You had a point, though, cigarlady. I like melodic metal with singing and that's not much of a real thing.
I'm somewhat picky and have trouble with many musical 'categorizations'.
Try Mudvayne, Killswitch Engage, Stabbing Westward or Helmet |

A few months before he made the choice to leave this earth. Such a shame. Soundgarden is actually starting to be alright with me now. I saw them at Rock on the Range festival 4 or 5 years back. They had to grow on me. Took a while for me to get used to their style. And you are right, they are close to melodic metal. |

Highlight 2 - only time I almost chit myself at a concert (cops in riot gear are kinda scary in real life) My very first concert was WASP with Black Sabbath opening... I was about 13. It was the I F. U. K. like a Beast tour. Eye opening to say the least fer a little feller(ummmhmmm). First time I saw a girl walking around in nothing but a Tee shirt. Watched her hop over a small wall to get to the floor level and she..... lets say winked at me:-) Naked chick, Wild Turkey and some nice smoke made for an awesome first concert. And yes I was doing all that at 13... Me and my brother saw so many shows and ball games once we realized that once everyone was inside the guys at the gate could be bribed with a $20 and the words you're on your own kid followed us in. We got to see every sold out Eagles vs Dallas game in the 80's this way.... Philly HATES Dallas. God Damned Herschel Walker..... I HATED that guy mostly because he didn't play for us. |

My first (non parental accompaniment) was Meatloaf with Cheap Trick opening. What can I say? The female form is a powerful persuader. Ended up being a great show though.
The good old days when not only bribes, but tickets themselves were cheap. I think it was $25 for the aforementioned Ozzfest, for 10+ hrs of most of the hardest hitting bands of that time. Nowadays you can't get a concert shirt for that price. Maybe could buy you a beer for it. A second would be pushing it |

Queen is coming through with what's his name singing... $400 for nose bleeds. Without the Greatest Frontman of all time singing I thought.... Maybe $50 -$60 for decent tix. I was stunned. Btw do people still sleep out for tickets? Had a ton of fun sleeping out for Springsteen, Bowie, Amnesty International, etc etc tix. Never spent more than $25 for GOOD seats. Most concerts were a flat $20. Not front row but damned close.  |

I don't think the camping out happens anymore. Mostly people buying online before the brokers snatch them up and resell marked up from the already high face value. I wouldn't even know where to buy in person anymore. In my experience the past few years, you'll be hard pressed to get into a big name show for anything less than $100. I'm still getting chit from the wife for not grabbing Petty tickets for Wrigley Field at $300/per (to be fair, I was late in the game on that one, but still betting they were high during initial sale). I told her no way. Then he up and died, and I will be reminded of this for the remainder of my days.  |

Never thought of it in those terms... I guess kids today just don't get to see concerts like we used to. Jeez, I saw everybody and then some without even trying that hard. My son spent a weekend in NYC to see someone callled Logic. Tickets cost more than his hotel in Mid-town Manhattan for the weekend. That's just not right.  |

Oh no... I go to.concerts every month. I love music. It is my religion. But I guess the difference is Im not a kid and I have passive / residual income that pays for stuff like concerts and cigars wine and shoes... And all the fetish bull... Kids these days have to save for weeks to afford these shows or get it from mom and dad. I just went to Dave Matthews band last month in Pensacola.. Floor tickets for Row 5 were $680 for me. |
