Apr 29 2005 @ Roxy Theather Atlanta, GA

Since the last time I saw the Bone in '88 (opening for the Chili Peppers), Ive never been around when they were playing. Just so happened that I was online yesterday and the Bone happened to be in ATL...Cool

In those almost 20 years since Ive seen them the CDs were always laying around and even my kids were into the music. So what the hell...time to take my 12 year old to her first concert. Better get to her now before she goes to some BS Hillary Duff show. Hell Yes, took my 12 year old to see Fishbone, there could be no other way. Had no desire to stick around for Slighty Stoopid either it could only be anti-climatic.

Band was tight, played for 1:10. Definately a bit older than what I saw at The Ritz in NY years ago. Angelo was great. Although I wish Walt and the other boys were still there, they were still great. The Roxy is a bit muddy sounding, Norwoods bass just resonated a bit too much. Lots of new stuff that I never heard. The Fishbone I remember is...Cholly...Party at GZ etc. Miss the old days, but grateful that theyre still out there kickin it... Great show

Yes that was me buying the hats.. Im off to Ft Liquordale for the 5/3 show.

This is only the second time I've managed to catch the bone in ATL, but it was one hellacious ride. Everyone sounded great, the standard (by which I mean insane) fishbone energy was full in effect, too bad the crowd was mostly teeny-boppers and frat boys there to see Slightly Stoopid. Good set, good mix of classic stuff (Sunless Saturday, Party at Ground Zero, Ma & Pa, Freddie's Dead). Too bad ...

Okay, so it has been mentioned that the crowd kind of sucked, but the band never stopped trying to get them into it. I actually felt a little bit bad for SS, because the fan base was not one you'd expect to see sticking with a group for more than a few months. I hope I am proven wrong on that one. But either way it was a great show, and even the presence of a Man U. fan (who was actually a cool...

My favorite group came to Atlanta last Friday. I missed them at Smith's Olde Bar and I was talking to someone Friday that was saying their show was smokin.' I really wish they had not opened Friday because they only played for about an hour. Also, the kids there that had not clue about Fishbone got on my nerves a bit. Their set was off the hook and Angelo's energy was as high as usual. Hearin...

Yes sir! Fishbone was playing hard! The energy was high, on stage, but i'll agree with the rest of the soliders that the SS crowd stood confused. Who in the hell??? Shut up bitches and step aside we needs to skank and pit. This was the first show that i'd been to where Angelo didn't jump in the crowd. Can't blame him, most of those people would have stepped out the way. Not having the crowd behind...
