Engage Boast Mode: I went to see the 47th live band this year at lunchtime today... tee hee. But they were only an amateur band not bad but two Bon Jovi tracks in one set is three too much for me. My kids went to that Muse megashow at the new Wembley Stadium last night.... 'Who needs drugs when you've got Muse?' was my son's quote. It was his tenth time since I took him in 01 for a birthday present.
The last 'proper' rock band we saw was The Wildhearts - my fourth time. Amazing.
well......you guys suck.......i'm not playing here anymore
They are not all 'amateur' bands... but you are right it is quality not quantity. But my personal taste would mean I would not bother with many of your bands... I like heavy rock (I have even seen Clutch so I am in Les' good books) but modern metal leaves me cold. For ex my mate asked me to go see Dragonforce but one look at them on YT and I was laughing my head off. If the guy up front can't or won't sing properly then I am out of here.
