hi, im new here. i had some trouble signing up to the board, the activation emal didnt work and i waited a while so it was finaly sent. anyways ive been here before as a guest a lot of times but never signed up.
hi, hmm a lot
but my favourite 3 are sonic youth, dinosaur and mudhoney. i like punk rock, alternative, that type of stuffHello, I like Mudhoney too, they are nice guys and fun to drink beer with. But Dinosaur are my fav. Welcome to the board.
I live just south of Seattle, I’ve seen and or have met a lot of the popular grunge bands. Mark, Steve and Dan are way cool, I wish Matt Lukin would come back though, he was rad. He would always crack jokes in between songs, totally cool guy.
thats awesome. what other bands did you meet? ive seen mudhoney live in may and they were hillarious
Back in the day I met a lot of those bands the Screaming Trees, Mudhoney, Kim Thayil of Soundgarden, The Nirvana guys (before Nevermind), and a bunch of others that never got as big globally but locally. I was a senior in high school when Nevermind came out. All I did back in those days was buy vinyl and go to shows. Thats how I met a lot of those bands, at shows. Those bands weren’t always big and were pretty accessable. You’d often see members from other bands at shows. I remember one show where Dan Peters played with the Screaming Trees just after Mark Pickerel quit, and Mark Arm was there. I met Kim Thayil at a Dinosaur Jr show. Those days were cool.
Yeah back then the scene was really cool. It was just ours, and in a way it was like a community. Once Nirvana hit the whole thing got blown to shreds.
I still haven’t expeienced anything like that since, it really was a special time and I am fortunate to have witnessed it so close up.
