I have gotten to wear my tastes have started to lighten up over the years. I used to be like Geng and like mostly hard stuff, even metal, but now bands like Train and Sublime are more up my alley.
Yeah. Be careful if you listen to anything Genghis posts.
He's not going to scare me. My first concert was Ozzy with Def Leppard opening. I knew he had good taste when I saw the Iron Maiden avatar.
My first band (I'm a drummer) was a metal band called Hung Jury.
Nice!![]()
My first concert was Iron Maiden with Ace Frehley opening. I've seen Maiden 13 times now. Still as good as it gets.
I've only seen Ozzy at Ozzfest and I believe it was with Sabbath. I'd have loved to have seen Ozzy back when he was still coherent. Or Sabbath in their prime for that matter.

I was supposed to see Iron Maiden in the early 90's but I was on standby to deploy for Desert Storm and missed it. One thing that always impressed me with Maiden was that Bruce rarely "cheated" the high notes. Night after night, show after show he still managed to sound like the album versions of the songs.
The best concert I ever saw was Clash of the Titans in '91. Alice in Chains, Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax in one show. My ears and body took a good four days to recover from the noise and mosh pit. We listed to DRI all the way from Cherry Point to Fayetteville for the show. Damn good times!
Another military dude. We have quite a few here.
I would have given my left nut to see those two. Separate or together. Two of my favorite bands ever.
Alice in Chains was without a doubt my favorite band. The world misses Staley.
All songs should be remade as duets with Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.
That's baby making music right there.
They should remake "Timber" next.
I can't argue that, although the Kenny Rogers/Sheena Easton combo on "We've Got Tonight" was pretty awesome as well. And nothing will top the combination of Conway Twitty/Loretta Lynn as far as I'm concerned.
