I’ve seen both many times. I actually saw GNR when it was the true GNR. Right before they released Appetite For Destruction, they played at L’Amours in Queens. My older brother got me in. Tommy Guns was still in the band then. I also saw Metallica at Jones beach before they were big. I also hung out with them in the parking lot of WDHA radio station back then. They had a Metal Mania show on Fridays hosted by Eddie Trunk. I met tons of bands that way in the late 80’s. We used to hang out in the parking lot.
Yeah I was in a band named Force of Four that won a battle of the bands which was sponsored by WDHA and Eddie Trunk was one of the judges. We got to be a fourth opener for Slayer at a small venue called the Showplace in Dover. Which ironically is now a strip bar, but they kept the name. Unfortunately we didn’t last very long together. But we played a bunch of cool places.
I love that one, Dave Grohl was a monster on the drums in that one. I was never a huge Nirvana fan either, I really didn't get to know their music well until much later long after Cobain's death. He was talented guy, but very, very dark.

You missed some great concerts
I know I did, I did see some good ones in South America though like GNR and Metallica.

That was a great time to see them in the early days, I think it was 92 when they were in Santiago, Chile.
That must have been cool to hang out with the bands. Eddie Trunk is a legend!
Awesome.

Excellent song choices!
Thank you! How have you been?
I’ve never been a real fan of Nirvana. I used to prefer other bands back in the day, but here’s my favorite from them (I love those drums):

I'm glad I wasn't in the industry, I probably would have got hooked on something too!
It definitely would’ve been way too easy. I could see that as well!🙄
The 90s was my decade for country music
