Don't know. Will Hunt said that back in 2004. He's played drums with Evanescence, Black Label Society, Device, Staind and Static X since. So it didn't ruin him. but yeah it coulda been a big bridge burning moment!

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
Davis was elevated to Chief Creative Officer of Sony Music Entertainment,[27] a title he currently holds, as part of a corporate restructuring when Sony BMG became Sony Music Entertainment in late 2008 when BMG sold its shares to Sony.[3] Arista Records and J Records, which were both founded by Davis, were dissolved in October 2011 through the restructuring of RCA Records. All artists under those labels were moved to RCA Records.[28]

Sony owns half the world so they are even more doomed.
Slipknot
Genre: nu metal, heavy metal
Discovered: Ozzfest sampler cd (two songs, but only rough mixes of them)
Other: Went to Locobazooka '99 (a local radio station's big show) and saw Slipknot, Staind, Static X, System of a Down and a bunch of other "S" bands that were just starting to break big. Slipknot's set was the craziest. The crowd pushed so hard I was leaning forward at a 45 degree angle, then it would reverse and I'd be leaning backward at a 45 degree angle. Like a thousand sardines nailed to the floor of the ocean as the tide reverses every 30 seconds.
HIGH FIVE:
1. (sic)
2. Eyeless
3. Wait And Bleed
4. Surfacing
5. Psychosocial

Something I recently learned, Jay Weinberg, the drummer for Slipknot, is Max Weinberg's son (yes, the Springsteen drummer).

Genre: alt rock, alt pop
Discovered: Singles Soundtrack
Other: Casual fan. Prefer their louder, crunchier stuff

1. Drown
2. Zero
3. Cherub Rock
4. Quiet
5. 1979
Smithereens
Genre: rock & roll, alt rock, pop rock

HIGH FIVE:
1. Blues Before And After
2. A Girl Like You
3. Too Much Passion
4. Top Of The Pops

Those guys were great. They were an awesome old-school no-nonsense rock and roll band.
We're still playing A Girl Like You.

Snoop Dogg
Genre: hip hop
Discovered: on Dre's "Nothin' But A G Thang"
Other: It's the bow to the wow, creepin' and crawlin'. His new song "Gang Signs" may replace #5 below eventually, it's pretty hot.
HIGH FIVE:
1. Vato (with B Real of Cypress Hill)
2. Who Am I (What's My Name)
3. Snoop Bounce (with Rage Against The Machine)
4. Gin And Juice
5. Point Seen Money Gone

2. Somebody To Shove
3. Black Gold
4. Runaway Train
5. Growing Into You
Spin Doctors
Genre: rock and roll
Discovered: FM, "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong"
Other: Three solid hits from their first album. Pretty much the only ones anyone knows (or wants to know) from them. Aside from those two other mediocre tracks at #4 and #5 below, I'm in the same boat. Three-hit wonder.
HIGH FIVE:
1. Little Miss Can't Be Wrong
2. Two Princes
3. Jimmy Olsen's Blues
4. Have You Ever Seen The Rain
5. What Time Is It

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
Uhhh, um, yeah. Actually, I covered them in my thread, and he was on drugs 24-7. For their 2nd album, I had a hard time finding a live performance where he was fully conscious.

Turns out I share a birthday with the lead singer (February 5th).
Found this little nugget amusing:
"He attended Bennington College in Vermont for one year. There, he was a member of two local bands: Dead Alcoholics With Boners and the Funbunnies."
I hadn’t realized (or totally forgot) that Popper had been a part of the bands roots. They seem to have someone sanitizing their wiki pages, because they don’t reference any of the less glamorous stuff that we all know happened.
