Oh Alice in Chains is my favorite band of all time. Have their logo tatted on my shoulder. I saw Megadeth on tour recently, having not been a listener. They blew me away. I was headbanging for the entire 2 hours they played πŸ˜‚

Alice in Chains is my favorite band too! I love their vocal harmonization and use of dissonance. It's unique and hits the feelings perfectly.

Also, I got to meet MegaDeth during their Trust Tour in 99/00.

Yep, nobody sounds like AiC.

That's awesome that you got to meet Megadeth. Were your palms getting wet?

Wet? I was sweating bulleeeeeeets!

The entire venue sang every word to that song, it was magical

🀘hell yeah🀘 I bet that was awesome. Hundreds of people all feeling the same and amping each other up in synergy.

Megadeth was really nice in person. There was a line to meet the band, but Dave Mustaine made sure I had the opportunity to ask questions and have a conversation with him. I didn't expect that, was a bit nervous, and didn't want to bother him, so I said I I had nothing to ask and thanked him. The entire band signed my copy of Trust too!

I saw (not met) Alice in Chains, but it was after the two losses, so that's still in the air at the concert :/

I also met Dino from Fear Factory and he passed a joint with me and my friend outside his tour bus.

And I met Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley from KISS at an event they held for veterans, and Paul signed my guitar. I have it on a stand in my music room.

Have you met any bands?

Not yet man, it gets more and more expensive to have those opportunities nowadays. I'm hoping to save up for that someday. For now, I'm content just seeing my favorite bands play lol.
