[CanuckAmok]

9. I Against I

in the quest for the test to fulfill an achievement
everybody's only in it for themselves
when the fact of the matter is they just don't care
to extend a helping hand to anyone else
so tell me why, did you have to lie
and try to make me all confused about the U.S.A.
when the fact of the matter is you just don't care
to comprehend or understand a single word I say
I don't want to have I go against I
oh let me tell you
the same old story, no factual glory
I against I against I against I
and I say I don't like it, and I know I don't want it
I against I against I against I
almighty watching, almighty watching
I against I against I against I
and I say I don't like it, and I know I don't want it
I against I against I against I
I said who's gonna tell the youth about the drugs
about the drugs, mugs, bugs, and the police thugs
about the rotten stinkin' rackets and the fantasies
around the nation, around the nations
oh baby what you gonna do
I tell you the truth is looking straight at you
I got a brass continental with a 300 Z, two color t.v.s,now a video too
I got a rest home in Jamaica for my fantasty, for my family
around the nation
around the nations
what you gonna do.

11. Quit blowin' bubbles - BITCH!!!!!

I'm jes sayin'!

[cassandra uprising]

10. My first show!

it was with HR but it still rocked. 1994? or so

:yourock:


on edit

YIKES!

the show I saw wasn't with HR, it was that other guy they had fill in when HR knocked out his manager.

[CanuckAmok]

12. Bad Brains at the SUNY Buffalo Campus (cafeteria!) was the....

...best show I have ever seen. I think it was 1986 - 20 years, and still hasn't been topped for concert experiences!

[driver8]

14. CanuckAmok -- did you go to SUNY Buffalo? I went to SUNY

Fredonia.

I wish I could have seen that show!!

[CanuckAmok]

24. Nope.

But I saw Bad Brans there. And the Beastie Boys "License to Ill" tour!

[cassandra uprising]

18. eee gats

the show that I saw wasn't with HR, it was with the other guy HL? It was the God of love tour. Is was 13 and a friend's band was opening up for them in New Haven, CT. I remember being completely blow away. I'd never seen anything like them.

[ghostsofgiants]

15. Damn, that's a pretty kickass first show.

[cassandra uprising]

20. Twas true indeed

As for as I can see, they saved me from the cheese metal I was listening to at the time.

I stood in front of the stage like this

:wow:

the entire time.

[ghostsofgiants]

21. Anything that saves a person from a life of lame metalheadedness...

Gets a thumbs up from me, haha.

[cassandra uprising]

23. Oh the pictures

It was sad very, very sad. I would post them now if they weren't at my mother's house.

[asthmaticeog]

13. .

:loveya:

[flvegan]

16. Fucking Beastie Boys

got a big start with Bad Brains and Murphey's Law.

[ghostsofgiants]

17. Yauch called Bad Brains' self-titled album "the best hardcore album ever."

At least according to the sticker on it when I was looking at it in the local music shop.

[flvegan]

19. Yup, he did.

What Yauch says, goes. Though, in a rare disagreement with MCA, I think "Pollywog Stew" is better, but then, that's me.

[Beware the Beast Man]

22. Ill-tempered Rastafarian frontmen.

[aaronbees]

25. Woo, they are great...

first big concert I went to was them playing in Portland, Oregon, at La Luna in .... 1993, I think ... that was the happiest mosh pit I've ever jumped into.

:party: :silly: :toast:

[Richard Steele]

29. "Pay to Cum" played REALLY FRIGGIN LOUD = "Bad Brains"

Changed my life the first time I heard it.
I've never been the same since, and I regret NOTHING.
