Ween, definitely, any of the three times I've seen them. The first time was like a religious experience. Several people who were there with me, and who were tripping, had to leave. It was great.

I've been watching their dvd "Live in Chicago" more times than I've watched any other dvd I own. Dean Ween is such an underappreciated guitar god.

If you enoy marveling at musicians who should not be able to perform as well as they do, given their inebriated state, seek out some live Ween, in the flesh or on plastic.

it's a tossup for me between Davy Jones( x-Monkees) at The Mable House Ampitheatre( got to meet him as well), or Ray Stevens at Lanier Land. Country comics rule!

Man, I remember when they came through Athens and I had the chance to go... I've kicked myself for a few years now for not going.

I remember finding them by accident while searching for Emperor mp3s a few years ago and being blown away.

I was at that show. Black Dice really tested my patience as an opening act, but Godspeed were pretty good. The film clips they were showing on the backdrop would've been cooler if the screen had been bigger and not half projected on the band themselves.

Wow!

Did the Defense Department return their bass player or was he replaced by an automaton?

And of course they played InnaGoddaDaVida. They played that and 4 other songs that no one had ever heard of.

For me, probably Pink Floyd at Bobby Dodd Stadium in '94. But there's also a special place in my pants for Tori Amos.

I was at that show, and I completely agree about the Black Dice. Two huge dorks dorking out to their laptops, making the most abysmal rhythm-deviod crap I've ever heard anyone have the nuts to get up and 'perform' in front of others. Left me wondering if GYBE had hand-picked those douchebags or were just stuck with them.

Anyway, yes. Seriously intense show. Sometimes it was overwhelmingly loud, and sometimes so quiet you could hear people's chain wallets rattling.

Metalfreak: I saw them the night before the Eric Rudolph bombed the olympic park so whenever the Olympics were. They did indeed play the mighty tune. They really did rock out and hard. It was cool just chilling with all these older heads burnin down to the classic tunage. Good times
