Korn was touring in support of their Greatest Hits album, but their fame as well as their music were both already fading at this point and they were headed into band roster changes and a string of four lackluster albums over the coming years. But like I always say – that doesn’t stop a band from having killer concerts if they have enough hits. And Korn most certainly does and the concert was killer. I still have a jacked up right knee to this day because of how busted up I got in the pit right after “ARRRRRRE YOOOOOOOOU READAAAAAAAY?!?!?” when Blind kicks in. The floor at the Hard Rock used to be painted concrete, which was pretty slippery when wet – perfect for a club, right? It has been covered with a wooden floor now but back then if you hit the floor, you hit it hard. Nina went with me and the opening bands were three super-tight sets by Skindred, Chevelle, and Breaking Benjamin.
