i was checking out alice in chains' new album "black gives way to blue" and how they've replaced deceased frontman layne staley with william duvall.
it got me thinking of other bands that have done this, like journey replacing steve perry with steve augeri and arnel pineda, and inxs replacing michael hutchence with j.d.
fortune.
That being said, bands who hire a sound-alike for the sake of one drive me nuts, I like it when a singer brings another dimension, like w/ AC/DC. I prefer Bon Scott, but Johnson definitely brings his own thing. I liked Tim "Ripper" Owens in Judas Priest

And sometimes when they bring in someone who sounds totally different, it's an epic fail, i.e Blaze Bailey w/ Iron Maiden, or John Corabi w/ Motley Crue.

In the case of JD, he can sound like Hutchence, but he also has his "own" voice. I can dig it. Van Halen w/ Sammy Hagar was great as it's own animal, but when he tried singing DLR songs, it was plain awful.

The police are good at putting criminals in jail, that is what they do. Polanski paid a settlement to the girl he injured. In many countries it is called a payment for loss of honor. Not much can be gained now after 30 years. Let him appolgize, maybe spend a month in jail and lets be finished with it.
I don't give a shit about "other countries" and how they buy off the victims. He ass-raped a little girl. There was no "loss of honor" to her, she didn't do a fucking thing wrong. A month, my ass, he should be shot.

Why wasn't the mother prosecuted too?????
Umm, maybe because Polanski lied to her, and she was under the impression that her daughters friend was going with, and Roman manipulated that situation? Maybe because her mom brought charges against him?

Looks like Woody Allen signed the petition to free him. What a dumbass.
happified is a real watchtower word(tm), by the way!.
if you want to give the wts credit for anything, then at least give them credit for their remarkably simple solution to every ill suffered by mankind.. it is a "one size fits all" solution and might be part of the appeal the wts has attracting people who have a hard time with reason and common sense.. they won't specifically tell you what that solution is, though.
if they did, they would even get less converts than they get now, and currently they ain't gettin' many.
Sweet!
i met two sisters while i was walking my dog.
of course they were quick to stop and talk to and easy mark like me.
things did not go as they expected.
Right on.
