bouche Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I noticed this morning that the Brian Jonestown Massacre is playing at Phoenix tomorrow night, June 2nd. Is that Anton guy still swearing at his audience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 It's slightly edgy, it's clever, it's memorable. All the things that make up a good name for a band, brand, etc.Schwa, do you like their music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak By Night Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I know it's been said before, but I completely agree with AD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaggyBalls Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) They're amongst the best neo-psychedelic rock bands.Great records, lots of personal strife/drama.give them a listen. It might not be your thing but you might get something out of it.If you don't watch the movie 'dig' then you'll probably like them a lot more.

Northern Wish Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 never heard it. i'll likely give it a pass.Nothing like judging a book by its cover.The name is pretty appropriate considering the lead singer treads a line somewhere in between delicately imbalanced (Brian Jones) and an all consuming cult leader.Your right Schwa hundreds died that day , a severe event . I remember that day. That name sucks.I don't think they are in any way glamourizing Jones or what he did.....Do you think Jerry Bob and the boys really thought being dead was so great?

organicmama Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Concert bleeding rocked! I still have a second hand weed smoke hangover. How can you not enjoy a band with that many guitars. There were a lot of douches at the concert though-I had a girl spill her beer twice down the front of my dress-someone actually pulled my ponytail from behind-and some girl kept running through the crowd shoving people out of her way.

Schwa. Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 you guys get to think what you want, and so do i. I'm not getting sucked into some sort of debate on this.i dislike the name and there it stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 If you don't watch the movie 'dig' then you'll probably like them a lot more.I'd argue the opposite.Schwa, why are you being a disappointing little child? Are you really saying that a band's name is enough for you to discount them completely? Don't you like Umphrey's McGee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwa. Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 no need to name call. Umphyrey's McGee doesn't reference the death of 200+ people.now that i know my opinion on the name of a band effects you all so greatly, i plan to hate many more bands....starting with the Hold Steady.
