Nicest Band

What bands do you guys know of that are really good to their fans/ just cool people in general? Just saw this video last night, and it made me wonder.

Don't know too many bands that would do something like this after a concert ;)..

I don't know, Aerosmith was pretty nice at their meet and greet a couple years back, but other than that, not sure.

Though I'm not a fan of them anymore, Metallica is pretty damn nice to their fans

Also, The Killers

from experience, as in concerts i've been to (which isn't many), i'd say green day. they let people go on stage and sing for them, and at one concert i went to they let a little kid play guitar for them. plus they keep the entire crowd involved in their performances.

the singer/guitarist of cynic gives counsel to the terminally ill and teaches meditation classes to inmates. seems like a pretty cool guy to me.LoG-Sacrament

they let people go on stage and sing for themadv_tr00per

So every concert someone has to save the show for them?

Your video reminded me of this one where Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins) plays special requests on the street with some guy's guitar. I love that video. So nice of him to do that!

Grateful Dead, Phish, Jimi Hendrix, The Band. They seem real nice, at least.

Isn't Billy Corgan known to be a complete ****?

Al Pitrelli of Trans-Siberian Orchestra, formerly of Megadeth, is a pretty nice guy. I remember at one of their concerts at the end of the show he gave one of the guitars he's been playing to some little kid, and I'm thinking, "WTF? Give it to me so it will actually be used!" :lol:

Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Super nice people, plus their former strings master is now going around to schools to get people involved in strings instruments by playing Rock songs. Its pretty sweet.

To be honest, I think he does seem to be a ***** but he seemed nice in that video.

Metallica, theyre very loyal to their fans that attend their concerts. They always give a great show, a long encore, and let you tape their shows. They also do a lot of stuff just for fun. I went to a Raider's game once and, there they were, playing out the back of a U-Haul truck as people tailgated. Thats the nicest thing Ive seen a band of that status do.

Wow, I didn't know that. That's awesome.

I've never met any members, but from what I hear, Malignancy has some of the nicest guys. I know Nargaroth's Kanwulf is a psychologist and has a very soothing voice (when not singing obviously). Nergal from Behemoth is supposed to be insanely nice and very intelligent too, despite not appearing so at first glance.
