650.0. "Danger Danger" by RIGEL4::JBONNO (Auburn Tigers: 1989 SEC CHAMPS) Tue Sep 05 1989 13:27

    Well, as requested by Alan, I will give you my thoughts about a
    new band, Danger Danger.
    
    My brother bought the tape a few weeks ago, and I have listened
    to it a couple of times.  There is nothing on the tape that really
    comes out and grabs my attention.  I am really not sure if this
    band is heavy metal.  There are a lot of keyboards in it, so it
    might be described as hard rock.  Most of the songs on the album
    sound the same, and it also has a couple of ballads on there too.
    
    If any of you have heard of a band called Prophet, then you will
    understand when I say Danger Danger sounds a lot like Prophet. 
    In fact, it is almost identical.  Maybe someone could start a note
    on Prophet.
    
    Oh well, that is my .02 cents worth.  All in all, it is a so-so
    album.  Nothing really great, but nothing really terrible.

650.2What's with all these "dangerous" bands lately?CSC32::G_HOUSEDesperate but not seriousWed Sep 06 1989 00:018
    Interesting...I was wondering who did that song.
    
    Never heard of the band before, but I heard the song a few days ago and
    missed the announcement of who played it.  I really don't remember much
    about it, but must have been at least a little interested in it to have
    thought that.  Have to listen for it again.

650.3good guitar work...CASEE::LALLIDidier - BCE Valbonne - DTN 828.5423Wed Dec 27 1989 06:317
I've heard a couple of songs on the radio and to me it sounded good. I first 
thought it was Extreme :-). The guitar work is very impressive IMO.

Do they have only an LP out ?
Where are they from ?

650.7Turn that d*mn delay off, willya? *^)CSC32::G_HOUSESoul on IceWed Dec 27 1989 20:296
    I keep looking for their video on MTV since a friend of mine said that
    the guy was playing a cool looking guitar in it, but I guess it's not
    getting regular rotation anymore (if it ever did).  Anyone seen it
    lately?

650.9How the music......I dunno?COMET::FRISBYAWake me when it's overWed Oct 02 1991 21:0711
    Danger,Danger has released their second album called:
                        SCREW IT!
    They were gonna call it'Monkey  Business' but opted not too.Good
    choice. 
            They had the rights to the name because Skid were gonna call
    their album MB but found out the Danger boys had it already.
         then the Skids tune did so good...It would be stupid to call
    their album that.

    	Ya but on the CD it says 'Featuring, Monkey Business'
    
    	bad move...
650.11Skid got em' on this one.COMET::FRISBYAWake me when it's overThu Oct 03 1991 15:518
    They should've just dropped that song  altogether!
    
               Alot of the title on the album are titles of older songs.
    
                 Real bad move.......

650.12MRVAX::CESCOBARWatch out for the POSE-BUDThu Oct 03 1991 15:559
    
    Is that Jim I read. Been a long time, dude...
    
    
    It depends how you look at it. Eventually every song title is going to
    be a recycled title, so it might not be a bad move

    Chris, who really doesn't like Danger Danger anyway
650.13MR4DEC::JWHITMANNo more TearsThu Oct 03 1991 16:0412
    
    
    
    Ya, maybe if they did the song about 5 years down the road...
    and it was'nt one of skids popular songs!!!
    
    
    VVErrrryy bad move... every teenie bopper is gonna call'em 
    copy cats...
    
    
    
650.14Who cares about the title to one song!!!MPGS::HOWESFri Oct 04 1991 00:3617
    
    I have listened to the new stuff and I think it is great...
    
    It is heavier than their older stuff (heavy for Danger Danger)...
    
    I have seen them in concert twice and I like their music...
    
    I know it is posuer-ish or popish, but I still like it.  I don't
    
    think the new stuff will be getting very much air-play it is *very*
    
    sexual. 
    
    To me it was definately worth buying,

650.15really!?!DPDMAI::THRELFALLStep into your Last GoodbyeFri Oct 04 1991 11:081
    I'll check it out!
650.16Get This!!!MPGS::HOWESFri Oct 04 1991 20:2313
    
    
    A couple of the more sexual songs are...
    
    Slipped Her The Big One.
    Horny S.O.B.  (which I heard in concert first...quite a few months ago.)
    and
    Yeah, You Want It!   (which is a rap song... and guess who does the
    			  rap?  No not Mc Hammer, but (get this) it is
    			  Pat, Gary, and Nuno from EXTREME!!!!!)
    Pat, Gary, and Nuno also sing background on Slipped Her The Big One.
    
    -Seth
650.17It also has a funny rap song.......COMET::FRISBYAI said SCREW IT...MomAndDadUseToDoIt!Tue Oct 08 1991 20:3922
       I've listened to this album.......
    
             It's pretty good as far as glossy-type rock goes.....
    
         If your into it...I recommend it.
         If your not......It'll make ya puke!
    
             The problem with this album is about 6 of the songs have
    titles I've seen before.<----This would be o.k. if there weren't so
    many.  For example:
    
                Monkey Business-Skids
               Beat the bullet-VAIN
              Everybody wants some-Old Van Halen
             Coming Home-Cinderella
             
                 and there's a couple more....
    
             Good guitar solo on Puppet Show by Andy Timmons.

650.19DPE::STARROut Of The Cradle, Endlessly Rocking!Tue Oct 13 1992 14:004
Listened to this album for about 3 songs this morning, and I couldn't take
any more. Totally generic music, totally cliched. Ugh.

    This band is dying a slow death (like White Lion did).  They might
    release 1 more album before they call it quits.
650.23They're a fun group! Ginger snaps... hehehe ;)DECAGE::HOWESAngels wake up with a kiss....Fri Jan 08 1993 12:5511


	Lu,


	Last I heard they dumped the keyboardist, and will be coming
	out with a new release during the summer....
