One of my favourite bands ever.
Any other fans?
Their show in Melbourne in November 2007 is one of the best shows I've been to.
Still got my ticket on the side of my desk as a memento lol

    My kids are really into them and I like what I have heard when they have them on.

    I was SUPPOSED to see them with PJ on my first concert but it was cancelled :(

    Oh and i am reading a Greg Graffin's book right now--pretty good.
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

    I've seen this band a number of times, and the only thing that has changed is a higher hair line of all the guys in the band... that being said they are still an amazing live band! Although every thing after Recipe for Hate, with the exception of Process of Belief is to be ignored

    What about The Gray Race???
    That album totally rocks from start to finish, full of songs that are up their in my favourites list.

    I actually like The Empire Strikes Back a great deal, but aside from that -- and a few moments on New Maps -- you are pretty much right.
    I discovered these guys back in the early 90s and have been a major fan ever since. Definitely among my favorite bands. I would love to see them live but have never had the chance, so I have to frequently put the Live at the Palladium dvd in and crank the surround sound
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    You MUST see them, as I mentioned earlier one of the best shows I've been to, I walked out of Festival Hall on a natural high all night and the next few days. I took my friend along who isn't a fan of a punk and he loved it.
    The show was full of energy, people going crazy in the mosh.
    Live at the Palladium is mental, wish I had 5.1 sound :(

    Great band... I once saw them with the Beastie Boys and Rage Against the Machine in Jersey for the Free Mumia benefit... No one was there to see them and my boy and I were just leaning over the railing on the barricade watching them tear shit up... They're new album kind of blows though, except for that song "Think Before you Die" Ever hear Greg Graffin's solo album? It's weird!

    I was against the railing at their Melbourne show.
    Best was when some kid got past security, used a box of some sort for their equipment to launch himself onto the stage whilst running at full speed, hugged Greg Graffin and sung a few lyrics with him into his mic with his arm around Greg lol, then he done a massive stage dive, just cleared the railing but ended up slamming into a few people. The security guys almost grabbed him before he dived off the stage :mrgreen:
    Great stuff 8-)

    Show was great. Alkaline Trio was a great opener, I enjoyed their set. Bad Religion was amazing. Loved hearing Sorrow, A Walk, Infected, and obvious favorite 21st Century Digital Boy.
