Let's talk about music

[skullman80]

so whose left Marky and CJ?

From the original ramones? I don't think anyone is left now.

[FreeCandy44]

Not so much original as who is left that carried the Ramones name?

[Gaucho]

38 years after its release, the Ramones eponymous debut was certified gold in the USA. Congratulations to whoever is left of them.

Tommy Ramone was the last surviving original member. He died yesterday at age 65. RIP

I missed that. RIP. Hard to believe they're all gone.

'Tallica fans.....


Woodstock 94 or 99?

[skullman80]

Performance wise?

I remember 94 being better, but haven't listened to either in a while. I just took a quick look at the setlists, and both are pretty damn good on paper.

[FreeCandy44]

I think 94 wins because of the Hetfield Mullet. That and Breadfan....

[skullman80]

99 has Bleeding Me( hardly ever gets played live), which I think is one of the best Metallica songs of any of their albums including the first 4. Such an underrated song, but so damn good.

[FreeCandy44]

They played Bleeding Me @ StarLake 1998. So good...I just remember people booing the acoustic set.

Woodstock 94 or 99?

I was at 99. So that gets my vote.

[PensFanInDC]

99 has Bleeding Me( hardly ever gets played live), which I think is one of the best Metallica songs of any of their albums including the first 4. Such an underrated song, but so damn good.

It's one of my favorites to play. Such amazing riffs in that song. Load and Reload are full of some of the most powerful riffs they ever wrote.

[PensFanInDC]

I could talk about MetallicA all day. Got their logo tattooed on my right arm. That has gotten me 2 drum sticks handed to me by Lars at the last 2 shows I went to.

Best show: 12/31/99 in Detroit. Ted Nugent rode out on a live buffalo.

Honorable mention: Godsmack/MetallicA in 2007 (?). No chappy opening bands. Just 2 awesome live acts.

[Kraftster]

Anyone a fan of Caspian? I got invited to attend their show tomorrow in Pittsburgh.

[canaan]

I wasn't expecting a posted devoted to the affinity of the hydrological sciences in the music thread, but I friggin love the Caspian. Top 11 seas for me...i know that seems high, but dat reef

[PensFanInDC]

Blues Traveller is a much better band than I ever thought. They come up a lot of a Pandora station my wife made.

[FreeCandy44]

They are in town tonight at Stage AE. John Popper is kind of nutty.

[PensFanInDC]

He's a big gun nut I know that

[columbia]

Meh. So is Ted Nugent.

I'm amused by people, who are bothered by his stances on certain issues.
You hadn't figured out that he was a nutcase twenty (or 40) years ago?

Who cares.

[PensFanInDC]

I really don't care about anyone's stance on guns (as far as this conversation is concerned). I was just stating a fact that followed up FC44s post. My wife was telling me about how he was pulled over in an RV (or something) and there were all these hidden compartments with guns in them.

I'd say top 5 best live rock and roll songs of all time. Freebird is an obvious #1.

[columbia]

It's so good.

[Kraftster]

Caspian was pretty impressive. I don't have much of a baseline for post rock live shows, though.

[columbia]

Assuming they still exist, go see Tortoise.
