Damn that is a nice list Idelhanz!

[John Schuller]

sadcorps,did you see all melvins lineups? 

....and ask him if Dale played drums with Plainfield when they supported......

I missed the Joe Preston lineup. I don't know what the fuck I was doing or thinking during that time, because I did buy Lysol and the solo albums when they came out. It is something I will regret for the rest of my life.

But I have seen all of the other main lineups. Did not see Tom Flynn or Billy Anderson in Melvins - that would have ruled! But I did get to play in a band with Billy Anderson (ASVA) so that was close enough for me!!!

When I saw Plainfield, Dale did not play drums. However, Trey Spruance was on guitar and Smelly Mustafa was on vocals. Once I ate dinner with Trey and Smelly and told them how rad the show was and how the whole time Buzz and Dale were at the side of the stage with evil laughter!!! Smelly was an evil hillbilly when I saw Plainfield. But when I ate dinner with him he was a really nice clean cut real estate agent. Fucking awesome dinner that was.

I did get to see Dale play drums with Nirvana (at the time called Ted Ed Fred). That was quite an amazing show.

88 shows between us Jules! Hell yes!

[Idlehanz]

Damn that is a nice list Idelhanz!

Thanks!  I still regret the time I missed between 2002 and 2005. but life wasn't cooperating with me, and it is what it is.

[Dumpster D]

MELVINS-with the band Shunt opening-Toronto 2000-@ the Guverment (best and LOUDEST show Ive ever been to since)

Melvins-opening for MELVINS-Victoriaville Fimav-2007 (Mind numbingly well played set)  Met Buzz loading out the next morning because we ended up in the same hotel as them..Jared stared at me with discontent when I picked up a cigarette butt in front of him and proceeded to smoke it. Buzz Was Super cool and Very nice indeed!!! Truly you are a king of kings!!! 

Melvins-opening for MELVINS-sept-2010 Opera house (or was it 2011, I dont remember BSM tour) Sound guy had the mix out of whack in the low end a little. 

Melvins Lite-Opening for melvins (and with the air conditioners working this time) Opera house-June 2012 (Very Excellent sound thanks to Cliff behind the board) Again, Apologies to Buzz, I think a little pot smoke got blown his way Luckily the fan of his helped disperse it, I really hadnt meant for that to happen, Sorry, I permit thee one swift Kick in my Ass for my impudence your grace! Dale Stole the show at the end and Trevors solo was Astounding!!! Buzz played like a Tight rope Walker dances across the Grand canyon! 

Melvins LiteW Retox opening-Hamilton @ club absinthe, The most small intimate melvins experience I had the privellage of attending. (A day fit for a king!!! got served free beer, FREE BEER!!! down the street before the show, Talked with Dale, and gave a tip of the Hat to Trevors Killer bass, and met Flutter and Bigjim!, followed the Melvins as they went on, to cut through the Crowd to find a good spot in the audience I was the king of the world!  plus I smelled Terrible and had a nice big spot to stand all by myself to enjoy the show in peace.

[Schnabster]

My-giglist-with-The Melvins-schlong-is-bigger-than-yours! It`s quality, not quantity that counts, boys, and Schnab has most probably witnessed the most shellshocking gigs, so just have your Marathon, I settle with picking out the gold! Koko, Rockefeller in Oslo and Melvins at Brixton, London was the best ever!
