Bands you got into way too late

Oasis. Hated hated hated them when they came out. But I was streaming some videos a few years back and YouTube autoplayed Don’t Look Back in Anger at River Plate live.

The WHOLE f’n crowd sang the whole song. I’m sure that was a crazy experience. I like a few songs now because of seeing that.

Also, Weezer.

Triumph - folks that gush over Kiss - Alive II or Priest - Unleashed in the East should really give Triumph Live at the US Festival a listen; huge sound, great performance.

Styx - I knew a few hits for years, but once I heard Miss America on the radio a few years ago, I did a deep dive.

Demon - the NWoBHM band. Their song "Night of the Demon" just has such awesome vocals. I've been a big NWoBHM fan since my teenage years, but somehow I missed this one until decades later.

King Diamond (solo) - Even though I've been playing along with Melissa and DBTO since I was 16 or so, it took a good 15 years before I 'discovered' Abigail, Fatal Portrait, etc. Saw him live this June (and in 2016 on GMM in Belgium). Both top notch shows and sound.
