90’s Flashback

Happy Hump Day: Raine Maida

I am a adolescent of the 90’s. This is pretty evident once you get to know me and my CD collection. I have fond memories of using school computers to go on band fansites (I didn’t have Internet of my own just yet) and print out photos of all my favorite hot rockstars to wallpaper my locker or notebooks.

They played at a local South Florida rock festival a couple of years ago that I attended and I was curious to see if they would still sound the same, worse? I was pleasantly surprised when they took the stage that they are still as great as ever and even appeased all us 90’s fans by playing their old material, which instantly took me back to being an angsty teenager (a place of comfort once you are an angsty adult). Another surprise? That lead singer, Raine, was just as hot as I remembered. But I’ll leave that opinion up to you all.
