Great band. I think I'll go (legally) download Throwing Copper.

I think the lead singer is ultra-talented and has an awesome singing voice.

Is this the same band that had a hit called "Lightening Flashes" or something like that? If it is then that is the only song I know of by them. i guess they are ok.

Lightning Crashes, yeah. Good song.

They've had so many awesome songs. They rock for sure.

Actually saw Live do a live show in the late 90's. They sound just as good in person.

 

[SlitheryDee]

Live rocks.

I saw them at Voodoofest in New Orleans a few years ago. The lead singer came out during The Counting Crows set and did a few songs with them. It was quite cool.

after they turned all god-fearing it was much less entertaining

THey had some good music back in the 90's but I haven't really paid any attention to them since then.

I think they're great but their albums are like a pile of shyte with some golden nuggets thrown in, if you dig enough you can find so good stuff.

They Rock

This is one of those bands that I used to really like, but for some reason they just did not stand the test of time for me. I remember listening to my Throwing Copper cassette until the tape snapped; I used to love the band. Now I just can't stand them.

Maybe my tastes have changed, but there are plenty of other bands that I used to love and still do. Whatever the reason, I think they had their moment in the sun, but I don't really see them being held up as one of rock's greats in the long run.

They were alright. I liked a couple of their songs.

I don't know, they seem to like it. 🙂

Probably one of the best bands of the mid 90's

Good post. I know I had some bands that I really loved that have since fallen off the face of the earth.
