This may be the end of it (plus Incubus, who I've seen three times) -- it was a weird coincidence that these bands were paired together in the first round.

Back in the late '90's I'd go see any band that rolled through town, pretty much -- I just enjoyed the social and cultural experience of going to concerts, and tickets weren't unjustifiably expensive. I got pickier and snootier about it a few years later, but in my teens I was pretty open to giving all this stuff a fair shot.

This tournament is going to result in Kevin Davis slowly realizing that he loves nu-metal

You guys should do a Nu Metal cover of Elvis Costello songs.

Shimmer is bland and forgettable but it's so much better than that other song.

I think the only band on the list that I actually saw was Staind. Same show featured Rammstein, Fear Factory, and Clutch.

Zero for me. Hoobastank opened for Velvet Revolver the one time I saw VR. I showed up at the venue as Hoobastank was playing “The Reason” which ended up being their last song. I only heard them playing it, never saw them on stage. Then VR went on to play the worst show I’ve even seen. :roll:

I've seen Breaking Benjamin, Chevelle, Godsmack, Korn, Slipknot and System of a Down. Though Breaking Benjamin and Chevelle were opening that Korn concert, Godsmack were opening for Metallica and Slipknot was at Ozzfest.

Definitely this, wish they would play within a thousand miles of me again so I could see them a second time.
