| Three Great Bands When it comes to my daily dose of mellow classic rock i go straight to the floyd. but when i need a break from my usual classic rock listenings, i like some other great bands. Metallica, Smashing Pumpkins, and Nirvana are my favorite newer/heavier bands. I guess the last two aren't so much heavy, but if you want to talk about these three bands, talk about them here.  |

| Re: Three Great Bands Out of those three, I am only familiar with the Pumpkins and Metallica. I heard a Metallica live CD with an orchestra, and I thought that was pretty good. I'm starting to get into Pumpkins a bit, and I actually think they are better when not so heavy, though Bullet w/ Butterfly Wings is one of their best songs. It's also kind of neat that one of Billy Corgan's main influences was Pink Floyd. In fact, I heard that he tried to make Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness "The Wall of the 90's" Though I don't think it got to that level. Anyone see him play "Wish You Were Here" with Floyd at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony? |

| Re: Three Great Bands Nirvana did kind of bring back the old ritual of smashing up instruments, though. That's how I link them to the Who in my mind. Though musically, not even close. |

| Re: Three Great Bands I'm not saying I don't like them, it's just a lot of their stuff kind sounds alike and gets old. But smashing instruments is a big plus.

| Re: Three Great Bands I remember when the bassist got hit with his bass at the MTV Video Music Awards. Looked like it hurt. |

| Re: Three Great Bands He just tossed it in the air and it came crashing on him, right?

| Re: Three Great Bands I rarely saw that show. What was the gag?

| Re: Three Great Bands That LEGO video was awesome. I used to make homemade LEGO movies when I was younger, and they were pretty wacky. Most didn't have much of a plot. We had one that started out as a western, but ended as a Beatles video. Another was with a Doom style video of a guy shooting Dr Who characters. Others were a bit more brutal looking, but funny. |
