Heart (more than once, a personal favorite)
Bob Seger (so underrated live)
Reo Speedwagon
Foreigner
ELO
Cheap Trick
Styx
Kansas
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Jimmy Vaughn
BB King (3 times)
Robert Cray
The Strokes (2001 was in New York City and younger people drug me along)
Hank Jr (at least 5 times)
Garth Brooks
Willie Nelson
Marie Haggard
Johnny Cash
Dwight Yoakum
Buddy Guy

I’m now just envisioning Mecca on her way to work blasting Creed and bellowing “WITH ARMS WIDE OPEN!!!!”

Me too, I saw them

The first Country album I ever bought was No Fences.

Even Black folks in the hood fucked with Garth in the 90’s.

We fucked with Kenny Roger’s in the 80’s.

I wasn’t that into him in the 90s but at the time he may have been the biggest thing since Elvis. I saw him the first year he came back after raising his kids. Dude still puts on a show and for someone that says he can’t play guitar he sure gets a lot of sound out of it.

If anyone ever tells you they have heard more sound out of 3 guys you can look them square in the eye and call them a liar.

 

[Think McFly Think]

Classic rock is my true love I’d say but as a young adt in the 90s I also really love that era as well.

Stone Temple Pilots
Nirvana
Offspring
Alice In Chains
Soundgarden
Pearl Jam
Rage Against The Machine

Among many others..

Accurate.

The only other song I can’t resist is free falling, Tom Petty.

Neil Peart is my favorite drummer followed by John Bonham.

 

[msgkings322]

Genesis, the Police..

I will literally marry you right now for listing Genesis. My favorite band overall and very uncool to like them. You and I girl, let’s run away together and get Phil Collins to officiate

Mine is Phil Collins but Peart is pretty much acknowledged as the most technically proficient rock drummer and it’s not close. I’m a drummer too I don’t even try to play his stuff

Peart for me too, I was really getting into to Taylor Hawkins and he had to go and OD. That guy had a chance to be remembered like that, he was that good.

That's a fact. They were amazing.

Used to take binoculars to the concerts just for Neil Pearts drum solo.

When 2 of the 3 are always in the conversation for best ever on their instrument you are good. Lifeson was no slouch either.
