i just got back from a local h show, and listen to me. if you want to rock, go see them. if you ever have a chance to see them, TAKE IT. it's fucking rowdy. i feel awesome. they got shut down for saying fuck too much, but they only shut down the main speakers, so their roadie/friends turned their monitors towards the crowd and kept playing. it was awesome |

Speaking of Local H, here's an auction on eBay to bid on a private concert by them. You can have it in your living room if you want! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=89436556 2 |

wow, but the fuckign bid is up to 9 grand |
||||||||
|

i used to love local h, i thought their 2nd and 3rd albums were amazing. not a fan of their 1st or latest tho, too bland. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
dude, the first album is fucking great! i didn't like it at first, but as i kept listening to it, it got better and better. i haven't heard the new one, really. just some of the tracks live, but they were pretty good. |
||||||||

|
Someone wanna enlighten me on this band? Music style, good album? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they're just rock. no other way to put it. back in the day they toured with everclear, but everclear kicked them off the tour because they wore the crowd out. i'd suggest either as good as dead or pack up the cats to start with |

who's my avatar? oh yeah, all right! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
btw, Here Comes the Zoo, there new CD, is just the same. Pure rock. No appologies, no bullshit, just energetic rock. Yeah, I was gunna post about the ebay auction, I was gunna get together with other H fans to try and get them in the Bay Area, but $9,000+ is steep. Anyway, for more info |

damn dude, you fucked it up. it's all right, oh yeah. the show was fucking great though. i made a sign that says "LOCAL H MAKES MY NIPPLES HARD" but it was small, but scott still saw it, he was squinting and then he looked at me real wierd. |

Chicago's very own.. Are they still a two man band? For those who aren't familiar with them, you might remember some years back they had a couple of hits "As good as dead" and "Eddie Vedder" "If I were Eddie Vedder would you like me any better?" --one of the best lyrics ever written. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Err, not "As good as dead" I mean "Bound for the floor", the former was the album title. |

I was actually quoting "Son of Cha" from HCTZ :-) "Creeping up on middle age, Chasing down the latest craze, Oh Yeah, All right!" either way, great to see a Local fan on the board, would that they come to the Bay Area, or even the left coast at some point. You're lucky, they rock Chicago all the time |

Steve, Joe left, but Scott got Brian St. Clair from TripleFastAction. He rocks the set nice hard and steady. btw, for anyone wondering, Scott (the guy who is my avatar) uses a really unique quitar. The third pickup is actually a bass pickup, so he is effectivly playing the bass and lead guitar at the same time. For live shows they oft have a second guitarist though. It's a fine set up if you ask me |
||||||||
|
|

it's actually a tad more complicated than that... he's got the bass pick up placed so that it only picks up the first two strings. then he has two out puts on his guitar, one goes to his bass amp, one to the guitar amp. then he has two pedals, they basicall cut off sound, so if he has a part with only bass, he can cut the guitar out, and vise versa |

hey man, do you have the 92 demos? i missed my chance to get it :/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i saw local h live end of last year on the six days to sunday tour only $6 it was well worth it. ive got their 4 cds and i think their 1st cd is worst of them though it is pretty decent. the new 1 is very cool though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just listened to ham fisted again, and i have no idea how any of you could think it's bad. it's a generally good album! christ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
got all their albums, including the half life EP and the 92 demos, fucking awesome rock band! HCTZ was an awesome album. i would love to see them live |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
the guy Joe who used to be in local h is now in the Black Panels. havent heard them yet has anyone? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nothing from them, it was hard to find out even what band he was now in, so they seem pretty unknown or slow to move. oh, and will some more kids please buy and enjoy Here Comes the Zoo, it's really quite good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've got a bonus cd with picking up the cats that has a cover of an ACDC song. you guys heard that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, I dont know much about them, nor have I ever heard their music, but judging by the guitar/bass hybrid and the fact that they were too hard for those pussies in everclear makes me like them anyway. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yea i have that too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's "Pack up the Cats......" :p and yeah, that was a critically acclaimed album even (which means its great!) but their label fell apart right when they released it, so it didn't push units. (which is the most important thing!) yeah, pick up Pack Up the Cats |
