Do you see Jimmy Page as a songwriter/composer first and guitar player second or vice versa?

Do you see Jimmy Page as a songwriter/composer first and guitar player second or vice versa?

For what it’s worth, most people have him in their top five for guitarists, which I would agree with. But then you think how songs like stairway, Kashmir, ten years gone, and Achilles last stand were mainly his brainchild, which leads me to think his songwriting abilities eclipse his guitar playing abilities. But idk man. Either way THATS MY GOAT

Whatever happened to the dancing mustache fan?

Haven’t seen him in a few years. Maybe I haven’t been paying attention to the Jumbotron.

What does Eric Clapton look like

Is he a shapeshifter every photo is different. If young Eric Clapton walked up to me right now I’d have no idea it was him

He has no features that make you go like “yeah that’s Eric Clapton” just straight up looks like a dude legit like if a stick figure came alive

Thoughts on the Minten Deal?

Management has put a ton of stock in him, but I like it. Despite his draft gaffes, I think Sweeney had a good eye for projected talent once the players have worn an NHL jersey.

Three Questions About Ahsoka

  1. How do you think her story will end? And how much more content do you think her character can/should generate?

  2. How do you want her story to end?

  3. For those that think her character has continued for too long, how and when do you think her story should’ve ended?

Can you think of a musician whose style did not fit their group/genre?

It’s often said that what makes certain musicians great at their craft is that their style fits their music perfectly, and they always play to the song.

A common example is Ringo, who has earned a reputation of being an average drummer, whereas other top drummers cite him as the perfect example of what a proper drummer should be. Knowing exactly what the song needed, and delivering it without being flashy and over the top.
The Beatles did not need hard/heavy, Bonham style drumming. It’d have taken away from their music.

Can you think of any examples of musicians who were a bit too much or not enough for what their band required? It might be a paradoxical question since a band with a member whose style was out of place probably wouldn’t have been big enough for people to know them in the first place , but who knows.

Just watched the show for the first time (incredible). What other stories in the SW universe do you think lend themselves to this style of mature writing with heavy themes?

I’m just discovering this album that Page, Bonham, Jeff Beck, Noel Redding, and Nicky Hopkins all played on (and Page produced)

It’s…an album. I can see why they didn’t promote it. Lord Sutch is an interesting and sad story.

As rough as it is, I still love hearing Bonham play on something I haven’t heard before. Definitely worth checking out just for the sake of who’s on it. The Wikipedia page for the album tells you who played on each song

Making My Way Through Texas Flood (album) For the First Time

I just have to say: Pride and Joy? WOW, what a song. Amazing.

But hearing it once was enough. I hope it doesn’t show up again, even if the lyrics are different.

I will keep everyone updated

Serious Question: Confused On The Lore of This Scene

If Palpatine’s goal was for Rey to kill him so he could transfer his life essence into her, was this not accomplished in the above scene?

If not, is it because he no longer needed to transfer his essence after draining the life force from Rey and Kylo, or was it because she didn’t kill him but rather he killed himself with his own force lightning?

We all have our opinions on the sequels, but it ain’t that kind of post.

Is This The Single Greatest Aura Loss in History?

That is literally my 7th grade science teacher

Edit: Currently giving this more consideration. I may have greatly miscalculated the net trend in aura as a result of looking like an insurance salesman from Minnesota whilst simultaneously sliming out the baddest dudes in the known galaxy. I will report back.

Beatles Cultural Impact?

In 2026, how culturally present are the Beatles in England/the UK?

In the U.S they’re still fairly ubiquitous - often referenced in media as a cultural zeitgeist, something universally beloved, or the peak of human exceptionalism. The average person knows Let it Be, Hey Jude, Here Comes the Sun, and Yesterday - but that’s probably it.

I assume they must be a great point of English/British pride, but what’s different about their place in the UK today?

How often do they come up in casual conversation or in media? How many songs can the average person name? Are they a big point of pride for the country? For those that live near London, is it common to have visited penny lane or abbey road at least once, much like a New Yorker has been to the Statue of Liberty at some point?

Edit: forgot penny lane is in Liverpool
