I remember Flotsam at the Col Ballroom; Megadeth; Nirvana (ugh); there are more but my brain is kind of foggy. was Primus up there at one point? I know I saw them in IC during Pork Soda tour...Grim Reaper/Helloween...its a pretty long list once I think about it. good times My band opened for Flotsam at the Col show you were at...1990.

No problem Gentlemen, my pleasure! I am proud to say, I was at the forefront of Thrash metal's inception. I saw all the great bands (in small club settings) that went on to be Metal Gods, when I was a kid. Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Pantera, Anthrax, Exodus etc... I saw Anthrax (Among the living) backed up by Metal Church at the same club in Boston...Good Times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members V-man Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Awesome thread. I caught them for the first time in 1990 with Priest and shortly thereafter at Clash of the Titans where we booed Alice 'N Chains off stage because nobody knew (or cared) who they were and they weren't hard enough for our tastes.

Members Inca Roads Posted February 16, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 we booed Alice 'N Chains off stage because nobody knew (or cared) who they were NOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo! Not Chains, I got much love 4 them. I gotta say, I saw Megadeth a year or so ago on the Heaven and Hell tour and they "STILL" Killed it!! They were so tight, Dave still amazes me how he can play this, off time, complicated rhythm and still sing the song, spot on, he's great! I thought Glenn Drover was awesome too, he nailed all the solo's including Friedman's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cage77 Posted February 17, 2009 Members Share Posted February 17, 2009 Yeah, I was there as well....pretty sure it wasn't Flotsam there (I have only seen them once when a band I was in opened for them), I know KORN was there I think (Fieldy fell on my wife out in the crowd after they played and he was dicking around in the crowd). Couldn't tell you if there was another band on the bill at the moment, if there was I don't remember who it was. I have a couple of my tickets and the dates are 1993 and 1995. Probably the 93 show right? I had the misery of seeing this lineup in '95 in Springfield or Decatur (a long time has gone by). I was, and still am, a huge Megadeth fan. Korn had just recently hit the scene but we weren't fans to say the least. The bagpipes and kilt one the first song was pretty cool. Flotsam was cool, but Megadeth took the show. The misery came into the fact that they played in a crap town, to a crappier audience, in a crap room. The only thing that would have been worse was if they were to play down in Champaign at the Assembly Hall. They should have made the extra hour drive to Peoria and played the Civic Center. Other than that....great pics to the OP!! Brandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
