The Critic Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 So I'm home last night - I never go out on Overpriced Eve - and I'm flipping channels. I check out MTV to see what they're doing. It's their "New Year's Pajama Party" - typically juvenile. Foo Fighters play their new "hit single" - I like it, I'm a fan of Dave Grohl ( wish he would drum more often, great work on the QOTSA disc ). They tell me to "stay tuned cuz at midnight, Foo Fighters will be performing an AWESOME COVER SONG". One of the guitarists is wearing a Clash t-shirt and has an "R.I.P. Joe Strummer" message written on his guitar, so I'm hoping for Clampdown but thinking maybe Train In Vain or Rock The Casbah. So I come back around 10:50 Central after watching some Insomniac on Comedy Central ( a surprisingly funny show, by the way ). So at the stroke of 11:00 Central, what do Foo Fighters play? A WEEEEEEEAK cover of AC/DC's Back In Black with vocals NOT by Dave, but by that graduate of the Chris Farley Academy of Comedic Overstatement, Jack "I want so badly to be John Belushi, but I'm more like Jim" Black. BLACK - get it????? Back In Black???? ugh. awful awful awful awful awful....but what should I have expected from MTV? :puke Jack Black :puke MTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPinStripes Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Yeah, i was expecting a song by the clash too. I didnt need to see that moron screaming like crack head with no pipe. I turned it off after that . I got real sick of Carson Daily, the idiot from that 70's show talking over eachother, and jack black. Over priced eve huh? I knew it was a money issue with you jerry jr.

Jack Black does have a good voice and from time to time he can be decent (the D CD totally f***ing rocks) but you all should know better than to watch MTv. MTv isn't even good enough to teabag my balls. They put on N'Sync and all that other dogs*** and call it music. Oh jeez, the new girl they are trying to ram down our throats, Avril Levigne or whatever the mcf*** her name is, is nothing put a punk pop princess. She is the Britney Spears of corporate punk. MTv, f*** you...f*** you very much. I'll stick with my Alkaline Trio, thank you very f***ing much! (a f***ing great band from Chicago!!!! www.alkalinetrio.com ) MTv is the biggest pile of f***ing swill on the air. They have no idea what f***ing really good music is....and I wouldn't put it past them to piss on the grave of the Clash because MTv is a bunch of f***ing dickless penisfairy dumbs*** sisterf***ing assclowning f***asses.

CubKilla Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Some on this board think that Jack Black actually has musical talent. Good thing I wasn't watching that..... I'd have been pissed waiting to see what they were going to play only to see Jack Douchebag come out and scream his bulls***. PS..... Carson Daily looked more femme and prepped than that chick with the huge head that was in 8 Mile and that new wedding movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted January 1, 2003 Author Share Posted January 1, 2003 Originally posted by RedPinStripesOver priced eve huh? I knew it was a money issue with you jerry jr. Yep, call me cheap if you want to, but I just don't feel like getting raked over the coals for an evening's entertainment. Case in point: the Goo Goo Dolls were in Chicago in October or November and tickets cost 25 bucks or so. Last night, they were at the House Of Blows, for ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY BUCKS. That's what I mean by Overpriced Eve. I will spend my money, but I need to get proper value for it. I know you like to waste money ( when you have it ), like buying yourself a new bat when you KNOW you can't hit anyway. I may be a cheap Polack, but I get my money's worth. As for the Jerry Jr. wisecrack...:**** Mike North Jr.!! And could Carson Daly look any more bored and distracted than he did last night? HA! Jack Black is a hack! He just mugs to the camera with that retarded grin on his face, like it's supposed to be funny or something. Tenacious D is terrible, and anyone - ANYone - could do what he does in movies...:puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted January 1, 2003 Author Share Posted January 1, 2003 As for April Latrine, she isn't so much the new s***ney as she is "your little sister's Alanis Morrisette". They're both little Canadian pop princesses who were steered like cattle into the "alternative" music style by their handlers. It makes me want to :puke when they call her "punk" or "skate punk" or anything like that, because her music and image are pre-packaged and carefully marketed so as to appear somehow dangerous without managing to offend anyone except fans of punk music. Simply horrific.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPinStripes Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Hey! I dont buy new bats anymore. I just use the 15 year old reb bomb that gets my cheap hits out of the infield. And dont talk about making use of your money when you race to the bar after a softball game and only buy for the 2 guys that show up within 5 minutes. Cheap ass polack!

CubKilla Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Yeah. I used to go out on New Year's Eve but every place there's a party, the tix start at $100. Then you have to pay for food (usually), the bar prices are raised because EVERYBODY drinks a little more than they usually do (or should), and most places are so crowded that by 11, you can't move around anyway without it taking you 45 minutes to leave your friends, get to the bar, get served, pay for your 4 beers at a total of $60, walk back through the sea of people, only to get s*** from your friends about it taking you so long to get more beer that now they're sober. f*** that. I just do the house parties now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have been pissed waiting to see what they were going to play only to see Jack Douchebag come out and scream his bulls***. Jack Black actually does have musical talent, he can hit some nice notes, he's definately got a set of pipes on him, and it really shows on the Tenacious D album, it just that he's singing about funny-ass s*** so you don't really pay attention to how well he sings, he and Kyle, have some great harmony when they sing, and it sounds really good, and f***ing hilarious on the CD. Not to mention that they can hold there own on the guitars. Obviously Dave Grohl thought that they were talented and funny, or else he wouldn't have laid down the drums tracks on that record, or asked him to do a cover song with them on MTV.

The Critic Posted January 1, 2003 Author Share Posted January 1, 2003 I'll tell you what - maybe he can hit SOME notes, but none of those notes appear on Back In Black. It was dismal, he couldn't hit ANY of the high-end stuff on that song. Perhaps if he keeps within a certain range he's okay ( although I still think "the D" is crap ), but I'm guessing that they thought it would be funny for Jack Black to perform Back In Black. They were wrong. Oh, and Red, I can't help it if you take too long to get to the saloon! I know it takes a while for you to stop crying about your at-bats, but REALLY...

FUCKREINSDORF Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 Glad I avoided that bulls***. I had my own problem;Slept at my sister's house and stayed up till about 1:15 AM watching the vomit on Ch.7. I actually saw jagoff Giangreco kiss Janet Davies twice!! UGH!! God knows where those lips have been! Well,what do you expect from a sCrUBS fan like Giangreco? I thought his lips were permanently plastered on Sham-mee's ass,just like that asshole Marriotti.

Chisoxfn Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 Insomniac with Dave Attell is a good show. I don't know many who watch it, but he's pretty damn funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
