| Music Finally, an entire forum devoted to talking about Doktor Avalanche, the drum machine for the Sisters of Mercy. You can talk about other bands, or other members of that band, too, if you want to be UNCOOL. |

The "Grant Matthews is the Greatest Bass Player Ever" Thread
He pretty much is. Agree or agree?

I think Mick Karn is the greatest bassist of all time, but oh well.

Stu Hamm anyone?
Flea?
I'm not quite up on current awesome bass players. I'm just aware that Stu Hamm is a god at bass.

Malice is the fuck here.
Grant Matthews is fucking amazingggg.
Another thing I love about RP is that their lineup has NEVER changed.

I don't know what kind of cancer. Info on them is always really vague. It was some time in the 80's. It's actually why they stopped playing shows save for the one exception in '92 or '93 (the one that was video taped).

Aaah, did he have it operated on or what?
Also you wouldn't happen to have a decentish picture of the Cosmic Hearse from the death church album would you?
I really wanna do a shirt but when I make the picture any bigger I can't make it out well enough to draw it, and otherwise it's too small.

I have no idea if he's still sick with it or if he got an operation. All I know is that he's still alive and I hope it stays that way. I'm pretty sure that if any of them died then the chances of seeing them live drop from a sliver of a chance to absolute zero.
No, I can't say I have a decent picture of the Cosmic Hearse. I drew it on one of the circles of my done-up chucks, but for that I just looked REAL hard and close up at the cover of Death Church. As in, I had the CD case right up to my face.

Exactlyyy.
Lux Interior's already died...
That's my chance to see The Cramps gone.
RP are like, my favourite band.
I'd probably cry if I couldn't see them.

GAH. I know. I would have loved to see The Cramps.
And If RP were gone forever, I think I'd kill myself.
Thats a lie. But I'd feel dead inside.

In the past couple months I've noticed a surge in Rudi Peni appreciation on gnet. I'm actually suprised that this thread got this many posts. It was actually half a joke. But I guess I'll give credit to Malice. There should just be a "Haunted and Malice talk about RP" thread. It would get a billion posts.

I like Rudi a bit. But I think there should be a "Haunted House, Malice and SOD Talk About Punk" Thread!

EVERYONE LIKES RP NOW.
Weren't we supposed to make a Subhumans (UK) thread, or was that Joker I was talking about that with?

I think it may have been us, I forget. One way or the other we must make a thread.
