Right, it's subjective. I do dig Dave and the Foo Fighters somewhat. As in, I wouldn't buy their music, but I'm not revolted is someone plays it. I'd also go to a show with someone that's a big fan. I went to the KISS reunion tour in 1996 because a friend was a big fan. Glad I did. Their stage show was phenomenal. The best part was....Alice in Chains opened in what was one of Layne Staley's last shows in Louisville. Man.....AiC was friggin absolutely all that.

Finishing up the derail, I saw 311 with Heavy Weather and NoFX at Bogart's back in about 95.....what a shit hole venue, and what a loud ass show!

Lucky you. When they came to Cincy i was there and i had no remembrance of who opened. I just looked it up and it was a band called D Generation.

I just dislike a particular sound, that comes primarily from "country" artists. There are certainly songs from some that i've liked over the years but as a whole, i don't like the way it hits my ears, the same way you don't like most heavy metal.
That just happens to be my favorite type of music, but even then, i don't like all of it. You'd probably run for the hills if you had to listen to what i'm currently listening to/playing.
Hey faulk....eat yo heart out!

I’ve always regretted not getting to see them before he died. He had the best voice of anyone from that scene, imo.

That’s part of the charm! I’ll always prefer the little spots like Bogarts or Madison Theater over bigger places like Riverbend.

If you have a big garage, 2-3 car you could set up inside the garage with the door(s) open. It would give plenty of overhang and access to electric assuming the garage is wired and not full of junk like my garage, but you'd probably have a good 20 foot back wall for a screen. If the back wall is too far away or some other reason like full of tools, etc., you still have the ceiling and walls to hang a screen from.
Just my own ideas.. I have a nice TV and comfortable couch..AC and central heat close to bathroom and kitchen..No particular reason to want to do it outside myself..
I don’t find rain too often around here in the mountain/tri state area, BUT the hell with this July 4th week. Been a torrential downpour thunderstorm almost every single day.

Absolutely agree, I felt like they were the best band from that scene as well. They kicked KISS' teeth in music wise.

Also agree generally speaking, but it was the flowing piss in the bathroom floor that was the deal breaker.
You literally had to pull your pant legs up when you walked in, or they'd get soaked.

Yeah, Buckethead rocks no doubt Tony.
Will check out Soothsayer, think I have heard of the name before...
You and I have the same thoughts on metal. Love the underground stuff as you said in your other post.

Nirvana was immensely talented (well - at least Grohl as a musician and Cobain as a songwriter), and certainly far more than “pop music.” The Unplugged in NY album alone is proof enough of that.
Yeah, always liked Nirvana myself. One of the few times I have ever disagreed with Wyche on anything..
But hey, it happens right?
Have the Unplugged album, even my Dad likes it and he hates a lot of the hard stuff I listen to.

Grohl and that band rock from start to finish. Was watching them on TV on Austin City Limits over the 4th of July
weekend and man those guys namely Dave never let up from the first song to the last. Dave goes into the crowd
and jams with old ladies and little kids, classy dude.
Never liked KISS at all, too damn repetitive. But I bet their live shows are good like you say.
Alice Cooper rocks though big time and still does at 70. He has some hot chick as his lead guitarist!

Layne was great. Cannot even base my vocals off of him he was so good, great howl.
I go with Scott Weiland instead who I can sound like. Sometimes you have to face your limits as a singer.
