Calling all Drunks, Jerks and Bad Boy Fans

Humm, you mean there's another reason to call Boomer "Dick"?

I apologize, that was a lack of character on my part.

Well, c'mon, we all know you have character issues...

You forgot...

I may be wrong, Sky, but I think Tweeter & the Monkey man was their third album together, and after that Roy was pretty sick and barely featured in any other album. In fact, volume four is mostly just Dylan and Petty.

I was referring to vol. 1, which has Tweeter and the Monkey Man as track 9.

Hmmm. First concert? I think it would have been Triumph, early to mid 80s, at the old Cincinnati Gardens. They had a couple songs I liked, like "Say Goodbye" and "Ordinary Man" (buried in my car console, there's still an old, battered but still playable "Allied Forces" cassette) but it was then-girlfriend who was really into them.

As I recall, they sucked live.

I remember them. Sorta like Rush, but without any balls.

Never surrender, right?

I'd say smaller balls. Their b-side stuff was pretty comparable, but where Rush actually did good stuff with progrock lyrics, Triumph did good stuff with with teenybopper lyrics -- the most obvious being their big hit, "Magic Power." (I'm young/I'm wild/I'm free/Got the magic power of the music in me.") I would say that Triumph was to Rush as the Monkees were to the Beatles.

Well, you already brought out the old lady on me!

I'll start a thread to discuss those character issues of yours

Since we are my first concert was Nine Inch Nails.

Never been to a concert. Most of the bands I love are no longer playing.

First concert? KISS.

I was 5 years old with my older brothers.

I thought a bunch of clowns were trying to kill everyone. I was scared.

Although KISS wasn't my first concert, I have seen them live 10 times!! My wife and I went to Vegas and saw them in '03. I also bought the Platinum Package for the Indy show in '04 and got to go backstage before the show. I paid a pretty penny for that one but it was worth it. I got to meet my childhood heros.

And since this thread is no where near what the original topic was, my first concert that I attended was McGuffy Lane at the Ohio Theater in 1980. Man, am I aging myself.
