Was looking at the ipod, and made a playlist of all the songs never played yet, and got to wondering where did all the bands go, where did all the hype go. List some of your favorites that never get any love anymore

Live
Faith No More
Stabbing Westward
Midnight Oil
INXS
Dire Straits
Creedence
Red Hot Chilli Peppers

it's better to burn out....than fade away!

    I was in college - but it's all good. Speaking of PJ, the only reason why I went to the show was because I heard the promo for it on the radio and the DJ commented how much Stapp's voice sounded like Eddies :lol:

    Wow, INXS! I just listened to a "Best Of" comp of their's today. Michael Hutchence had the most brilliant voice. "Don't Change" gets me every time. :ugeek:
