Other Bands: Biohazard, House of Pain
This show was a definition sausage fest. I mean, it couldn’t get much more manly than this line up. Little did we know that it would be Korn who stole the show that night. They were so new that they had been playing with the House Of Pain and Biohazard for free to try to get some exposure. Only four days after this show, they officially released their self titled album and totally blew up on the scene. I thought they had a dumb name before I heard them, but granted, it was easy to remember. Their music was powerful and they made a hell of an impression in the mere half an hour they had in their set. Everybody got a kick out of Jonathan Davis busting out the bagpipes to do a cover of “Low Rider” before they went into “Snakes & Ladders”. They would go on to influence many of the so-called “nu metal” bands for years to come.
