Well, This Is Ridiculous

Oh, those cheeky boys in Steel Panther have done it again. Their little holiday-picture idea was a great publicity stunt. Steel Panther will release All You Can Eat later this year.

Are these guys always having fun?

[Metalboy!]

And the joke wears thinner and thinner.

[GNR]

Thin ? Not sure - saw them at the First Avenue club in Minneapolis in December. SOLD OUT ! Tons of fun and great show.

[fletch]

Take this post with a grain of salt, and only 1 grain, por favor...here's to your thin red line.

it's steel panther...accept it for what it is, and keep moving, keep focusing, keep rockin', keep being your special self.

[fletch]

To quote cinderella's fred coury (who has been an absolute douche to me on more than one occasion):

I've never worked a day in my life, but I've never worked harder in my life". I'm sure sp feels the same.

[Dj]

Love these guys! Will buy the new album for sure. If they wrote serious songs too, they would be golden.

[fletch]

Not sure where to post this, jakki, so I'll do it here.

yes, I know the spladle. In my day, we called the scissors.

For those who don't know, you tube it, fuckers

[Metalboy!]

Not serious songs, DJ. Songs with more intelligent, yet still funny as hell double entendre lyrics a la Cheap Trick's 3rd album, "Heaven Tonight", their masterpiece.

[Metalboy!]

"More clever" might be a better way of putting it. Think Spinal Tap in terms of hilarious, double entendre lyrics.

p.s. I will say, Steel Panther's music is great and they have some great song titles, "Tiger Woods", for example. It's their lyrics that fall short. Nice wigs, too...

[Jakki Steal]

FUCK YOU!
FLETCH

[The Outsider]

Most agreed Jakki, fletch takes being a douche to another level.

[Kenny Ozz]

So refreshing to see a band that is great at what they do have so much fun doing it. Long live the Panther! Best rock band to hit the scene in the last 10-12 years.

[Metalboy!]

Kenny O, I love ya, Bro, but THAT is giving them a little too much credit, donchya think? I'll take The Darkness, Hardcore Superstar, Crash Diet, Reckless Love, Foxy Shazam (your great tip), The Treatment or any number of bands over these guys.

Here's a reality check for ya:

I'm with Kenny and GNR.
Saw S P in San Francisco in November and they were great. Seeing them again in February in Copenhagen.

[Dj]

Good point Metalboy! Don't get me wrong though I love these guys! Would be killer to catch a show. I agree with what Kenny said and I think Buckcherry is close up on that list too.

Are these guys good musicians? Possibly, but its still not too cool for them to be making a mockery of the kind of music, I've listened to for most of my life. I'm glad they're "just having fun" but to me its l-a-m-e. If you wanna rag on a genre, rag on grunge. I wasn't a Weird Al fan and I'm not a Steel Panther fan either. Theyre both weak as pondwater, imho. Feel free to continue giving them your money & publicity though.

[Metalboy!]

Good point, BK. But, brace yourself, Jakki, "Hair Metal" (and that's how these guy's view it, I assure you, is a lot more fun to mock than Grunge, which is boring, to begin with.

Imagine...

"Bring Back Grunge!" with a plaid background on the masthead at the top.
