Yeah man... They were so chill, weren't intimidated by us at all. (Usually people get intimidated walking up to 40 or more cars lined up in rows in a dark parking lot... lol)

 

Quite possibly. I just remember aaron went over to talk to them and I was like who are they, somebody told me and I was like ok. Looked them up later and was like oooohhhhh!

 

definitely Nirvana and Metallica

 

M-Flo

 

I still have my Lollapalooza shirt that has Nirvana on it, they were supposed to headline. I had a chance before that to see them but could not make it.

Saw Sublime twice, had no idea who they were at that time and they were all really ****ed up, but the shows were awesome.

Radiohead I've seen many times and will always seen them, awesome shows.

The biggest for me would be Tom Waits, and in a small venue.

Others-

David Bowie
Velvet Underground
Beatles (duh)
Sex Pistols
Clash
Pixies

 

I'd like to see swervedriver again. If you ever played road rash, you've heard swervedriver.

 

My bloody Valentine.

 

Dude, I worked a couple of their shows. I'm pretty sure I got hearing damage even with plugs in. Loudest concert I have ever been to. The bass was literally vibrating the catwalks. I got so high and I wasn't even smoking. They had to set up barricades out into the audience so the pits wouldn't get too big... didn't matter. Two huge pits counter rotating. Can't even describe how epic it was.

 

I love those pits. Stuff like that doesn't happen much anymore. I was at a deftones show that was like that. I was in the front row and I'm not even kidding... 4 plus people deep and probably 40 or so wide... all fell on top of each other. I was like... F this. I worked my way toward the back and walked right into one of the pits where 2 huge guys were dominating the pit. I had no choice. Push. elbow. little picking up change and a back kick right to the sternum. Cleared that isht in a second and everyone was back to circle fun as it should be.


Makes me think of a band I wish I could see again... Sick of It All...


Speaking of epic bass. I was watching red hot when they played with Stone Temple Pilots and the bass from flea was so gnarly it shook my beer straight on to the ground. I was in a box. Server brought me a fresh one. WOOT!

 

Dude... Bowie is playing the mountain winery in a month.



sex pistols hell yeah. Clash hell yeah. Pixies hell yeah. Beattles... meh.

 

I'm trying to put a list together of who I've seen and it's kinda ridiculous.

 

You wouldn't know most of mine. I was pretty big in to the christian music industry for a lot of years. Friends with sound guys and promoters. Even promoted a little myself. Record label work. Music buyer. Etc. I've literally seen HUNDREDS of those bands.

Biggest names off the top of my head that most folks might know...
Testament (one of the best drummers ever)
MXPX
5 Iron Frenzy
Petra
3rd Day
Jars of Clay
Underoath
No Innocent Victim
Dogwood
Comeback Kid who I plan to see next week... whut whut
Project 86
P.O.D.
Living Sacrifice
Six Pence
My homies the Fighting Jacks. Miss those guys.
Craigs Brother
As I Lay Dying

I could go on forever. LOL.

I haven't seen all that many of the big time "mainstream" bands. That list is pretty small. I have seen Michael Jackson, Charlie Daniels band, Gloria Gainer, Etc. LOL!

 

Band I need to see live....

August Burns Red.
