As a musician I would think that after the excitement of big cities wears off, later on in your career you enjoy playing smaller towns. People are more supportive and everyone comes out to see you if you are well known.
Thoughts?

You can take the girl out of the trailer park , but sometimes you can't take the trailer park out of the girl.

What you guys are seeing is a woman who is not owned by Disney anymore and now can act out the way she always wanted to.
There are pictures of her from the Hannah Montana days (Backstage) and she was sticking her tongue out back then also with annoying mannerisms. That Hannah Montana image was all bullshit. The fans fell for it thinking she was some good decent girl cause they were 5 and 6 years old.

The last solid album they came out with was Honkin on a Bobo.
PUMP was the last great album of originals that they have released.

Maybe the next hair band should be known as Elastic.
Why it hasn't happened yet, I have no clue.

That was not the question.
The question is why does a 4 foot Vince Neil think he is tough? He isn't tough. Yeah he came from a bad neighborhood. But it wouldn't take much to beat his ass. Does he think he scared alot of people with the Shout at the Devil album? Scary stuff there! LOL
Give me a break.

I personally think the album is not very good compared to their classic stuff. These new albums are the bad B-sides they recorded way back when.

But really aren't.
Can we all say Motley Crue has huge egos and think they are the toughest people on the planet?
Watching those interviews where they were so c*cky back in the day. Its laughable really to be honest.
Why do people take bands like Motley Crue so seriously? Yeah they had some "fun" songs, but really when you get old enough you realize that these bands for the most part were musically and visually, a joke. Like a clown at the circus.
Your thoughts?

What I am getting at is that the Beatles are more popular than many bands that are more talented. Great bands should be judged on their musicianship, not how many people like them. Well, if it's totally on musicianship, then maybe we have to just forget the whole genre of Rock'n Roll and go with Jazz ensembles, hyper-speed metal bands and backing bands for Broadway shows and Country acts. . Again, the Beatles had the "it" factor; they played the right music and the right time under the right conditions and became legends for it. Were they collectively as talented as Dream Theater, Stratovarius, Rush, Deep Purple or even the Who? Maybe not, but they were talented enough and, again, in the right place at the right time. If we don't judge artists by their successes, how do we judge them? I don't like the Beatles. For the life of me, I don't understand why people my age and younger like them. I don't understand why ANYONE needs to hear a half-hour block of them every morning on the local Classic Rock Station's "Breakfast With The Beatles". But fuck me, if they float that many people's boat, they must've done something right. The music that they came out with was way much more marketable than what the bands with more talent had to offer to the public. It takes attention and thought to listen to Dream Theater or Deep Purple. The Beatles came out with songs that were very easy for the average person to comprehend. They left you with songs that would stay in your head and you would remember. Many of the songs that bands like Dream Theater put out are based on instrumentals and even though they are heads and above more talented , the average person can't listen to it fully. I for one judge bands on these things, and to me a band that can come up with stuff like Dream Theater, is a more talented band. For that I respect them much more. Even look at the Beatles most well thought out songs. The average person doesn't listen to them for that stuff. They listen to them to hear "I want to hold your hand." So simple even a 5th grader to enjoy them. Whatever.

Just say whats on your mind. You think Shout at the Devil blows away Abbey Road? And it makes you mad that more people don't agree? lol no I don't think that. But what I do think is that there are more talented bands out there that deserve to be respected for than the Beatles.

So Jesse, Are you admitting that popularity dictates the greatest acts of all time? I'm not sure what you are getting at. What I am getting at is that the Beatles are more popular than many bands that are more talented. Great bands should be judged on their musicianship, not how many people like them.

I know I know, they did things that no one else had ever done before them when it came to rock music. But if you compare them to the bands that came after them, are they the most talented band that ever lived?

The Beatles are not a boy band.
The Monkeys were though.
