Anyone familiar with the"'Crash Test Dummies"? Lyrically supremely cerebral.
One of my fav 'off the wall' bands. these selections are mostly from their best album (IMHO)from 1993
They are still alive and kickin today :)

The biggest concert in the history of the earth. Ever!Tushino airport 1.6 million people!.28 September 1991

That was an unbelievably huge concert, but according to Wikipedia, it was the *only* 5th largest concert. Apparently beat out by artists like Genesis (heck yeah!), and... Rod Stewart (wait, what?!?!?!)

Ditto sitting this one out, but my favorite band is Die Antwoord

This is one of the funniest things I have seen them do:

Timbo, I listened to CTD tons when I was younger. I was always trying to imitate his singing voice - very hard to do unless you have a really bad throat cold!
Another "off the wall" band that I like has quite a different music style, but is also very lyrically interesting; you really have to pay attention: Destroyer. They are local (to me) and have put out many albums over the years - some quite lighthearted and playful, while others are more intense.

I'm sitting this one out... but as far as bands go....

...I've been listening to this album for 20 years.




....and for Die Antwoord,

I blast Fatty Boom-Boom in my car and can only wonder what people think.

"'I'll take lot #1", thanks timbo114.

Favorite musical artist or band?

Wow, so many to choose from, like only eating one Lay's potato chip.:thinking:

Ok, if on a long road trip, I would grab Steely Dan to mellow out with and Depeche Mode for a faster pace. :rock:

I'll sit this one out, but Van Halen's 1984/Jump was my favorite. The song 1984 is the 1st song off the album by the same title and is instrumental. A lot of the times, the DJ on the radio would play both 1984 and Jump as one song on the radio since 1984 is only about a minute long. Yeah, I'm a HUGE Van Halen fan and I graduated in 1984, so that was a really good year.

My senior HS class voted "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas as our class song. The administration didn't like it and made us pick again. The funny thing is I don't remember what was selected and probably would have forgotten our pick if they just left it alone. The Streisand Effect at work again.
How could it it be that many years ago already?
