Can only see them once because Ticketmaster adds another $36 in fees, but this only shows up after you've managed to get through the queue and if you think about it too long, you'll lose your spot.

Ah shit, sorry, they accidentally sold your tickets on their scalper site for $1244 (plus fees and taxes), but don't worry, you'll get a refund.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

If I should ever find myself with tickets for them I'll remember you, Macaroni Ninja.

Damn it. You beat me to posting this. Seen em in concert like 20ish years ago, too. They were fantastic.

I'll just book AAF for 10 consecutive shows where they're only allowed to play the smooth criminal cover.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 9 months ago

This and SOAD twice are the only 2 correct answers

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

One AAF concert and the rest is spent on $5 shots for every time he says "Talk to the Chewbacca! Hoo!" in Smooth Criminal.

I'm kind of fond of some of their other tracks, but it doesn't matter if I'm knocked out.

A SOAD + Deftones + AAF concert would fucking slap.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I was looking at it and it's the only correct answer. Those are the only bands from that era that I go back to for more than just a nostalgia hit.

That’s my go to but another great lineup would be Slipknot, Mudvayne, and Static X/Drowning Pool.

I get the joke, but there are so many worse bands that would have been funnier lol I think a lot of people would pay good money to see Slipknot, SOAD and Deftones all in one show! Static X is still really good too!

[–] Buddahriffic 18 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's a shitpost intended to troll metal fans. But I think most instead got distracted by the question and aren't paying much attention to the troll itself. The values might be another attempt at inducing rage.

Sorry, but my rage is being saved for the machine.

Are you still just a rat in a cage, though?

[–] Buddahriffic 6 points 9 months ago

Yes, but that cage is your head and I turn a wheel connected to your guts and all your faults are in me.

No Linkin Park? (before they gave up nu-metal)

Putting System and Deftones in the list is and always was weird to me. These are also the only ones I listen to so perhaps I'm not exactly objective.

[–] Adulated_Aspersion 26 points 9 months ago

The only correct answer is System of a Down followed by System of a Down.

[–] vegskret 25 points 9 months ago

Easy: System of a Down twice

[–] PP_BOY_ 23 points 9 months ago

Deftones being below Slipknot should be a crime

[–] [email protected] 22 points 9 months ago

Honesty, understandable: I partly like about half of those listed... But I prefer listening to recordings at non-deafening volumes while not being surrounded by a hell lot of humans. Sucks to be an introvert, I guess.

[–] model_tar_gz 22 points 9 months ago

SOAD twice.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago

Those bands are rad bro, why you keeping $100?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 9 months ago

System of a Down, Static-X, Mushroomhead, and Alien Ant Farm would be one hell of a show

[–] Nastybutler 15 points 9 months ago

SOAD, Deftones, and use the $10 left to cover half of a beer.

[–] banichan 13 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'll take Static-X if they're using a hologram of Wayne

[–] [email protected] 25 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

The surviving members have actually been touring with Edsel Dope (from Dope) as their vocalist under the stage name “Xer0”

[–] [email protected] 18 points 9 months ago

And honestly, he's honouring Wayne's memory, he's perfect for the band and does it justice.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

System and Deftones, and a packet of roasted peanuts? Okay, sounds good

All the others can kick rocks though

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'd pick Drowning Pool just to bring the lead singer back to life.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

$20 for necromancy is a cheap price indeed

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago

SOAD and keep the other $50

If only concerts tickets were really this cheap. I saw TOOL not too long ago and it was ~$500 for two mediocre tickets.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Idk if I'm old, or poor, or both

But if I had $500 for a concert - I would just buy $400 in audio equipment, and a $100 in drugs and call it a night in.

Lol, most of these acts have watered down over the years.

Mudvayne is only happening because Hellyeah is mostly done after Vinnie Paul's death. Not sure how they'll be, if they'll be anything.
Korn has been sucking.
Slipknot is a little unstable right now.
System of a Down isn't really doing much and Serj Tankian hasn't been that interested in rejoining the band.
Deftones is solid.
Limp Bizkit is a has been, also fuck Fred Durst.
Disturbed is just okay.
Papa Roach is so-so.
Static-X is just a tribute act these days.
Drowning Pool lost a lot of relevancy.
Mushroomhead seem to be doing fine.
Alien Ant Farm is still doing something but they're so-so. One hit wonder.
CrazyTown is more or less dead.
Ill Nino is just up in the air.

[–] cowfodder 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Saw Mudvayne last year with Coal Chamber, GWAR, Nonpoint, and Butcher Babies and they fucking killed it for like 90 minutes straight.

Shouldn't our budget be $150? There are some sacrifices I'm not willing to make!

Im a normie so disturbed and i keep the rest.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

I'd take system of a down and parking.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

Deftones isn't a nu-metal band, and I'd arguably say the same about soad who did its own weird thing. I'd also watch those two over anything else

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I've paid £50 to see Korn this year. Tickets are now going for £200.

[–] frickineh 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I saw them for free once because my job gave me tickets and they were good. It was a fun time. 🤷‍♀️

My first concert was Papa Roach. Put me off numetal entirely.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

Bully memes are cool now

[–] EnderMB 5 points 9 months ago

SOAD, Deftones, and AAF - as long as I can pick the setlist. In reverse order would be a phenomenal line up too.

[–] DigitalTraveler42 5 points 9 months ago

System, Deftones, and Il Nino, perfection.
