Oso planning to go pro
I thought their music was pretty decent but I wasn't a "fan". For their fans (those I knew anyway) it was about lifestyle as much (or more) as it was about the music.
More about a concert band versus a studio band? I see some hate for U2 but they put on a fantastic live concert (or Super Bowl halftime show). I was at a U2 concert once and they played 22 encores and went till 2AM. Amazing.
I never got the Dead either but figured I was too young for them. I tried to get into Phish when I got to MU upon the encouragement of friends but couldn't get into them either.
Phish, absolutely. I don't get it. They kinda suck. And a sucky song goes on for 2 hours.
The modern day version, Dead and Company, just played two nights at Wrigley (both shows were fantastic) which is why you probably saw people at the airport wearing the shirts
*I also always wanted to see Tom Petty in concert, and really regret that I never did and won't have a chance.
And then the next song sounds exactly the same.
*I also always wanted to see Tom Petty in concert, and really regret that I never did and won't have a chance. Similar to U2, I'm not a huge fan. But I've heard that his concerts were outstanding.
I saw him just months before he died. My first (and only) Petty show. It was a greatest hits show and he did not disappoint. It was a straight forward rock show. Mike Campbell impressed the hell out of me too. I've seen U2 twice. I came away rather unimpressed during the 360 tour - it was more about the spectacle than the music. The Joshua Tree show, however, was awesome. One of the defining albums of my childhood played live along with other great songs I grew up listening to. That show was about the music.
First saw Petty and the Heartbreakers 35+ years ago when the were the opened for Bob Dylan. They did a set, Dylan did a set and they did a set together. Dylan was really good but Petty and his band stole the show. Became a big fan that night.
Godfather II. Incredibly dull movie and worst of the three by a long shot.
Saw Petty a few times. I agree on Campbell. Outstanding guitarist. A lot like Steve Stevens, where you end up watching him more than paying attention to Billy Idol.Saw U2 on the original Joshua Tree tour in Chicago. Maybe the best concert I've seen. Very sparse stage - it was all about the music. They also used "local" bands as openers on the tour. At Rosemont, it was The BoDeans.
Clearly you haven't seen GF III. GF II was fabulous.
Sticker on your car that says “13.1”. Oh, you could only do a half marathon, great - good celebration. What’s next, “GED” ???
no, GED would be the 0.0 stickers. 13.1 is still a hell of an accomplishment.I have co-worker running a 100 mile race in a few days, in reality, he could look down at marathoners as inferior if you think 13.1 makes one inferior.
