frowning. i respect him even thru all the metallica bullshit.

As I understand it Jason Newstead has A LOT of odd recordings with different people that he is now starting to put out on his own label.
I got this from an interview with him maby 6 months ago.
I really can't remember where.

[Dr. Gonzo]

someone said they respect jason newsted!

AHAAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHahahahahhahahaha!!

[Jess]

and why shouldn't they respect him dr. gonzo?  because he made music that you don't like?  well i would bet that if you ever put out an album he wouldn't like it.

[The Piss-Machine]

Has anyone heard the album that he did w/Voivod? Me likey what little Voivod I've heard, and am wondering what the Newsted brings to the table.

[Dr. Gonzo]

it's not a matter of his music...

It's a matter of him in the metallica videos constantly bitching and getting picked on... funny stuff

And then he joined Ozzy(Ew) and left after he had left metallica.

Another band I'm looking forward to hearing material from is the band with Kim Thayil and Alfredo Hernandez... that should be amazing.

what the hell? I haven't heard about this... can you direct me to some info?

[Dr. Gonzo]

my source, and the only one i know about is from a guitar world that came out like 2 or 3 months ago... It had top 100 metal or rock guitarists of all time. If you find Kim Thayil it said he's been off the radar since Soundgarden but we'll be hearing material in the future from his band with alfredo hernandez.

kim thayil played a solo on the new Probot album
