my friend loves ween

Interesting band...

yep. that's what I said

I recall being mesmerised by "Mutilated lips"

i listened to like five seconds of their top most downloaded song on spotify before giving up. don't remember the name, but it wasn't for me.

they had some heavy spastic moments... you got some interesting stuff in strange places sometimes.... rare though.

How were Twentyone Pilots?

they're a great live show. they play (most) of the instruments live, so you have one guy behind a drum kit and the other guy frantically running from mic stand to a piano to a synth pad then backstage to grab his bass then the synth again and so on. they do this cool thing where the non-drummer disappears offstage and reappears five seconds later in the middle of the crowd. Lots of singing along. Lots of eyeliner. Merch too tight. Made me feel fat.

...Lots of eyeliner. Merch too tight. Made me feel fat

Fuck me that made me laugh. You should review more shows.

alright, I'll do a highlights list 1 for each letter, then I have to get back to work:

A - Alison Krause and Union Station

B - Bauhaus

C - Cake (barely edging out the Cure just on sheer musicianship.... each guy plays like 3 instruments, often in the same song)

D - David Bowie (close tie with Depeche Mode and Dick Dale)

E - Elvis Costello dead tied with Einsturzende Neubauten

F - Front 242

G - Garbage

H - Hole

I - Iggy

J - Jesus Lizard (barely edging out Jeff Beck simply because as great as Jeff is at guitar, a whole night of his music gets tedious as a fan)

K - Killing Joke (barely edging out KMFDM)

L - Lush (close tie with Les Paul)

M - Metallica (close tie with Ministry)

N - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

O - Orbital (just 2 guys pushing buttons, but still memorable and fun)

P - Portishead (close tie with Porno for Pyros and the Parliament Funkadelic all-stars)

Q - Queens of the Stone Age

R - Rage Against the Machine (close tie with Rollins Band and the Rolling Stones)

S - Steely Dan (close tie with Smashing Pumpkins and Soundgarden)

T - Teenage Fanclub

U - Urge Overkill

V - the Vandals

W - Waylon Jennings

X - all I've got is X-marks the Pedwalk even though I was dragged to that little show

Y -

Z -

I am stuck on the last 2 letters, I may never have seen a Y or Z act. I can't think of a single one.

Surely YES and ZWAN

hahaha... no. I don't do prog rock and I saw smashing pumpkins on every tour until they dissolved after machina... no reason to ever see Corgan again

some letters wound up being populated easily because I could only remember 1 or 2 artists for that letter... some had lots of candidates because one act stood head and shoulders above the rest for that letter.... but some letters were so hard to narrow it down to even 2 options! the alphabetical method was interesting

I should. I made snide remarks about my friend going to a Fall Out Boy concert by asking him how hot the vocalist is.

those guys (ween) live about 45 minutes from my house in New Hope (or they used to).... as a kid there was a good chance I could catch them playing the odd all ages show in New Hope when I would truck up there from northeast to embrace the queer country coutnerculture.
