Rock The Ball - Which artist would you like to see (finalists)

**Ice** · 06-06-2007, 01:19 PM

Anthrax would do a kick ass show but the Violent Femmes would be pretty rocking also.

p.s. Where is my players card and big woody?

**xxxjay** · 06-06-2007, 01:20 PM

ANTHRAX - ANTHRAX - ANTHRAX - ANTHRAX - ANTHRAX - ANTHRAX -

The players / headbangers ball? Oh yes!

**SykkBoy** · 06-06-2007, 01:22 PM

would have to go with either 'thrax or the Nuge...

Fishbone is pretty damn good too

While those performers listed fit the budget, are they actually up for playing at the Ball?

**munki** · 06-06-2007, 01:23 PM

Violent Femmes would have my vote from this list

**Bryan G** · 06-06-2007, 01:24 PM

Chris Cornell Baby come on!!!!!!

**RevSand** · 06-06-2007, 01:25 PM

Fishbone or Femmes

**Michaelious** · 06-06-2007, 01:27 PM

Fishbone are excellent

**D-Money** · 06-06-2007, 01:29 PM

And if we went super hard like Anthrax, do you think we can hold the crowd and rock out?

Or do you think for those who don't like hard music, they will leave?

My philosophy with the Players Ball has always been fuck it, I like it, so it should work. But I still try to book shows that the majority should like.

But with rock, it's different.

**_Richard_** · 06-06-2007, 01:29 PM

toss up between chris cornell and violent femmes.. picked cornell

**garry** · 06-06-2007, 01:29 PM

Am I getting to old already ?? I havent heard about any of these guys here. What happened to Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton ? ;)

**SykkBoy** · 06-06-2007, 01:32 PM

Hmm, Ratt? I assume that's with bad karaoke imitation singer they have now as opposed to Stephen Pearcy?

**SykkBoy** · 06-06-2007, 01:34 PM

damn double post

**WonderWoman** · 06-06-2007, 01:35 PM

Im saying chris Cornell followed by Violent Femmes. More crowd appeal.

**Moe** · 06-06-2007, 01:36 PM

I would love to see Chris Cornell or Anthrax

**GigaAlan** · 06-06-2007, 01:40 PM

Cornell for me too... Although I am a little sad not to see The Kingston Trio on the poll.

ROCK!

Ted is out of the running, he just came back with a much higher price since it's an off concert tour date.

But all of the rest are serious.

**Imortyl Pussycat** · 06-06-2007, 01:40 PM

voted for Violent Femmes but Anthrax is my #2 choice. Chris Cornell is #3. Rock it baby!!!

**xxxjay** · 06-06-2007, 01:41 PM

the Chris Cornell solo stuff is no Audioslave or Soundgarden...probably not what you are expecting

**Vendzilla** · 06-06-2007, 01:43 PM

I could just see Ted shooting flaming arrows at a target during this, too bad he's out of range!

**Mohawk Steve** · 06-06-2007, 01:43 PM

Yea, his solo shit would put everyone to sleep, and quick. Anthraz would put on a killer show that I think everyone could enjoy, and I've heard good things about the Violent Femmes live

**Jman** · 06-06-2007, 01:44 PM

Anthrax, Fishbone are great choice

you can also add DIO to the list and Alice Cooper.

**webair** · 06-06-2007, 01:45 PM

Dream Theater!

**xxxjay** · 06-06-2007, 01:48 PM

Dio would rock.

**D-Money** · 06-06-2007, 01:58 PM

Decisions decisions...

Also, to all of those I hit up for advice recently, THANK YOU!

I've been calling people and icq'ing looking for a measure on this.

Rap shows are easy, but figuring out a rock act for this budget is tougher.

**ytcracker** · 06-06-2007, 02:00 PM

motherfuckin scott ian and camp
anthrax all the way

Realistically, that one might happen.

I'm going back and forth with agents now.

But I'm keeping an open mind, so feed back is welcome.

**WebairGerard** · 06-06-2007, 02:04 PM

From those listed I say Anthrax followed by Chris Cornell (if he does Soundgarden tunes)!

Like Webair Mike suggested, see if you can get Dream Theater! ;)

Looking good D$

**ytcracker** · 06-06-2007, 02:07 PM

also in agreement with the webair camp - dream theater would be awesome too

**ytcracker** · 06-06-2007, 02:11 PM

haha, I was going to joke "If it's Violent Femmes, will they just play Blister in The Sun 25 times?"

**MikeVega** · 06-06-2007, 02:14 PM

Anthrax would be the way to go for me. I've always loved that band

**Chio** · 06-06-2007, 02:23 PM

YARGH! Bring The Noise.

**Sosa** · 06-06-2007, 02:24 PM

Cornell out of that group

**King Adam** · 06-06-2007, 02:28 PM

Chris Cornell or Anthrax. Maybe Anthrax though as they are more upbeat and will keep the party crankin.

**MikeHawk** · 06-06-2007, 02:33 PM

Fuck that....TINY TIM....RULES

**Bugbee** · 06-06-2007, 02:34 PM

Anthrax woud rock, Femmes are good second choice. Fishbone rocks but not as hard as they use too. I saw them two weeks ago and fricken Dirty the lead singer was so drunk he tripped over a speaker fell backwards yard sailed and his pants fell down. if funny shit like that can be promised I might change my vote. Also D please remove smithereens I saw them by accident last week I thought they were a cover band playing before Boogie Nights played it was no cover band, one word geritol.....

**Pete-KT** · 06-06-2007, 02:37 PM

none of them, how about godsmack or shinedown?

The issue is, money.

I'd love a ton of others before these options, but they're all well over $100k to book.

At least with the options I'm showing, we can lock any one of these guys right now.

**BobG** · 06-06-2007, 03:15 PM

slightly stoopid is pretty sick live.
