They Might Be Giants

Though its a band I don't listen to that much, maybe because I lost all of their CDs over the years, but TMBG has consistently been one of my all time favorite bands since I was 13 years old. Back then I only had ears for bands like Metallica, GNR, Slayer, and Pantera, but somehow TMBG squirmed their way in there. They spoke to my dorky metal heart in a way no band really has since, except maybe Phish.

Anyone else a fan? I never see any TMBG in the WAYLT thread so I thought I'd ask.

They played here recently. On this tour, they're doing two sets. The first one is the entire album Flood in order. That's a pretty big change, as they appeared to dislike playing that material for many years. When I saw them in 1996, they did a medley and cranked through Constantinople and Particle Man in record time. Anna Ng rocked both times I've seen them. ;D

Yeah Ana Ng did totally rock out the one time I saw them at the Variety in ATL. They also did the entire "Fingertips" medley from Apollo 18, which was ridiculous hot.

Glad to see TMBG gets some love around here, they are a special band. I bought a pristine LP of their first album from Geoman. "Don't Lets Start" is one of my favorites.
