BANDS

[gvngeist]

Since I clearly have nothing important to say...

Here is how it works: Copy this list; leave in the bands you've seen perform live; delete the ones you haven't, and add new ones that you have seen until you reach 23. An asterisk means the previous person had it on their list. Two asterisks means the last two people who did this before you had that

Oh, I almost put Switchblade Symphony! Loved them.

I actually almost opened for them! They were absolutely wasted and also really fantastic. Definitely an eye opener for an impressionable young lad. :)

Oh, how perfect! Yeah, Tina especially was a lot of fun. She worked for an old friend of mine, Ron, in SF, and he'd just moved to LA the first time I saw SS. We made our way down to the front of the stage and when Tina saw Ron she totally lost it and was all "Oh my God my BOSS is here!!" Good times.
