I have the feeling the band is lacking enthusiasm in the last years. Maybe it's because they got where they wanted to be, maybe it's because they're older, but I don't see the same drive they used to have a decade or more ago. The newer albums seem, to me, to be a bit lifeless in comparison to the older ones, the strength, the punch is missing. I say the same about the tours, except for the current one. There is a special spark there again, which I hope can be tranferred to a possible new album.

Will they go back to their roots? I don't see it happening, I don't think it's them anymore. Can they still make a great album? I definitely think they have it in them still.

I listened to the new Crue album the other day....and it just reminded me how good Dr.Feelgood was.

I personally dont think BJ should try and recapture the magic of SWW / NJ / KTF. Because, lets face it, you cant capture lightning in a bottle. To me, BJ will probabaly never hit the heights of Prayer, Wanted, Bad Medcine, KTF, Dry county, etc.

Those 3 albums were BJ at thier best, and 3 of the few albums I can listen to without skipping any tracks. And mostly when you try and recapture that magic you always end up disspointing.... New Indy move, Rambo, new eagles album, Phantom ****ing menace...

I'm happy to go on whatever musical direction BJ want to go on...I think Lost Highway is good album, its probabaly had more airplay in my car then Bounce or HAND

Anyway, if you dont like the new stuff, you can always chuck in one of the older albums... :)
