ROCK Eventi rock

0 Upvotes

Ciao ragazzi, sto svolgendo un’indagine per il mio master e vorrei che i musicisti/cantanti di questo gruppo rispondessero alle seguenti domande:

Frequentate eventi rock in qualità di musicisti/cantanti? Soprattutto quelli non di Roma e Milano ma anche solo province vanno benissimo*

Cosa vi attirerebbe di un evento per farti dire “sì ci vado a suonare/cantare”? Cosa invece vi invoglierebbe ad andare come spettatori?

Cosa vi farebbe dire “evito, non ci vado a cantare/suonare”? Cosa vi farebbe dire lo stesso in qualità di spettatori?

Conoscete gli eventi Jam Session e FlashCoro di Rockin’1000? Cosa vi farebbe dire “si ci vado a suonare/cantare/assistere come spettatore” e cosa invece vi farebbe dire “no non vado”?

Vi prego di rispondere in ordine e non tralasciare nessuna informazione

Grazie a tutti ❤️

There have been some great trios and I tend to really like a lot of them. My favorite would have to be Rory Gallagher. Who's yours?

This song is based on an old fable. We want to help others, but what will be your decision if the other individual doesn't take any responsibility? Is their fate in your hands? Talk amongst yourselves...

ROCK Chicago’s original drummer Danny Seraphine is bringing the music of Chicago to Southern California 🥁

5 Upvotes

For the Chicago fans here, I wanted to share an upcoming show that might be of interest.

Danny Seraphine, original drummer and co-founder of Chicago and a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, will be performing with Danny Seraphine’s Chicago Legacy at Ramona Mainstage in Southern California on Friday, November 6.

Danny helped create the unmistakable rhythm behind so many of those classic Chicago records, and this show celebrates that music with a great band featuring Sara Niemietz, Marc Bonilla, Ed Roth and Travis Davis.

They’ll be playing Chicago favorites including “25 or 6 to 4,” “Saturday in the Park,” “If You Leave Me Now,” “You’re the Inspiration,” and more.

If you love those early Chicago records—or just great horn-driven classic rock—this should be a fun night.

📍 Ramona Mainstage — Ramona, California
📅 Friday, November 6

Any Chicago fans here? What’s the one Chicago song you’d want to hear live? 🥁🎺

Question Similarity between two songs

3 Upvotes

Someone else is very similar to the part of QOTSA - Like a Drug in which it says "No, I'll never be free"/"No, it could never be me" with the part of The Beatles - I Want You in which it says "It's driving me mad"?
Sorry if it's a very silly question but I didn't see anyone talking about it. Maybe it's a direct reference but I don't know

ROCK Neil Young & ON THE BEACH (1974):

'ON THE BEACH' (1974) is a defining album of the '70s and arguably the most lyrically potent made in the first half of that decade.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Train_Runnin'?wprov=sfti1#Reception:

[Billboard](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_(magazine)) magazine described it as "good-timey, good-harmony [AM](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM_radio) cooker."[[9]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Train_Runnin'#cite_note-9) [Cash Box](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cashbox_(magazine)) named it one of the Picks of the Week, praising the Doobies' "fine harmony and musical prowess."[[10]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Train_Runnin'#cite_note-10) [Record World](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Record_World) said that the "pulsating rocker should take the honors in 1973."[[11]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Train_Runnin'#cite_note-rw-11)Upon the release of the 1993 remix, [Charles Aaron](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Aaron) from [Spin](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_(magazine)) wrote, "This early-'70s, blue-eyed [R&B](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R&B) annoyance always had a hair-raising guitar break (copied by X on 'True Love Pt. #2'), and the raving remix recasts it as the sinuously funky friend you never knew you missed. The harp bite is a setup, along with traces of the [proto-techno](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techno) intro to [Sweet](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sweet)'s '[Fox on the Run](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxon_the_Run(Sweet_song))'."[[12]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Train_Runnin'#cite_note-12)
Ultimate Classic Rock critic Michael Gallucci rated "Long Train Runnin'" the Doobie Brothers' second-greatest song, especially praising the guitar [riff](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riff_(music)).[[8]](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Train_Runnin'#cite_note-ucr-8) The staff of Billboard rated it as the Doobie Brothers' sixth-best song, noting how Johnston's and Patrick Simmons' "punchy guitars" contrast with "the jammy [polyrhythms](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyrhythm)" in the [bass](app://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_guitar) and drums.

Question VEXCORE – Closed Beta Listening Test | Metalcore / Deathcore

Thumbnail
1 Upvotes

​

We’re looking for a small group of metalcore listeners to participate in a closed beta listening test for VEXCORE’s upcoming debut album, THE SHAPE OF COLLAPSE, scheduled for release on November 21, 2026.

The album combines melodic metalcore with heavier deathcore influences, featuring aggressive vocals, breakdowns, and melodic choruses.

Before the official release, we’re gathering honest feedback from listeners to help evaluate the album’s strengths and identify areas that could be improved.

We’re particularly interested in feedback on:

Individual tracks and standout moments

Songwriting, vocal performances, and breakdowns

Variety and consistency across the album

Overall album flow and pacing

Anything that feels weak, repetitive, or out of place

This is a genuine feedback exercise, not a promotional campaign. Critical opinions are welcome, and there’s no expectation to praise the material.

The listening test uses private SoundCloud embeds and a questionnaire covering each track and the album as a whole.

Interested in participating? Visit: https://tally.so/r/LZAxMy

Thank you to everyone willing to contribute their time and honest opinions.
