I saw Dogstar in like 92? at metal fest, I didn't know they still played. Nice to see him play and not having people throw garbage onto the stage... Can you even imagine doing that to Keanu??

Everyone absolutely loved them and no throwing of trash at all. Complete 180 for sure. They got back together recently and they're doing a new album!

Which platform do you suggest listening to their new music & how many songs in their set did they play ? Thanks for sharing 😊

Oh man I've been trying to find their music on spotify but only have found one song. I sadly didn't count how many songs they played, but their set went on for an hour!

I know their music is on YouTube. I really like the song , " I wanna be an American " , & Rain. Thanks for the quick response.

They used to have The Complete Collection on Spotify, and when I asked them why it was inaccessible, they said it was a glitch that they’re not bothering to fix until after the new album comes out

You can still access the album through iTunes though

I saw them back in 92 or 93 as well, some smaller venue in San Jose. Was pretty clear that most of the attendees had zero interest in the band but were EXTREMELY thirsty for Keanu. Can't blame them!

Keanu could self-fund a world tour at a loss and wouldn't even feel a tickle in his checkbook. That's gotta be a bizarre situation for a band to be in.

But also Keanu's probably the only big Hollywood actor that doesn't need 11 aides just for himself in backstage and is humble enough to just be one of the members of his band. And making your music profitable at all times is hard, so they might have a problem less to care about.

I would love to see Dogstar with Tenacious D perform. A band performance with 2 of the most wholesome and awesome people would rock.

Now that's something I can DEFINITELY get behind on!

Always liked them! Have their first 3 album releases and saw them in Chicago back in 2000. Also, fun fact: the drummer is the guy from Speed. He was the guy in the elevator in the beginning who said “Geez, Bob, what button did you push?”

Y’all remember that YouTube video Goats on a Boat (like Snakes on a Plane)

Action movies, motorcycles, comic books, directing films, music—Keanu is living the life!

u/Alternative_Net774 May 28 '23

I guess it's my generation, though I've tried to keep up. But I'm definitely going to look up Dogstar. If Keanu likes them, then they must be awesome as he is!
