    Started college in the fall of 1987, so I was introduced to R.E.M., The Cure, Depeche Mode, U2, Pixies, etc and that pushed metal aside for me. Another transformational moment. 😍

    Ah yes the brooding music scene, lol!  They all had good songs but weren't angry enough for me at my young age!  in 87 i was in middleschool.  REM had a cool song Stand around that time. The Cure were in the teen 80's movies, U2 were becoming Gods and Pixies weren't on my radar for another 2 years.

    Motley Crue, Minor Threat, Metallica, Misfits, Megadeth, Meatmen and Maiden.  It was all about the M bands and alliteration, lol.

    I know most of those songs.
    Don't know.6, 11, 18

    Wow.
    Never saw maiden and they are probably my favorite band. Shame on me.
    Like everyone else says.  Go See Them!!!

    Oh and the reason you don't know those 3 is you stopped buying their albums after Somewhere in Time.  WTH did you transition listening to in the late 80's that you didn't buy 7th son?  Was it all GnR by then and Poison?
    Probably polluted by primus and started entering the short-lived industrial era. Ministry, kmfdm, skinny puppy. Always Slayer. And yes Maiden kind of became a little too 'mainstream' or maybe just needed something different. Odd to reminisce about my personal musical trends.
    Never too late to explore the other stuff. So much music, so much time.

    Ohh sees thanks to you tempo!

    Sadly or not I've gotten out of the live music scene. Such a part of the definition of who I was. 
    Enough about me. 

    Let's KILL!

    Ahhh Ministry, the other M.  Psalm 69 was a great album. Late 89/90 I got a hold of the Limelights Techno compilation.  Well, that spurred my tastes a little!

    Oh Sees are touring in the fall!  Make sure you grab your tix now!!!

    I've been making up for being dumb and not seeing them all of these years. My cousin was actually at the Live After Death show in Long Beach, and I should have been there. In the past 5 or so years, I've seen them 3 times. Will definitely see this tour if it comes near me.
    1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th
    1992- Lollapalooza, Irvine, California
    Nothing since then. I suck.
    2016- Fenway Park, Boston - Both glorious nights
    2022- Oakland Night 2
    2024 Sacramento, CA

    You talk about an all-time concert! Whoooooo!

    Remember door posters? I had the Live After Death one from that tour.  I looked at it every day.

    My cousin has always been a metalhead, whereas I was more of a punk rocker in my early years.
