Has anyone here ever heard of Nitro? Remember the guy with the 4 necked guitar? In my opinion one of the most awful bands of all time. Cool lookin' guitar though.  |

AAAAARGH! I'd done all in my power to supress any recollection of those Tinseltown Twits. Now I'm doomed to think about them again! I do remember advertisements in different musical publications stating that you too could sing like Nitro's singer, provided you order his new Heavy Metal Vocal Lessons. I'm not sure why anyone would want that: he sounds like Mickey Mouse on speed with two lungs full of helium. A friend of mine actually pulled out a record from Nitro a couple of years ago and we listened to it. I'd never heard them before, so I was curious. Well, I guess I should've followed my instinct and run away as soon as I saw all that BIG HAIR, but I didn't. Needless to say we both had a good laugh. I think we held out for about ten minutes, then the record was quickly replaced. As far as the four-necked guitar goes, Rick Nielsen has Nitro beat. He has a FIVE necked guitar, which he had custom built just to piss off everybody else. According to an interview I read long ago, the thing must weigh 50 pounds and you need arms like a gorilla to play the lower necks. It's amusing to consider what lengths people will go just to be a superlative. Aw, what the hell. I guess they think it's bitchen. By the way, mack73, welcome to the forum. |

Actually, I don't think I would have recognised him with the goatee, shades and a few extra pounds if it hadn't been for the trademark baseball cap.
Oh sorry, you mean the guitar ?

You would probably enjoy a cd I have called FU2. An anti-tribute to U2. It has the legendary Negativland tracks U2 Pt.1 & 2 and a collection of various avant garde artists filling out the rest of the cd. Hating fucking U2 isn't really complete without a copy of FU2. |

I would have to say that the worst band ever is a toss up between the partridge family and the Brady Kids and Leif
Garrett (sp)?
This music all sucked really bad. If you dont agree, youre very odd.

I believe this is the first time I've crossed over and I promise to NOT make it a habit, but I couldn't let this one go by...

I'd say: a coin has two sides and therefore, by definition, a toss up occurs between two things - not three; there are lots of "bands" worthy of the honor "worst" (as has been demonstrated in this very colum, with a miriad of reasons for each, and many reasons worthy of debate) and your three merely scratch the surface - IMO; your assertion that anyone who might hold a contrary opinion to yours must be "very odd" offends me.
Now I may not favor any of the "bands" you mentioned either, but you state they are the worst. And if I do not agree with with that view, I am odd.
Okay, I am odd. And you're a brown - not necessarily on the bus with the rest of us Bozos...

Yup.
And one that holds little value in banal opinion.
