Mine has go to be Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins and RHCP cause those 3 put up some really good performances whereas most bands that sound good on records sound terrible onstage(sometimes sound but more often just shitty studio vocals). I think Eddie Veder's vocals sound the same it does live as it does on the records, the man's a true talent.
I'd add Cold, Disturbed, Queens of The Stone Age and Alice In Chains to that list too.
Velvet Revolver - Live they are just killer, being a massive gunners fan this is as good as it gets, 3 ex-gunners. Scott weiland isn't too shabby too.
Wolfmother - Seen them twice, truely a great rock experience. Crowd really gets into it.
Killswitch Engage - Awesome Heavy metal band.
Probably the three bands that stand out for me live.
Got tickets to U2 and Eric Clapton coming up, looking forward to those. Should have gotten tickets to black label society.. regretting it now.

I saw Wolfmother at the big day out in 2004 before they were classed as new age rock gods ( 
), but they were really awesome. I remember walking out of there and everybody was just like "Spread the word! wolfmother!". And look at them now. It really shows that live gigs get the fans rather than CD sales.

^I know this guy from nbalive.org. He been posting shit all the time. I remember that he once said that Tupac was alive because on the Loyal To The Game album he ''said'' Shady Aftermath or something like that and I swear it wasn't a joke, he was extremely convinced that he found some typa proof that Pac is alive. That's just one example of his shit-posting.

Well I get my LP's from HHV.It's a German netstore that sells probably everything you're looking for. However, I don't know how much shipping will be.

2Pac & Scarface - 2Face (November) 
i hate how a credit card is necessary to buy anything these days. Any other method is too slow.

The shipping costs are reasonable, but the best thing for me is that they accept COD payments
great site, thanks a lot.

If by calling me impotent, you felt better...so be it. In any case, there was no need to thank me, shall we carry on pretending as if we can be civillised or do you wish to continue calling me names via PM or MSN? I leave that one up to you.
Oh and Gundy, sorry to disappoint.
Anyways, Matt, do you have any news on any new up & coming reggae bands? It will probably be a while before Gentleman decides to release a new album.
Fri Oct 06, 2006 12:55 pm
to be honest i haven't been up to date with the music scene recently, although i do have Gentlemans new single "on we go" if your interested.

Pop King's planning his return
By Chris Lee, Times Staff Writer
MICHAEL JACKSON has kept a low profile of late: He lived in self-imposed exile in Bahrain after his June 2005 acquittal on child molestation charges, then moved to Ireland in May. But now, according to several people who have recently met with him, the King of Pop, 48, has started work on his comeback. Early word is that he's shifting away from the R&B lite that characterized his last few albums toward a more urban sound.
Talent manager Charles "Big Chuck" Stanton traveled to Ireland earlier this month with his nephew, hip-hop producer Ron "Neff U" Feemster — who has worked with Eminem and 50 Cent and is one of the track masters behind R&B phenom Ne-Yo's hit album, "In My Own Words" — after Jackson sought out Feemster's services.
Not sure what to expect, they say they encountered a musically focused and creatively fired-up Jackson. "He's ready to take over the world," Stanton says. "He's got some hot records. Will.i.am did one, Teddy Reilly. We're giving Michael a lot of edgy street records. He's putting melodies to some hard party records."
Raymone Bain, Jackson's spokeswoman, said Will.i.am and Reilly had not joined Jackson in the studio, although she said it was possible they submitted musical MP3 files for his approval.
"Michael is moving very much forward with his new music," she says. "He is readying to release an album."
In April, Jackson signed an exclusive recording deal with Bahrain-based Two Seas Records with an eye toward releasing an album in late 2007. Last week, however, he dissolved his partnership with Two Seas, putting the fate of his long-gestating Katrina relief single, "From the Bottom of My Heart," further into limbo.
Since March, Jackson has been meeting with a who's who of hip-hop big shots — 50 Cent's main turntablist DJ Whoo Kid among them.
Whoo Kid recalled eating dinner with Jackson in Bahrain for MTV News. "Mike was like, 'Whoo Kid, come sit over here,' " the DJ says in a high-pitched voice, mimicking Jackson. "I was like poinng! He was supposed to be there for like 45 minutes; he stayed for five hours. We was talking about Eminem. He was like, 'Is Eminem really retired?' I forgot that Eminem totally cremated him in one video ['Lose It'], but [Michael] didn't even bring it up. Then he started talking about 50." Later in that conversation, Whoo Kid said Jackson also mentioned a desire to collaborate with Kanye West.
According to Stanton, the singer's child molestation case is off limits. "He doesn't want to discuss that," Stanton says, who plans to return to Ireland next month. "He came through it successfully and he says he's fine. He's super-focused and we're still working."

NEW TUPAC SINGLE "UNTOUCHABLE" FEATURING KRAYZIE BONE
The new Tupac single is currently in rotation at many radio stations. The title of the track is "Untouchable" and it features Krayzie Bone who spits complete fire.
Download here - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=A2B1E308
It's not retail yet, so it's not illegal to download it.
it's pretty tight, but i think it's about the time to stop releasing old 2pac songs
EDIT: it is radio rip
EDIT2: Did you guys heard about Cassidy?
http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/154...headlines=true
Cassidy was involved in a serious car accident on Wednesday night in New Jersey.
The rapper was a passenger in an SUV en route to a studio in Yonkers, New York, when a U-Haul truck swerved into oncoming traffic and struck the SUV. The truck
crashed into the side of the vehicle that Cassidy was sitting in, according to a J Records spokesperson and members of Cassidy's camp.
Cassidy was rushed to the hospital, suffering a fractured skull. A large number of bones in the left side of his face were also broken, according to his people. Cassidy is in critical condition, is said to be breathing on his own and is undergoing a CAT scan. None of the four other passengers in the vehicle were injured.
Swizz Beatz, currently in Los Angeles, talked about the accident on radio station Power 106 on Thursday (October 5), asking listeners to pray for his friend and collaborator. Cassidy has been working on his third album for Swizz's Full Surface label, which is affiliated with J Records, for the past several months.
The rapper was released from prison in March after serving eight months. He had been convicted of involuntary manslaughter and other charges stemming from the 2005 shooting death of Desmond Hawkins (see "Cassidy Released From Jail After Serving Eight Months").
MTV News will have more on this story as further details become available.
