You know what? I'm mistaken....was it Budgie? I'm remembering Sweet Savage but now I don't trust myself lol

I think it was Budgie. Either way, NOT Metallica (originally)
You’re right…IIRC…Budgie…that cassette was stuck in the auto reverse deck that was in the parts delivery truck I drove for a local parts store when I was a kid…wasn’t mine…my copy was in my car. For a year, that’s what I listened to while working…and only that…

I have a similar story about a certain Freightliner truck that had a crappy Pioneer CD deck that ate a homemade Slayer CD with both South of Heaven and Reign in Blood on it. All I heard every day at work for about a year as well lol

It was cool at first....but then.....ugh lol

My wife's car seems to have 4 Dave Matthews Band Cds "stuck" in the deck on rotation for oh, about 3 years now give or take. I'm thinking of either taking an axe to it like Jack Torrence or leaping out of the door in motion next time.

She gave me grief for having Iron Maiden Senjuitsu in my truck for about 2 months but this is seemingly just fine for her to keeping swapping around the same 4 played out albums. Who could POSSIBLY ever get tired of hearing a mountain goat spurting out beautiful lines such as

"I was there when I saw the bear eat his own head, thought it was candy
Everything goes in the end
Knock, knock, on the door, who's it for? There's nobody in here
Look in the mirror my friend"

...........

Think I'll go sharpen the axe this afternoon

Oh boy....that sucks lol

It's weird: Dave Matthews comes here almost every year, puts on a 3 day show. It's huge.

And the crowd is also the rowdiest we get. Strangely, riots at Dave Matthews is about as common as when RATM used to come by. I just don't understand it, he's not some extreme metal act, or anything close to a group like RATM, but people just go nuts.

I'm from a town of less than 8000 people. This stuff is unheard of around here lol

People come to our huge venue and think they're way out in the desert, beyond the law, and all that nonsense, overrun town nearly every weekend all summer long. No stranger to music related weirdness, but I cannot figure out WHY Dave's following is as crazy as they are!

Lol that's pretty weird honestly, that he drives up audiences that much. Musically speaking, he's like eating a pot brownie so hearing about pandemonium in the crowd is kinda funny.

My wife is already buying tickets to some show of his to a show outside of Pittsburgh this June. I reluctantly agreed to go since she did go with me to some Maiden concerts in the past. But, thru divine intervention we'll call it: her mom ( who's the person who turned her on to Dave Matthews in the first place and is thus responsible for this atrocity) called her a few days ago and said " Let's just you and me go! It'll be a fun mother/daughter day!!!".

So, here's to my mother-in-law: thanks for jumping on this grenade for me!!

I work with a guy who follows DM like he is the Greatful Dead, travels all over to see him. Freeking wierd.
 
Here’s a twist on Name That Riff. Was in the studio yesterday going through parts for an up coming project when this song comes on the radio. Have heard it hundreds of times, but this time the opening riff, played on a 12 string, caught my attention. So I got this one off the wall, tuned it up (haven’t played it in months), and down loaded the TAB.

Now you guys gotta play the TAB to figure it out ! I got it down after a few minutes. Fun picking exercise too !

I have been behind on this. I noticed it was Bon Jovi DOA as well looking at it.
