Title: ROAD ROCK
Post by: Ass Invader on May 16, 2011, 09:25:40 PM
Man, this being on the road all the time shit is killin' me...we've been on tour since last October, and we're going out again at the end of this month...I'm fuckin' exhausted, man.  This ain't no way for a human being to live.  I think I'm gonna light up a nice, fat joint and listen to 'Turn the Page' and the whole fuckin' Running On Empty album just to straighten my head out, man...

Throw in some Duane Eddy and Link Wray and you're set.

Good music for long drives is something that comes up everytime spring fever strikes and we start planning our summer roadtrips.

I will still roll with Eddy Current when we hit the open roads of high desert plateaus.

Severed Heads when it's late at night.

Syd Barrett when the windows are down.

Ravage & Savage by Boulder when I need to wake up!

You're not hearing what I'm telling you, bro...what I'm saying is that being on the road for months on end, playing every city on the map in arena after arena is fucking exhausting, and all the booze, weed, blow and anonymous backstage head in the world ain't gonna change that.  Whether I'm on the road or off, there's only one kind of music that speaks to me, that tells my story, that says exactly what I'M feeling, and that music is ROAD ROCK.

CCR is a fine band, my man, I ain't gonna argue that - but the only song they ever did that might be considered ROAD ROCK is 'Travelin' Band', and that's, like, proto-ROAD ROCK, man.

i like to put on liqor slicked highway or rwody beer drinking night by GG Allin on the road, it is more like road folk but it is all about going to the next show on a bus and it feels great because you are kind of like him for a small while.

the life of the road rocker is fraught with pain.  after all those hours on the bus its just one hotel room to the next, and the audience expects one more song after your hour of work for the day, but youre tired, strung out from the road, running on empty... but you know what, you give it to them anyways, one more song, and then its back to another hotel room for some blow and cheap black hookers.  all that adoration and money really tires a nigga out, and who wouldnt want to write a song about it, or sympathize with the plight of the road rocker???

Going from the stadium filled with 10's of thousands of people & within an hour being alone in your hotel room watching TV w/ a bottle of Wild Turkey ... fucks with your mind, man.

Hi.  Welcome to The Diet City Rock Thread.

Hi.  Welcome to The Diet City Rock Thread.

Ha! You can't just conjure up a genre and expect it to take. The discovery of City Rock didn't happen overnight. Fade to Sacramento, U Street Gentleman's Club, living room, Conan's "Heart of the City" makes it to the turntable. The tag City Rock is coined. THAT WAS WAY BACK IN 1996. City Rock thread started years after that and the genre is now recognized by the American Musicological Society and BAM magazine. Mr Road Rock, you have at least 15 years of gestation to do before your invention of Road Rock gets taken seriously. Until then, off to pop punk for you.

Hey man, I'm too road-weary to argue about it, but I'll tell you one thing - whether you want to acknowledge ROAD ROCK or not makes me no difference.  It's as much a fact of my everyday life as the tour bus and the encore, and I don't give a good god damn whether the 'American Musicological Society' knows it or not.

CCR was already discussed back on Page 1 of this thread.  You are hereby banned for 5 minutes - that should give you time to read the entire thread.

That might be the very pinnacle of ROAD ROCK right there.

'Travelin' Band' is a great song, and a cornerstone of ROAD ROCK.  I was just doing my Soriano impersonation.

If it helps put a few extra dollars in my pocket (or up my nose, heh heh) and brings a few more underaged girls to the show, who am I to complain?
