.... and he kicked major ass!! Last time I mentioned BHTM, I was roundly lambasted. Whatever. You don't know what you're missing if you haven't seen this guy shred on the guitar. Pay no attention to his studio releases. "Jesus Just Left Chicago" was a totally unexpected highlight.

    I saw them a long time ago, no idea for what reason other than the ratio of females to males at their concerts seemed to be about 4 to 1. but it was the most atrocious and boring show I've ever attempted to watch in my entire life (and I've seen probably 100 bands play). I ended up leaving the show before it was over.

    then again, it probably didn't help that I have no clue as to any songs that they do or are known for. it just happened at a time when I went to a lot of shows just to be going. but imo, it was awful.

    but if you're a fan, you're a fan, and I have no problem whatsoever with that.

    Wow! You probably couldn't be drug back with a bulldozer....BUT....I'm telling you, Todd Park is one of the most amazing guitarists I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot :p. Thanks for respecting my right to like who I like. I told my wife, this would be an easier band to follow than PJ - no ticket frenzy even in small venues (House of Blues).

    Yeah i've seen them twice once in 95 or 96 then again here recently and both times they were great.

    Some really good guitar playing coupled with really good songs.

    I saw a DVD with them too so it seems like they are always on fire live.

  • They are my second favorite band. I'm not happy that I can't make it to a show this your. New album is fantasitc, just like the rest. Extremely underrated.

    I won't rip ya. I like those guys. BHTM played a freebie under the St. Louis Arch a couple summers ago. It was a really good show. Unfortunately I missed them in the 'Lou earlier this year. Hopefully they'll be back this summer.
