so after spending most of the day plastering the forum with posts in order to get up to 50... I've now listened to the entire Columbus show. Seems like the focus has been on Scott's vocals, so I'll give my rantings on the Columbus show out of 10 per song:
1. Big Empty - safe, but sounded pretty good. 7/10
2. Wicked Garden- very solid. Kind of surprised me how much he nailed it 8/10
3. Big Bang Baby- absolutely terrible. Either stop playing it, or figure out how to sing it 3/10
4. Vasoline - a little better than Kimmel. Pretty solid. 7/10
5. Lady Picture Show - NAILED IT. Not a huge fan of the song, but he was on and the solo was terrifc 9/10
6. Lounge Fly- Lyrical screw ups and average on delivery. Seemed like a fish out of water 5/10
7. Sour Girl - I didn't like how fast they played the song, and Weiland was flustered by it. They also changed up the ending of the song, and lack of practice with Weiland threw him off as the song wrapped up. Otherwise he sounded ok 6/10
8. Creep - fairly safe, but sounded good. 7/10
9. Plush - he's had a lot of practice with this one and you can tell
9/10
10. Interstate Love Song - it was a little flat and didn't have the soaring drive it usually does, but Weiland sounded very good 8/10
11. Coma- Weiland didn't even attempt the pre-chorus high notes, which is weak. He also mixed up the order of lyrics and screwed up. Sounded ok on other parts 6/10
12. Down - AWESOME! Nailed the high notes. Sang the beginining perfectly. Ended it about as well as he ever has 9/10
13. All in the Suit That you Wear- The intro into the song was terrible. Mostly Weiland's fault I'm sure, again, for not practicing enough. Otherwise, pretty good. 7/10
14. Sex Type Thing - SOLID! I guess singing that song with VR helped out 8.5/10
15. Trippin' - MUCH BETTER THAN KIMMEL. Phew, I was worried I'd be embarassed agian by this one. 7/10
16. Dead & Bloated - Solid 8/10
That's my rating. That's about an average of 6.7 out of 10 per song. Not bad and it'll only get better. Honestly, the only one I thought was unacceptable was Big Bang Baby... and the rest was more rhythm and lyrics problems than anything else. Good job Scott! This should only get better.
