Swingin' Ryan Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 The most requested piece from the US National Archives (of photographs and documents), more requested than the Bill of Rights or even the Constitution of the United States, is the photograph of Elvis Presley shaking hands with then-President Richard Nixon at the White House.

Dan G Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 My Minds Weapon debut EP is out now in ONE UP price 4.99.... Just kidding Glenn Danzig made more money from Metallica's covers of Misfit songs on "Garage Inc" than anything from his musical career. He got 10 cents for each song on each album sold.-3 Misfits songs on Garage Inc (Die, Die My Darling/Last Caress/Green Hell)-Garage Inc sold over 4 million copies-10cents x 3 = 30cents per copy sold. 4 million times 30cents = $1.2millionI wish Metallica covered my songs...

Guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 As much as I hate to admit it.Nick Rhodes (Duran Duran) is actually shit at synths.... none of his stuff is ever live and always has to be re-done an obscene quantity of times.I know the engineer who worked on their last album.
