David R. Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Two more reasons to love where I live. I just came back from a noontime concert by DEVO! It was in front of City Hall, office of Da Mayor. Free, put on by a car company. Yesterday they had 311 downtown. Devo rocked. They did songs from the first two albums, paid homage to the Mabuhay Gardens (SF's long defunct version of CBGB's) and wore their flowerpot hats. Hmmmm, I did say two reasons... Let's go Gi-ants! Stomp...stomp...stomp stomp stomp! -David R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpmiii Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 So they really are playing together again or was this just a one off? "I never would have seen it, if I didn't already believe it" Unknown http://www.SongCritic.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisDude Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 Yes, this seems to be a trend. I just saw Stone Temple Pilots play a free set on campus a couple of weeks ago. I think Nissan sponsored it. I'll walk past a few cars to see a free show, good times... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyscots Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 DAMNIT DAMNIT I wanna be back in America! I loved that sorta thing, free shows in parks etc. Doesnt happen over here. Well actually it does, but its extremely rare and usually ticketed despite bring free. None of the fantastic 'just show up' stuff. Your country rocks - its laws suck!

On the other hand, what am i doing here in Rocheter? I mean there is no ocean here.-And its not like we get real NYC bagels or pizza. However, Rochester is known to be a "good place to raise kids". --- uggh Check out some tunes here: http://www.garageband.com/artist/KenFava Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick_dont_fret Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 What are you talking about saying that Kansas City has the best BBQ? Dude, you need to come to Memphis, the home of BBQ. Anyone and everyone knows that we have the best BBQ, you should too. Sometime come down the in May for the Memphis in May BBQ contest. They honor a different run down country every year, and they usually participate in stuff sometimes. Come down and check out the Beale St. Music Festival...the first one hosted Stevie Ray Vaughn and someone else, now it's 3 days and over 40 bands, but I have to say the line up in the past few years has kinda sucked (what was Hootie and the BJ's doing here?). Check it out anyway. You can find it somewhere on the web, dunno where. We also have a MS River Canoe and Kayak race that's fun as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easiest to find me on Facebook. Neil Bergman Soundclick fntstcsnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
