Favorite live band
If you had to pick just one, who would be your favorite live band? I've seen more bands then I could ever hope to remember over the years, but if I
had to pick one it would be the Dayglo Abortions. Every time I see them I have a blast. It's a great atmosphere, lots of fun with no bullshit.
Booze everywhere, awesome circle pits, everybody singing along. Before I became the broken-down old man I am, the one song that sent me on a tear
through the pit was "Proud to Be Canadian." There have been a lot of songs over the years that I love to go off to, but that song live always sent me
into new levels of crazy. I have so many great memories from all the Dayglo's shows I've seen over the years. I rarely ever go to shows anymore, but
the Dayglo's are one of only a few bands I'll still leave the house for.

Murphy's Law had always been a good time for me.
It's usually a bunch of drunken has beens or never beenslike myself slurring up the lyrics of 25 year old songs about panty raids and spilling PBR on
one another.
It usually reminds me that there are some things in the world worth living for.

I agree with this except for the fact that the last few times Ive seen them they havent been up to par. Im not sure if Jimmy is to old, or if the
backing band of young guys havent been up to par or if the whole thing has just gotten old for me. In the past I LOVED Murphys Law shows (and Ive
always been sxe). I would pound on the stage, sing along and go nuts, but the last few times just havent been the same.
Other than ML, I would say that BFB was great everytime I saw them... obviously SLAPSHOT is on the top of my list too. Seeing the Bosstones used to be
pretty amazing, but I havent seen them in years. I think The Welch Boys are probably one of the newer bands that I always have a good time seeing.

now that you mention it, the last time i saw ML it was kind of weak.
Harley was playing drums and there were hardly anyone there.
bummer.
i missed out on a lot of the bands i dig the most just due to the fact i was a lil squirt when they were at their peak.

I've seen a lot of amazing shows, but one band that has never let me down is The Briefs. SUPER high energy and non-stop fun. Street Dogs are right up
there as well, those guys have such amazing stage presence.

ANTiSEEN by far.I've seen these guys play a hundred times and I have never NEVER seen a bad show.They always give 100% at every show.Pure Rock n Roll
fury.
Hank III & Assjack...every show is top notch.He plays non stop for at least 2 hours straight...from country to hellbilly to full blown metal....and
after the show,instead of running back stage,he stands at the front of the stage and shakes hands and takes pics until the last person leaves.Hank III
shows are always a good time.
I gotta say Murphys Law as well....This was probably the first REAL hc band I ever seen live,and I've only seen them about 4 or 5 times....but each
show was a drunken blast.

Poison and Sick Of It All
Tied. Both bring out two different sides of me. For that reason both are perfect live.

Hmmm. SOIA is probably literally the best I've ever seen. But back in the day Burn It Down from Indianapolis always put on a good show no matter where
I saw them. Be it a club, an old theater turned club, a record store or a church basement with no working PA... it was good times. They are probably
not most people's style around these parts though.

Definitely ain't the greatest band, and I don't own a single thing they've recorded. But that's one fucking hilarious show!

Sick of it All for sure.
I wish I could say Blood For Blood but the last time I saw them it was a really short set and they were all wasted, it sounded like shit.
Sick of it All have never been a let down and always play their hardest every time they get on stage.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

great.
