Ya... Its weird. Ill be listining to some old cd or something and think, "shit... I saw this band. 15 years ago. wow." Been to soooo many shows. I honestly havent been to a decent concert in a few years. Sad. One of the best ever was the Dropkick Murphys, w/ the Hudson Falcons in Atlanta about 11 years ago. It was nuts. The Jesus Lizard was crazy good live too, as is Tool. Havent seen them since 97 or so though. Seeing Bowie and NIN together on stage was fucking amazing though. The opening band was called Prick. They were on Reznors Nothing label. Havent heard anything from them since around 2000. Really cool band though if ya ever get a chance to listen.

How great was Ween back in the day? I love that band.

They were awesome. I went to school with "deans" sister. they used to play in new hope all the time when I was in high school like 94 to 96.

Mike...I have heard of prick but never really listened to them. NIN with Manson was insane. It was 94 I beleive before anyone knew who manson was....

Best show by far was Primus with Helmet opening.

I remember seeing Pavement a million years ago at a music festival in Pittsburgh. I was young, maybe 14 or so. They were great. Been listining ever since.

Hey Mike - checking a local concert website out for good shows, and found out Pavement's coming to Philly on Friday September 17; Mann Music center.
