Every comment reads like a parody. Especially the one about having a drink in the pub in the sky. There was another about rocking with Bon Scott in heaven. When Bob Dylan snuffs it, someone is bound to mention that he can play with the other dead Wilbury in the great gig in the sky or similar utterly but predictable childish response. It's interesting though, this attempt to inability to deal with mortality from people, many of whom are boomers who have been deluded that their heroes, and by extension themselves, are forever young.

"Every comment reads like a parody" should be the SHTV banner.

What makes Shites so sure he went to Heaven? Didn't AC/DC boast of being on the highway to Hell? Didn't they gleefully break just about all of the ten commandments? They even have attempted murder on their band rap sheet. What is to stop God from saying, "Fuck you, Malcolm. You had your chance to live the straight and narrow and you pissed it away. You are hereby sentenced to 40,000 years in hell, followed by another 10,000 years of house arrest in purgatory." Isn't any rocker worth his salt supposed to want to go to Hell?

I am going to take a wild guess that there is no heaven, no hell, and that only 4 year olds and SHites persist in this infantile notion that dead people are sharing a drink and a tune at the pub in the afterlife. (The 4 year olds at least have an excuse for such infantile thoughts; the SHites get extra points for their bizarre hope that an alcoholic is now having a drink with his dead buddies.) There's a huge party going on when people bite it, and they all get together and jam! There is an old song with the same premise - something about there being a hell of a band. Maybe these guys thought that was real. While on the subject, what is with the obsession with death on that forum? Half of the people with death threads I've never even heard of. Pretty much anyone that ever played an instrument at any time in their life gets there own death thread and a send off to join the band of dead guys jamming.

Pretty much anyone that ever played an instrument at any time in their life gets there own death thread and a send off to join the band of dead guys jamming. This touches on a question I always had... If this "Heaven" is a place, and good people go there when they die (and maybe good dogs too, but not good centipedes or good mosquitoes or good slugs, I hope), what do the people there look like? Are they all 27 forever? Did Heaven get Velvets-era Lou Reed or Coney Island Baby Lou Reed? Would an really old guy, Al Jolson perhaps, appear as the same age as Jeff Buckley in Heaven? I don't quite get the logistics of how Heaven would work, let alone how they would apportion stage time and things like that. Not to mention, is all music in Heaven heavenly? What happens if John Lennon pulls out a guitar or harp or whatever they use up there and starts a rousing rendition of "Woman is the Nigger of the World"... Would it sound good in Heaven, or would it sound as bad as always? Could he get kicked out of Heaven if he plays too many sucky songs? And about the bar... Can you get drunk in Heaven? If you can, can you also become belligerent in Heaven? Can you and your drunken posse go kick the asses of some angels on the streetcorner? Are there cops in Heaven to maintain order when such things occur? It's too fucking binary for me. If I could be bothered to dream about an afterlife, I think I'd be a Buddhist. I am much more down with being everything and nothing at the same time than I am being sent to some goody-goody town. I bet Karen Carpenter did get to heaven, being a virgin and all. Reason enough to avoid it. As for death threads, what else is there to talk about there? The guys croaking now mostly haven't been newsworthy in 40 years or so at least. Not much to say bout David Cassidy's albums of the 80's-10's, but at least when he croaks we can talk about how underrated he was.

"It is a horrible idea that there is someone who owns us, makes us, supervises us, waking and sleeping, who knows our thoughts and can convict us of thought crimes, who can judge us while we sleep for things that might occur to us in our dreams, who can create us sick, as apparently we are, and then order us on pain of eternal torture to be well again. To demand this, to wish this to be true, is to wish to live as an abject slave."
-Cristopher Hitchens
I'm just saying...

Love the thought that musicians in heaven would all: Play perfectly and in time All be in tune Not get pissied about never getting a solo Not be jealous of the lead singer
Which brings me to: do they fuck in heaven? Do the groupies from earth continue to be groupies and blow the drummer behind the white satin curtains in the catering area?

There shall be no fornication in heaven. And verily they will rejoice in their audiophool Woo. The shills shall inherit the Earth.
So sayeth the Lord (STeVE). Peace be upon Lee Ass and jh90210.
Amen.

Wouldn't it be a twist if they did play perfectly in tune, drink a few beers, never let their egos get in the way of a performance, had adoring groupies from earth, all appeared as their younger selves rather than how they were at the end of their lives BUT, the sound quality was brickwalled, EQ'd, and amplified through 1980 Amstrad-quality speakers.

Ironically, these SHites would be the first to ridicule the average low-intelligence Islamic State suicide bomber for believing he'll have 72 virgins waiting for him in heaven. But at least that kid isn't so stupid as to think there are drum kits, amplifiers and pubs up there.

Love this one:
How does ticket booking work? Do they have touts there as well? Are limited edition coloured vinyls on sale in heaven?
