The golfers' Music Room

First topic message reminder :

Cover wise it's hard to look past Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley, not usually my kind of thing but the haunting beauty of his voice is a guilty pleasure, one of the weaker songs on his only true album to be fair.

I love that Prince solo and i've always got to the end and thought the exact same thing 'where the **** did his guitar go?', can't go wrong with a bit of Stevie Ray Vaughan but not a fan of Hendrix being covered, it's near impossible to get the guitar tone right to do him justice but SRV does an admirable job.

Super

Spotify only has any respectability because of the artists it has on the platform. Why should Neil Young help build a brand that then goes and wastes that reputation on someone spouting anti science during a pandemic?

Some of the claims made by Rogan.

Young people don't need a covid vaccine

’Ivermectin can drive this pathogen to extinction’

“I’m not gonna get vaccinated. I have antibodies, it doesn’t make any sense.”

Lockdowns ‘make things worse’

In what world is it petulant to disassociate yourself from things you believe to be harmful?

Correct me if im wrong Mac, but didnt the JCVI actually state that only children aged 5-11 who were in a clinical risk group or a household where someone else was should bother getting a vaccine?

You are wrong in the sense that Rogan was meaning people who are not over 65 as "young people". He counted himself as a fit young person.

Ha ha. Hes a fat git.

That is ridiculous mac, he never said or meant that. His main thing is that adolescents might be at higher risk of myocarditis from the vaccine, but he fails to recognise that covid causes far more cases of myocarditis. CNN's doctor had ample opportunity to set Rogan straight on this point but didn't. An Australian guest (name escapes me) recently firmly pulled Rogan up on this.

Anything in Taylor Hawkins. Really good drummer, though must have been hard drumming in a bad with Dave Grohl. Who is immense as a drummer.

I love the foo fighters. Great songs.

On a separate note, I've had Alexa playing Faith no More, forget how good they are. Mike Patton is so talented.
