It Starts Now: Volume Four - 2012 Lollapalooza Headliner Speculation

[hbankhead]

Maybe I exagerrated a little, but arbee has the correct reason. Get off your high horse, people.

[hbankhead]

perspective.

Bitchslap.

[nanatod]

i saw them do an in-store at the borders on state street a couple of years before they played lolla. there weren't more than 20 people in the audience. it was an excellent thievery corporation performance.

[Krentistthedentist]

Get off your high horse, people.

Oh, kill yourself.

[thefrontman55]

This isn't speculation per-say, but a band like Alice in Chains/Smashing Pumpkins (90s legacy act who aren't relevant enough/ lacking original line up) would they be given a 4,5,6 spot or sub spot?

[Krentistthedentist]

Alice is a sub.
Not sure about Pumpkins.

[thefrontman55]

That's what i was thinking about Alice, but i can't decide about Smashing Pumpkins either. I know it's not really relevant to the discussion other than I'd say there's a decent shot for either of those bands being on a Lollapalooza line up.

[symbionese]

Bitchslap.

aside from seeing one shitty show, you didn't do a goddamn thing. so i'm not quite sure what you're popping off about. get an actual oeuvre and some taste and maybe -- just maybe -- you can begin to talk.

[symbionese]

and for the record, my above was a dickslap. and flaccid at that.

next time i put it in fully engorged.

[johnd12751]

S......T.......P

[nikolajz1]

Doesnt STP play state fairs now a days?

[johnd12751]

they played charter one and packed it last time they came to chicago.

[Audiobully]

Doesnt STP play state fairs now a days?

They did just play Rockford's festival, but to their defense, they took basically the entire fest's budget.

[hbankhead]

aside from seeing one shitty show, you didn't do a goddamn thing. so i'm not quite sure what you're popping off about. get an actual oeuvre and some taste and maybe -- just maybe -- you can begin to talk.

Dance puppet.

[hbankhead]

Oh, kill yourself.

But could you get off your perch?

[MookieDaddy]

Now I remember why I don't check this thread at all...

[hbankhead]

Don't start none, won't be none.

[oasisfan]

so can we get back to the speculating? and can we get a leak for the love of god

[nikkirkpatrick]

be my guest.

[3dthinker]

Leaks aren't likely in September

[nikkirkpatrick]

REM - The Killers - Katy Perry
Beastie Boys - Modest Mouse - Fleet Foxes

The Killers vs Fleet Foxes
REM vs Katy Perry
Beastie Boys vs Modest Mouse

[Krentistthedentist]

Any scenario in which I'd probably see the Killers is not a good one.

[concertgoer]

People need to stop expecting leaks especially considering that the festival was a month ago
That Muse article last year the exception to the rule when it comes to Lolla leaks

[concertgoer]

Any scenario in which I'd probably see the Killers is not a good one.

I thought you liked Fleet Foxes?

[nikkirkpatrick]

Any scenario in which I'd probably see the Killers is not a good one.

worse than poo fighters vs shitmau5? dayum, sun.

[oasisfan]

People need to stop expecting leaks especially considering that the festival was a month ago
That Muse article last year the exception to the rule when it comes to Lolla leaks

its not that i'm expecting them i just want them, does c3 even know who they might be getting yet

[concertgoer]

C3 probably already has a few headliners booked

[arbee]

They are actually meeting today at the Four Seasons in Austin. They are on lunch right now though.

[nikkirkpatrick]

They are actually meeting today at the Four Seasons in Austin. They are on lunch right now though.

hack into the security cameras and capture shots of the minutes, plz.

[arbee]

Cameras and mikes hidden in the water jugs.

[Audiobully]

Carl already knows who the headliners are I bet.

[For Petes Sake]

Where would Garbage fit in here? Devo type spot? Sub? or 6 headliner?

[Broc1123]

REM - The Killers - Katy Perry
Beastie Boys - Modest Mouse - Fleet Foxes

The Killers vs Fleet Foxes
REM vs Katy Perry
Beastie Boys vs Modest Mouse

Decent guess. I don't them bringing the Killers back so soon, especially as a #2, kinda like how Coldplay got bumped to #3 after not being in the news for a couple years.

Modest Mouse, unless they have an album coming out, wouldn't be really be headliner worthy as this point. That isn't gonna get people excited.

The rest is feasible though.

[nikkirkpatrick]

MM is wprling on that album Big Boi is producing. No idea when it will be out, but id expect it sometime before the lineup is announced.

[nikolajz1]

REM - The Killers - Katy Perry
Beastie Boys - Modest Mouse - Fleet Foxes

The Killers vs Fleet Foxes
REM vs Katy Perry
Beastie Boys vs Modest Mouse

Meh...

[concertgoer]

LOL at seeing Katy Perry over REM

[Greg Nasty]

I'd see Katy Perry over REM.

[Krentistthedentist]

I'd much rather look at Katy Perry than Michael Stipe.

[nikolajz1]

Me too.

[El Goodo]

I'd see Katy Perry over REM.

So you can avoid Bryn, right?

[concertgoer]

I'd much rather look at Katy Perry than Michael Stipe.

Yeah but you would see REM

[concertgoer]

So you can avoid Bryn, right?

Bryn would be on the rail all day for that anyway

[El Goodo]

Hey-oh?

[concertgoer]

Heh

[oasisfan]

Lenny Kravitz?

[concertgoer]

No
Though Nana would love this booking

[oasisfan]

it would be fun i think

[nikkirkpatrick]

He could headline the kitsch-apalooza stage.

[joelmanfu]

How about Beyonce's first show back after having her wonder baby?

[arbee]

Lenny Kravitz?

I was looking forward to Lenny Kravitz with U2 in Seattle but he was boring.

[nikkirkpatrick]

kravitz was interesting when his name was hendrix.

[arbee]

/thread

[Krentistthedentist]

Yeah but you would see REM

no shit.

[oasisfan]

if REM and The Cure both play i don't think i could handle all of the joyous outburst on this board. i honestly think it might be the only time that for maybe 10 mins we have no one bitch

[symbionese]

rem haven't been good since irs.

[oasisfan]

i have never paid much attention to REM

[vargo05]

i have never paid much attention to REM

Good idea.

[Audiobully]

if REM and The Cure both play i don't think i could handle all of the joyous outburst on this board. i honestly think it might be the only time that for maybe 10 mins we have no one bitch

I'd bitch. The Cure is decent but I really haven't liked REM for almost 20 years.

[xbadx1233]

I've come to the conclusion that every band sucks except for The Cure

[sleeping]

every band sucks except for The Cure
qft

[Krentistthedentist]

Hey guys guess what
The Cure and REM will never come to Lolla.
Their fans are too old for festivals and they stand to make too much money elsewhere.
Sorry to ruin your day.

[concertgoer]

Meh they booked Depeche Mode and Sounagarden recently and they both have older fanbases

[Krentistthedentist]

Yeah.
And then they booked babby bands in 2011 and it was the most successful year ever.

[symbionese]

why didn't everyone just go to bestival?

[symbionese]

or even sydney for that matter...

[Thisismyname]

YEAH GUIZE!? WHAT ABOUT SYDNEY!?

[Krentistthedentist]

why didn't everyone just go to bestival?

Because we're poor because we spend our time on an internet message board.
How you put up 30k+ and still manage to be successful is beyond me.

[symbionese]

spend a month with me sometime. and maybe you'll get a peek.

[Krentistthedentist]

Do you have internship positions available for Summer 2012?

[symbionese]

you'd have to grow your hair back out.

[Krentistthedentist]

I don't grow back hair.
But I know exactly what you mean.
That can be arranged.

[nikolajz1]

I'm hiring an intern

[Krentistthedentist]

I have no clue what symb does.
It's probably more fun than what you do.

[Thisismyname]

Turns out he's just a really well payed plumber.

[nikolajz1]

So is symb joe the plumber then?

Knew it.

[Audiobully]

I miss Joe the $100k a year earning plumber.

[symbionese]

So is symb joe the plumber then?

Knew it.

you wish i'd snake your pipes.

[oasisfan]

I've come to the conclusion that every band sucks except for The Cure

wrong conclusion try again

[austincarstens]

does anyone honestly want to see marilyn manson? excluding juggalos cuz they aren't real people

best.

[austincarstens]

The only argument that I've heard as to why Californication is a bad album is "Because John had left the band the first time." Fuck that, it's a great album.

it's my favorite by them, by far

[IAmScareMongering]

There isn't an album of theirs I actually like.

[Krentistthedentist]

best.

Actually, that was a pretty lame joke.

[symbionese]

it's my favorite by them, by far

shit taste. across the board.

[nikolajz1]

you wish i'd snake your pipes.

YOU KNOW IT, symb.

[joelmanfu]

Hey guys guess what
The Cure and REM will never come to Lolla.
Their fans are too old for festivals and they stand to make too much money elsewhere.
Sorry to ruin your day.

THIS

[johnd12751]

radiohead and no doubt are locks for coachella now. just thought everyone should know.

[nikolajz1]

No Doubt is much more likely to play Lolla next year.

Red Hot Chili Peppers- Jay-Z- The Killers
No Doubt- Queens of the Stone Age- Wilco

[concertgoer]

I think it will more like
Jay-Z- RCHP- No Doubt
Black Keys- Fleet Foxes- Justice

[johnd12751]

dont see queens of the stone age that high, and over wilco

[johnd12751]

and cg, i think yours is just too light, after seeing 2011's 4 mega headliners, the bottom 3 and even the #3 seem a little light for headliners

[oasisfan]

queens of the stone age arent headliner level

[symbionese]

queens of the stone age arent headliner level

depends on who #5 and #7 are.

[Audiobully]

Jane's Addiction and TV on the Radio

[symbionese]

at lolla, queens are 6.

[emitts]

Is the general consensus that The Throne (Ye-Z) and/or the Beasties are out of the running as possible/likely headliners? What about The Raconteurs?

[symbionese]

you're aware that the consensus doesn't know shit -- correct?

[Audiobully]

And with that...

Throne---out
Beasties---maybe
Racs---maybe

[emitts]

Well aware the consensus doesn't mean anything, just curious. Throne being out and Beasties/Racs being maybes is what I thought. Thanks!

[Krentistthedentist]

at lolla, queens are 6.

And I'm sure you're saying this because that's where they are on the lineup?
I'd actually be really excited about this except it would cost me a Queens club show.

[symbionese]

if it's a small show you want, you need to come west.

[Krentistthedentist]

Get us into a private Rancho show and I'm there.

[MadBird11]

And with that...

Throne---out
Beasties---maybe
Racs---maybe

I think you mean out out and out.

[Audiobully]

Why? Beasties were on a lineup and had to bail. Their new album will have been out for a year and a few select dates could be in order. Racs are playing some festivals this summer/fall, right? I'm not saying it's going to happen, but I can't say no way to those two.

[oasisfan]

i hope beasties don't play or at least someone great is against them

[Audiobully]

This coming from OASISfan

[nikkirkpatrick]

burn.

[oasisfan]

This coming from OASISfan

you know it would be amazing if Oasis was up against them

[oasisfan]

that way why they were talking about their Brass Monkey or some other shit I could hear Champagne Supernova or The Masterplan or any other hit of theirs

[nikkirkpatrick]

that way while they were talking about their Brass Monkey or some other shit I could hear Champagne Supernova or The Masterplan or any other hit of theirs

dummy.

[Krentistthedentist]

This coming from OASISfan

I like Oasis but what a fucking idiotic thing to say.

(irt ofan's original statement)

[MadBird11]

I don't see the Beasties touring until Adam is 100%. And nobody knows what Jack White is doing at this point.

[nikkirkpatrick]

I don't see the Beasties touring until Adam is 100%. And nobody knows what Jack White is doing at this point.

drinking faygo

[concertgoer]

Hehe

[oasisfan]

I like Oasis but what a fucking idiotic thing to say.

(irt ofan's original statement)

what is idiotic about it? i don't like Beastie Boys. i just can't listen to them

[nikkirkpatrick]

While?

[concertgoer]

Beastie Boys>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Oasis

[nikolajz1]

Beastie Boys>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Oasis

lol no

[WretchedSkye2113]

Beastie Boys>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Oasis

i don't like either and i agree with this post.

[nikkirkpatrick]

i don't like either and i agree with this post.

same

[concertgoer]

You guys must hate fun then

[nikkirkpatrick]

beasties have their moments. so does oasis. difference is, the guys in oasis are dbags. the beasties are not.

[WretchedSkye2113]

i hate fun.

[concertgoer]

i hate fun.

How much fun are we going to have at Coachella?

[WretchedSkye2113]

ABSOLUTELY 0 IF IT'S BEASTIES AND OASIS.

[nikkirkpatrick]

WHATIF IT'S EMINEM NO DOUBT AND COLDPLAY?

[concertgoer]

Haha
What about Radiohead, Coldplay and No Doubt?

[WretchedSkye2113]

i can roll with RH CP ND.

[WretchedSkye2113]

note RH CP, not RHCP.

[Krentistthedentist]

fuck.
Someone make an insane prediction so these next 5 minutes fly by

[WretchedSkye2113]

DAVID BOWIE THE CURE TUPAC
PORTISHEAD ADELE ICP W/ JACKWHITE

[Krentistthedentist]

oh fuck no way who's your source?

[concertgoer]

fuck.
Someone make an insane prediction so these next 5 minutes fly by

What happens in five minutes?

[nikkirkpatrick]

DAVID BOWIE THE CURE TUPAC
PORTISHEAD ADELE ICP W/ JACKWHITE

ADELE AND PORTISHEAD WOULD BE SWITCHED

MATCHUPS

BOWIE VS PORTISHEAD
THE CURE VS ADELE
TUPAC VS ICP W/ WHITE

[oasisfan]

beasties have their moments. so does oasis. difference is, the guys in oasis are dbags. the beasties are not.

even i'll admit they are dbags but they are better than the beasties

[arbee]

I like both. Hard to compare. But i much much prefer Oasis. And the fact that Oasis are D'Bags makes them even more lovable.

[Krentistthedentist]

What happens in five minutes?

I was waiting to buy my tickets to see the best band of its generation.

[oasisfan]

being?

[nikkirkpatrick]

Look around. You'll figure it out, old chap.

[oasisfan]

i'm aware he loves kanye but thats not a band and i don't think its the cure but might be wrong

[Krentistthedentist]

http://spinitloud.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/masto-wembley.jpg

[Caseysitsallgood]

I was waiting to buy my tickets to see the best band of its generation.

in your opinion.

[Krentistthedentist]

I am sure my pick is objectively better than yours.

[johnd12751]

Time for a prediction:



Radiohead * Daft Punk * Kanye West
The Cure* The Black Keys * Neutral Milk Hotel


South vs North vs Grove vs Perry's

Radiohead vs The Black Keys vs Black Rebel Motorcycle Club vs Justice
Daft Punk vs Neutral Milk Hotel vs Silversun Pickups vs Wiz Khalifa
Kanye West vs The Cure vs The Gaslight Anthem vs Tiesto

[oasisfan]

http://spinitloud.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/masto-wembley.jpg

is this the best band of its generation?

[oasisfan]

Time for a prediction:



Radiohead * Daft Punk * Kanye West
The Cure* The Black Keys * Neutral Milk Hotel


South vs North vs Grove vs Perry's

Radiohead vs The Black Keys vs Black Rebel Motorcycle Club vs Justice
Daft Punk vs Neutral Milk Hotel vs Silversun Pickups vs Wiz Khalifa
Kanye West vs The Cure vs The Gaslight Anthem vs Tiesto

while i don't think this will happen at all I love it

[Caseysitsallgood]

I am sure my pick is objectively better than yours.

depends. what generation are we discussing here?

[Krentistthedentist]

The generation that includes Mastodon.

[thelastonealive]

Time for a prediction:



Radiohead * Daft Punk * Kanye West
The Cure* The Black Keys * Neutral Milk Hotel


South vs North vs Grove vs Perry's

Radiohead vs The Black Keys vs Black Rebel Motorcycle Club vs Justice
Daft Punk vs Neutral Milk Hotel vs Silversun Pickups vs Wiz Khalifa
Kanye West vs The Cure vs The Gaslight Anthem vs Tiesto

No chance in hell, but that'd be an excellent festival. Though I must bemoan the Daft Punk/NMH and Cure/Gaslight Anthem conflicts.

[Krentistthedentist]

At lesat someone good is playing at the same time as NMH

[Audiobully]

Metallica * Red Hot Chili Peppers * Beastie Boys
The Black Keys * Jane's Addiction * Justice

Metallica with Lou Reed fwiw

[WretchedSkye2113]

ain't worth shit based on the released 0:38 we've heard.

[Caseysitsallgood]

The generation that includes Mastodon.

so what, the last 12 years? ok.

[Caseysitsallgood]

The generation that includes Mastodon.

So Radiohead, Foo Fighters, White Stripes, Daft Punk, for some examples, are lesser than Mastodon?

[WretchedSkye2113]

those were all before mastodon, as far as i'm concerned.

[austincarstens]

shit taste. across the board.

yeah...i guess not everyone can be an ass like you D8

[sleeping]

Radiohead * Daft Punk * Kanye West
The Cure * The Black Keys * Neutral Milk Hotel


Metallica * Red Hot Chili Peppers * Beastie Boys
The Black Keys * Jane's Addiction * Justice
Would happily go to either one of these.

[Krentistthedentist]

So Radiohead, Foo Fighters, White Stripes, Daft Punk, for some examples, are lesser than Mastodon?

#1 You're a fag for even suggesting Foo Fighters are anywhere as good as Mastodon
#2 In the years 2000-present, yes. Mastodon has absolutely been better than Radiohead.
#3 Same thing with Daft Punk. Keep in mind that 50% of DPs post-mastodon material has been Human After All
#4 White Stripes were obviously a great band, but their best album came out before Remission had even been released.

So, yes, all those bands are lesser than mastodon.

[IAmScareMongering]

NMH might be the most unrealistic prediction in this entire thread.

[IAmScareMongering]

#2 In the years 2000-present, yes. Mastodon has absolutely been better than Radiohead.


lol

[Krentistthedentist]

NMH might be the most unrealistic prediction in this entire thread.

And the shittiest.

[Krentistthedentist]

lol

OMG BLEEP BLOOP BLOOP KID A IS SO AMAAAZZZINNNGGGGGG

[Caseysitsallgood]

you know, with that response, I don't think I need to even attempt to prove you wrong anymore. back to speculation.

[Krentistthedentist]

I am way too smart for you to ever prove me wrong.

[IAmScareMongering]

OMG BLEEP BLOOP BLOOP KID A IS SO AMAAAZZZINNNGGGGGG

.

[Krentistthedentist]

lol.
I was trolling, obviously.
Still a great record.
I just think Mastodon has been more consistent lately than Radiohead and they've done a much better job at evolving their sound from record to record.
King of Limbs was pretty fucking weak.

[IAmScareMongering]

It was, but their other 4 records stand for themselves.

[Krentistthedentist]

No band is as peerless in their field as Mastodon is.
The only one who comes close is Kanye.

[Caseysitsallgood]

not sure smart is the proper word

[Krentistthedentist]

That's because you're a moron.

[Caseysitsallgood]

heh

[Greg Nasty]

No band is as peerless in their field as Mastodon is.
The only one who comes close is Kanye.

I think I disagree.

[oasisfan]

i would like to say i know a lot of "metalheads" and all of them shit on Mastodon all the time

[Krentistthedentist]

They are probably Between the Buried and Me fans.

[WretchedSkye2113]

I think I disagree.

was waiting for that.

[xbadx1233]

They are probably Between the Buried and Me fans.


Don't hate. Colors is the greatest prog metal album of all time.

[oasisfan]

They are probably Between the Buried and Me fans.

good call actually for at least one of them anyways

[Audiobully]

The best metal band of all time is TNT and it isn't even close. "Everyone's A Star" is a remarkable single.

[nanatod]

Radiohead * Daft Punk * Kanye West
The Cure* The Black Keys * Neutral Milk Hotel



Of the four bands that I've seen before on your list, I wouldn't bother seeing them again. I would however like to see the Cure in concert, but I doubt we'll see them at a future Lollapalooza.

[Krentistthedentist]

Don't hate. Colors is the greatest prog metal album of all time.

Is that like being the skinniest kid in fat camp or something?

[xbadx1233]

Is that like being the skinniest kid in fat camp or something?

Being fat is too mainstream

Being fat is too mainstream

Lollapalooza is too mainstream

Lollapalooza is too mainstream

so edgy.

[Audiobully]

TOO edgy

[xbadx1233]

Lollapalooza is too mainstream

At least their food isn't mainstream. If it was I would have to bitch about it on my Xanga account because nobody will see it there

Nile, you may have to adjust your prediction.
One of those bands is a headliner.

[TonyPicker690]

With all the crap C3 has been booking lately, I'm surprised there hasn't been any Linkin Park predictions for next year.

[Audiobully]

How many headliners and slots do you think they have booked already?

2 (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jane's Addiction), working on the next one.

[nikkirkpatrick]

Speaking of crap

#loljustkiddingperry

Radiohead to tour in 2012...

[MadBird11]

Speaking of crap

#loljustkiddingperry

No, you're right on actually.

And Radiohead still isn't playing.

[nikkirkpatrick]

No, you're right on actually.

And Radiohead still isn't playing.

i just don't want him to punish us by booking:

RHCP - Jane's - Porno for Pyros
Black Keys - Tiesto - Sattelite Party

[MadBird11]

i just don't want him to punish us by booking:

RHCP - Jane's - Porno for Pyros
Black Keys - Tiesto - Sattelite Party

He already punished us with last years lineup, fuck that guy.

[symbionese]

you are aware he doesn't do the booking.

[MadBird11]

Of course, but it's fun to blame people.

[arbee]

Linkin Park * Linkin Park * Linkin Park
Linkin Park * Linkin Park * ABBA

I would go to this.

[symbionese]

i blame you.

[MadBird11]

I didn't buy a ticket.

[nanatod]

I would go to this.

I would, too.

[JML]

Not that there was much of a chance in the first place but I guess we can definitely count REM out:
http://remhq.com/news_story.php?id=1446



"To our Fans and Friends: As R.E.M., and as lifelong friends and co-conspirators, we have decided to call it a day as a band. We walk away with a great sense of gratitude, of finality, and of astonishment at all we have accomplished. To anyone who ever felt touched by our music, our deepest thanks for listening." R.E.M.

[symbionese]

you're going to make bryn cry.

[sleeping]

Sucks. I never had a chance to see them live.

edit: hopefully the reissues and vault tracks will keep coming out

[El Goodo]

Yes, you will.

[joelmanfu]

Radiohead - Red Hot Chili Peppers - Jay-Z
Jane's Addiction - Wilco - Vampire Weekend

[oasisfan]

Radiohead - Red Hot Chili Peppers - Jay-Z
Jane's Addiction - Wilco - Vampire Weekend

your not supposed to put realistic things in here it should be all nonsense until we get some actual evidence

[Krentistthedentist]

REM* The White Stripes * LCD Soundsystem

[oasisfan]

see he gets it along with The Beatles * Johnny Cash * Frank Sinatra

[Hurricane Kid]

REM* The White Stripes * LCD Soundsystem

OMG You really think so? I really hope Outkast or 2Pac can perform too. How kul would that b?

[cosmo]

.

[nanatod]

I really hope Outkast or 2Pac can perform too. How kul would that b?

tupac was just okay with digital underground in 1990 at UIC.

[MadBird11]

Nana at a Tupac show does not compute. Actually, I have trouble placing nana at any hip-hop/rap show.

[nanatod]

Actually, I have trouble placing nana at any hip-hop/rap show.

I've posted all over this board about my attendance at hip hop shows. and not just hip hop shows that are parts of festivals. did you see Kurtis Blow in 1986, Public Enemy and Ice Cube in separate shows in 1990, Run DMC in 1993, Jay Z at the Riviera, and Kanye on two continents?

[El Goodo]

Madbird, you are thinking of Arbee.

[MadBird11]

Dude, I was born in 93. I'm hopelessly behind everything.

[concertgoer]

I really like that post

[El Goodo]

I want to stop and appreciate, "Kanye on 2 continents."

[MadBird11]

I also really didn't start following music until two years ago.

[MadBird11]

I want to stop and appreciate, "Kanye on 2 continents."

Something for Krentist to strive for.

[TonyPicker690]

Too soon for a R.E.M. reunion tour in 2012??

[MadBird11]

It's still not funny.

[arbee]

Madbird, you are thinking of Arbee.

I have seen a fair number of Hip Hop acts, including one when you were in kindergarten or grade 1.

[Krentistthedentist]

Something for Krentist to strive for.

Won't be long.

[xbadx1233]

But really people R.E.M. would have been awesome

[nikolajz1]

Not really

[El Goodo]

I have seen a fair number of Hip Hop acts, including one when you were in kindergarten or grade 1.

Ha ha. Standing corrected, then.

What were some of your favorites back in say, '84, just out of curiosity? (no snark intended)

[Krentistthedentist]

Not really

You are a terrible, terrible, terrible gay.

RHCP-Kanye-Somebody that's not The Cure
Jane's Addiction-Wilco-Tiesto

The band i saw that i was referring to was The Beastie Boys opening for Madonna at MLG in 85. Only bands/artists i was really familiar with back then were Grandmaster Flash, Whodini, Run DMC and Kurtis Blow. Certainly not an expert but i was listening.

Filing this under Things I Learned Today on the Lollaboard.

How was that Modonna/Beasties show btw?

[arbee]

Madonna was way more interesting to me back then. Never bothered to see her again. Beasties were rude and crude and were not that well received. They only played for 30-35 minutes, but i am sure glad that i saw them. Sadly have not seen them since, but definitely will at next opportunity.
