No, but I've heard my fair share of bad covers! eg. the crappy version of AC/DC's "Diry Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" that is featured in the movie "Dirty Deeds" and then again KISS's version of "God Gave Rock And Roll To You" (originally performed by Ted Nugent) is WAY beter than the original! later, TXT-1

of course I have heard "stairway to heaven" also have heard "Kashmir", (which Eminem raped) unfortunately the kids of today think eminem created the riff that he "borrowed" from "Kashmir"oh well when people have NO talent they fip off other artist that DO have talent by "borrowing" oher bands riffs/songs/lyical content! and everyone in 10 years under 20 years old will remember Metallica more than Iron Maiden thats the way the cokkie/biscut crumbles! although Maiden's typical new fans are 14-17 years old so maybe that might not be the case but then again I'm not holding my breath. later, TXT-1

actually Firefox, they are more stable then they look, you just have treat the platforms an an extention of your feet you'll be fine I've worn mine out side heaps (in the back yard - it's paved)and I've never twisted an ankle although, I came close once see "trippin'" here in the picture forum. haven't came close to twisting my ankle since! later, TXT-1

I don't really like her music I bought "Oops I Did it Again" because of the red PVC catsuit she wore for the video,and the album was ok for about a month, but it got repeditive VERY quickly! brittney's IQ is 75? Forrest Gump had 70! (thats what they said in the movie) any yes I do realize he is fictional! later, TXT-1

I don't like the very pionted toes they look like comething a munchkin would wear! sorry not keen on them either! later, TXT-1

I think even with her hand maidens, Britney will put both feet in her mouth! it's a matter of time! did she leave half of her brain in that red PVC catsuit she wore in her "Oops, I Did It Again" clip?? as for Motorhead, Sabbath and Zeppelin forgot about them (don't have any Motorhead or Zeppelin, but do have "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath". he "new" Metallica 1996-current has a few good song but generally is a disappontment Cliff Burton (Rip) would be turning in his grave if he knew how bad things Metalllica are now - they don't even do guitar solos anymore! things have changed 180 degrees from 1986 when they released "Master Of Puppets". The new Iron Maiden album "Dance Of Death" is infinitely better than St. Anger (that's my opinon and I'm sticking to it), and features many guitar solos which is good for a band that hasn't and won't sell out Metallica has sold out bug time, the Napster thing,and other little things that I can't remember at thge moment. later, TXT-1

artists Like Bruce Dickinson, Dave Murray, Adrian Smith, Nicko Mcbrain, Yanick Gers and Steve Harris have more talent in their little fingers then Ms Spears has in here Entire Body you might not know these people individually, but put them together, and you have one on the best (if not THE best) heavy metal bands of all time, Iron Maiden! they were formed in May '76, and still going strong of couse there are other bands too AC/DC, KISS, Metallica (pre "Load" (1983-1991), and anything as it isn't dance/drance, or hiphop or rap "music" as I don't see them as music as they don't sing!, then again some Metal vocalists scream "Cookie Monster" style! , I also don't like current music because they seem to have sold out to the "Qantity Not Quality" catch cry, I only hope that Iron Maiden or AC/DC's next album is so good that they help make a lot of other artists to make good albums again! not holding my breath though, especially here as Iron Maiden hasn't toured here in Australia since 1992! ("Fear Of The Dark" tour (phew need to catch my breath ) TALENT, pah! the only talent Britney has is down at the local brothel as she has a shocking taste in fashion! later, TXT-1

this my 150th post! crank up the IRON MAIDEN! Up the Irons! later, TXT-1

when I first got my "avatars", I fell asleep on my bed while wearing them, and I forgot I was wearing them, and nearly twisted an ankle. luckily they weren't either 7" 7.5" or 8.5" platforms or I would have definitley broken an ankle! would have been interesting a cover story, that I would have had to fabricate! (I haven't told all my Dad's side of my family as they don't recognise that I have A disability - they dont want to have any non normality in their family!. and my higher than "normal" interest in Exotic Dancer/Fetish Platforms, they would find it VERY hard to understand and be very confused, so I haven't told them yet! later, TXT-1

it depends, at home stilettos, if I ever go out (in heels) chunkys/wedges! later, TXT-1

Anita I tend to agree with you there, everytime I see her on MTV or any other music channel/show. I'm ALMOST starting to think "Has Been" yes I knew she was talentless when she did that cover of "I love Rock And Roll" at least she didn't do a cover of "Leader Of The Pack"! Just saying that Anita isn't the only one that doesn't like Brittney! later, TXT-1

as the owner of a pair of UK Womens 11/US womens 13 size feet, I'm envious of anyone that has UK Women's 9/US Women's 11 size feet luckily I can get Exotic Dancer/Fetish Plats as they go up to US 14 Women's size, but some people even have trouble fitting into those 14's! later, TXT-1

considering I don't work anymore (employers don't understand my disabilty and think I'm more able than I look - and that's was with a support worker!) I 've worked in a few areas but never had the chance to wear heels at work then again I sorta like the idea, that not alot of people know that I like wearing heels (I'm still heavily closeted, but slowly coming out of it - and like heels a bit higher than what most office Girls/ladies would get away with! <TXT-1 points finger at his avatar> unfortunately I'm a US womens 13 and all the stylish/more sensible shoes stop at 10-12 US womens thats Murphy's Law for you! and I don't hold ANY weapon to anyones head, thats just stupid if the gun goes off accidentally, you could be up for murder! later, TXT-1

Emma, at that height they aren't platforms they are pedestals! :rofl: you would need training (w)heels! later, TXT-1

nope no haven't had an accident wearing heels, infact I haven't driven in heels either! my car is in the "Bush", and my car (march '77 build Datsun 120Y 4 door sedan, known as "The Defect" is just too dangerous to wear my "avatars" while driving! later, TXT-1

I wouldn't use that retort near anyone as you don't know of they do karate (or any other form of self defence) just saying be careful

what you say it could get you in VERY hot water

later,

TXT-1

never been outside in my heels(6" "stripper" plats similar to my avatar) heres a few I thought up just now person: (could either be male or female) "Those are womens shoes!" me: "yeah they are, but I wanted show my inner exotic dancer!" me: (alternative answer) "Boo, hiss!, women have had all the fun! until now!" actally if I had the guts to wear 'em outside number one is what I'd probably say! but these responses would probably prevoke a fight (not really sure as in too chicken to try it!- both the heeling and the retorts) later, TXT-1

when you think that all heels and boots should have at least 4" heels! later, TXT-1

Daz, I remember a former member who was either Squrrelheels, or Yamyam, I can't remember exactly, who it was, said "everyone at least needs one crazy pair of heels!" I agree with it! I'm not going to work at the local stripjoint either! later, TXT-1

yeah I guess he's lucky in that respect, I'm not willing to go out in my plats as I am the complete oppisite end of the scale (i'm 5'11 by the way) and don't want to put up with ridicule so i'm staying in the closet! later, TXT-1

Daz, there is one member who DOES wear his 6" plats outside - White 6 Inch Spike Heels! he does it a lot (bit envious there, as I am weak and not willing to do it ) they are nice shoes and DO come in natural leather (I wish I'd known that when I bought mine!) It's too hot to be wearing them today, so I'm finishing glue together models later, TXT-1

don't loose the keys to those heels that could be a problem , not a real fan of having shoes locked onto my feet though, nice heels though they are nice , very nice later, TXT-1 PS wecome back Julietta!

I would probably have the SMALLEST collection here (2 pairs) I hace my "avatar" shoesm (currently wearing them!) and an old pair of 3.75" block heeled (non plat),fake natural leather, court shoes the make is "Sandra Miller" but my "avatars" get used alot more than my other heels (I don't wear my other ones anymore as they are not high enough ) later, TXT-1

actually,they are very comfertable, and suprisingly stable too! later, TXT-1

it shoudn't take that long to learn how to walk in those 5.5" heels I have a pair of 6" "stripper" plats (see my avatar pic) and it took me 4 hours, yep 4 hours to get used to them! mine are a bit too much for street use though! even under a longer than usual jeans/pants they'd stilll be visable, and they are VERY loud! but then agaain I don't go out in them yet! maybe soon, (if I can gain a tonne of 100 proof Courage!) later, TXT-1
