The 1st time was the absolute best though, since it was like a dream come true to finally get soaked in miscellaneous colored fluids. Municipal Waste, anywhere except the Palladium. They easily have and cause the most fun out of any band, ever. . Agreed. I was like 15 the first I saw GWAR, and its still one of most memorable concerts. Municipal Waste shows are always a blast. Saw them with GWAR twice |

| _______________________________________ [Sep 20,2008 8:43am - watchmaker666 ""] Like the rest of you guys too many to list but two shows that stick out in my mind are Voi-Vod, Soundgarden and Faith no more at the paridice all bands were incredible and we made it throught a blizzard to see it, no fucking way was I was missing that show I knew back then that this was one of those shows that I would be talking about 20 years later. Also the Grindcrusher tour at the channel, Godflesh ended up headlining because their drum machine broke the night before so they were programing it while all the other bands played, by the time they went on the room emptied and I remeber thinking to my self the people that took off are fucking retarted, this is amazing! |

It was like war and all the theater seats were ripped out and just hordes of fans rushgin the stage and standing on seats and other people.. That was just when they opened up with South of heaven an then the chaos just sprung! Just Hellish!!! Nothing could ever compete for me no matter what club I have ever been at.
