Melvins Discussion / Re: Where & when did you first hear The Melvins?

« on: September 30, 2019, 07:32:40 PM »

Still have the ticket to this show in my The Maggot CD case.

nice. i was at this^ show.  i brought a girl i was kinda sorta seeing and for her the gig was.... overwhelming. she wasn't used to that level of heaviness.  shows in that room were notoriously loud, and that night was no exception of course.*

wasn't my first melvins show tho. i caught em in 97 and 95.  not really sure how i got into melvins at first.  i have a vague memory of impulse-buying 'bullhead' at kim's on bleecker. that might've been the conversion





(*loudest show i ever saw in my life was six finger satellite at the knitting factory nyc)

sadcorps, you were at this^ nye show, right?  did dale play drums with redd kross? my memories of that night are a bit haaaaazy...

got my tix for the troubadour. part of me wishes it was at a different spot, since i've seen melvins at the troub six times already.  but it's hard to complain. it's one of the great venues on the planet.

good show. buzzo was in the house and i kept hoping he'd get up on stage and they'd kick into the bit or something. no such luck. the black sabbath stuff was pretty fun
