I really would like to know their thought process when they come up with their TMS Top 5. I find it very hard to believe that not 1 out of the 3 of them calls them out on how ridiculous their topic is. They can't all be in agreement that their Top 5 is air-worthy. Think about it this way, they are arguing over  s h i t t y  covers. Exactly. Ugh.

well they have to have little segments...I don't mind it...their choices are their choices, but I think it gets a viewers imagination going as to what they think....so although there's for sure been a few where I am thinking...
"who cares?"

there was something else about that last show I was going to say....and I can't remember what it was.....dang.

I'll think of it and post it up....wasn't a criticism I don't think....I still love the show...it's amazing how Don and Jim really are the voice of reason

hahahaha

I wish it was just Jim and Don running the show. It would be SOOOOOOO much better. Eddie is dead weight. He really doesn't add anything to the show other than "connections" with Rock Stars by way of his Radio show. I don't know how he has even maintained a radio show because there is no way in hell I could listen to him talk for 30 minutes, let alone his entire show.

My 2 Cents.

well the main thing for me, is Saturday nights are ALWAYS better when it's on///

and even if they have to have a little filler...to make it an hour show...I'll take an hour of TMS any day of the week!

ah I remember what was bugging me about the show.

like you said Zakk Wylde's story's sucked.

he seemed pretty dumb...he's a cool guy and a solid shredder....but he ain't tipping the charts as a mental giant

:)

I think what it is....everyone in bands are jokers, all touring bands do is kill time between shows cracking the same old tired jokes and stories again and again..('this one goes to eleven'....eh....yeah)..probably to keep their sanity while on tour for months (or years)  at a time......BUT they are all around a bunch of ass kissers (fans, press, label schmucks, and roadies) who'd never dare not laugh at their jokes....so it's like a confidence in that everything you say is infinitely funny or interesting...when in fact you are not

:)

hahahaha

Trunk falling into the label/press schmuck

And it's THAT very reason why he annoys the hell out of me. You can tell by the look on Jim and Don's face they are embarrassed by him at times. They may laugh it off, but there is some 'sting' behind those laughs. I love the show and will watch every episode till there is no more. Just watching a few episodes of Season 1, and you can see how much different it is now compared to then. When TMS premiered, I was his biggest fan because he created this show and gave Metalheads something to get behind. But over the years, for whatever reason, he wants to make it about HIM.

Two episodes back, the opening segment was about how "hard" his life is, that he "can't go anywhere anymore because EVERYONE wants to Stump me". Blah blah blah..............Yeah, Eddie, you live a very hard life. Deal with it and cash your paycheck. But don't b*tch about it. What bugs me most is that the guest give him presents. Why the f*ck don't they give Don and Jim stuff? They've earned it. Sometimes it feels like the show exist solely for the purpose of having people give him stuff on air so he can brag and gloat about it.

I agree.

I am not sure I would have realized why he bugged me if it wasn't for you!

It's hard not to notice it in the last couple of "seasons". It use to be about the music, man! Words and music!! He use to be Eddie Wilson. Unfortunately, we are stuck with Eddie Trunk now.

Episode 4: Joey Kramer & Brad Whitford

















Special Guest Guitarist: George Lynch

This is easily the best episode this season and I would say it's in the Top 5 ever for the entire run of That Metal Show. Compare this episode with last weeks and you will see a HUGE difference in style and tone. Have you figured it out yet? It's called humility. You get someone (in this case, two of 'em) that are humble, you are going to be more attentive to what they have to say. There is no "I'm the funniest guy, laugh at all my jokes" nonsense. Both Joey Kramer & Brad Whitford were awesome in this one. They had plenty to say and were extremely grateful for the opportunity to sit on stage and share what they had kicking in their heads.

I had heard all the talk about Aerosmith looking to replace Steven Tyler during the American Idol years. But I had no idea that one of the possible contenders for the job was none other than Sammy Hager. I'm a huuuuuuuuge fan of Sammy, but I gotta say that I am glad it never went there. Not because he wouldn't have done a good job, it's just that he should never have to step into another signers shoes ever again. It was cool that Brad got some time to speak. He along with Tom Hamilton always get the short end of the stick when it comes to doing press and interviews. Love the episode and will definitely watch this one whenever it's on the air as well as online.

I agree although I'd say a project with the guys and Sammy would have been bad ass...and I'd have NO problem with them going there at all.

I didn't love the episode as much as you...like I said, before in the e mail.  I thought George Lynch was great on this episode...the top 5 was kind of lame.....and I don't like Evan Sienfled at all.....the guys from Aerosmith were cool...and I'd for sure watch it again....the rub with Snowy Kramer is he's kind of still numb from all the drugs and his clock analogy even had Don Jameson making fun of him to his face.

Great episode...I'd for sure watch it again

and forgive me but I can't really put stars on everything....it's not a wide enough scale...5 stars only puts stuff in too large of brackets sometimes for me.

if the show was 1-100% I'd give this show approx an 83%

:)

so that would be.....4.2 stars?

hahahahaha

;)

I'm not a fan of Evan and don't think what he did was exceptional. Just pointing out that I would like to see more people sitting in on the TMS Top 5 to shake things up. Having a 4th voice is going to give you different results from the norm which is Eddie whines whenever his entire list isn't THE Top 5, and Don and Jim make a crack at his expense, which usually produces the funniest sh*t for each episode.

Jim needs to do more "this is from your wife" jokes. Anytime he can put Eddie down in public is a good thing in my book.

I wasn't saying Evan sucks because you like a guest on the top 5.

I just don't care for him

was nice to hear him talk about old school bands though...I'll give him props for that

:)

I am sure in person he's totally cool...just seems a little like an ego maniac...or like he has Napoleon syndrome

:)

I would like to see Ace sit in on the Top 5 segment. Doesn't matter what the topic is, I think it would be super fun. Eddie likes to brag that they are "besties". Put up or shut up Eddie. Make it happen! Even better would be to have Ace as the Special Guest Guitarist. Now THAT would be sick!

Won't happen. Ace don't like him.
