Love those gyro's.

Yummy’s on University has the best gyros in Denton.

No, his horrible screetching makes Bob Dylan sound as smooth as Mel Torme

Edit: His voice is worse than STevie Ray Vaughn's

I used to hit the city after midnight when working during college.....The Slaughtered Lamb is where the Peculiar Pub used to be before they moved to Bleecker St.....We would hit that Greek place Karavas which was on West 4th for a drunken gyro sandwich before heading home....Good times....

Not a place for live music, but does anybody else here miss Milady's on Prince?

 

[Montalban]

Any such list has to start with Bruce Springsteen then the Grateful Dead, Crosby Stills and Nash, the revamped Fleetwood Mac, and Bob Dylan has become an embarrassment.

 

[Montalban]

He sucks.

He's incredible. Not many people can sit on a stool with an acoustic guitar and harmonica and keep you thoroughly entertained for two hours.

Saw him once.


By the end of the show I wanted to be there less than he did. Which was hard, since he clearly hated everyone who paid money to see him sit on that stool.


Worst. Show. Ever.

BRAVO BRAVO

The first time I heard the Doors I barfed.

Well that would have made your moms cunt smell even worse.

I don't think Steely Dan is overrated at all. I've never heard of them referred to as one of the best.

Steely Dan had a very irritating sound. But I eventually got used to hearing "Deacon Blues."

The Doors overrated??

You never know what you are going to get from him but he is brilliant when he wants to be. I know him a little bit. I always tell people my claim to fame as a musician is that Eric Clapton once referred to my playing as "rubbish". I mentioned that once to Neil Young at an event I was at and he told me "Don't worry about it, he says that about everyone". Cracked me up.

I had the same experience as you with Bob Dylan two years ago. He clearly didn't want to be there and had no respect for the audience. Did not say a word to us the entire evening; not even "Hello Phoenix" at the beginning; not a single word. He cannot sing anymore either. It was horrendous.

The Doors overrated??

I have to agree about the Doors; over rated. All this talk about Morrison as a poet; good lord!
"Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name; hello, I love you, let me jump in your game" Sounds like a sixth grader's rhyming.

 

[BamaDude]

Man, was he high, or what?

 

[Montalban]

I loved early Steely Dan. Don't know anyone though who has ever seen them live since Fagen's stage fright was so bad and he couldn't sing live. They were gret on tape but I often wonder how, or if they played live at all.

The Doors overrated??

The Doors had a handful of really great songs, but most of their album tracks were trash. At least the ones I've heard.
