I kinda gave up the "new" Seps in the late 90s. They were pretty much off my radar completely. They were direct support for Testament in 2017 and of course I wanted to check them out and I was stunned at how good they are. I went back in and dug into some of the newer albums on Spotify and...

Dude, Steve is from Milwaukee. Closer to Chicago than Rockford.

did they have any merch unique to that SPECIFIC show/date a la Maiden? im curious if theyll have any for the final 2 msg shows and i assume youve never seen rammstein given your 'production' comments at #9, bc they make kiss look like a bunch of tired old men with sparklers Yeah, I know Rammstein i...

Indy two nights before was final and 26th show. I saw 4 shows on the "Farewell Tour" and 2 others on this one, but this definitely felt like it was goodbye. Tonight in Baltimore is basically the last regular show as I don't believe there are openers or sound check shows at MSG. FWIW, I bou...

Serious question : why do you Americans drive such insane distances by car? I see it all the time on show reviews, people driving for eight or twelve hours both ways to go to a show. How much would it be to just fly? Driving it seems insane. Depends on how many are going. If it's just my wife and I...

Streaming vs. Cable all depends on what you want/need, really. The snag with cord-cutting/going full-on streaming is you still need fast internet to run it all, and depending how you stream, by the time you subscribe to all the apps/channels you want, you're paying about the same as a normal cable ...

You should get You Tube TV. That’s what I have as well as Paramout +, Prime Video, HBO Max, Peacock, Netflix have them all and ESPN Plus. Don’t miss anything. On YouTube TV, you can watch MTV classic and watch metal mayhem so you can see all the videos. I just can't get behind the cable/satellite a...

Did you not stream before getting a Roku? I run my antenna into my Roku for my "regular tv" sort of stuff (news, PBS, NFL, late night shows, etc) and pretty much just stream the rest. Between Netflix and Max alone there is more than I could ever watch. Let alone niche services like Shudder...

Even with the awesomeness of Spotify, I can't fathom not having SiriusXM in the car. I

The Keyboard dude in Night Ranger is made to look just Allan Fitzgerald. Which is odd because no one actually knows who the fuck Allan Fitgerald is.

I keep hearing there is another "Stadium Tour" this summer? I'm guessing one of these bands is going out with Journey? I see Green Day and Foo Fighters are already booked, and have sold out many, of the MLB stadiums, so the 80s package better get with it.

UIC is now the D Arena. A: United Center, B: Allstate Arena, C: Wintrust Arena, D: UIC. What about Now Arena out in Hoffman Estates? I forgot about that one. That would be tied with UIC. Interesting. Based on how close it was built to where Poplar Creek was, I thought they would turn that arena in ...

Not much if at all. $100 per year on FFL, if you count that. We buy lottery tickets when it gets huge. In Vegas I'll go to the Sports Book and bet on my hometown teams just for fun. With legalized gambling in Ohio, I'll also bet on any game I'm going to in person but nothing more than $5 or so. It m...

It's insane to me that one of the most tedious, boring metal bands of all time can do the numbers they do at the ages they're at, but I've got to give them credit. Good on 'em. Long may they continue. Rod Smallwood is a genius. His strategy has been brilliant. Greatest Hits style tours + themed tou...

I'm gonna take my chances and play the long game on this one. Last time I had the ultimate Maiden experience being dead center on the barrier, but that was more $$$ and a lot of effort. Increasingly less interested in doing that, plus I'm just not interested in giving Ticketmaster my money a year i...

They’re playing the B Arena in Chicago. Which is strange, because they have sold the A arena quite well on both of their shows there. No shame in playing the Allstate Arena. It can hold 18,000+ and was the main arena in Chicago before the United Center came along at the height of Michael Jordan man...

I mean yeah it’s the same song so it’s going to be similar, but there’s no point where you hear a bit and go “yeah that’s it” like for instance watching Peter Jackson’s Get Back and when they play THE take of certain songs you just know it’s the one. Basic tracks for Alive3 were recorded at soundch...

I've seen them headline a bunch. A mix of Corn Dog Circuit shows - which were pretty much all free, and then some theater and casino type gigs. Generally, if they open for someone, it's part of package that puts them in the sheds or NHL arenas.

I was at this show! Had such a blast.. i was lower bowl all the way straight back,always wished i could see myself when the camera's panned the crowd.. It was fun time to follow the band. None of the shows I went to on that tour were anywhere close to full but the crowds and the band were in high s...

Probably watched the cut version of this hundreds of times after this was release. Have not watched the uncut version. Eric Singer was probably the first drummer I’ve ever seen on a drum cam in the modern era. He’s absolutely MASHING here, huge drummer sound. Without singer at this juncture, this b...

So, what happened here, did someone leak this out from the production side or something? It was out within a few weeks/months of being recorded. Pretty much all of The Palace stuff was. The only thing I remember being locked down tight, and still is, is Iron Maiden in 1990. The Anthrax performance ...

When that lineup was on, they were on. Check out the Saginaw, MI show that was broadcast on FM radio.

This album should've been a classic. This was the follow up tour to WTMN (there was no Goes to Hell tour) and Alice had one of his best musical lineups but instead we got a really, really drunk Alice and a band just going through the motions. Alice was so boozed up that the mob actually had to send ...

Cannibal Corpse with Mayhem, Gorguts and Blood Incantation at The Fillmore. The line snaked the full length of the building 3.5 times. I watched the whole opening 30 minute set while only moving about a half wall length before bailing out. Went back after Mayhem… the line was still 1.5 wall lengths...

They started 0-2 last year. And this year. Yep. That’s what happens when the couch doesn’t let a starter play a single snap in preseason. Not just Burrow, any starters. They're not going to start 0-2 only to win the division two consecutive years. No. First off, it was two huge division losses. Sec...

I’m a fairly casual fan and honestly I didn’t enjoy it the one time I saw them (LA Forum with X opening). This was 1998 but ever since they’ve still always kinda struck me as more diehard fan oriented. No disrespect to them either, just wasn’t my thing beyond the 15-20 songs of theirs that I truly ...
