And someone tell him to start listening to The Cure again.
Pumpkins = Cheezy metal + The Cure + Shoegaze And Oceania already kinda had a light shoegaze thing going |

Atleast Tommy has his own thing going on

I'm far from being a Mike apologist, but I don't understand how someone can complain about Mike's fills and flat sound but praise Tommy Lee. It doesn't make any fucking sense.
That was more of the Black Sabbath, Dio, early Scorpions, and Judas Priest influence than cheese 80s glam metal. |

How so? How does it specifically sound like it was directly influenced by 80s glam metal?

The word "contemporary," as used in the music and arts, has a very specific meaning. That's generally why movements/styles are grouped together and music is allotted into distinct decades.
By the way, your dictionary definitions really don't contradict what I'm saying here. Here's some more for you, since you insist con·tem·po·rar·y (kən-tĕm′pə-rĕr′ē) adj. 1. Belonging to the same period of time: a fact documented by two contemporary sources. 2. Of about the same age. 3. Current; modern: contemporary trends in design. 1. One of the same time or age: Shelley and Keats were contemporaries. 2. A person of the present age. |

the other thing is that i'm pretty sure tommy lee said "mentor" in regards to bonham, so i'm not sure why you're telling me about "contemporary" when it's what araneae re: the comment about bonham being one of his "all time drumming mentors" which doesn't make any sense
further, like araneae said. They are not "contemporaries" because they existed at the same time, in the world. No more than I am a contemporary of Motley Crue. Motley Crue's contemporaries were Guns and Roses, Poison, shitty ass Areosmith and etc. god damn it kreator |

Exactly. Much like how SP was a contemporary of Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Hole, etc. They belonged to the same music generation. Motley Crue and Led Zeppelin do not.

I imagine Billy waiting by the phone, waiting for Tommy Lee's phone calls. When he speaks to him, Billy is blushing and twirling the phone cord, trying to not sound nervous.
