[kj] in Defense of Prong

[KETRACEL WHITE]

YEAH MAN!!!  Prong rule(d) once upon a time.  Saw 'em open for Soundgarden &
Voivod around 1989/1990.  That was a BLISTERING show.  I think Troy Gregory
was on bass at that point, who (I think) is amongst the ranks of KJ bass
alumni.
Incidentally, Soundgarden kickes so much ass that Voivod threatened to
eliminate themselves from the bill (they were headlining).  A couple guys
with Canadian Metal-Mullets (that matched the bassplayer's) talked them into
playing their set - around the time of their Pink Floyd cover (Astromomy
Domine).
I'll shut-up & return to my Lurk Status now.
