Here is Metallica's Sad But True from the Black Album! IMO is one of the best sounding songs and one of their best. Kid Rock would remake the song years later and it would be used for The Undertaker off and on :batsmile:



Megadeth - Sweating Bullets! This was actually the first time I saw Megadeth. I thought this was really weird but good too. I would later find out their history with Metallica that Dave Mustaine was with them earlier on. He is kinda similar like James Hetfield in ways, he even dresses like him at times. Megadeth became a really cool group to listen too :!:



Look for a special Megadeth entry in the entrance theme too in a minute. More coming soon :batsmile:

Was never a huge Megadeth fan but definitely remember that video and that song.

Just heard this in the car and admittedly sung along. Brought back memories. I actually saw Biz Markie perform live. No joke. Think I told this story before, so forgive me if I have.



About 10 years ago or so he had a segment on Nickelodeon's Yo Gabba Gabba, and we took the kids to see Yo Gabba Gabba Live at the local theatre and Biz Markie was actually there with the show. You've never seen so many thirty-somethings singing along to a song in your life, but it was probably the highlight of the night when he actually sang the chorus and 6,000 parents sang along, lol.

Cool! Actually I don't recall you talking about him but I'm sure you did. I'm sure you had a ton of fun :)

Here's Mine for today.

Cypress Hill - "Insane In The Brain": I was never a fan of their's but I just liked the tune of this one back then.



Toad The Wet Sprocket - All I Want: I never followed them either but I loved this song. It sounds so good and is quite underrated IMO.



INXS - Not Enough Time: Another one I really never followed but gosh, this song is so sweet! I thought it was soo cool seeing it on MTV way back when :)



That's all for now, more really soon :)

Ah, Spin Doctors. They were popular for a second. I thought I'd share some good ol' Canadian music you may've missed that I was more privy to living in Canada's Puerto Rico (separated by water, Lake Erie, but an unofficial part of the country, lol).

The Tragically Hip "Nautical Disaster--one of the best live bands you'll ever see and a prodigious career many in the US don't even know about. These guys could sell out a 20,000 seat stadium in Canada and still get 1,000 people at a dive bar in Rochester, NY (I was one of them, and got the drumsticks after the show).


The Matthew Good Band "Strange Days"


The Watchmen "Stereo" saw these guys locally a few times. The bassist, who is very animated in this video, used to play the bass live with this Freddy Krueger/Wolverine looking claw glove on. With truly a spectacle. Like Chris Jericho, these guys hail from Winnipeg.


"Any Day Now"

Indeed about the Spin Doctors :roll:

Gosh, you went to a bit of concerts back in the day ;) Do you mean the "actual" drum sticks from Tragically Hip from the stage or replicas they were giving away/bought :?:

I must say I don't know any of these bands. They were/are pretty good. They have some nice tunes. You can clearly tell they are older from 80s & 90s. Thanks for all of the trivia PB, really cool :)

Oh no, it was the actual drummer's sticks It's kind of a fun story. Like I said, it was a bar show and there was maybe 500-1,000 people there. It's actually where I first saw The Watchmen too because they were the opening band for The Hip. After the show we kind of hung around since we were right by the stage and the roadies came out and started cleaning up the equipment. And my buddy asked one of them if he could have the set list (the sheet the band uses listing the order of songs they would play that night) and the roadie gave him the sheet. So I said, hey, what about me? And the roadie looked around the stage and tossed me the drumsticks, lol. My friend was jealous. There's no identification on them saying they're from the band, just whatever brand name the sticks were, but I still have them somewhere.
