Music Appreciation

[Esqueleto]

Saw soundgarden at Voodoo in 2011 he sounded fantastic

Saw NIN in Houston in 2008, great show as well.

Saw NiN at the HOB in NO around 94/95 and again in Dallas with David Bowie. Incredible show

With the wide range of music you guys are talking about, I was wondering how many of y'all ever listen to KBON out of Eunice. Since I moved back to the area a few months back, That's about the only station I listen to on the radio any more. They play swamp pop, cajun zydeco, the blues, blue grass, country & even hip hop late on the weekends. I read a thread Helmut posted about old school radio dying on the vine & he may be right. But KBON with it's commitment to playing local talent & diversity of music is kicking butt & will still be here when every other FM station in this area is long gone.

Yes. KBON is great, and is the music station I stream the most.

Big Al and Gumbo Phil are also Ragin Cajun fans.

This is one I recently started listening too.

Josh has got some good stuff. I’ve seen Charles Wesley Godwin 4 times, and Josh opened a couple times.

Cornell is the best but not by much. A lot of those 90s grunge/metal bands had awesome vocalists. One guy who is heavily underrated is James Iha from the Smashing Pumpkins. Doesn't sing a lot but when he does it is really good. Also an amazing guitarist.

Saw Smashing Pumpkins in Biloxi around April of 94. I remember this because we learned of Kirk Cobain's death at the hotel prior to the show.
That Pumpkins concert was the most electric concert I've ever been to. It felt like the entire place was bouncing. We started out on the floor about halfway back and when they hit it off the girl I was with got so swallowed up by the mosh pit, I thought I'd never see her again. That ____ was INSANE.

Look I’m trying, but somehow I feel like Bowie isn’t gonna be quite as good when I see him as he was for Esqueleto.

Man, what I wouldn't give to see Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Zz Top, or the Stones in their prime.

I have seen each of these but Pink Floyd.

I have seen each of these but Pink Floyd.

I wish Lafayette would still get Rock bands to tour here, but what really is a good rock band these days?
