At 102:40 I found something to replace saying "Roadhouse" randomly.

"Tales From The Hardside" :lol: :LOL:
 
Sepultura and Fear Factory came to mind while reading the Crowbar post. Nice :rock:
 
Im glad I got to experience these bands in my prime (20's) and in theirs. Saw Pantera at the Channel in Boston, touring for Vulgar I think. Powerful doesn't begin to describe it. A lot of younger metal fans now, have no idea how out of style it was to be truly metal and say you were metal in the early-mid 90's. Guys I tried to play metal with would throw around the word "heavy" but if you said metal you were now supposedly out of touch. Definitely a very frustrating time. Here I am in a band, Drop C, 5150, chugging and muting my brains out and we couldn't call it metal. It sounds stupid but it was that way. Pantera, Sepultura, Machinehead, Prong, emerging Swedish bands etc, really helped me get through those years. Don't get me wrong, I did like a lot of the music that was happening around then but I never stopped being a total metalhead. I think that's why I got into Eastcoast hardcore around then too. Anything to keep a metal vibe going.

well said my friend.....i found myself in the same situation, in the same time period....what made it even weirder was, if i got my foot in the door and a band got past the fact that i was a cop, then i had to reveal my musical tastes....what a paradox!

I was into it all and I didn't care. I never understood the hate for whatever bands a guy was into.

Any love for Quicksand, Helmet, Orange 9mm?

Being in a band with a cop has it's advantages :yes:
 
I remember seeing Orange 9mm and Fu Manchu on the same bill here in Seattle in '96. I never got to see Quicksand though even though I'm a huge fan of Slip. Got to see Helmet tour on Meantime and hands down one of the best shows I've ever seen was Henry Rollins Band touring End Of Silence. I think that one was at Axis on Landsdowne St in Boston.

One of the trippiest but fun gigs I've seen in Seattle was Napalm Death, At the Gates and one other I can't remember at a Chinese restaurant. It had so many name changes I can't remember what it was called. I just know it was on 85th near 15th, north of Ballard.
 
Slip is a great album. Seen them a few times. Seen Orange 9mm and Helmet too.
 
One my favorite concerts 1994 Far beyond driven tour at the spectrum in Philly Pantera, Sepultura & Prong :rock: :rock:
It was on Dimebags birthday can't forget the giant pot leaf they brought out with candles on it :lol: :LOL:
The Eagles had a preseason game going on at the time, the floor got so nuts the tv crews even came over and filmed some footage to show on t.v.
 
Pantera on that 94 Far Beyond Driven tour was something special, easily in the top 3 shows i've ever seen

I saw that tour in 94 too, both Pantera and Sepultura together. Great mosh pit, great sound. One of my most memorable concerts.
I remembered the mosh was extra rough, one tiny girl was crowd surfing and they dropped her, she landed head first onto the ground. I was thinking "Oh, fuck, hope she's not hurt", right then she popped right back up and ran straight into the pit again :doh:
