i've seen modest mouse live twice.
the only other band i've seen live twice is ani difranco.

the first time she had a 2 hour long opening act called ladysmith black mambazo.

therefore, Ladysmith Black Mambazo.

MrKneebone · « **Reply #301 on:** 13 Feb 2005, 21:43 »

Paul Simon did a bit of work with Laydysmith Black Mombazo a couple of decades ago, and popularised world music for the masses.

Therefore ... Simon and Garfunkel.

Garkunkels first name is art, as is art alexasis' of everclears. Everclear, from what I understand, is booze (we don't get it here!), George best was addicted to booze and he played for manchester united. Machester united 'doing the double' (come on you reds) song was performed with status quo.

Therefore

Status Quo

MrKneebone · « **Reply #303 on:** 14 Feb 2005, 16:33 »

Status Quo had an album called "Hello!" and Poe also had an album called "Hello." (slightly more subdued with no exclamation mark.)

Matt Sorum played Drums on Poe's album, and he was also in Guns n Roses and in ...

The Cult.

My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult were on The Crow soundtrack along with Helmet. Helmet were mentioned in QC strip no "245: Eclipsed by their own sound" ... as was ...

Slipknot.

Slipknot had a song called Only One -----> Makes me think of Only Hope, by Switchfoot.

MrKneebone · « **Reply #310 on:** 15 Feb 2005, 23:19 »

One of the members of Throbbing Gristle was named Chris Carter - the same name as the creator of the X-Files.

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds had a song on one of the X-Files albums.

emor · « **Reply #311 on:** 15 Feb 2005, 23:44 »

Nick Cave --> Microphones

the microphones sing a bitchin song about a volcano that invites a weeping lady into his mossy cave

ps, does anybody have that song, because I've seem to have LOST it somehow

MrKneebone · « **Reply #312 on:** 16 Feb 2005, 16:34 »

Can't say I've actually heard anything from the Microphones (that I know of) - are they good?

Since we're on the topic of caves.. Muse happen to have a marvellous song called cave, so let's run with:

Muse

blindsuperhero · « **Reply #313 on:** 16 Feb 2005, 16:57 »

When I saw Muse, they were supported by Hundred Reasons

Puddle of Mudd are the epitome of terrible music, a title they share with equal pioneers of tedium Starsailor. So, Starsailor.

Ooh, and Will, I tried to pm you but the thing didn't work it would seem - gah to dying computers and such!

Less Than Jake is a ska punk band, another ska punk band is Reel Big Fish

catflea · « **Reply #320 on:** 17 Feb 2005, 08:33 »

reel big fish did a song called "she has a girlfriend now" which was about a girl ditching her bloke for a Lady. Spunge did a song along the same lines (but I can't remember what its called now)

on saturday, i got alkaline trio stuck in my head, followed by keane

Unosuke · « **Reply #323 on:** 17 Feb 2005, 10:09 »

the name keane sounds like keanu as in keanu reeves, he was in a band called Dogstar

muffy · « **Reply #324 on:** 17 Feb 2005, 10:10 »

Keane illicit the same response from people as Travis and Coldplay did a couple of years ago (a sort of mocking indifference). Travis had a song called 'why does it always rain on me'. I put this down to the fact that him upstairs was slowly trying to drown the guy, but that's just me. Another person who has been blighted by being rained on (the clouds opened as he took to the stage at a festival, the rest of the band remained dry) was Elliott Smith.
So, Elliott Smith.

Edit - oops, I spend too long typing these things - sorry!

supervixen024 · « **Reply #325 on:** 17 Feb 2005, 10:41 »

My Spanish TA is in a band that sounds like Elliot Smith, and today he had us listen to a Spanish Indie band by the name of Maga.

So, Maga.

Theres a recordshop in brighton called resident that stocks local bands releases. A good localband is silvermaker (who live just down the road in fact)

Silvermaker sounds much like silverchair

Silverchair - Alice in Chains released a track called 'Angry Chair'. (I am aware of my obsession and I am currently taking classes to beat it).

My friend also has an unhealthy obsession with Alice in Chains - another band she obsesses over (much like someone else on this board

Uriah Heep reminds me of the crapper for some reason.

crappers are also known as johns. bad ones can be pretty rotton -> Johnny Rotten -> Sex Pistols

MrKneebone · « **Reply #345 on:** 20 Feb 2005, 17:01 »

The Sex Pistols were from the UK >>

on the topic of the UK, Pistol rhymes with Bristol, and a very chilled out groovy outfit by the name of Portishead hail from there.

Portishead.
