Astrotoy7 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 I have the dubious serendipity of having seen a few bands before they became HUGE....saw Nirvana many moons ago at a sub-pop promotion tour. I thought they were a bunch of stoners,even back then Kurt did the 'jump on Dave Grohls drumkit' thang...I really went to this gig to see Mudhoney, who ROCK, but never broke through into the mainstream, especially after Nirvana made it big.... Saw Rage Against the Machine at a festival here too just before their Evil Empire album came out, so mainly tracks off the first record only, they were more underground back then..... I actually mainly do attend festivals, and have seen Chilli Peppers Foo Fighters ....which Im not really huge fans of I HAVE seen Public Enemy, as far back as 1990, on their first tour here to Austalia. I have seen the Beastie Boys too. I do think they are verging on being a little too self righteous nowadays but I guess that comes with age and $$$...... The only rap acts that I would still love to see are KRS-1 and maybe Ice-T but Im sures he's too busy with "SVU" nowadays In the metal world, I have seen Slayer, Morbid Angel, Metallica(1989 only...after that they dont exist for me....), Sepultura(1990 I think) and a few of others I wont bore you with.......really want to see Deicide, but they have never made it Australia.... Other notables include The Prodigy, Iggy Pop, Bjork, Chemical Bros, Portishead, even Prince, and yes, my favourite soprano, the wonderful Ms Emma Kirkby...sublime voice tra la la !!! I have seen and even met Henry Rollins enough times to have almost lost count, he's down here ALL the time...... Posthumously I wish I was old enough to have seen The Doors, Led Zepp and Black Sabbath in their heyday... I think that's most of it...I really feel OLD now, with all this nostalgia ! ALSO, to Darth Groovy above, Im a tad envious !! Probably the ONLY reason I've ever wished I lived in the US..... Special mention goes to Atari Teenage Riot. now defunct, but most innovative and brutal 'electronic' act ever.... MTFBWYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Groovy Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 Originally posted by The_One Groovy, I can't believe you saw Faith No More - absolutely sublime band What were they like? The crowd was getting kinda violent, this was before bodysurfing was prohibited. The venue at the time, had a great deal of folding chairs, which get knocked all cattywompus when a mosh pit breaks out. Well alot of fine upstanding citizens were picking up folding chairs and smashing the floor with them, after a few "gentlemen", were escorted out by security, lead singer Mike Patton, pulled up a chair and smashed it on the stage. Alot of fun that Mike Patton is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorganfloss Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 Weird Al in the fifth grade, I think. I met up with my two best friends the day of the concert there. Good times. This was when I was like, all Weird Al oriented. All of us ten year olds were. So yeah, I've only seen Weird Al. We don't get many concerts up here near Blaine.

Father Torque Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 Originally posted by gorganfloss We don't get many concerts up here near Blaine. Are you talking about Blaine, Washington, or someother country/city? Anywho. Does anybody know if AC-DC is still doing theor concert thing. I know they are old, but they are my favorite band. Almost forgot, my friends played a concert for one of the local elementary school picnics. It was a little lame, yet better than the obnoxious blow up clown.

toms Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 Erm: Pink Floyd in the Olympic Stadium in Barcelona - best Gig ever... and i didn't even like pink floyd going in. Red Hot Chili Peppers - little dissapointing as they played almost entirely new stuff for the teeny kids in the audience and very little of their better old stuff. still good though. Audioslave - Really great, in a great venue that suited them (brixton academy), but they need a few more songs under their belt. Van Morrison - really bad. must have been having an off night. Radiohead - Much, much better than i expected with a really funny encore. Pulp - Really good live as Jarvis has a great stage presence Blur - Again, better live than on record. Robert Plant - Excellent live, with a really good Love cover as the sun set on the isle of wight. Seen loads of others at festivals and the like, ones that i remember as being good include Elastica, Starsailor (surprisingly), ash, texas, beck. Was supposed to see the white stripes, but jack went and broke his hand. inconsiderate of him. Ones I wish i had seen / want to see: Rage against the machine, eminem, beastie boys, Smashing pumpkins, nirvana, foo fighters, queens of the stone age, muse. Probably forgotten a lot...

The_One Posted March 4, 2004 Author Share Posted March 4, 2004 Did Dave Matthews Band rule? Judging by their numerous DVD and live albums they are f**king amazing live My brother has just scored tickets to the Chili Peppers in June, who are supported by The Pixies. I hate him I can't go because it's in my A-Level exam week. Bugger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
