Red Bull give you wings, but this stuff will leave tire tracks all across your back.

KISS, when reached for comment, said this blatant commercialism was disturbing.

I read an article once about his family/heirs and it was pretty nasty... They constantly go to court against each other and fight all the time about the money. They even dug up Jimmy and placed him in this tacky shrine which I think his father is buried at as well. Yeah, here it is..Wonder if you need to buy tickets to see this thing..What the hell is that thing anyway, a drive in for an ATM??

I'm going to start marketing a Jimmy Carter energy drink. You start out feeling fresh and honest, then develop a malaise, after which people's opinion of you goes straight to hell. You keep popping up everywhere, even places where you don't belong, and making a fool of yourself. I just have to figure out what ingredients to put into the drink to achieve the desired effect.

"...tire tracks all across your back."

Is it purple? Jimi's last "liquid experience" could not have been too pleasant.

If there's a great thing about being dead is that it helps solidify a legacy, usually positive, whether it's deserved or not. Jimi, had he lived, would most certainly have gone on tours presented by Depends, Colt 45, or Oreck Vacuum Cleaners.

Beverage Concepts says its nonalcoholic "Liquid Experience" drinks, named for Hendrix's breakthrough album, "Are You Experienced?" will debut in April.

They are hoping it fares better than the failed grape-flavored drink venture in 1978 with Jim Jones.

The concept is irking some Hendrix fans, many of whom still consider him the greatest guitarist of all time.

It doesn't bother me. Hendrix was the best of the best, but I won't drink that crap anyway.


"To see his image and the beautiful feelings it has created during my lifetime cheapened by base advertising ... is very disappointing to me," said bassist Michael Balzary, better known as Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

From a guy who performed with nothing on but a tube sock over his genitalia? Amazing.

Jimmy is not too energetic anymore. Could be this drink is lethal.

Oh yeah, another thing...How many people out there know that Jimi has a brother named Leon who plays guitar and is still playing out there today? This is not his half brother, but his full brother. For years I never knew there was another Hendrix. Here`s his website:

Janie Hendrix continues to pimp her brother's leagacy.

She's the worst thing that could have happened to Hendrix and his body of work.

Just as an aside, Jimi Hendrix played guitar with Little Richard , until Little Richard fired him. Said he was "too wild."
