New tommy stinson cd? (what if)

[russtcb]

What's also interesting to note about this album was that Stinson brought the majority of these songs forward to GN'R, but was supported by Axl to do his own thing on the side and get the recognition he deserved for them.

He obviously learned his lesson from Slash's Snakepit.

Who learned a lesson from Snakepit, Axl or Tommy? And how?

Im not sure if i should get the normal version or the Promo version ?

I have some promo CD's where there's a voice saying "this is a promo" throughout the songs. Not sure if you want to chance that unless someone else has a copy already and can verify that it doesn't have this mechanical voice throughout.

Not the case with Tommy's cd.

To be honest, this is the first time I hear something like this...

Same here, From what band are these promos?

I'm a huge fan of Tommy's entire back-catalog (obviously. lol), and would kill to hear a follow-up to Village Gorilla Head.  Something with more of a Perfect or Bash & Pop vibe, or even going slightly more into the territory he's delved into with GN'R would be great.  It shows how versatile of a musician he is that he can play Johnny Thunders-influenced punk, to more chilled out, Stones/Faces style rock, to "mature" singer/songwriter tracks, to what he's doing in GN'R, which seems to fuse classic rock with nu-metal, with no end of other styles.

Realistically though, I don't see any new material surfacing by Tommy until after GN'R are finished their cycle of touring and (hopefully) album releases... which could be next year, could be in 5 years time.  I'm just really hoping Tommy plays as major role with Chinese Democracy as I assume he has... his playing in The Blues is great.  Would like to see him really step it up on the bass in a few other tracks.

By the way, did any of you check out the movie score he did with BT for the Catch & Release movie?


Yet another side of Tommy....

I checked out a little bit of that.  Haven't gotten around to buying the album yet, but from what I've heard it's beautiful.

[Just_Me]

A new album from Tommy would be brilliant!  I've been listening to both VGH and Perfect's album a lot recently and I love both of them.  Esspecially the song Thing I Call My Life, for some reason I love it more than usual recently.

I'd also love it if he did another solo tour since I missed out last time.

But as MrRedfield said I don't see it happening until after GNR stuff is done, which is a shame.

[Tank]

I just ordered VGH this afternoon.  Hopefully it'll be pretty kickass!

I bought it as soon as it came out.

I'll watch the movie tonight...

[Chief]

Really? where did you hear that about those songs?

At the 1:05 minute mark of the song "Couldn't Wait", isn't that Axl in the background?

What's also interesting to note about this album was that Stinson brought the majority of these songs forward to GN'R, but was supported by Axl to do his own thing on the side and get the recognition he deserved for them. Also, Sean Beaven is the producer of the CD, which I believe added a lot of the extra layers to the songs (I could be wrong, but if you hear Sean's solo CD with his wife you'd know what I meant).

Tank, be sure to tell us what you think. *I* think you've just done yourself a huge favor .

Chief, there used to be a Yahoogroup/mailinglist for Tommy. It was set up back in the day when he was touring, and as it started to got spammed badly and there was low "real" traffic, it was given up in favor of tommystinsonforum.com . I got the info about the movies & stuff from there (and I think I read an Interview with Tommy about it too, maybe it was on the list/forum too).

"The two best parts of the film are the few amazing shots featuring the natural beauty of Boulder, Colorado and the nice little soundtrack with some real gems. "

Yeah, I started to see that there was a lack of forums dedicated to Tommy.  Plenty for GN'R and The Replacements, but none specifically for Tommy.  I knew of the Yahoo Group, but I've never liked those things, so decided it was about time someone made one.  That someone being me.   The next month, I got a message from Tommy's webmaster letting me know that he was going to tell Tommy that he was changing the link on his website over... and then it wasn't long after that before the Yahoo Group was disbanded completely.  We don't get a huge amount of traffic over there (which is nice, because I was afraid I'd get thrown in at the deep end. lol), but we have got some really cool members, all friendly.  So far have had none of the hassle I've seen other admins have to put up with.
New members are always welcome.

Anyway back onto Tommy... now that he's got a movie score under his belt, it'd be nice to see Tommy and Richard working together on a score for something.
