[@ebozyn]

When i was a teenager i had a bunch of metal cassette tapes i bought crossover, 4 of a kind and thrash zone. I used to sit in my room for hours trying to figure out guitar riffs. loved it. some family members got together had a talk, they thought this type of music was making me anti social and "suicidal" i wasn't either. i was just really getting into the music and practicing guitar. they tool ALL of my tapes. i was very upset to say the least. then i said F it. i scrounged up some cash and bought Thrash Zone on CD. and cranked that shit in the house. i still have the very same CD in my car today. it has been over 30 years . still crank it up sometimes when driving to work. still lovin' it.

[@djtripnosys]

Mine did the same over "..And Justice for All'. Trashed my entire collection. I've replaced mostly all of them by now, but a lot of that would be worth money now. I had bootlegs, bands that are broken up and out of print...just sad. I raised my kids better. We all jam each others music together. We all make music together.

Fun fact, The lowest ever recorded pH level of rain in the United States was around 1.8. This extremely acidic rain was recorded in 1974 in West Virginia. Acid rain with such a low pH is comparable in acidity to vinegar.

@Drew K Not really. I talk to Kurt and Spike semi-regular, and they have barely broke even, or at best didn't have to work a day job the whole time. They do better now than when they started, fer shure, but by my estimates, they each make about what I do as a farm worker per year via touring. Not to mention Spike's HUGE medical bills from his cancer treatments.

Had a friend named Scott. We saw DRI back in 1990 at the Showcase in San Antonio. He bought a white tour shirt and wore it throughout the show. At the end of the show from a night in the pit he had a huge fucking footprint right in the middle of the back of it. He refused to wash it because he didn't want that footprint to go away. Awesome show. Still one of my all-time favorites.

DRI shows are always such a mix of people...you got the hardcore/punks, the metal heads, the crossover folks, skaters, skinheads of both persuasions and anyone else curious to see what's going on. I've seen DRI so many times, from the early 90's to recent times. The one thing that remains a constant is that DRI is consistently good. You never get shortchanged at a DRI show, and if you feel that you did, that's on you.

[@Gen965]

What about that other crossover Band S.O.D? But now that guy is a guitarist for that band Anthrax. His name is Scott Ian.

[@yuliusvitho9947]

clearly i can hear all the instruments....

[@allatoss]

The organ played by almighty Jon Lord seems abscent though. The intro futures desperately horny male seagulls and panflutes blown by demonically possessed and hypocritical semi-catholics with irish heritage. The producer left that intro out of the demo recordings from late '88. Jon Lord slowly rots in the gutters of Livonia, Michigan, birthplace of Mike Modano. The first overall draft pick of the draft in '88 (NHL) by the North stars, later relocated to Dallas, renamed to Stars, to avoid to much brain use. Drafted as a pure offensive center he later translated to a 2-way forward (not referring to his sexual preferences) under the guidance of Kevin Hitchc**k. The lord of the organ (Jon Lord) still grieves his loss of the intro. Schizophrenia brought him to hell, Ridperidon to a imagined heaven. Good song though.
