    I've seen the single out, but i havn't seen the album.
    i agree with you about his voice.. i'd like to hear the rest of
    the album.

    My band is doing a cover of this song...guess who gets to sing it?!?
    
    Buck, wearing tight underwear for that last note!!

    
    
    	I have NEVER heard anyone (male) screech so high at the
    	end of a tune, but you're right, Wayne.  I like the song
    	and I'd like to hear the rest of the album but haven't
    	seen it anywhere...
    
    	Let me know what anyone hears, huh?
    	
    	tigg~~~

       Actually Tigga, have you ever heard Wayne when he gets nailed
    with a softball????

    	bwahahahahaahh... I'll have to find out this summer

    	RE: Wayne
    
    	BTW ... I happened to see ONE Steelheart cassette at
    	Lechmere in Greendale Mall last night.  Only ONE. 
    	And they didn't have it on CD at all.
    
    	So... the album IS out there but it looks like it's going
    	to be hard to find.
    	
    	tigga~~~~ who was going to pick it up for ya but wasn't
    		  sure if you wanted cassette or not

    
    
    	I've had this album since at least August, so it IS out there
    	somewhere.  The album's good.  A couple of ballads, and some 
    	b*llsy rock, too.  
    
    
    Steve
    
    	PS  Could a mod change that title from 'Steal Heart' to
        'Steelheart'?  It's bugging me.  ;^)

    
    
    	RE: Steve
    
    	Thanks... I've been meaning to do that myself.
    
    	I did pick up the CD a few weeks ago and haven't listened
    	to the entire thing yet (been too busy listening to Patsy
    	Kline) but I find his voice to be somewhat annoying with
    	that constant screech sound.
    
    	Maybe it'll grow on me.
    
    	tigga~~~

    
    I havent checked it out either and I do not like his voice, but Jack
    says it's awesome and every tune is great and the music is something
    like TNT.  Now that that's said, I'll wait for Buck to go get it and
    tell me if Jack is right or wrong :').
    
    Rob
    

    Hey Rob,
    
    I already have it!  In fact, it *almost* was one of my two tunes!!
    ;^)  Now, i wouldn't say every song roooled, but it is a good CD,
    in the Beau Nasty vein if you ask me.  Also, I don't know about the
    TNT reference...

    ...i would love to see these guys live, if only to see if he can
    re-produce those notes live......it'd be great if he could......if
    anyone hears of them playing in the boston area in the future, please
    post it here....they'd fit into "tuesday metal night at Narcissus or
    weds nites at Axis" category........../k

    SH are supporting Little Angels in Cardiff sometime soon.

    re: .11...if you go to the show, let us know how the singer sounded
    live, OK??..../k

    .........FYI ...........i heard that Steelheart are playing at AXIS in
    Boston on May 1st........../k

    -1
    
    Will they never let you go, /k?

    .......RE -1..I will definitely be there...i want to hear this mans
    voice for myself......./k

    
    
    	Also Derringers in Brockton I believe on the 3rd of May

    ...well i was at Axis last night and all i can say is ...OH MY GOD!...
    this guy not only can reproduce what is on the tape but actually sounds
    better live......it was a spectacular show!......they definitely have
    thier "act" down....very very entertaining....ok, so there are a
    couple of synchronized moves that the whole band does, but it's
    entertaining......i don't want to spoil the show for anyone by saying
    much else, but if you like the music, definitely go see this band
    live....right now, they are playing some  of the smaller venues across
    the country but I am positive the next time they come around, it'll be
    in some massive place, so catch them while you can in a club.....they
    put on a great show!!................/k
    

    I believe they play at Deringers tomorrow night....
    
    /wc
    

    
    
    	RE-1 YUP.

    ....believe me, if Derringers wasn't in Brockton, I'd be there again to
    see these guys...however, i value my life so i guess i'll have to miss
    this show....sniff sniff............../k

    
    I didn't think Brockton was all THAT bad. What did I miss?

    
    	I went down there to see Mystery City, and I didn't see any-
    	one causing trouble at all.
    
    	Like the time my father told me I shouldn't go to The Mohawk
    	Club in Shirley [The Fools were playing there] because the
    	place was "known for trouble".  So I skipped the show and I
    	heard about it the next day ... everything went smoothly.
    
    							GTI
    

    .....whatever.....derringers is the place where the guy in FLESH got
    shot or knifed or something (can't remember right now)....the stage
    has a glass window behind it where apparently people used to do drive
    by shootings through the window at the bands...i think it's boarded up
    now.......Brockton in general has had a horrendous reputation for
    years.../k

    yeah, Mike ( drummer for Flesh ) was slashed in the face with a
    bicycle chain and has permanent damage to his left eye.
     The area the club is located in is a "high crime area" according to      
    Brockton police. 
    Peter 

    
    Hmmm, thanks for the info...

    
    	RE: Mohawk club
    
    	If I'm not mistaken, it was closed down because they were
    	caught serving to minors.  But of course that was WAY
    	before my time. (8
    
    	tigga~~~

    ..getting back to the subject at hand....I would STILL go see this band
    ...even to brockton if i  had several large people to go with
    me...cause they are that worth seeing.......i predict that they will be
    huge......./k
    

    well, i know he's lost an eye, but i didn't think it would be
    fair to Michael to broadcast this info via this network.
    sorry for deviating from the subject.
    Peter

    
    
    
    	sorry if I offended- note deleted.....

    Steelheart began recording Jan. 13th and it slating a spring release
    for their second LP.
    
                    Frizkid
    

    
    
    	I just got the first CD  (ok, so I'm a little slow) and
    	I like it!
    

    The first lp is *ok*.  I put thgem in the same category as Beau Nasty
    (aka, will they ever be more than a one hit wonder?).

    What hit did Beau Nasty have?
    
                  Frizkid
    

    Are you and Buck agreeing again!?
    
    Mercy!

    Paradise in the Sand... Beau Nasty

    
    Re: Frizpup
    
    	I don't know about out there, but here Paradise iIn The Sands was
    the only reason anyone knows of Blow Nasty.
    
    RE: Steelheart
    
    	I haet never let you go. The other ballad is cool.
    
    

    Chrispup: Thanks.....But I've never heard of that song.
    
                  Sounds like a kitty-cat song.

    His voice can be VERY annoying.....
    
    

    
    	RE: His voice can be VERY annoying....
    
    	Got that right!  I like the band but I had to take the
    	CD out after the first couple of songs because his voice
    	was driving me NUTS.
    
    	tigg~~~

    
    I love his voice!! Way roolin!

    
    	RE: I love his voice!!  Way roolin!
    
    	That is your opinion, not fact.
    	(; (; (;
    
    	tigg~~~~

    
    Das is true!
    
    I WISH I could sing like that!

    
    	Beau Nasty ROOLZ ... "Paradise ..." was one of the worst songs on
    	that album.
    
    	"Love Potion #9", as mentioned, cranks!!  And there's a bunch of
    	other great songs on there also.

    Pete....Is he Opera trained?  BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

    
    Who cares?

    I thought you did?
    
                Frizkid
    

    I watchin the"Never Let you go"vidio over my Folks house,and after my
    Dad made his usual comments(Bet he has to get up early to curl that 
    hair;Doesn't he have anything in those tight pants;etc..)he says"
    "What a Homono Saprano"     I said"Dad,that ain't funny,but can I tm.
    that"...
    
          Crazy_whats_the_singers_name,anyways_Al

    ...question??.....is it his voice that bugs you or is it the way it's
    used in the production of the various songs...i happen to like his
    voice ALOT....it's very powerful etc...i've seen him live so i KNOW he can
    sing...but sometimes his voice annoys me too so i thought about why it
    annoys me...it's not the tone or timbre, to me, it's the way they use
    or OVERuse his abilities on  many of the songs...can get extremeley 
    repetitive etc......all of the tunes are built around his amazing 
    vocal ability and that in itself can get overused..IMO...anybody else 
    see this??........./k 

    
    It annoys me. It's not a bad voice, it's just the way he uses it. I
    wanna plug my ears when I hear it.

    
    Arrrghhhh - I hate the guy!!!
    
    His voice *sounds* teriible, however he can sing very well.
    
    That may sound like a contradiction, but there is a fine line between
    singing and sounding good.
    
    Examples :- o  Ozzy can't *sing* for toffee, but his voice SOUNDS
    		   great.
                o  Bruce Dickinson can sing well, but his voice (to my ears) 
    		   has no dynamics - its just a drone.
    		o  Mark Slaughter has a very good voice (ability wise) but
    		   the *sound* of his voice grates on some people.
    
    Get what I mean ?

    
    	Mariah Carey is the sme way, IMO.

    Steelheart - Tangled in Reins comes out June 9th.

    
    	Well, I listened to "Tangled in Reins" last night, and have to
    	say it compares very well with their first album.
    
    	"Late for the Party" is a catchy tune:
    
    	"Call me black, call me white,
    	call me anything you like,
    	Just don't call me late for the party."
    
    	And the band's anthem, "Steelheart", cranks ... starts out
    	slow and strange [vocals in the background, stereo F/X, etc.]
    	but picks up.
    
    	Basically, if you liked their first, I think you'll like this
    	one.
    							GTI

    On Halloween night Steelheart played here in Denver with Slaughter....
    
    During Steelheart set the scafolding fell on the lead singer's head and
    fractured his head and broke his jaw.
    
         I hope he'll be o.k.....
    
     Friz
    

    What a drag!  I mean, I'm not really into their music, but I hate to
    hear about someone getting hurt like that.

    	re: Friz
    
    	Wow!  That's awful news.  He'll be out of commission for 
    	quite a while!
    

    RE: 58...Pretty un-christian like sentiment, isn't it?......./k

    ...i saw the smiley...i just thought you exhibited a fairly misplaced
    sense of humor over someone elses serious injury...a fractured skull
    and a broken jaw sounds like serious stuff to me.....hence the
    comment that i believe you deserve to be called on..... since you
    seem to point that particular finger so often to others......./k
    
     

Major bummer indeed.  I broke my jaw in a dirt bike wreck and had to 
have my jaw wired.  Six weeks of chocolate shakes and baby food is a 
MAJOR drag.

Hope he'll be okay!!

    Then you won't mind the next time it's used on you...../k

    
    Oi,
    
    Don't go raggin' on my country mate or we'll send the boys round to
    trim off your plums.

    
    	Anything new in the works for these guys?
    
    	It's been awhile ... over 3 years, actually.
    

    I just listened to their last CD again just the other night.
    For some strange reason I liked it a lot better than when I first
    heard it. ;)
    
    As for what's in the works for these guys I think they're still under 
    contract to replace every bit of glass that their singer's voice was 
    responsible for breaking.
    
    Shane, who loves inside jokes

    The new notes in thie string caused me to read back a bit -- and the
    following is a great example of why /k will ALWAYS and FOREVER be my
    favourite H_M noter!!  Here she slugs it good to former long-time H_M
    noter/moderator Greg House:
    
    
    >>                   <<< Note 390.65 by AD::FLATTERY >>>
    >>
    >>Then you won't mind the next time it's used on you...../k
    

    
    	Actually, the offending person apparently deleted his/her notes,
    	so it wasn't Greg.  Might have been Heiser.
    

I'd put my money on Heiser
