Hi there!

One the best shows I ever saw was Gwar circa like 88 or 89, mostly because we had no idea what it was gonna be!

If a show was billed as all ages we would go because it was something to do. All the sudden there were vikings on stage and blood flying everywhere
Gwar is absolutely a blast to see live. Cheers

During the late 80s and early 90s I went to concerts the way some people go to church. In the words of Ozzy Osbourne, "rock and roll was my religion and my law."

My first concert was Judas Priest and Dokken, June of '86. I was sixteen years old.

Then came AC/DC, L.A. Guns, Whitesnake, Great White, Metallica, and on and on.

The last show I saw pre-pandemic was The Cult in December of '19. That was my first concert in a couple of years.

I'm going to see Queensryche here in New Jersey next week. Rawk!

Hope the Queensryche gig is a good one. I saw them a couple of times many years ago with Geoff Tate singing. I haven't heard their new singer, but hopefully he is just as good.

I've seen Queensryche twice in the past w/Geoff (1995 and 2000) but have never seen 'em with the new singer. My friend that I'm going with has seen them with Todd a few times and sez he kills it, so I'm looking forward to it.

Yup, they opened for AC/DC when I saw them in 1988. Their first album had just come out. I had no idea who they were going in, but I bought that album a few days later. Haha

Joan played the Birch Hill Nightclub in NJ at least two or three times a year during the 90s, she always killed it.

The last time I saw her (circa 1995 or '96) she was appearing in a stage version of "Rocky Horror Show" off Broadway (I forget if she was playing Magenta or Columbia) and she'd shaved her head for the part. I guess word hadn't gotten around yet about her "new look," cuz when she came out with the chrome dome you could hear this collective "GASP! WTF?" from the crowd :D

the best hip hop show I ever saw was Gang Starr. Rap mostly stinks live, just guys rapping over a track. Gang Starr had their entire crew with them and DJ premier did all the cutting and scratching live.


would be remiss if I didn't mention Harry p***y. I saw them twice and each show was total chaos. The two guitars were out of tune and missing strings and the drummer was a hot chick who screamed into a headset as she played. They were somewhere between suburban thrash and Sonic Youth. you see so many bands just going through their set trying to be the next thing. They should take a few lessons from those guys

Just remembered The Fabulous Thunderbirds. Forgettable...

More coming back to me. Brave Combo, a punk polka band. Tom Waits. And Townes van Zandt, who was actually astounding and one I shouldn't have forgotten.

I also saw Willie Nelson, John Mellancamp and Bob Dylan on a triple bill. Nelson was old and sleepwalking through his act. Dylan played with his back to the audience and did unrecognizable renditions of his hits. Mellencamp, unexpectedly, was great.

The last concert I was at was at an arts festival near Cape Town: the crowd got rowdy and started pelting the performers with beer cans  Buggedout Buggedout

Just remembered another one: saw the shell of the Beach Boys in the early 90s when they were touring state fairs. Not good.
