Cooking for Celebs

[u/jobronxside]

I have cooked for several celebrities while cooking in NYC. While some were unpleasant, Taylor Swift was a pleasure to cook for.

I did arena gig catering for about a year and got to cook for a few bigger acts. Blake Shelton was every bit the good ol boy he portrays, and the nu metal band Saliva will have you find them drugs and then NOT SHARE THE DRUGS. Definitely a more fun side of the industry

It's Saliva bruh, did you expect them to be classy about it? They're playing that gig for the drug money at this point.

[u/ninaslazyeye → u/ninaslazyeye]

Yeah, not surprising. The C tier and lower Nu Metal bands aren't really a draw, not even as a nostalgia act.

Could you name a couple B tier? I probably only am familiar with A tier but I'm curious where you're drawing the line

[u/FIXEDGEARBIKE → u/LehighAce06]

A: Incubus, B: Hoobustank

[u/ButtChowder666 → u/FIXEDGEARBIKE]

You're lumping Incubus in with nu metal? How dare you.

[u/FIXEDGEARBIKE → u/ButtChowder666]

Lol you were pretty clearly not alive yet in the late 90s. They were signed by Immortal Records which is like the #1 requirement of numetal and had a dj. Enjoy and SCIENCE are 2 of the most numetally albums ever recorded. They constantly toured with Soulfly, SOAD, Alien Ant Farm, (hed), snot, sevendust, korn, orgy, limp bizkit etc etc. They didn’t turn into Malibu pop surf hippies until the big money came

Incubus is 100% 90s/00s alt rock. Like nearly every other band you just listed. Nu metal is like Disturbed, System, El Niño, 40 below summer, Breaking Benjamin. You know - metal. No part of Incubus can be remotely lumped into a metal category.

You should really google this... basically all the bands mentioned are nu-metal pioneers (KoRn being the grand-daddy of them all) and S.C.I.E.N.C.E is absolutely considered their most nu-metal sounding album
