briremo Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 KM was doing a pre-show interview at a local radio station last Friday and the subject of great live bands came up. KM gives extensive kudos to RUSH at about 10:22 (and mentions RRHOF). BTW, I'm a huge CB fan and saw them live first when they opened for RUSH back in the day. http://www.thebucketheadshow.com/cc-common...rticle=10495541 I did not expect to hear this when I was listening to the interview!!!

OGr8imL84AD8inF8sBlackSedan Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 That was a great interview...Never really listened to Buckethead. Thanks for posting. BTW I saw CB 4 times on that tour with , Metallica, and twice as headliners (at The Edge...Remember that place?)...Great shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briremo Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 I was living in South Florida at the time and went to the old Miami Arena. I remember walking into the arena and asking my buddy, who's opening? He said Candlebox. I was like, WTF is a Candlebox? They rocked the place! Been a huge ever since!

thesweetscience Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 They still tour and put out new music which is very good. My wife and I saw them in concert for about the 20th time last winter. I made a thread about them a while back but they get little love here. KM has always been vocal about how nice it was touring with RUSH. Geddy and the boys treated them really well and KM has always stated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clem Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I'm a fan of their music as well. A lot of people dissed them, though, when they opened for Rush on the CP tour. I remember them being major cool. The guitarist played a bit of a riff from "Fly By Night" and "Limelight" as a teaser at different times during their set.

And I remember the nod to Rush with those riffs on that tour. I also remember the vocalist absolutely nailing it that night. Good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Into the Sun" album is so good my wife listens to it! And if you don;t cry listening to his tribute to his father "miss you' you have no soul!
