Can only see them once because Ticketmaster adds another $36 in fees, but this only shows up after you've managed to get through the queue and if you think about it too long, you'll lose your spot.
Ah shit, sorry, they accidentally sold your tickets on their scalper site for $1244 (plus fees and taxes), but don't worry, you'll get a refund.
They play some, still. But not a lot. At least not in the US. They're playing in Vegas in April this year and that's it. I remember back the first time I saw them. Think I paid like $20. Good times back then.
At current there is not much shot of an actual tour (Serj doesn't want to) and there's just been those two songs in 2020 since 2005. There's always hopes or hints or speculation of a new album, but really it just doesn't seem like it's going to happen.
There were a few other bands I wouldn't mind seeing on there, like Slipknot does seem like they put on a good show. StaticX is a band that has a few songs I still listen to.
But over all I keep looking at those three, and I wouldn't be willing to trade them for any of the other bands.
I get the joke, but there are so many worse bands that would have been funnier lol I think a lot of people would pay good money to see Slipknot, SOAD and Deftones all in one show! Static X is still really good too!
It's a shitpost intended to troll metal fans. But I think most instead got distracted by the question and aren't paying much attention to the troll itself. The values might be another attempt at inducing rage.
Sorry, but my rage is being saved for the machine.
Honesty, understandable: I partly like about half of those listed... But I prefer listening to recordings at non-deafening volumes while not being surrounded by a hell lot of humans. Sucks to be an introvert, I guess.
I got to see Korn in early 2020 right before covid really hit. It was a dream come true. Only band on that list I wanted to see and hadn't yet, and they did not disappoint
Lol, most of these acts have watered down over the years.
Mudvayne is only happening because Hellyeah is mostly done after Vinnie Paul's death. Not sure how they'll be, if they'll be anything.
Korn has been sucking.
Slipknot is a little unstable right now.
System of a Down isn't really doing much and Serj Tankian hasn't been that interested in rejoining the band.
Deftones is solid.
Limp Bizkit is a has been, also fuck Fred Durst.
Disturbed is just okay.
Papa Roach is so-so.
Static-X is just a tribute act these days.
Drowning Pool lost a lot of relevancy.
Mushroomhead seem to be doing fine.
Alien Ant Farm is still doing something but they're so-so. One hit wonder.
CrazyTown is more or less dead.
Ill Nino is just up in the air.
Imagine a show where all 3 bands play new material, Static-X has already released some new stuff but SOAD (excluding those two single in 2020) and Mudvayane have yet to do so
Yeah, the second time. It was legitimately one of the worst shows out of the 150+ artists I've seen in my life and is the reason I've sworn off anything in Atlanta or through LiveNation again
I didn't get the chance to meet him, but when I was active in the metal community I heard nothing but good things. I guess I should say Drowning Pool was a local band before they blew up.
Got the top row at Big Day Out here in NZ circa... 2004 or 2005 I think it was? Was pretty neat but the accoustics was so bad could barely hear anything.
None of those are my cup of tea because metal in general is not my cup of tea. However, based on the handful of metal shows I've seen, they're still probably worth watching for the spectacle no matter how bad the music is.
Out of these, Papa Roach is by far the best one, I think.
The rest is more or less a matter of which songs they play, I only like a few each. And some, I've never heard of.
Ilk go to see SOAD twice.
Can only see them once because Ticketmaster adds another $36 in fees, but this only shows up after you've managed to get through the queue and if you think about it too long, you'll lose your spot.
Ah shit, sorry, they accidentally sold your tickets on their scalper site for $1244 (plus fees and taxes), but don't worry, you'll get a refund.
If I should ever find myself with tickets for them I'll remember you, Macaroni Ninja.
You are a true gentleman/gentlewoman/gentleperson! Much obliged!
Damn it. You beat me to posting this. Seen em in concert like 20ish years ago, too. They were fantastic.
I last saw them in 2015 in London and it was one of the best concerts of my life.
God I wish they would have all played nice and made just one more album.
We got the COVID songs at least? Don’t they still play concerts in Brazil or something?
They play some, still. But not a lot. At least not in the US. They're playing in Vegas in April this year and that's it. I remember back the first time I saw them. Think I paid like $20. Good times back then.
At current there is not much shot of an actual tour (Serj doesn't want to) and there's just been those two songs in 2020 since 2005. There's always hopes or hints or speculation of a new album, but really it just doesn't seem like it's going to happen.
I'll just book AAF for 10 consecutive shows where they're only allowed to play the smooth criminal cover.
This and SOAD twice are the only 2 correct answers
One AAF concert and the rest is spent on $5 shots for every time he says "Talk to the Chewbacca! Hoo!" in Smooth Criminal.
I'm kind of fond of some of their other tracks, but it doesn't matter if I'm knocked out.
The album that song is on is actually great and one of my favs of that era. I'd make them play the whole album and only that album.
It wasnt until I got older that I realised how fucking amazing of a cover it is.
A SOAD + Deftones + AAF concert would fucking slap.
I was looking at it and it's the only correct answer. Those are the only bands from that era that I go back to for more than just a nostalgia hit.
There were a few other bands I wouldn't mind seeing on there, like Slipknot does seem like they put on a good show. StaticX is a band that has a few songs I still listen to.
But over all I keep looking at those three, and I wouldn't be willing to trade them for any of the other bands.
That’s my go to but another great lineup would be Slipknot, Mudvayne, and Static X/Drowning Pool.
This is like the best actual answer.
Ditch AAF, pocket $10 and have a great concert
You could buy almost 1/3rd of a numetal t-shirt with that $10!
Keep aaf then we have a deal
They're definitely not a band that I actively revisit, but compared to most of the shit on this list they're better than tolerable.
I get the joke, but there are so many worse bands that would have been funnier lol I think a lot of people would pay good money to see Slipknot, SOAD and Deftones all in one show! Static X is still really good too!

Are you still just a rat in a cage, though?
Yes, but that cage is your head and I turn a wheel connected to your guts and all your faults are in me.
Going to see Static-X, Sevendust, and Dope next week 🤘🤘🤘
That's awesome dude! Stuck Mojo and Sevendust was one of the first concerts I went to when I was a teenager lol
No Linkin Park? (before they gave up nu-metal)
Seconded
It wouldn't be the same..
Putting System and Deftones in the list is and always was weird to me. These are also the only ones I listen to so perhaps I'm not exactly objective.
The only correct answer is System of a Down followed by System of a Down.
Easy: System of a Down twice
Deftones being below Slipknot should be a crime
Honesty, understandable: I partly like about half of those listed... But I prefer listening to recordings at non-deafening volumes while not being surrounded by a hell lot of humans. Sucks to be an introvert, I guess.
SOAD twice.
Those bands are rad bro, why you keeping $100?
System of a Down, Static-X, Mushroomhead, and Alien Ant Farm would be one hell of a show
SOAD, Deftones, and use the $10 left to cover half of a beer.
I'll take Static-X if they're using a hologram of Wayne
The surviving members have actually been touring with Edsel Dope (from Dope) as their vocalist under the stage name “Xer0”
And honestly, he's honouring Wayne's memory, he's perfect for the band and does it justice.
System and Deftones, and a packet of roasted peanuts? Okay, sounds good
All the others can kick rocks though
SOAD and keep the other $50
one system one korn plz
I got to see Korn in early 2020 right before covid really hit. It was a dream come true. Only band on that list I wanted to see and hadn't yet, and they did not disappoint
I'd pick Drowning Pool just to bring the lead singer back to life.
$20 for necromancy is a cheap price indeed
Lol, most of these acts have watered down over the years.
Mudvayne is only happening because Hellyeah is mostly done after Vinnie Paul's death. Not sure how they'll be, if they'll be anything.
Korn has been sucking.
Slipknot is a little unstable right now.
System of a Down isn't really doing much and Serj Tankian hasn't been that interested in rejoining the band.

CrazyTown is more or less dead.
Ill Nino is just up in the air.
Saw Mudvayne last year with Coal Chamber, GWAR, Nonpoint, and Butcher Babies and they fucking killed it for like 90 minutes straight.
Um, good for you?
This guy fucks.... nu-metal?
Come on man. Movies is pretty good.
If only concerts tickets were really this cheap. I saw TOOL not too long ago and it was ~$500 for two mediocre tickets.
Idk if I'm old, or poor, or both
But if I had $500 for a concert - I would just buy $400 in audio equipment, and a $100 in drugs and call it a night in.
Concerts are just such a great experience though. Especially TOOL concerts.
I've been to my fair share Tool concerts. The fans boo'ed Mike Patton. Lost a lot of respect for the fanbase that evening.
Looks like you're the TOOL, amiright ?
WTF, I payed 50 in SD, and they played with Primus (also some weird NIN knockoff).
I saw System of a Down 19 years ago and it was still more than the $50 on this list
Dear Christ. I don't see a lot of big-time acts, but I remember seeing P-Funk in the 90s and it cost like $20.
This would be fuckin rad.
Shouldn't our budget be $150? There are some sacrifices I'm not willing to make!
As in getting soad 3 times? /jk
I've paid £50 to see Korn this year. Tickets are now going for £200.
I saw them for free once because my job gave me tickets and they were good. It was a fun time. 🤷♀️
I paid £50 last year to watch Limp Bizkit at the same venue.
Long and short of it is that I used to get beaten up because of my music choices and style of dress in this town, in Yorkshire, in the UK.
Not far away Sophie Lancaster got beaten to death from the same thing.
Now I'm seeing sold out shows for the bands I was beaten for listening to, in my hometown.
So yeah I'm going, and I'm gonna be going mental in that moshpit.
Im a normie so disturbed and i keep the rest.
I'd take system of a down and parking.
Deftones isn't a nu-metal band, and I'd arguably say the same about soad who did its own weird thing. I'd also watch those two over anything else
Unpopular opinion but... no Soulfly?
Or Sevendust, I'd still wanna see undead Wanye Static growling on stage.
20 bucks to revive Wayne Static is a steal ngl
My first concert was Papa Roach. Put me off numetal entirely.
SOAD, Deftones, and AAF - as long as I can pick the setlist. In reverse order would be a phenomenal line up too.
Soad, Deftones, Allen ant farm. Done. let's go I have a boner already
System, Deftones, and Il Nino, perfection.
Bully memes are cool now
SOAD and Disturbed, sorry Korn and Slipknot
Ill Niño 5 times and then Disturbed
One Nation Underground is far and away my favorite nu-metal album of all time.
SOAD, Mudvayne and Static-X
Imagine a show where all 3 bands play new material, Static-X has already released some new stuff but SOAD (excluding those two single in 2020) and Mudvayane have yet to do so
It'd be an amazing show for all I know!
I'm splitting the money evenly with AAF.
SOAD, Deftones, and AAF I guess
but yeah, I'd keep the money because I don't like concerts very much
Deftones and have $60 left over to book local bands.
Crazy Town is even on the list? Suga, bebeh.
My answers to this question depends entirely on one question.
Do I also get to pick the setlists?
Lineups from 1997
100 Gecs or bust
Seen them twice now and can honestly say you're missing nothing listening to them at home
Did you see them with Machin Girl?
Yeah, the second time. It was legitimately one of the worst shows out of the 150+ artists I've seen in my life and is the reason I've sworn off anything in Atlanta or through LiveNation again
That's disappointing. I'd still give anything to see even Machine Girl's worst show.
Downing Pool is a tricky choice.
Nothing like their first album, when they had Dave Williams.
Yeah, Dave Stage made that band what it was.
I didn't get the chance to meet him, but when I was active in the metal community I heard nothing but good things. I guess I should say Drowning Pool was a local band before they blew up.
Wtf, a nu-metal meme that doesn't include LP?
To answer the question though; crazytown 10 times.
I sent my $100 to Happy Dude. I feel a little happier.
Well hold on. About a week later I sent 1 dollar to Sorry Dude. So it may not be over yet.
Korn, mudwayne, static-x
SOAD, limp bizkit (they put on a KILLER show), alien ant farm
nu-metal? what are you, a college student?
I’ll take Static and AAF and pocket the other $70. Have a good day.
Yeah... I'll pass.
Got the top row at Big Day Out here in NZ circa... 2004 or 2005 I think it was? Was pretty neat but the accoustics was so bad could barely hear anything.
This show is going to be a huge hit with line cook babydaddies.
I barely know anything about Static-X other than the music video for Pushit, but that's one rad picture there.
Nah they're from the NFS Underground soundtrack
deftones, a t-shirt and some beer
I've seen Slipknot a few times already so let's get SOAD in,
Ill Nino and Alien Ant Farm (gonna have to listen to ill Nino tomorrow I loved them as a kid lol)
Two beers (or mudvayne if I have to pick a band.)
Crazy Town is nu metal?!
None of those are my cup of tea because metal in general is not my cup of tea. However, based on the handful of metal shows I've seen, they're still probably worth watching for the spectacle no matter how bad the music is.
Out of these, Papa Roach is by far the best one, I think. The rest is more or less a matter of which songs they play, I only like a few each. And some, I've never heard of.
