That sounds about right. My roommate was in the Savannah band City of Lindas. They opened the show. You probably crossed paths with them at some point. I think they were kinda snobby and didn't like most other bands. When my first band came back to Savannah to play our first show in the city, some of them came to see us, and left before we finished.dontfeartheringo wrote: Tue Jun 10, 2025 2:51 pmRockin Eagle?trey wrote: Wed Jun 04, 2025 1:38 pm Not Crap.

I saw them play in a tiny bar in Statesboro GA around 1989. Pretty amazing show.
I’ve always considered them an evolutionary missing link between 80s hair metal and 90s alternative. They were an 80s L.A. band—indeed, I wonder if any band outside of X spent more time obsessing over the demimonde of Los Angeles—that was both a little too ahead of its time, and too much of its time.Jacques wrote: Tue Jun 10, 2025 10:21 am I know this isn't the case, but Concrete Blonde always seemed like hair-metal dorks trying to be goth and failing. Bad song, bad band.
CRAP.
When we played with them, Dan thought they were called "City of Windows," and made sure to thank them using that name during our set.trey wrote: Tue Jun 10, 2025 4:54 pmThat sounds about right.

Hilarity ensued. (They were not amused.)
