I saw Hum announced reunion show for May 31 at Millennium Park (Pritzker Pavillion) in Chicago. I wish I could go but it's just not possible.
They were the band that got me into Orange amps back in the 90s. To anybody that hasn't heard of them, I SERIOUSLY suggest you check them out. They are heavy, spacey, and really just amazing.

That's pretty cool. I don't think I ever heard much more than "Counting Stars", but that single song has done more to influence me than many other bands entire albums.

Interesting. This song is one of my favorites (though it's actual title is "Stars", for anyone looking on iTunes ). I used to have a long commute to work a number of years ago. I played this song super loud at least twice - each way! I love it! The riff near the end - and the one where the kind of chug/rest/chug/rest, etc.... - awesome!!!!Neiloler wrote:That's pretty cool.

Okay - after listening to this song again I realize - I need to go do some serious fuzz shopping!

I know what you mean! If you want to hear more, you can listen to a lot of their stuff on last fm. Their official website has a bunch of rarities to download for free too.Neiloler wrote:That's pretty cool.

I really wish they would get back together on a regular basis write new songs though.

Haha, Dan, I try, I try.
Greg, I wouldn't have guessed you'd be a Hum fan, and that's one more reason why you're the bee's knees. (And thanks for the title correction, I thought it sounded a bit off).
