i saw EBTG in a teeny tiny club, with little candlelit tables, and we were right in front about 10 years ago. it was *fantastic*. i'd love to see - Andie Aug 4, 13:11 4
- rub it in, jerk -- nm - chuckles Aug 4, 13:14
- EBTG? -- nm - amoxy Aug 4, 13:13 2
  - I am pleased you blocked pixie. -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 13:15
  - Everything But The Girl. -- nm - Andie Aug 4, 13:14
NIN - Mel Profit Aug 4, 13:07 12
- You're going to be kicking yourself for a while about that aren't you? heh. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:12 9
  - I can't stand it. - Mel Profit Aug 4, 13:26
  - Mel missed the last tour? Yikes. - con_carne Aug 4, 13:16 7
    - specifically, the shows in NYC at Webster Hall where he played all of Downward Spiral. - Mel Profit Aug 4, 13:25
    - He's specifically talking about the last few where he played The Fragile in it's entirety. - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:20 2
      - wait...he played the Fragile in it's entirety? - Mel Profit Aug 4, 13:23 1
        
        Oh, maybe it was Downward Spiral. My bad. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:29
    - It was good. Maybe not Top 10 good, but it was really good. -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 13:18 2
      - Lights In the Sky was definitely an exceptional concert-going experience. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:23
      - I'll say this: It was a spectacular worthy of any Vegas venue -- nm - con_carne Aug 4, 13:20
- They *just* ended up! -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 13:11 1
  - [- up] -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 13:11
Byrds -- nm - peglegpete Aug 4, 13:07
Rockpile -- nm - amoxy Aug 4, 13:07 1
- I saw them a few times in the 70's. great shows -- nm - peglegpete Aug 4, 13:08
Cibo Matto. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 4, 13:03
Led Zeppelin. And not just play in one place. Like, actually *tour*. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:02 10
- yes please. - Mel Profit Aug 4, 13:08
- never happen. Though I could see a series of special shows. Same with Gilmour and Waters -- nm - Remlik Aug 4, 13:04 8
  - Agree 100%. -- nm - MDH Aug 4, 13:07
  - Wish killer. (I'd go see Pink Floyd again with or without Waters.) -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:05 6
    - Floyd will never happen again with Rick Wright dead. But who knows.... -- nm - Remlik Aug 4, 13:08 3
      - Huh. I had no idea Richard Wright died. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:13 2
        
        They're *all* dead. Some just don't know it yet. -- nm - CovingtonCat Aug 4, 13:15 1
        
        They're just "mostly" dead. Not all the way dead, like the Stones. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 13:16
    - Yeah, I have seen Waters without Floyd twice, so I am due another Gilmore Floyd show. -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 13:06 1
      - Gilmour won't do it. It's to big a thing, he likes them a little smaller these days. -- nm - Remlik Aug 4, 13:08
I'm hard-pressed to think of old bands that haven't already -- nm - con_carne Aug 4, 13:00
NWA - decline Aug 4, 13:00
Lush would need a new drummer. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 4, 13:00 1
- yes, accounting for that -- nm - chuckles Aug 4, 13:00
Beatles, Ramones, Fleetwood Mac -- nm - zork Aug 4, 12:58 1
- Fleetwood mac will happen in the spring from what I read -- nm - Remlik Aug 4, 13:00
Oingo Boingo -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 12:56
