    Whitesnake is Awesome with a capital A
    
    I have seen them twice this last year and they've have put on 
    one of the best shows i've seen ...
    
    The only problem was that the show was to short. I can understand
    the first time they opened for Crue-
    
    I plan on seeing them the 25 of july at GW- I hope they change the
    show just a little bit.
    
    Viv is one of the best i've seen live this includes when he was
    with DIO.
    
    I hope a new record is in the making- what they have now should
    never break apart.
    
    just my opinion

    Whitesnake has got to be the best new(old)band of the year.  Just
    look who they have for a line-up.  Coverdale is great on vocals.
     Cambell is one of the best axe-men around.  An equal talent on
    the six string axe is Vandeberg.  As far as bassists go sarzo ranks
    way up there.  And nothing needs to be said for Tommy, he lets his
    drummin do the talkin.  I cant wait for this line-up to make an
    album of their own.  It should kick ass. Ive seen them twice and
    I am going again for the concerts on the river show in Manchester
    NH.  Whitesnake as they are should stat together for a long time.

    ps Has anyone heard anything about a new album????????
    
    

    
        Have I heard anything about a new album?  Yes ...
    
        When it comes out, it will have a whole bunch of songs on
        it, not previously done by them or anyone else.  The record
        will no doubt be black, with little teensy-weensy grooves a-
        round it - leading to the center.  I think they're also gonna
        draw a picture on the cover and write some stuff.
    
        Hope this helps.  8^)

    I've known this lady called Tara Sykes for a few years now and 
    last night I saw her on the bus as I was coming back from a guitar 
    lesson, guitar in hand.
                              
    She asked where I'd been so I told her.  She then told me that her
    hubbys brothers son, John, played guitar.
                                             
    "He's worked for all the good heavy metal bands" she said, "like
    Whitesnake and Thin Lizzy".              
                              
    I replied: "Sheeesh, I'd love to be a roadie"
                              
    "No, he's not a roadie, he actually plays for them".
                              
    Hang on I thought, JOHN SYKES - WHITESNAKE???? - THIN LIZZY??????
                          
                                  
    small world innit ??                        

    
    
    She said she'd bring him down the local for a pint or six. 
    
    {sigh} what it is to rub shoulders with the stars ;')

    okay ....

    		Last night I went to see Great White/ Whitesnake at
    Manchester "ON the River" and I must say it was the best concert
    I have seen yet. I only got to see the last three or so tunes that
    Great White did, which were one I didn't recognize, Save All Your
    Love, and Rock Me.  Great White sounded very good, the lead vocal-
    ist's voice was amazing (just as good as, if not better than on
    their albums).  The lead guitarist wasn't a Vivian, but his soloing
    had lots of feel to it, which is often lost in today's world of
    speed-demon clone players.  The drummer sounded really powerful
    and moved fast on those rides.  The tunes I saw impressed me alot.
    		Snake opened w/ Bad Boys and it cooked, the place exploded.
    I was about 15 rows back on a crate and had a great view of all
    the players.  They covered Slide It In, Slow An' Easy and Love Ain't
    No Stranger from the previous album, and all the new disc except
    Don't Turn Away.
    		Vivian used his Kramer NightSwan the whole show and
    it sounded incredible.  The sound was clean and booming. Vivian
    seemed to alot of long form diminished and minor scales in soloing,
    and when he used minor scales he seemed to prefer the bottom three
    strings.  He used very little tapping, as I believe both guitarists
    have and continue to establish their own unique playing identities.
    When Vivian did blues soloing (which sounded great, like you were
    at a Miss. delta bar or something!!) he seemed to move up and down
    the neck alot, not using scales but doing a bend or "right hand
    behind the left" pull up. GREAT stuff from VC.
    		Adrian played two different Peavey Nitros.  I never
    liked ANY Peavey guitars, but his sounded FANTASTIC.  He also used
    a purple Fernandes, real close to his "Here I Go Again" one.  Adrian
    loved to use harmonic and melodic minor for solos, and I think he
    did several classical bits (a bouree or caprice maybe??), and he
    was both techinically and harmonically brilliant.  Adrian and Vivian
    also did a 5 min. duo which was awesome.  
    		Rudy and Tommy were smokin', Tommy had a kick solo,
    and Rudy was flying around the whole night, a great showman.
    
    		Coverdale IS melodic medal.  He sounded JUST like the
    studio, always had the crowd involved, and was hysterical to boot.
    His vocal range was astounding, every song came out polished and
    grabbing you by the throat. Once again, best show I ever saw, (8th
    one), hands down.

    I went to see Robert Plant on Monday night in Providence, and

    "I got into town yesterday, and was a bit mixed up. I thought we
    were playing here last night, but I guess I was wrong". 
    
    And who did play there the previous night?

    re. 2
    
    			YES.....
    

    Question:
    
    I have beening hearing a lotta scuttlebutt about how Whitesnake
    is a Zep ripoff (particularly in interviews with Robert Plant).  I
    would have never thought of this myself.  Personally, in their his
    hits, I never noticed much similarity.  Have you noticed it?  Is
    it in stuff off the albums that doesn't hit the radio, or what?
    
    gh

    
    
    	If we're going to take LZ ripoff, Kingdom Come 
    	is before Whitesnake (IMO)
    
    	/tig!
    

    I'm glad to hear of someone else that is "unaware" of the
    Whitesnake/Zeppelin similarity.  I missed the boat I guess. Coverdale
    seems a little preoccupied with hearing his own voice ... I mean
    to me he wails away for bars upon bars that should be filled with
    a subtle lead (a stringsmith raises his ugly head ...), Plant did
    the same thing... other than that I can't see much comparison.
    
    
    				Mr Scary II 

Oh, I definitely see some similiarities between Whitesnake and LZ.
Probably not so much in the 'hits' like "Is This Love" or "Here I Go 
Again", but I definitely hear it in "Still of the Night" and "Slow
and Easy".

Like Jimmy Page's comment on when he first saw the "Still of the Night" 
video, and the guitarist pulled out a bow:

"I fell out of my chair, 'cause I was laughing so hard!"

There is no doubt in my mind where Whitesnake got their sound from.

    Enough random "clone" cheap shots at Whitesnake.  If you're going
    to make a shot, at least be able to back it up with a real statement
    (i.e. Plant oversings, so does Coverdale from Mr Scary II). 
    
    	This is a note which shows someone who's at least thinking for
    himself and investigating the music. Why listen to the Boston Herald's
    music review (or anything in that rag)?  I bet the reveiwer doesn't
    even know his order of sharps and flats. A real valid #ucking musician,
    obviously.
    
    	I'd also like to say I have 7 Led Zep albums and Zep is probably
    my favorite band of all time.  Having said that, now for the hardware.
    
    	Jimmy Page has no  *ucking right to cut down musicians of the likes of
    Vandenberg or Campbell.  I saw these two play live, and they were
    the most fluent live guitarists I have ever seen (I have played
    guitar intensely for 5 years, and would know a blatant mistake if
    I heard/saw one).  Page is INFAMOUS for live screw-ups (Live Aid,
    Atlantic Reunion, countless concerts). Four of my cousins ( 2 are
    in working bands) said Jimmy was the worst live player they ever
    saw.  Jimmy's current work is awful.  I have heard Outrider, it
    is countless slide guitars slurred incohesively, raunchy 5 chords
    and repetitive pentatonic blues.  JImmy is a burnt out star lashing
    out at someone who's making it.
    
    	Plant has my 2nd fav voice of all time (Greg Lake 1st).  His
    vocal range and variety of voices astound me.  Principle of Moments
    and Pictures at 11 are GREAT albums.  He took on the visionary Robbie
    Blunt and made 2 landmark progressive/mystic pop albums.  Big Log
    is an amazing guitar song.  
    
    	This whole time during the early/mid 80's, Plant turned a blind
    eye to Led Zep, but with CLASS, out of respect for Bonham.  It was
    time to get on with it, music to be written, etc.  Even in his recent
    Rolling Stone Interview he intelligently brushed aside the clone
    questions, being a thinking man when he could have looked like a
    real ass*ole like Page.  Now, a recent wave of clever remarks from
    Robert.  Why does eveyone love Now and Zen?  It is self-indulgent
    top 40 trash from a genius.  
    	Get off the blind Zep love trip.....take 'Snake for what they
    are and Page for what he isn't.
    
    
    				Bruce McCormack

    What about old/new Whitesnake and the usual one about is WHITESNAKE
    SELLING OUT!
    I read a recent interview with cozy powell and he was saying that
    the reason he left the snakes was because of the direction the
    music/image was taking. I can also remember an interview with Coverdale
    just after Slide it In was released and he was saying that the image
    was unimportant but it was the rock & roll/blues that was important.
    There has been a huge change in the snakes, I seen them on the Saints
    & Sinners tour and on the 1987 tour and to be quite honest I was
    dissapointed with what I saw on the 1987 tour as they appeared to
    be just another band where the image was used to its limits.
    I am in no way slagging off the quality of the musicians in this
    note, I am just sorry to see whitesnake heading down the image path
    like most other groups in order to sell more albums.
    
    P.S. Tony, what did you think of M.S.G.? They sounded excellent
    up in Scotland although the didn't get any crowd reaction until
    they played a couple of old UFO tracks. 

    
    
    M.S.G. kicked total ass!!!! Old Robin McAuley has a real good voice,
    old Micheal "I'm a traditionalist" Shenker was cookin' and the guitar
    work of Mitch Perry was wicked.  Me and the group I was with really
    enjoyed them, and they got a *great* reaction from the crowd.  They
    did do some great UFO tracks too.                       
         
    -Tony

    
    	Vivian Campbell has left Whitesnake.
    
    	The reason given by Coverdale was 'musical differences'. The
    split was a band decision, and Adrian will take over all guitar
    work.
    	This news was on MTV, and most of their info is correct, so
    it looks real...
    

VIV needs his own band now!!!!

    Thank god for that!!!!!!!!
                                 
    I am a big Whitesnake fan (including the old 'Trouble' stuff). 
    I am also a big Campbell fan (His work on Dio's Holy Diver is 
    awsome), but Campbell playing for Whitesnake is like Kirk 
    Hammett playing for Poison.  
                                 
    I'm sure that Adrian Vandenburg is capable of the job.  Now if only
    he'd but that f!@#$%^ violin bow away when he mimes to the solo
    on "Still of the night"......

    Isn't Whitesnake's new album due out in stores soon. Could've sworn
    they said March 20th or so?????
    
    
    
    

    
    Still no new album??
    
    I used to be a big fan of Whitesnake, particularly in the Marsden/Moody
    days, I got all the Coverdale albums there were. Last great concert
    was the Donnington '83 headline which brought tears to the eyes
    
    Saw them about a year ago with MSG supporting and twas good, but
    I miss the blues. MSG nearly blew them away. 

    /Speedking
    

                               
    >> MSG nearly blew them away. 
           
    I saw them with MSG back in 87 (I think) - and I nearly choked on my 
    coffe when I read this !!

    
    Ok, Ok, what I meant was MSG exceeded my expectations but Whitesnake
    didn't - I would've liked em to played some more of the old songs,
    not just "Anal Love" but "Fuel for your Oven" or whatever
    
    /Speedking
    

    
    AH ! hokay !

    I seen Whitesnake on the last night of their British tour with MSG
    supporting and I thought MSG sounded much better than Whitesnake.
    Maybe I was biased as I was a big fan of Shenker with UFO but MSG
    sound quality and tightness was much better than Whitesnakes.
    
    I am a big fan of Whitesnake but on that night they sounded like
    sh*t.
    

    
    
    	According to Metal Edge (sigh...this gets monotonous, y'know?!)
    	copied without permission
    
    	...Alas, the Whitesnake album has been delayed again - it's
    	now due in October or November.
    
    	Tigga~~~

    So what's new? EVERY Whitsnake album is delayed (remember 1987?)
    
    Keef

    
    And "Slide it in" as i remember - and when we finally got it
    the mix was dubious. I went straight out and bought the American
    remix version (unfortunately on picture-disc). I gather the American
    version is now available on 'normal' vinyl as an import.
    
    /speedking
    

I've found out that Whitesnakes gives you a lot more when you buy it on CD. 
The CD "David Coverdale's Whitesnakes" goes with another LP called "Northwind" 
so total time is over 70 minutes.
Another example is the excelent "Best of Whitesnake" which has been extended 
with 5 newer tunes (from "Saints & Sinner" and "Slide it in") and run now for 
65 minutes.

It's very nice from the record company

            "Slip of the Tongue"

    be going to AMES to buy the tape.

        ;')   'catch ya later
    
    

    I heard one song off it the other morning on the way in and while it
    was *ok*, I expected to hear Steve Vai wailing away and I didn't.  It
    could have been any of about a million guitar players, nothing
    distinctive at all.  What a waste of his talent...
    
    Greg

    Greg,
    	I heard some new Whitesnake tunes and thought that Steve
    added a nice new dimension to their sound. 
    	Why is it a waste of his talent because he's not wailing
    away left and right? It's Whitesnake, not Whitesnake with Steve
    Vai. I could definitely hear his influence/playing in the songs
    I heard.
    
    /Motorbreath

    
    Steve Vai wnats to be part of the band Whitesnake, not a guitar
    hero (he already is that in his own right). Whitesnake is not
    specifically a 'guitarists band". Its music (damn good too) for
     everyone.
    
    You wanna see Vai wail then go see Whitesnake live when they tour.
            
    just MO.

    
    Heard one song, "Fool for your love" or something like that on the
    radio yesterday.  Great song, but it's typical and nothing different
    than all the other Whitesnake.  Gotta agree, Steve doesn't really
    "add" anything, it could've been any of another 1000 guitarist's
    doing this song.  But he joined a "band" finally, not a bunch of
    "individuals" and he's playing "with" them.  Everyone knows what
    he can do on the guitar, if you don't then you must have been sleeping
    through the past five-ten years.  He's playing for the band, and
    thats something I can respect 'cuz he's not out there for himself
    now.
    
    Mr. Ed

    
    Fool for you loving is an old tune.....can't remember which lp it first
    appeared on.
    
    flip

    
    So did they release it again on this new album or what?
    
    Mr. Ed

    
    Yes.
    
    flip

    Yo Flip...I thought your P_N said "shake you sharky bites"
    
    I said to myself, what'sFLip doing with Shark's in her P_N?!?

    
    Ugh!  What a horrid thought!
    
    Talking of P_N's what is the snake statues now?
    
    Flip

    FYI,
    
    Fool For Your Lovin' is from Ready And Willin'.

    I thought that it sounded like a Whitesnake song with Steve Vai playing
    a solo.  Like, it could have been any 'snake song, but they just added
    a flashy guitarist.

    
    	I like it...but like said before , sounds like another tune.
    	I think it sounds most like "Give All Your Love Tonight"
    

    re: .46
    
    Well, I only heard that one song, so use whatever sized salt is
    necessary...  (BTW, it was the remake of "Fool For Your Lovin'")
    
    But, I personally feel that if you're going to have someone capable of
    playing things that few people on this earth could, like Steve Vai, in
    a band, you should utilize that unique capability instead of having him
    play what any of 100,000 other guitarists could play.  I call that a
    waste of talant. 
    
    If that's Steves choice, I can respect that, but I seriously doubt that
    it is.  I'm all for being a team player, but I don't think that
    restricts you to playing mundane power chords.
    
    re: .55
    
    >Like, it could have been any 'snake song, but they just added
    >a flashy guitarist.
    
    I always thought that both Viv Campbell and Adrien Vandenberg were
    pretty flashy guitarists, at least until they started playing in
    Whitesnake.  
    
    My opinion is that Coverdale supresses the flash by restricting what
    his 'backing guitars' can play.  I also beleive that he thinks *he* is
    Whitesnake and can mandate whatever he wants.  He's got a great voice,
    but I always thought that W-snake could have been a much better band if
    they took a few more chances and spiced things up a bit.  Their sound
    is right out of the early '70s (with better/more production).

    re. .57 
    
    	about Viv and Adrian
    
    	Unless you're referring to Whitsenake live you can't say that
    Campbell and Vandenberg were stifled by Coverdale.  John Sykes, now
    in Blue Murder and formerly of Thin Lizzy and Tygers of Pan Tang, was
    the guitarist who recorded both the "Whitesnake" and "Slide it In"
    albums.  Of course, HIS talent may have been suppressed by Coverdale's
    control.
    
    					the Bomb

    I saw an interview with Vai on MTV this weekend and he said that
    most of the album was complete when he signed on and all he did
    was come in and do the leads, or as he put it .....
    
    "... decorate it like a Christmas Tree ....".  Good choice of words
    Steve !  I'm curious to hear this album - especaiily hearing Vai
    with Coverdale.   And wouldn't you hate to be in Adrian Vandenburg's
    shoes right now, playing opposite Steve Vai ?  Tough act to compete
    with ....
    
    
    
    
    				Scary

    re.60
    actually it was a band decision (according to Adrian and David)
    to choose Vai. They wanted the best.
    Vandenberg said that he was glad they had Steve because it
    enabled him to write what he wanted, because he knows that
    Vai can play the guitar parts he writes. 
    /Motorbreath

    
    	On the album notes, it says Adrian was unable to play on the album
    due to injury, and Steve fulfilled "all guitar responsibilities'.
    
    	And with that said...please, get John Sykes back!
    
    	Sorry, but it doesn't live up to the last album.  Steve won't turn
    off the damn Harmonizer, giving a lot of his leads that "Just Like
    Paradise" feel.  Nice little half-step progression in "Judgement
    Day"... why does "Kashmir" suddenly come to mind?
    
    	Maybe it'll take some getting used to...
    
    
    							Lf
    

    Hang on, hang on.
    
    Does this mean its released yet ?

    
    	It's supposeta be out next week over here.
    
    							GTI
    

    
    	It's out in the states.  That s*cks if it hasn't been released in
    the UK yet, seeing that they've only been 'big' here for a couple years
    but they've been HUGE there for a long time...
    
    
    								Lf
    

     Forget Sykes, Vandenberg and Via. All excellent guitarists I grant
    you, but Whitesnake ain't been the same since Marsden and Moody
    left! In those days, the band was a great R&B band with a sound
    totally different to any other "metal" groups around at the time.
    Now, they sound like just another tired American-Metal band. Coverdale
    is capable of better things...
    
    I await the release of the next album with interest but I doubt
    that it will change my opinion. And surely they haven't re-done
    "Fool for your Lovin'" - Whitesnake's best ever.
    
    

    Re .-1 
    
    Whooooops, for "Via" read "Vai"

    
    Is "Fool For Your Loving" a re-release/remake off a previous  
    album?  I couldn't find it, I did find the original album that "crying
    in the rain" and "here I go again" were on.
    
    Mr. Ed...

    
    Yep, FFYL was on Ready and Willing.

    I agree with Andy, old Whitesnake and new Whitesnake are two totally
    different bands - but I love 'em both for different reasons.
                                               
    Check out David Coverdale's "North Winds" real sort of bluesy with
    a hint of gospel. Its pretty good (kinda old though).
                                               
    Comparing the likes of Campbell/Vandenberg and Vai to Moody/Marsden
    etc.. is like comparing a Porshe 954 to an old Bentley. They are
    both great, but apeal to different people for different reasons.

    YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!
    
    I just spoke to my rep and he has a copy of the new album for me
    to collect tomorrow 8^).
    
    UK Release is 13th November.
    -Tony

    I just read this so tomorrow for me is today...
    
    Would be very interested in a review thou' as from all accounts
    it ain't nearly so good as 1987.
    
    
    Bonzo

         
    Well, I got the tape Saturday and I got the CD today.
         
    Its good. Its a bit more bluesy than 1987, but again, its completely
    different from old Whitesnake. Steve Vai's playing DOES stick out.
    His style and influence is easily recognisable. Coverdales lyrics
    are as ambiguious as ever. Like on "Slip of the Tongue" is goes
    "Any time, Any place, I'm just the fool who puts a smile on your
    face". Think about it 8^).
         
    Its heavier than the last album too, and has some great singles
    on it (although "Fool for you loving" is a weird choice for the
    first single).
         
    A good album.
    -Tony

Ditto, just got the CD, I'd much agree with Tony.

POKE = Vulgar word for Sexual Intercourse. Used extensively in the North.

    Wasn't the working title for the album "Liquor & Poker" ??
    
    /speedking  ;-) ;-)

    
    
    No he made that one up as a working title for 1987, along with
    
    Whip it out, wipe it off, and slide it back in again.
    
    This was from an interview I saw with Dante Bonnuto of Kerrang.

    Got the new album Friday.  Not too shabby.  Not as hot as the last,
    but it should do good regardless, especially with the Steve Vai
    fanatics.  Don't hear any guitar heroics, but you can definetely
    hear him in there.  I like.  Give it a 6 out of 10.
    
    Mr. Ed...
    

    
    I like the new album alot even if it hasn't the immediate appeal that 
    '87 has or the obvious singles. Mr Vai stands out like a sore thumb
    and i think his playing is refreashing and contributes well alongside
    Mr Coverdale's voice. Kerrang reviewed  the album as selling out on the
    British rock origins that the band once had, and that Mr Vai was the 
    only decent thing about the album, i think this is way OTT and also
    somewhat narrow minded. After a few spins, i was definitly hooked and
    am looking forward to laughing at Kerrang when they get to eat their
    words. 
      
     It must be extremely frustrating for any band desperate to pen just
    one good rock single, when some of these bands can reel them of like
    there's no tomorrow.
    
     Roll on tour dates and let's hope they play more than just Donington
    next year, if the event even goes ahead.
    
    
    
    Prince Of The Dawn.

    >Mr. Vai stands out like a sore thumb...
    
    Yes, that is exactly what I thought.  Doesn't feel right.  Sykes was
    perfect in that band.  Can't beat him.
    
    Steve

    re.85
    about the bands wishing they could get ONE good rock single...
    I think that everytime some artist is slammed by critics, but 
    the public eats up their stuff cuz it's great. 
    
    /Motorbreath

    
    
    Regardless, I put money on the album going at least double platinum
    within 8 months just on the momentum and memories of the last album!
    
    
    Mr. Ed...

    
    Who gives a flying fart about media critics anyway ?
         
    A record review is one journalists opinion (he/she may not even
    be a rock fan).                            
                                               
    Personally, I *never* listen much to reviews - if I like a bands
    older stuff I'll buy the new album - and I'll listen to new bands
    if I hear/see them or if I get it free from my rep.
         
    -Tony

    of whitesnake.  I suppose I'm just a traditionalist at heart!
    
    Bonzo _believe_that_and_you'll_beleive_anything!

    I don't know... I finally heard another album from Whitesnake, called
    Slide it In. It's got some great cuts on it, Spit it Out's a riot,
    Standing in the Shadow is good, Slow an' Easy, Love ain't no
    Stranger...
    but I still like their last album more (previous to Slip of the Tongue,
    which is so Spinal Tap - Smell the Glove or whatever it was) than
    Slide it In. As a matter-of-fact, if Slide it In is what you consider
    'old Whitesnake', then I don't see much of a difference between the
    styles of both albums, except for a '70's-ish guitar sound on  
    a couple songs of SLide it In.
    
    	Also, Pete, you're right...this album is so laden with
    sickening songs about LOVE. That's fine, but every song???
    Yak.
    
    /Motorbreath

    
    	"Slide It In" came out in about 1983 or so, so I wouldn't
    	call that "old Whitesnake".
    
    	It's a great album though.

    1p less than a tenner (which is not a bad buy).
    
    Fav early Whitesnake tune has to be "Queen of Hearts"..

    Another vote for "Queen of Hearts"  (on Northwinds & Snakebite)

    inrtuctional tape, over and over again.  I *tried* to listen to
    OFR all the way through, but after a few cuts it was evident that
    I didn't need to - I mean, every riff sounded like the last.  Sorta
    like Vinnie Vincent's Invasion.  Every trick/lick in every song

    	I think Tawny looked better before she bleached her hair.
    	I would have *killed* for hair like that....bleaching it 
    	was a mistake.
    

    i realize i'm interrupting this burning discussion on tawnys' new
    blonde locks, but before that continues.....could someone please place
    a review of the show in here?......aside from Vai being god...how was
    Coverdales' voice and Adrian, etc.........you can even throw in an
    impression or two of the opening band as well......for those of us who
    couldn't go...................thanks................../karen

    IMHO....KIX really kicked !!!!!  I was very impressed with
    them....the sound was crisp and clear.  The vocals were great
    and all in all I'd definitely see them again....
    
    As for Whitesnake.....they were good not great.  I keep wanting
    to quote from Amadeus...."too many notes".  It was almost to
    cluttered....know what I mean?   I thought Coverdale's voice
    was in pretty good form.  
    
    Just my opinion....

    ooooops.....;-0

    	RE: Karen
    
    	A review?  Well, I thought the same as Candy.  Kix was fantastic!
    	They really came out and performed fantastically!  Lots of
    	energy and without a hitch.
                
    	Vai ... The man is phenomenal on guitar.  For me to say
    	that is a definite compliment since I don't know hide or hair
    	about the technical aspects of playing. He sounded great.
                
    	BUT, Whitesnake on a whole was merely okay.  A solo from Adrian,
    	a solo from Aldridge and a solo from Vai really cluttered things
    	up and prevented them from doing more songs. (all IMHO)
    
    	I can't really say much more since nothing stood out to
    	comment on.
    
    	Buck, Rob, Chris, R.C. ...what'd you guys think?
    
    	Tigga~~~
                
    	        

    KIX...ok, like they're one of my favorite bands now!!!  They were 
    really great in concert...MUCH better than the last time I saw them!  
    I really liked their raw sound, and the set they played was well paced. 
    They ended the night with a three-hit bang:  Don't Close You Eyes--Blow
    My Fuse--Cold Blooded...it really packed a punch!
    
    Whitensake...again, they were *ok*.  I mean, they had the big Stage,
    all the lights, they were LOUD, but I thought their set was boring
    (poorly paced), and I got bored (How bout you, Sandra?).  Vandenburg
    was screwing up his guitar playing...either he is under pressure
    playing in a band with Vai, or his playing isn't quite back up to speed
    after that hand accident he had.  Vai was great, but I hated their set
    (they played too much new stuff, and I don't like the new album) and
    very few old tunes!  I thought the ensemble as a whole was much better
    and tighter than the 87/88 tour, but the Jan. 88 shows had much more
    excitement IMHO.

    	technical aspects of guitar-playing, and then you consider

    Which trick is that ?
                    
    Is that when Vai depressess the whammy and strokes the strings to
    get that kinda 'purring' sound ?
                    
    -Tone

    Yeah, plus the various "wah" tricks for the meows.  I built a patch on
    my GP-8 to handle that.  I use the Dynamic Filter to get the wah and
    assign the EV-5 pedal for Master Volume.  Now *THAT* is how you make a
    Kitty Hawk rig purr !

    Does anybody else think that "The Kittens Got Claws" has an AC/DC
    kinda groove to it ? I can just picture ol' Angus bobin' up and 
    down 8^).
         
    -Tone

     Well it has been a long time since I have been in HM notes, but I
    thought I would take a look and see what is going on. I went and saw WS
    last week in Columbia S.C. They didn't have Kix open for them
    unfortunatly. Instead they had Bad English. I only caught the end of BE
    having arrived to the show late. What I did see of them was *ok*
    especially if you are an ex Journey fan. Whitesnake on the other hand
    was great IMO. of course it may have had something to do with the great
    seat I had; third row floor, center stage. It was like having them
    perform for me personally. Vie was fantastic, I mean what can you
    actually say about the man. I believe he can actually strech his hand
    form one end of the neck to the other. Personally I enjoyed the guitar
    solos of both players. Then again they were doing it right in fornt of
    me. Adrian BTW did a very good job on his solo, it seemed like there
    was plenty of speed to me. All in all I thought it was a very good show
    except that I think I would have rather have seen Kix than Bad English.

    	After about 6 months of listening to this Cd, I got to say that
    "Slip of the tounge" is one the best recordings around! Great
    sound,great lyrics, and great guitar notes...Couldn't live without it!
    
    B.A.

	Okay, so maybe I'm just getting older, but here's how I
	felt about the Whitesnake show.  I've now seen them 5
	times and this show was definitely my least favorite.

	They were on their 3rd show in a row.  Coverdale's voice
	sounded awful.  Also, the crowd wasn't really into it
	for some reason - maybe because it was kind of cold.

	The rest of the band was great as far as musicianship is
	concerned.  They all did solos and Vai's was incredible!

	The part I really didn't like at all was all of the 
	choreography and guitar-kissing and tongue wiggling and
	hip-swiveling at the cameras (Shoreline has big screens so
	the people in the back rows and the people on the lawn can
	see the show).
	
	Everything was just TOO slick.  Every move was calculated.
	Too Poseur-ish for me.  I thought it was getting a little
	too polished two years ago - I was really totally turned
	off by it this time.  Why do they want to make their what
	are supposed to be LIVE shows, look just like an MTV video?

      Re: -1
    
      The reason little has been said about Whitesnake recently is that
    they have been touring with the Monsters of Rock (Poison, Quireboys,
    Aerosmith et al) so most of the talk about them is in relation to this. 
    There is another note for this but I can't remmber where.
    
    The lead guitarist for Whitesnake is currently Steve Vai (arguably the
    greatest guitarist in the rock world today).  There had been rumours
    about a split with Whitesnake, but Coverdale (singer) and Vai went on
    record during the Monsters of Rock to scotch that rumour "We are all
    just one big happy family!" type speech.
    
    Vai has played alongside such notables as David Lee Roth and Frank
    Zappa in the past and recently released a brilliant (guitar only)
    composition album callled 'Passion and Warfare'.  If you like guitar
    you should check this out as it is essential.

    	I read in the April issue of Rip that Whitesnake is
    	no more.  David Coverdale has gone "on his own" for
    	awhile and Steve Vai is supposed to be trying to find
    	a bassist and vocalist to form something on his own.
    
    	I can't remember word for word what was said so if
    	anyone is interested in the exact quote, let me know
    	and I'll try to post it tomorrow when the mag is in
    	front of me.

      John Sykes was the guitar player on the WHitesnake album, the one
    before Slip..... It wasn't till after the album was released that
    Adrian Vandenberg and Vivian Campbell joined, later Vai. No doubt
    another album with Sykes would be on target for Coverdale if he
    can swing it.

    didn't like it as much as his compositions on WS 87...not melodic
    enough for this PRKG(tm)!

    So what is left for David Coverdale now.  He has just about done it all
    in his career, fronted some of the most awesome HM bands ever, but I
    can't help feeling that he is knocking on a bit now!
    
    He still has a good voice but it is well past the Geoff Tate ranges!
    Perhaps he could get together with Tyler and do a duet (^8*!

    Tawney is the co-host of America's Funniest People on ABC, Sunday

Did anyone ever notice that the whitesnake video "Here we Go Again" was done
twice.  The second time they edited out Tawny's um, er, boob which fell out

    No way Greg! I can't believe you have even ONE gray hair. If you do
    have some, you must already be using the Grecian!!! 8^)

Greg,

You need to use that product named after you.  Have you seen the 30 minute
ad for GLH which you spray on your hair to make your hair "fuller".  

BFD, it's just a can of krylon spray paint that colors your head black.

>    and I'll bet Heather put it there ;) 
    
    Actually, I think Digital put it there...

    
    Well, its rumoured that David Coverdales new project with Jimmy Page
    have recruited the ex Little Angels/Cult drummer (whassis name?).
    
    A reliable source informs me that he's pretty good, so should be
    interesting. Having said that, the guy will have a LONG way to go to
    beat Tommy Aldridge. Anybody know whos playing bass or do I still have
    a chance ? 8^)

    	Picked up these 4 last night for $3.33 each [bargain bin]:
    
    	Lovehunter
	Trouble
	Snakebite
	Come An' Get It
    
    	Is this good stuff, or what?  I have to listen to Barbra
    	Streisand's greatest hits and "Havin' a Bad Day" before I
    	get to them.
    

    
    this was Whitesnake at their very bluesy best.When they got all posey
    with the hair tossing and stuff they lost a lot of fans!
    
    
    Lovehunter is particularly good.

    	Barbra and Zappa were full price, unfortunately.
    
    
    	RE: Crazy_Al
    
    	Barbra is excellent!!  I bought it mostly for "No More Tears",
    	the duet with Donna Summer, but I like Barbra's voice so will	
    	definitely listen to the whole thing.
    

    Now Barbra is Rippin_Off Ozzy Tunes!!!.

    Barbara Streisand? She's nowhere near as good as Shirley Bassey. The
    undisputed Queen of overdoing it.

Nope, she dumped him...
