Those were the good ol days. Alice In Chains and Dave Mustaine use to ride poor Rikki pretty hard too. |

they should have Morrissey and Danzig play one after the other on the same stage. No Morrissey in Denver? Must not be enough Mexicans in Denver to support a Morrissey headline slot.

I mean, I love a lot of "literate" rock, but I still find the Hold Steady terribly boring. |

I can't stand that dumb 80s rock, though. |

If you guys go, try to check out Off With Their Heads. My buddy John Polydoros plays guitar live for them...not on the albums. |

I saw them a few years back at a street fest and they were pretty weak overall. Bass playing Kirkwood brother was a mess. I was devastated. Hold Steady has some tunes I really dig. |

The bartender said that he knew the big dude who laid out Danzig and that the whole thing started because the big dude's band was that night's opener but their equipment arrived late. He went around asking all the other bands if they wouldn't mind dropping one song off their set list so that his band could play a short one. The other bands were cool with it, but Danzing was a total jackass and bit off more than he could chew. |

Yeah, he was a mess....during the 90s....early 2000s.....sobered up in jail. Saw them three times, he was not with the band the last time (at NIU)....Jesus, I'm old. |
