hey leplovers! You can hear Billy's Got A Gun and Wasted live back from the Pyromania tour. Can you believe that? These are some rare ones I have never seen before. They're live! Not something from any of their official DVDS. Check out a young joe in that classic Union Jack tank and a young rick allen playing with two sticks.
Check it out at www.youtube.com Enjoy!

Fuck Wal-Mart- wait a week and then pick this up on Ebay, Amazon, or somewhere else.
What does it tell you when a company like Wal-Mart pays such horrendous wages and benefits that workers are often forced to go on welfare, use food stamps, etc.? The same frothing-at-the-mouth conservatives who shriek til the cows come home about "personal responsibility" and decry the social safety net are all too often the same glazed-eyed idiots saying "WOW!!! A $25 microwave?!? WOO-HOO!!!" and seeing absolutely no irony in the situation.

last 2 tours and told everyone they still had it. But since i heard joe say they were more of a pop band than metal i threw in the towel. Now this walmart thing , it just breaks the camels back. I just can't overlook this. ANd journeys last 2 albums have been heavier and more guitar oriented than the horrible x album which i bought as well.

yeek! after having read several posts, im starting to regret the timeout comment i made concerning your little revolution against wal-mart. i dont like walmart, but i just thought maybe we should take it easy and not turn it into something political. I want to enjoy the band. The band may not even be aware of a lot of americans' feeligs towards wal-mart or the nature of their operation.

if you're really that serious about it, then I can definitely do that. I would never purchase it through walmart anyway. I would find another avenue.

i ain't getting drawn into this wal-mart debate, BUT....... see they forgot bout us guys in the UK AGAIN!!!! i'm sure i can speak for a lot of us who are getting sick & tired of the way things are being done..... mainly those of us who have been there from the start... i know they do better in the states, but considering those of us who do give a fuck it would be nice once in a while to be remembered.........

i gotta admit. I miss the old stuff very much. when they did x, i tried to compromise even though it wasn't what i was expecting and remain open to their music. But how much more can anyone do that? And I can't blame everyone for their negative comments for not only their musical direction, but other reasons as well.

One of the reasons why they choose Walmart is because even the smallest towns have Walmart. You can't find Best Buy or Target everywhere. Is it really that big a deal. I shop at Walmart and so do alot of you running it down.
I'll be at Walmartfirst thing Tuesday marning to pick my Def Leppard up.
