Re: Seeing live bands
kinda sporadic who tours around here, my last gig other tthan friends bands was queens of the stone age in manchester. any of ypu guys living in northern europe where they tour extensively, or, more rarely the US, should try to see dan baird & homemade sin or his other band the yayhoos. (dan was with the georgia satellites years back) I can honestly say I've never seen any act put on a show as enjoyable as theirs

Re: Seeing live bands
I love live music. I was sitting down to remember all the shows I've been to but after seeing the list I don't fell like writing a wall of text. Let's just hit the highlights.
Major acts and dates as far as my addled brain will recall.

US version of The Monsters of Rock: Kingdom Come/ Metallica/ Dokken/ Scorpions/ Van Hagar Miami Fl '88
Cheap Trick Ft Lauderdale '88
Gregg Allman Coconut Grove Fl '88
Pink Floyd '88 Miami
Elton John Columbia MD late '90s
.38 Special/ Lynard Skynard II/ Allman Bros. Columbia MD early to mid 90's
Seplatura/Ozzy I think there were others but the recreational pharmaceuticals make it all alittle blurry. York PA mid 90's
Blue Oyster Cult late 90's to early 2000's York PA
Hot Tuna/ Allmans 01 or so Hershey PA
Rod Stewart 05 or so Hershey PA
Dropkick Murphys with about 15 other Celt/Punk bands at Shamrock Fest last year Wash. DC
And the bulk of my major shows
Grateful Dead ,'89-'95 All over the US
20+ shows countless parking lots and alot of different opening acts
More to follow on the Cameo Theater in Miami Beach (mid to late '80s Punk venue)

Re: Seeing live bands
The Reverend picked another mean sermon on the guitar. The show was awesome, I got so drunk on Jager bombs (blech), Jameson and Bud Lite I blacked out. Woke up in a hookah bar, smelled like they were smoking incense, perfume, and rubber. I remember I had to get out of there and get some fresh air, stumbled over some hippies, and blacked out again.kowalski wrote:Hell yeah!ThirstyDrunk wrote:REVEREND HORTON HEAT TONIGHT!
Woke up wearing a kickass RHH workshirt.
Hell yeah indeed.

Re: Seeing live bands
I have seen the good Reverend on several occasions. The first was also the first time that I had ever heard of them. They opened for Social Distortion. That was around 1991; the concert was at Bogart's in Cincinnati.
The last concert that I went to was Puscifer.

Seeing them on Friday the 13th at the Molson Ampitheatre in Toronto would be awesome!

Re: Seeing live bands
I never got the chance to see 'em back in the day. This should make up for it.
