No, I haven't. BUT, I will look it up. Thanks for the info.

I like to go to Matt Burns' (313) acoustic show and yell "Slayer "

He still hasn't played me any yet..... Come to think of it, he hasn't played me any Overkill either.

He's very good by the way!

slayer sucks ass

Yes but you like it!

.....about as much as I like a root canal. Ooooops offended the metal pagers

Yeah Steve, And unfortunately, it seems that RockPage is quickly being overrun by "metal" music enthusiasts.

Most of the die-hard (and entertaining) posters have faded away. I usually check-in with RP once a day, but it's just not interesting anymore.

Oh well, in the words of the all seeing mystics (Steely Dan) from their song "Kid Charlemagne",

"All those day-glo freaks who used to paint their face, they've joined the human race - some things will never change".

I think most everybody knows that "Mustang Sally" & "Brown-Eyed Girl" have to be the most requested songs around this area & have been for years. And really, who actually thinks that any bar band is gonna play Slayer? I've heard this & it's just to heckle the band or to test the group's sense of humor. I seriously doubt that the person or persons making that request even knows the name of even 1 Slayer song - I don't. Slayer has to have immense talent to play that brand of material. I'm just not into it.

"Jerry was a Race Car Driver" by Primus. I swear if one more person requests that...

L L!!!

I love that song.

Fixed your typo.

I used to get the occasional Johnny Cash request back when I played metal. Who'd have known the metal crowd would actually dig that for real now?
You guys are lucky to have not played in a 90's country band (which was really country-flavored rock and pop, don't get me started on what constitutes real country music). I've heard sooooo many requests for Achey Breaky Heart, The Shake, and Friends In Low Places. Old Time Rock & Roll and Margaritaville still top my list, though.
Plus, I hate requests for chick songs. Really, don't let the man-boobs fool ya, downstairs, I look like a flesh-colored baseball bat with a urethra. --------->JMS

We actually got two requests last Saturday for The Electric Boogie by Marcia Griffiths. (Of course, most people think the name of the song is The Electric Slide). We have gotten that request before. Fortunately, I always carry a CD of songs like that and I was able to offer to play it on our break and made them happy. Regardless, we don't do that song or any songs sung by females because we would not sound very good doing them. We have also gotten requests for Madonna, Pat Benatar, and others. People think 3 guys can sound like any song they want.

We've been known to bust out the Hokie Pokie during the middle bridge section of Rebel Yell by Billy Idol. Now that's Rock n' Rollin' to the extreme.
