I knew when I saw that other post that you were gonna be pissed, KS. Tesla's cool. Maybe I'll cover some in acoustic. What would you recommend? |

Oh, yeah- Tesla also still sucks. |

Very nice KS! Tesla was a fantastic band. Never forget seeing the Firehouse/Tesla show at the World in 93-94?? I'll be along for the 90 days! |

Are there 90 Tesla songs that one can feature? I'm going to go ahead and assume that this will be like Kid Cairo's Hip Hop Song of the Day thread that was forgotten about after a week. |

Plenty of talented musicians write and record shitty songs. Tesla is but one example. "Love Song" has made me want to puke for over 20 years. I have always hated them. And they're one of the fugliest bands ever. Fuck 'em.

I like it KS, I like it. Let me preface this by saying I loathe Love Song, and agree with Shirtless' observations. I love Tesla though. Picture young Dally in Crow's Nest (R.I.P) when he has to ask a clerk, "What the hell is this!" It was EZ Come EZ Go, from Tesla's debut album. I can remember listening to it in rotation with Appetite, and Puppets. Great band, high underrated. I blame that on the heavy rotation syrupy shit like Love Song, and a million knockoff metal bands with identical power ballads. Yuck! |

I sure don't think it is a hardcore analysis of the most underated band of all time. |

And I'm not shitting on Tesla for no reason. My viewpoint that they suck is no less valid than yours that they're great. |

 Lol. Nice outfits. My friend told me today that Tesla's bass player was at The Port Of Kenosha (a bar by my house) the other day. I guess there were like 3 other people in there in the afternoon. The meathead bartender actually recognized him, and Brian Wheat went to his car and pulled out a Hofner poster, and he signed it and I guess it's now on the wall. Why was the bass player of Tesla in Kenosha? God only knows. Tesla blows. |

Oh, it's all in good fun.  I don't mean any offense to the band, or it's fans. And I certainly don't celebrate the studio fire. That said, I honestly think they didn't get as big in the late 80's because 80% of the band were butt fucking ugly (Tommy being the exception), at a time where it seemed like mostly girls were into that kind of music. "Chicks"like the singer, and Jeff Keith looked like a dog's butthole.
