Man frick that damn game!!! That crap SUCKED!!!

I'm all good now though. Heading down the road to Jack Rabbits to watch Page and the boys tear it up!!! Damn Helmet just keeps on going. Fifth time in five years here in Jax. And the setlists look damn strong too.

Yep. Sounds like the Meantime tour. I saw them back then too. Both Meantime and Betty. Then went a LONG time (Like 16 years) before seeing them again in 2011 and now they hit Jax every time they're nearby it seems. I LOVE it!!!

Honestly, I thought they didn't even exist anymore after John Stanier left.

Honestly? Or trolling?

Either way is fine with me, but Kyle is actually very solid on drums. I know I know, he didn't create the beats for the classic material, and I know John is incredible... BUT, I make it a point to pay close attention to him live just because he catches heat for not being Stanier, and he does nail every single part of every older song they play, which is a lot. He's actually been in the band longer now than John was and is more than adequate.

Some people say "Oh it's not Helmet anymore without John Stanier". THAT is a total crock of shite. Stanier is great, but Page is Helmet. This is HIS band, period!!! And the dude is an icon in my book.
