I feel like Belushi bringing Fear as a musical guest scared Lorne away from booking hardcore and hardcore-adjacent bands forever.
Fear performed during that period where Lorne wasn’t involved in the show. And off top of my head AFI and Rage Against the Machine have played (even though the Rage set was considered controversial)
I'm not exactly excited for a full episode of Kate this soon after her leaving lol but Driver always kills it on this show Rodrigo and Eilish back to back is killer musical booking for them
Yea it was when December Underground came out and from my memory of the episode, it was a terrible performance due in part because of technical audio issues.
That’s true and I was being a little facetious. But to be fair, Rage and System both got their asses banned too. AFI might be the exception to not get in trouble. But typically, SNL has avoided metal, pop-punk and hard rock.
simple and got the job done, like that a five timer monologue didn’t make a huge deal of things we’ve seen before
