A lot there I don’t know. I lived in Seattle mid-late ‘80s then went overseas. Nirvana came to prominence right after I left. I was big into Soundgarden & Mudhoney.
Dave went from being somewhat neutral to a full blown establishment mouthpiece 5 or so years ago. Consequently, his music has gone completely downhill and I've been a HUGE FF fan since day 1.
Yea I was a fan up to Wasting Light... that documentary and the Sonic Highway series was like the peak for me and after that I really didn't understand the music that was coming out.
Always wondered if the death of his young son (fall from the balcony) and band members in the helicopter crash was punishment for not playing along with the entertainment / cabal rules.
Similar to Travolta, Tyson, Cosby, etc.
Now that he paid his punishment, he can speak out. 🤷♂️
I just read the details on the guy that shot Cosby:
Mikhail Markhasev, a Ukrainian -born immigrant, was convicted of first-degree murder and attempted robbery in Ennis Cosby's death on July 7, 1998. At the request of the Cosby family, prosecutors did not seek the death penalty, and Markhasev has been serving a mandatory sentence of life without parole.
I'm suddenly a much bigger fan of these two than I ever was in the past. May God protect them.
On the other hand, we all know what Mick Jagger is, and Dave Grohl always struck me as an egotistical phony. I never could understand why so many people idolize him and his music.
FYI, not that it matters now but both Clapton and Morrison rose to fame by being counter culture/anti establishment pioneers if you will. Ironically the same “mindset” is now very much not counter culture and has now embraced the establishment.
Interesting what was once considered “punk rock” is now... Trump. Look at John Lydon (ex Sex Pistols lead singer) is very outspoken and without saying it practically endorses Trump and our movement... something he was radically against back in the 1970s. But they (the Sex Pistols) were very aware of the evil that the British Empire was and they often sang about it. Their song ‘God Save the Queen’ is an anthem very much opposed to the British Monarchy. Fast forward to today and you look back when guys like Lydon were rallying against the establishment... well, they were almost prophets. It was right there all along.
Lydon quote: I never thought I'd see the day when the right wing would become the cool ones giving the middle finger to the establishment and the left wing would become the sniveling, self righteous twatty ones going out shaming everyone.
I heard an interview with Lydon talking about Saville and child sexual abuse. I (think), in the same interview he talked about Saville's incredible access to minor patients in British hospitals, and weird things he did in a morgue. Too bad Saville is dead, I'd like to see him hang.
There are no stars anymore. They can level with the people on a real level, or they can be puppets like Grohl saying "OMG JAN 6 WAS THE MOST INSANE THING I HAVE EVER SEEN!" or be like Gene Simmons or the Slipknot guy telling people who once enjoyed their music that they are now "selfish" if they do not get a jab." They accepted the puppet role and closed the casket on their careers.
Much respect to both of them for this. Funny how so many of the younger groups, from metal to punk, are all guzzling the koolaid. I've lost respect for so many. Yet the old timers are based af. That's just the way of things now I guess. I will make it a point to support both of them.
Interesting that Clapton and Morrison were trying to speak out about lockdowns and Covid from at least the end of 2020.
Morrison was laughed at, ridiculed and silenced. By contrast the MSM in the U.K. promoted Grohl and Jaggers lockdown collaboration.
Now when it’s all over they’ve took the gag off Clapton and Morrison who were trying to warn people.
Dave promoted it? Figured the dude was fake.
Yeah, black-eyed and I’ve seen him cover one eye. wth?
what if Dave and Courtney Love conspired to wax Cobain and steal his songs, like members of AC/DC did to Bon Scott ?
I’ve heard that theory, and it’s plausible considering the characters involved. Then again, they had deadly habits.
Cobain's alleged addiction was exaggerated by stories planted by Love and Grohl.
It's a tried a true method towards rock stars they can't control.

Heh. He's just a pretender after all. I trust nobody who's portrayed as good anymore.

What happened with Travolta and Tyson? And with Cosby, did he lose someone, or are you referring to the metoo bullshit?
Story goes:
Travolta's late son, Jett, died in January 2009 at age 16 after suffering a seizure during a family vacation in the Bahamas
Tyson's daughter was strangled after getting tangled in a cord on a treadmill also in 2009.
Cosby's son was shot while changing a flat tire in 1997. IT was billed as a "random" act of violence.
Michal Jordan’s dad
Shit, dying of a seizure isn't common. While I've never had any kind of "real" seizure, they still scare the shit out of me.
While strangulation probably does happen, I would assume there's only a handful in the country in any given year.
Shot while changing a tire sounds suspiciously similar to Seth Rich.
I just read the details on the guy that shot Cosby:
Possibly SUDEP.
You go to down the "Crossroads" to make a deal with devil...Your obligation will never be fulfilled
Exactly this. I hadn't heard about their collaboration until now? Then I looked at the YouTube views. Clearly, it was suppressed.
Clapton's guilty of suffering an injury from the injection that affected his ability to use his hands.
Here's the song Stand and Deliver: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DirL4RI1448

“She ain’t no human being” in 1977. Two years later “ lydon told a BBC reporter. “ we all know about Jimmy Savile.
Back then David Icke was starting out as a sports anchor at the BBC

BBC got bashful when Lydon brought Savile up. When he said "we all know..." the BBC sure knew. Then they got mad and didn't allow Lydon on air again.
Grohl rose to fame on the talent and charisma of Cobain before collaborating in his execution for full entry into the satanic cult.
He has no talent of his own - he is full demon at this point.
Just saw a trailer for some horror/“comedy” him & FF bandmates & Dave is possessed. Ironic?
...also played the devil in both the Tenacious D movie and music video for the song "Tribute". Dave likes Devils, that's for sure.
Well THAT kinda seals the deal. More trash.
Standard symbolism.
Archonic demiurge constructs.

Van Morrison 70th bday Live from Cyprus Avenue is a must watch, enjoy!

I love Clapton.
Play his music every day on guitar. Huge inspiration.
Imagine being the people responsible for Clapton no longer being able to hold a guitar.
May they burn in hell.
He can't play anymore? I didn't know that.
May we get to light the match.
His MTV unplugged is my favorite.
Yup.
Love playing lonely stranger on guitar.
Great tune.
I learned to play guitar to this... Signe, Tears in Heaven, I never could figure Layla out though, too technical.
Actually signe is more technical than layla, at least the acoustic version.
If you can play signe, you can play layla
Reminder that Clapton has been awake forever. Remember what he said about Britain.
Hell yeah -- and he was RIGHT!
I have always liked Clapton.
Blessings to him and his loved ones.
I'm so glad tonsee Clapton is awake. Van Morrison too. Of ever music is needed to drive a positive change it's now.
G-L-O-R-I-A
Gloria!
Funny how all the old school musicians are coming out, Meatloaf was vocal against the vaccines and restrictions and they're not saying how he died
Think my next guitar will be a Clapton sig
Finally a couple of useful Boomers!
If you're into metal, Five Finger Death Punch... Those guys have been through it. All Veterans of the sandbox... Give'em a listen
Clapton? Didn't he play guitar with George Harrison on While My Guitar Gently Weeps?
that he did.
he played a damn good solo that defined the song!
I've been playing guitar since '87 and I've never seen the appeal of this guy.
Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jlLBs6YawM - This was always my "Clapton" preference tbh.
Great album 😎👍🏽
