tuckomf Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The Beatles Seriously, though - Bobby Bare Jr. Anything he's been involved with is gold. Also, The Supersuckers have been around forever but it seems like they're still underground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Mothers Finest. They have been around forever but mostly play in Europe these days. A girlfriend's sister was dating the manager and turned me on to them. Back in the day in Atlanta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I can't think of any current bands. Crack The Sky were very big in my area back in the late 70's, early 80's and still do occasional reunions. Unfortunatley they never went too far nationally because of inside industry BS, but had songs much better than most of the big acts of the day. Kind of a cross between Yes, Zeppelin and IDK what else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elessar820 Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 KingsXMad Season I'll second Mad Season. I'm a huge Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam fan. Other than that, I'd doubt a lot of the older guys here know Mastodon. EDIT: Above is a great album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturn Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Tripping Daisy There used to be this big bar near me that had all kinds of live music back in the day. (It's now a CVS). Anyway I can almost swear that I used to see Tripping Daisy up on their sign a lot, but I see they're from TX. Maybe it's my imagination? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I like King's X; they've been around for a long time. Ty Tabor is a very cool guitar player and I highly recommend Gretchen Goes to Nebraska to anyone thinking about checking them out. There's a semi-local band around my area called The Gas House Gorillas who I've caught live a couple of times. They're a swing band and they SMOKE. Never saw a guy play an upright bass with an aluminum body and a wireless (yeah, he makes use of the wireless too). They're very tight, have a great sound and are a lot of fun. Catch them if they come to your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matiac Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 they sound familiar... would this have been in 1985? Sounds about right. They played an outdoor show at a place in upstate Ct. called Lake Compounce (sp?), and I thought they both rocked, but I remember Kingdom Come had this HUGE Led Zeppelin vibe, and being a Led-hed, thoroughly dug it. Never heard from them again after that. I THINK they may have had a video on MTV before Jacko came along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
