Is that a word?

I don't know about that one. Though, I do know that beauty is in the eyes of the beer holder.

[Bengal]

and the biggest corporate whore....


somehow in amore factual world, i don't think their record sales are as impressive as some.

How many gold albums you got?

[Bengal]

OK, you are going to compair Bon Jovi to KISS? Are you freakin' kidding me? Bon Jovi to KISS?

Maybe that "vagina" comment was spot on...

[Cygnus X1]

Where was I?
Oh, yeah. Beer.

Thanks, Joe. I almost got lost.

A) i'm not drinking, and b) as a rock band (yes both are ROCK bands) i'm pretty sure bon jovi have sold more records than kiss. and wrote some cooler songs. the fact is they are both rock bands, and in the real world which you might not be familiar with, bon jovi have sold more records. deal with it.

p.s. shooting jon bon jovi is not a viable option...

Hey, SS. Life is far more civil in the Lounge.
Why do we come out and slum around with the commoners?

Because it's fun! That's why!

OK. Well let me ask you an honest question...

Do you think more people were influenced by KISS or by Bon Jovi?

Fuck album sales. Any pre-teen chick can buy a Bon Jovi album...

Album sales doesn't equate greatness either. If that's the case, Michael Jackson rules just about everyone. And Celine Dion and Garth Brooks and (insert lame band/musician here)...

Hey, don't let me keep you here. You can head back to that den of porn anytime you want...

What's the saying? "Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya"? Figured you being from South Carolina would like the lord reference...

depends who u ask, i could think of afew on both sides. and loads more infuenced by led zep and aersmith than kiss easily.

umm yes it does pretty much. generally people buy albums because they are good. clearly bon jovi makes good abums, and clearly they have a more universal appeal than kiss, people of all ages dance to bon jovi. when was the last time u saw a teenager dance to kiss?


and michael jakson used to be fucking good. don't knock him, he may be a little misguided and screwed in the head these daysm but he's don't some fantastic stuff and always picked some really top notvh musicians to work with.

So? You hate the lord? Come on Cyg, I bet you have a Bible on the nightstand next to your bed right now...

[sonicsamurai]

Keep it on topic. We are not talking about Aerosmith or Led Zepplin. We are talking about Bon Jovi, remember?

I never see an article with someone in Guitar World that says they were influenced by Richie Sambora or Bon Jovi. But I do see alot of dap given to KISS and Ace in general. Dime had him tatooed on his chest, remember?

So album sales equals greatness? Britney Spears "Hit me baby one more time" or whatever the fuck it's callled is better than Radioheads "OK Computer"? Must be, it sold more...

Who cares what teenage girls dance to? I could give a flying fuck about that. If so, I'd be listening to the Pet Shop Boys right now. But I'm not, I'm listening to Flotsam and Jetsam, a band who has said they were influenced by KISS. Go figure...

But you care about what teenage girls dance to? If thats the case, you must be a teenage boy. That's the only answer that can make any sense...

Michael Jackson blows. Plain and simple. He was good at one time, but not now. I don't give a flying fuck who he had play guitar for him. Jennifer Baten is WAAAAAAAY overrated...

[sully]

hahah!!! watch it!! u dirty turk


for my back length, my guitar hangs at a good height. if u look at most low slung guitarists they have short backs and long arms. i have huge back and long arms. i also can't help it if my junk hangs too damn low

nah. i'm 6'4, have a good wingspan, and understand the importance of guitar placement. unless your torso is 4 feet long, you have no argument.


oh. i also tuck my wang into my socks.

sully

shut up. he was good at one time yes, and funnily enough thats where he sold his many millions of records. suprised?

and maybe britney spears is better...its called pop music because its popular, oddly enuff...radiohead? bag of shite if u ask me. his whiney, poorly pronounced voice annoys the hell out of me

and my orignainal statement was all of those bands have sold more than kiss, so my point is still relevant. they've had a much bigger influence than kiss.

so dime was that much of a fanboy? who cares? thats one person.


...who the hell dances to the petshop boys? queer
