I liked The Pacific better. The part I like most is there is also a documentary series called Hell in the Pacific that kind of goes with it and in it they interview some of the same guys portrayed in The Pacific, and one of them is Eugene Sledge who wrote a classic book about the pacific war from the soldiers’ point of view. I think together the two series do a great job.

Depends upon what mood I am in. Maybe Judas Priest or Iron Maiden. I like lots of heavy metal bands, but I also like classical music, punk rock, new wave, hell I like it all and at differnent times I have different favorites.

Not all music I like is suitable for all applications. wink-wink nudge nudge
Second digging Counting Crows though.
-
The Smiths
-
-
Roxy Music and Kraftwerk/Ultravox

Too many to pick one. Same with food, movies, etc.
Actually, my favorite band was the one I was in. I didn’t really go anywhere, but it was fun and I still enjoy listening to our recordings.
But to give some real answers:
The Pixies
Precious Fathers
Budos Band
Frank Zappa
The AdvantageI really just listen to a lot of different crap.

You too Jermo, I was also in a band and released an album. A +1 to you.

I wouldn’t say we released any albums, but we definitely had sets of recordings (mostly from parties and one show). I really want to play again some time.
What did you do in your band?

Morrissey
:)

I was fortunate enough to be able to see Morrissey live here in town on 05/11/07. One of the best shows that I have ever been at. He started with the classic “The Queen is Dead” and the rest of the show was a mix of old Smiths tunes and songs up to “Ringleader of the Tormentors.” His newest album “Years of Refusal” is really good.
-
I saw him 6 times since '03. He always puts on a great show. Always a perfect combo of Smiths/solo stuff. Years of refusal was much better than ringleader of tormentors but not as good as You Are The Quarry.
-
Alice in Chains have always been my all-time fav, pretty big fan. Grew up in the middle of the Grunge age so my other favs are Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, 311, and Faith No More. I am also a sucker for late 80’s early 90’s hair bands.

Today I was in the mood for some Simon and Garfunkel.
