F*cking classic.

Samsara · « **Reply #4 on:** June 18, 2010, 10:24:54 AM »

In all seriousness, here is one.

It's live, and Kip's vocals are too low (and he's having a rough night singing-wise), but the guitar is nice and clear.

This is two songs: "Pull Me Under" and then "Blind Revolution Mad."

"Blind Revolution Mad" starts at the 3:38 mark, although it is the shortened version. The album version has an acoustic intro that doesn't work when you play the song right after Pull Me Under (you'll see why).

And I can't help it, but here is one more.

"Rainbow in the Rose"

from the same taper.

I think this version is defective! It cuts off at the end.

Samsara · « **Reply #6 on:** June 18, 2010, 10:30:25 AM »

I couldn't find Blind Revolution Mad on YouTube except for live versions or acoustic versions. I'll look again. And the fact we must use YouTube really makes things difficult.

You know, TAC...I could just hook you up with some tunes. And let you listen and decide.

Right Up ahead live from Winger IV

I think that's more in line with TAC's liking. I think he'd like IV.

Samsara · « **Reply #10 on:** June 18, 2010, 03:40:52 PM »

Agreed. I think he'd like IV and Karma, both. Karma is a little more aggressive, but IV is a bit more complex and mid-tempo.

Not your fault. I can't find a version of Pull Me Under anywhere that doesn't cut off.

Amazing band. Pick up some albums ASAP, specially Pull. The new one is pretty good too. Some of my favourites;

Is "Seventeen" just kind of understood by Winger fans? Because I quite enjoy that song (especially the solo) and it hasn't been mentioned. Oh well, here it is anyway.

When Winger first came out all my music friends loved it. I knew of Kip in Alice and Rod in the Dregs so I fell in love with the CD. They were better musicians than other bands out at the time and that drew me to them. Kirby, 17 was a BIG MTV hit and the video showed every few hours so some fans gravitate away from the hits. I still love it.

Thanks to a show I loved, Bevis & Butthead, Winger's cred too a major hit. They were made out to be the poster boys to what was wrong with music(hair metal in general) and kids were looking for bands like Nirvana, Soundgarden ect. But they were light years ahead of most of the other bands. I'm glad they got back together.

I'll let you all know how they sound when I see them tomorrow.

Their skills as musicians are incredible, and extremely underrated, possibly the most skilled in the genre and at the time.

Rod Morgenstein also has worked with the mighty Dixie Dregs and is very good friends and worked quite a few times with Jordan Rudess. Reb as we know is playing second fiddle in Whitesnake and filled in very comfortably with Dokken at one point. The live at the sun DVD with him is fantastic. Jon Roth is also not utilized very well in Winger IMO. He's a killer lead player, check out his work on the new Giant album.

Anyone who is a Winger fan should also check out The Mob. A band Reb started with Doug Pinnick on vocals and Kelly Keagy of Night Ranger on drums. Kip also played bass and backing vocals. They have only had one album but what an amazing album it is!

Yeah, they rocked. It is hotter than hell out here.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #19 on:** June 19, 2010, 02:36:49 PM »

I was wondering how hot it was out there. Were they as good, better, or less than the other bands you've seen today?

Sir GuitarCozmo · « **Reply #21 on:** June 19, 2010, 07:44:32 PM »

It was near 90 with no shade and next to no clouds.

Winger was on par with the others. Other bands impressed me more, despite Winger being good.

Girl in the avatar? No idea, this time.

I will now commit suicide for life is meaningless without the hope to find satisfactory fap material with that amazing specimen

but thanks for replying anyway

I will attempt to research it, anyway, of course.

I see TAC wussed out on this thread 12 years ago. So here it is again, Tim. Go try on some Winger.

Wow, epic resurrect. I have to admit, I was super confused when I saw who the thread creator was. Still confused when I saw how old it is. This is super funny. Hold his feet to the fire.

Tim had a roulette round where we all sent him a Winger song.

I don’t see any reason why Tim shouldn’t at least not hate this track. I mean, it’s not my favorite Winger song so there’s a chance.

Yes, and everyone actually lost points.

It was awful.

I smell shenanigans.

The OP was someone's idea of shenanigans and the bump was as well.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #32 on:** July 11, 2022, 12:49:33 PM »

Don't lie. You actually liked a few songs.

TAC · « **Reply #33 on:** July 11, 2022, 12:51:29 PM »

I mean some were less bad than others.

Stadler · « **Reply #34 on:** July 11, 2022, 01:07:28 PM »

Down Incognito is an excellent song by ANY band. LOVE that tune. And the "who's the girl in your avatar, Coz" is amusing 12 years on.

News: DreamTheaterForums is a place for people who just don't have the time for music anymore.
