Which day you going?

Was trying to convince the wife to go see Tool with me..

The whole thing. Thursday - Sunday. Will be my third time seeing Tool. Excited about that. Taking my wife with me hopefully as well as long the grandparents are cool with watching the little man. Should be fun though.
You guys might enjoy an homage to hair metal. Weezer released a record called Van Weezer recently. It's a fun mashup of their style against the heavy riffs of the 80s.

I got offered an option..

Me and the wife can either go see Tool, or we can head down to The Keys after spring break..

Tool is one of my favorite bands, but honestly, I'd rather do a long weekend at Mile Marker 0 lol

One day I'll finally see Tool in concert.. Definitely a bucket list thing.

Have fun dude!! We NEED some bootleg concert vids lol

Weezer is such an underrated and underappreciated band IMHO. I saw their video or cover of Ah-Ha's "Take on Me" awhile back. Really dig it.
Watching Pearl Jam live in Chicago, 2016..

Damn good concert!

I just noticed, at 3:44, there's a guy in the audience with his hands over his ears.  lol

He was probably looking for the Don Ho concert playing down the road and wandered in by mistake.
Classic song by a Classic Canadian Band......

Got a mate who works at a museum over here and I believe Jimmy Page is due to turn up to an exhibition they have on. Word was he'd had to cancel the original date due to Jeff Becks funeral.

Seventies man myself, like a wide range of stuff but in recent years I find myself veering between a lot of Zeppelin especially live from 69ish to 73' and classical music ... Although when summer rolls round i listen to a fair bit of skynyrd, nobody ever wrote a better sunshine song than 'Alabama' and 'Curtis Loew', 'things goin on' and 'am I losin' are hugely underrated ... Saw them 3/4 years ago in Glasgow ... Not exactly one seeing them in Atlanta in 71' but I was pleased i went and saw Rossington play all the same!

Triumph was awesome in concert. They were all about the music. Rik Emmett was amazing to watch, and hear, switching back and forth without missing a beat on a double neck guitar.
There's literally a thousand songs I could post, and the top 100 would be hard to whittle down.

Plenty of usual suspects, including the Who, Rush, Stones, Boston, Bad Company, Judas Priest, Zeppelin, Cheap Trick, Genesis, Blue Oyster Cult, Styx, Kansas, Van Halen, Yes, AC/DC, Heart, Aerosmith, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Lynnrd Skynnrd, Traffic, Santana, Clapton (and every band he's been in), Deep Purple, Queen, Rainbow, Sabbath, Fleetwood Mac, Eagles, Zevon, ABBA (yes I went there), Stevie Wonder, ZZ top and I haven't even left the 70s yet. That's 30 off the top of my head.

Nice to see Triumph get a post. I'll offer another Canadian band with one of the best known stadium rock songs of all time:

Some people may have long forgotten about this band but they were always one of my favorites........

There was a time when April Wine, Montrose, and Uriah Heep where on regular rotation on my 8-track, lol.

It always comes back to Zeppelin for me. There are 7 or 8 tracks from various albums that still sound like magic after all these years.

However - this is a good thread to revisit some of those acts that sometime get lost in the shuffle.

Good one from 1977 here:

These guys only had a couple hits, but I've always loved the old school electric piano comps on this track.

I've always loved how raw the mix and drumming are on this track - loose but authentic:

I know The Cars are considered new wave for good reason, but their first record was in 1978 and this is a pretty rocking track despite the synth hook.

All of Machine Head is great, but here's an underrated track.

From the 1st ever album pressed with translucent gold vinyl....

One of the weird ones from the early 70's

Not much in the way of post 2000 stuff but Wolfmother, The Music, Louis XVI and Greta Van Fleet have all done good stuff ... Joker and the thief, Take the long road and walk it, ball of twine and age of man are all good respective starting points

I do like that Greta Van Fleet.. Got that old school 70's sound to them.
