The 69 Eyes
Alice Cooper (ha, "Schools Out")
Alkaline Trio
Bad Company

Bobby Darin (listen to "If I Were A Carpenter". And think folk)
Breaking Benjamin
The Brothers Four (folk)
Buffalo Springfield

So its funny that I know a large portion of the hair bands [per se], haha. Gotta love 'em, really. Yeah I was going to include some in my lists, but figured 1) you'd know who they are and 2) they might be too well known anyways. So its weird because about 3 days ago I was gonna check out Hanoi Rocks so I definitely will have to now. Its weird... not having to type out a whole list of bands... actually being able to TYPE. Ha... how new and exciting... Laughing

I like this new guy.

Yeah, I mentioned Primus. Kick ass bass.

I'm out, almost.

Hey, Fallen, the drummer just wised up. He's forgetting the phone. We have half the sum for the set already.

Rollins Band
Dinosaur Jr.

That's almost it for me. I do have more, but they're all local and without demos and CDs to pick up. No sites or audio samples either. As far as I know, Inside Out is the only one.

I like Michelle already. Nice choice in music. Very nice.

Indeed. That's a fraction of my list, but after that it gets into one-album, barely sold, never gonna find a copy groups.

And definitely check out Hanoi! Michael Monroe is the original glam king. Cool

[QUOTE] I like Michelle already. Nice choice in music. Very nice.

That kinda makes me feel all warm and tingly inside ^_^

Ha, but yeah, thanx on that comment. You should like me Wink

ha, just kidding... sorta, ha. Smile

But seriously, you figure, if I'm gonna use the term "Music whore", I might as well live up to it. Most people who know me know how disgustingly infatuated with music I am, hah. And many agree that I would be perfect for a record store... except my mom, but thats because shes crazed... theres just no helping her now...

But I definitely remembered some people I should have put on here... its a shame a forgot EXACTLY the ones I already forgot...

So I've been working on my guitar skills for a while now, but I really wish I knew someone who played. Like either 1) NO ONE PLAYS or 2) the ones that I know who do ARE ASSHOLES. So really thats just not tempting for me. And it would be really awesome to start a band... 'god' knows music is my life... but its kinda odd trying to mix someone who loves The Doors, Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aerosmith, Iron Maiden, and then like Guster and classical music too, and I mean hell I love Sinatra and Crosby and Louis Armstrong too, and then a bassist who loves Tsunami Bomb and Aerosmith too, but ha thats still a weee bit difficult... who knows what could happen though...

Plus we'd need a drummer... damn.

ragingflea002 · Posted: Wed Jun 30, 2004 9:21 pm Post subject:

Well, as a sorta mini bio, I'm the guitarist/vocalist for a band called Inside Out. The links are in my sig to the site and forums. We have our own drummer issues. You might have caught that earlier in. I have a Squier Strat I got dirt cheap from Musicians Friend. $129.00. Can't beat that.

Our bassist is inspired by Primus' and Flea of RHCP. I was inspired by Tom Morello and Kurt Cobain. Jimi Hendrix played some influence there, too. But I heard Morello and Cobain first.

I live in Charleston, S.C. Nice bars and grills to perform at. We probably will start off at a bar not too far from our houses called the Wolf Track Inn. They get some good acts, though.

Oh, yeah. Greenwheel is good, and so is Black Lab. Again, both are liked for guitar.

Sublime
Stone Sour

Two others. You might know Stone Sour.

Nonpoint

Kind of like Rage Against the Machine here. Awesome guitar.

Ahh I LOVE Jimi. Honestly. I have his "Are You Experienced?" Album. And it was my very first album. I praise him, ha. Actually I refer to him as "god" quite often. Pisses off a lot of bible bangers ya know. Razz

Yeah... that prob. is mean... but... it happens?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yup, I know Sublime and Stone Sour. They're good. Sublimes not really my style, but they've got some good stuff. Stone Sour has good stuff too, but I dont have any of it. I just havent heard of Nonpoint, but I'll see if I can find them.

Fallen, what you said about kids who say they like punk rock, I do the SAME EXACT THING I ALWAYS ask if the like the Ramones. lol They never know who they are Rolling eyes

Yes, Michelle is pretty cool and I happen to be a fanatic of some of the bands that you stated EX: Jethro Tull, The Moody Blues,Bad Company,and Blue Oyster Cult theres more but I think you get the picture ^_^

Has anyone heard the song "Satanica Romantica" by Incubus, Sucubus? It's really good. I know a million people have heard of them but Black Sabbath and System of a Down are so unique and they rock sooo much. Everyone needs to listen to them. Oh and Jimmi rocks!

Oh and I've been playing the guitar for a little bit more than a year now if anyone cares. ^_^

You know how great it is to turn up your music loud enough so that your Bible toting neighbors hear the truly Christain elements of:

Some free Rage Against the Machine lyrics:

Lights out
Guerrilla Radio
Turn that s**t up

or

Like the troubles in Appalacia
Like the priests that f**k you as they whisper holy things

Then, a little Nirvana:

We can have some more
Nature is a whore
Who is on a prude
Tender age in bloom

and

She should have
Been a son
She should have
Been a son

It makes them mad when you say, "That was "Been A Son", a song especially for YOU" and point to them.

We have a band called Matter here which is supposed to be cool.

Or they go "oh yeah, man, they're awesome!" Really? Cool, what's your favorite album? "Uhhhh...I dunno, dude. They're all good." Well name one you really like. "Uhhhh, jeez I can't pick." Uh huh.

More along the lines of "I heard of the Sex Pistols once, and I don't really like them, but I'll still say I do because I heard they're really punk!" . . . .

ahh the sex pistols... top-notch punk indeed (for those who listen to them)

and yes michelle, you have good taste in music. breaking benjamin, unwritten law, the riddlin kids, the cure, the shins, the verve, sleater-kinney, letters to cleo, dimmu borgir... you have made me happy on this day.

o and dude calling harvey danger a one-hit wonder is really putting them down. they are one of the most amazing bands i have ever had the pleasure of hearing. his lyrics alone are enough to take your breath away... buy [i]where have all the merrymakers gone?[/i] and you'll see what i'm talking about. i simply can't tire of them- they are so incredible. and reel big fish should make you want to prance around (yaaay! skanking!). they're one of the best ska bands around (that i know of, anyway), and they're pleasantly infectious, if i do say so myself. their shows are very fun...

gah i wish i could be around here more often... i'm missing all these great discussions... dammit!

One hit wonder isn't an insult. Twisted Sister, Grateful Dead, Hendrix... all one hit wonders.

O_o You consider Greatful Dead and Jimmi Hendrix One-Hit-Wonders? I disagree. Jimmi Hendrix had so many popular songs EX: Red House, All Along the Watch Tower,Foxy Lady,and Voodoo Chile to name a few. Greatful Dead had quite a few that were popular as well. Although I can't think of any at the moment because I am extremely tired and I'm going to sleep soon. But tomorrow I shall! ^_^

More punk bands..Sleater Kinney, Dropkick Murphys, Less Than Jake, NOFX, Rancid, The Clash, The Cure, The Flaming Lips...

I like The Pogues, if anyone hasn't mentioned them...They're an Irish punk band. It's kind of...*shrugs*...I'm at a loss for adjetives, but yeah, I think they're cool.

Ok, you don't have to name punk rock bands.

Hendrix was a one hit wonder, by the way. He was that good. That's how he made it. One person saw him on stage and saw him do his tricks(playing with his teeth, behind his head, etc) and sent him to London where they loved him and put himon the radio instantly. Trust me, he was a one hit wonder. It isn't an insult either. If people like you so damn much that you're instantly a hit, you must be doing something right.

They only had one hit on the charts, pookie. Look it up. :huh: A popular song is not automatically a hit.

And [b]one hit wonder is not an insult.[/b] It's a fact. A state of being. Only one song made it onto the charts. End.

Few people know the name of Jimi's last band before he overdoesed(accidentally), so I can name it.

Gypsy Sun and Rainbows(he wanted it to be called Band of Gypsys, as well.)

Hell, if my band could be a one hit wonder, I'd be freaking happy because it would mean that I'm getting paid!
