Saw Suicidal Tendencies twice in my younger, Thrasher Skate days. Which reminds of a funny story. We used to get to shows five hours early and do our version of "tailgating," Altering our minds and bodies with various chemicals and then bombing around the parking lot and the surrounding businesses on our boards. We were all skating a bank and a ramp, which was next to another bank, the FDIC kind. My friend, Dirt, flew down the ramp, launched off the bank and flew into the FDIC bank and stuck his board through the bank's front window. His board stuck there, through the glass up to his front trucks. We grabbed the board, skated away and hid behind the venue where ST was going to perform. No Alarms, No Cops, No nothing. after about a half hour we went back to skating and drinking, a little less boisterously keeping the bank in sight. NO cops ever came. Probably should have put this in the Sketchy Thread. Doesn't matter, I'll probably get hit by a car anyways.

Kid just loves music - Coltrane just mesmerizes him after some warm milk and books about trucks.
Irish folk songs, 40's era "tube music", 60's folk. On that note I am going to listen to Marrakesh Express by Crosby, Stills & Nash

Some great bands. I'm all over the map with the huge shuffle. For a great heavy band hit up Lollipop Lust Kill Was diggin David Gilmour's solo stuff on the subway today Anything by Type O Negative I was late to them but Fugazi is brilliant Liking Volbeat too.
And anyone who has been watching pro football has been listening to a LOT of M&M lately. Chris Berman introducing M&M's new video on ESPN Monday Night Football pregame? M&M in the booth? I mean, nothing screams football like M&M rapping about his estranged wife and the problems with being famous....
I never been into punk music,on occasion il listen to social distortion,dont really know if that's punk or not.i havnt heard any good music put out lately,i mostly listen to everything from deftones to system of a down to lamb of god to tupac.I like a lotta early 90s shyt like soundgarden,stp,alice in chains.also older stuff like led zeppelin,iron maiden,def lepperd..the eagles,hotel California used to be my jam on the way to the beach.on big days il listen to alice in chains " no excuses" on the way down to pump myself up and think no excuses for not chargin.its good to have some heavy metal in your head when your about to get pounded.look at the waves about to break on your head and scream "bring it onnnnnnnnn!!!!"

Lately I can't get enough of these 3 albums/bands: The Ocean (metal) Try the first song and 18:30 of this live performance. It's been on rotation for about 6 straight months and my drug of choice at the moment. Plus...they're named The Ocean for god sake!!

Steven Wilson (prog?) This album is like a long story. In my opinion better towards the middle and end but an amazing album best when played in full. [video=youtube;w4ZqgOnhFT0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4ZqgOnhFT0[/video]
