Nice mike!

I'm seeing system of a down tomorrow...not really expecting anything too exciting.

Actually I'm more looking forward to getting qotsa/soundgarden tix on Friday

Looks like it's all about Stage 4, Mike. Especially Unearthed and Gojira, don't miss either of them.

I am tempted by Sonisphere this year - the big 4 with Diamond Head opening up for them. Bloodstock is an incredible line-up this year too.

Heh, sorry.  Since I've discovered Abney Park, I've noticed that when they leave the Seattle area, it's pretty much only to play cons and similar events, and before now, the closest I've seen is DragonCon, which is in freaking Georgia or something.  I need to scrounge up $110 by the end of the month, but that covers the whole weekend at the con AND the show, so seriously?  WAY better deal than the last time I saw NIN.

Rage and fainting, yeah I figure.  ;D

I don't believe the official annoucement was made until just before the show began, although more than a few people had figured it out (mainly due to Nick Mason announcing he was attending that exact performance).

LCD Soundsystem and The Flaming Lips are the most recent shows I went to. Both were quite enjoyable in different ways.

LCD Soundsystem was fantastically raw and stripped down awesomeness. The crowd was great and it was deffinitely as much fun as I've ever had at a concert.

The Flaming Lips was really good and the first time I have actually laughed at such an event. Diametrically opposed to the LCD show, it was full of all the props, colors, etc. that you'd expect from them. Two problems: short setlist and awful, awful audience.

Will probably go to see Tricky on the 21st.
Title: Re: Seeing them Live - Concerts and gigs thread.
Post by: sin on May 13, 2011, 11:54:23 PM
I was pretty disappointed in Tricky when I saw them open for Tool.  I guess part (most) of that was just being bitter than if I had seen them 2 shows earlier I would have seen The Melvins open instead.
Title: Re: Seeing them Live - Concerts and gigs thread.
Post by: luna on May 14, 2011, 10:38:22 AM
All I really remember from seeing them open for tool was that the bass was so loud it felt like I couldn't breathe...was second row on the floor (yes seats on the floor at a tool show, wtf) and it was a big arena so maybe they would be better in a small venue where they don't have to crank it to much
Title: Re: Seeing them Live - Concerts and gigs thread.
Post by: spade on May 14, 2011, 12:38:25 PM
Sitting at a Tool concert? That just sounds awkward. Then again, it's probably better than never getting to see them. : P

The venue at which Tricky is playing isn't that big and I haven't noticed any particularly bad acoustic problems so far. I'm pretty sure I'll go, if only to kind of sort of make up for missing Massive Attack last year.

I just find the fact that he changed it when it has nothing to do with OMGISLAMOPHOBIA so ridiculous.  IMO, it's along the same line of schools that now use censored versions of Mark Twain books for their kids to read.  8(

Post by: TPD on June 16, 2011, 12:39:32 PM
i think it's because robert smith knows a lot of people are dumb and wants to remove any potential dumbness the song could cause.

kinda like how they painted "rock the casbah" on bombs they dropped in iraq and it made joe strummer cry.

i think smith just wants to avoid that bullshit. hell, the song isn't even available in any newly mastered cure cds.
Title: Re: Seeing them Live - Concerts and gigs thread.
Post by: rynne on June 16, 2011, 01:25:10 PM
Robert Smith's original idea for the song was about an HVAC engineer who crewed on the Pequod.


















"Chilling an Ahab," natch.

I went to a local gig the other day, a £2 affair in an upstairs room of a pub. The bands were fine, but that's not the purpose of me posting here.

I had a conversation with one of the other punters afterwards, who had been to Sonisphere. Somehow she managed to get backstage - -- and even onstage at one point. She wasn't sure how she did this as she as off her face at the time, but suspects it may have had something to do with sleeping with one of the crew members. Nonetheless, in her less than sober state, she managed to convince herself that Slayer were not Slayer, but some posers pretending to be Slayer, and shouted at them: "YOU'RE NOT FUCKING SLAYER!", on hearing which they were apparently unimpressed.

And this is why I do not drink excessively at shows.  Particularly open-air ones since there's bound to be enough pot around to to get a buzz just from LOOKING at the smoke.  I just don't trust myself not to shout something completely idiotic if I were to be inebriated.  However, OTHER PEOPLE shouting idiotic things that are badly received is hilarious.

At the same show, someone after the first song shouted out "Erm, can I just ask a question?". The lead singer said "ok, go on". "What's that down there? It looks weird." "That's a setlist."

Post by: luna on July 31, 2011, 03:12:09 PM
ok so for an arena show with the worst seats i've had in quite a while this ended up being pretty good. queens awesome as always, this is actually the 4th time i've seen them! i don't care if josh homme is a douchebag he is the shit and his quotes are always hilarious
setlist:
You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, but I Feel Like a Millionaire
3's & 7's
Sick, Sick, Sick
First It Giveth
Better Living Through Chemistry
Burn the Witch
Make It Wit Chu
Little Sister
Go With the Flow
No One Knows
A Song for the Dead

soundgarden were surprisingly good, really better than i expected. i never saw them live back in the day but i know they had a reputation for being very sloppy live, well they've definitely improved. chris cornell's voice is obviously not what it used to be but not nearly as bad as i expected especially on the older stuff. every time i go into a show, especially of a band i haven't seen live before i choose a song that i would absolutely LOVE to hear...this time it was the very unlikely limo wreck...which they didn't play, but number two on my list was 4th of july and we got that so it was overall a great experience
setlist:
Searching With My Good Eye Closed
Spoonman
Gun
Jesus Christ Pose
Blow Up the Outside World
The Day I Tried to Live
My Wave
Burden in My Hand
Ugly Truth
Fell on Black Days
Loud Love
Drawing Flies
Black Hole Sun
Outshined
Rusty Cage
Superunknown
4th of July

Encore:
Beyond the Wheel
Mailman
Slaves & Bulldozers

last night:
peter hook and the light play unknown pleasures.

single greatest show of my life. i don't care if it's essentially a coverband with peter hook... it was fucking awesome.
not only did they do a hell of a job on unknown pleasures, they also played some of my fave singles and b-sides.
no love lost, warsaw, digital, even ceremony as a fucking 2nd encore... and that's the first time i ever saw a band come out after the houselights and house music came back on to interrupt it for an encore.

amazing. just magical. i'm sure there are some youtube vids floating of my self in the front row bopping up and down.

a lot of people complained about hook doing these JD shows, but i say "fuck em". he was there. he's got a right, and goddamn he's doing it justice.

mind blown.

other highlights: atmosphere, everyone singling along to love will tear us apart, and the 12 inch mix of she's lost control, and everyfucking thing else.
whole show was tits.

ladytron owned. played most of everything i wanted to see live. and they were so ^_^

the other opening band VHS or Beta was the biggest piece of boring hipster trash ever.
one song sounded like they ripped off the closer heart beat (nightclubbing beat whatever) but then it turned into the biggest piece of ghey boring ever.
i expected them to break out and do WHAT IS LOVE
it was that bad.

A friend and I are def. going to Tori this year- she's coming around in early december. I missed her last tour, and i actually really think that the new album is the best stuff she's put out in at least 8-10 years.

I might try to snag Puscifer tx if it's not already sold out. They're playing a much bigger venue this time around- about a year and a half ago I saw them @ Berklee School of Music, which has a pretty small performance hall.

I wasn't sure if I'd get to go or not right up until the morning of, but I got to see the Devin Townsend Project on Saturday.  First time he'd ever played Regina in any incarnation.

I had a great time, as did everyone there, but Devin was clearly having one of the worst shows of his life due to technical problems with his in-ear monitors.  He was an amazing sport about it though, and kept a giant smile on his face the whole time while his roadie Armando tried to deal with things.  The guy's a consummate showman though, and I ended up going with a dude who barely knew anything of Devin Townsend, and he had an awesome time just watching the guy be a class act on stage.  Choice Devin quotes of the evening:

"Jiggle the cord, Armando!!  JIGGLE THE CORD!!"
"Have I mentioned my suit smells like a thousand testicles?"
"So, Regina.  We're not the kind of guys who are gonna make the obvious joke, we're not like that, we're not going to go around like that, VAGINA VAGINA VAGINA VAGINA VAGINA VAGINA!!!"

And then, as many metal songs do, one ended up in a very quiet bridge, and just as Devin was about to sing his quiet part, one douchenozzle in the crowd screams out "ONE MORE SONG".  Devin, taken aback, half-way to belting out a sung note, instead turns to the guy and goes "What?!  Whaddya mean one more song?!  We're still IN THE MIDDLE of a bloody song you twatknuckle!! We were just gonna pack it up right here in the middle and head out back to our cold-as-balls bus, but nOOOOOOOOo, you know what, just for you--what's your name?  Henry?--Ok, for Henry here, we'll keep playing, BECAUSE HE TOLD US TO, OKAY!! ARE YOU FUCKING HAPPY NOW!!"  He screamed all that with a giant smile on his face, which was shared by the entire audience.

Totally awesome show.  Actually went much farther back into the back catalog than I was expecting.  There was two songs off Deconstruction, one each off of Addicted and Ki, and then the rest was all from Ziltoid and earlier.  Great stuff.  Even when he can't hear himself, he sounds bloody awesome.

I was in Nashville this past week and was walking 'round the downtown area where there's tons of bars with random country bands playing. Now, it'd be stupid to be in Music City without sampling some local fare. So I caught two beers' worth of some six-piece band (I never caught the name) packed onto a stage so small they were nearly falling off in front of a tiny audience in a tiny club.

It was a real motley group: a beanpole of a lead singer in his early 30s playing a Telecaster of about the same age; a short, jovial acoustic guitarist with blonde caveman beard and hair; a girl on 5-string bass out of a Rev. Horton Heat video; a curly-haired fiddler who didn't look old enough to drink; a pedal-steel guitarist old enough to be the fiddler's dad and looking like Harry Shearer in his Folksmen guise; and a drummer who never quite got it face seen through the others.

And holy shit, did they kick ass. It was all about enthusiasm, intimacy and volume. The set list was---as far as I could tell---pretty traditional (they took a request for some Waylon). No pop-country bullshit, but then if there was I wouldn't have stuck around.

he's also touring with one of the guys from atari teenage riot, and that guy djed before saul's set as well as performed with saul.

there was also alot of confetti, s&m undertone, a dick cannon that blasted foam on the audience,

nah. caribou! real good band from manitoba.
show was great. played more mellow tracks than they apparently did in jersey (and that jersey setlist looked sick)... but the show still kicked massive amounts of ass.

unfortunately their drum tech got crushed to death in toronto preppin for show the next day.
which made that show the night before all the more poignant and sad.
real bummer. rough way for anyone to go. especially when everyone in the band and and crew seemed to really enjoy the hell out of what they were doing.
major bummer.

Amon Tobin is going on tour again. And there is a show in Seattle. I want to go. THEN I looked at ticket prices. 224.50? For one fucking ticket? I mean I really like him. But not for that much... It does come with a box set. However there isn't an option to not get the box set and just go to the show... Fucking suck.


However, Mono just put out tour dates. Maybe I could see them live.

Sep 15 Atmosphere play here. I'm gona try and swing that... I haven't bought ticks or asked to change work times so I can.

Mono (Japan) will be here Oct 2nd. I am gona go to that show as well. I might take a few extra days off and go around town or something...

Doug Stanhope tweeted and posted on fb about doing shows in Oct. Really hoping he comes to Seattle.

No Stanhope tour for C@tle yet. HOWEVER SAUL WILLIAMS IS TONIGHT! While I am a bit sad that it's a poetry reading instead of a music thing. I'm also happy for the same reason...


I also got the time off for Mono and Deftones. While I can't say I'm huge on Deftones I still want to go to the show. One of my friends from HS (that I liked then, and still like now. Might be coming up for it if he can swing it.) Deftones have the guitarist from System of a Down as an opener. Scars on Broadway. Not gona lie, I fucking hate his voice. I liked the first SOAD album, the last few were shit. SO I might be boozing during that part...  MONO is gona be fucking amazing. I really hope they play The Kidnapper Bell.  Their new album is really beautiful more so then their others. So even if they don't play the song the show will still be amazing.

This'll be my third time seeing them, and my wife's first.  Saw them in Calgary for the Vapour Trails tour, and they actually hit Regina for the Snakes and Arrows tour.  They seem to like touring their home country pretty thoroughly, and you won't hear me complaining about it!

If you get the chance, see them this time around.  They're still at the absolute apex of their game.  I just hope "Closer to the Heart" gets put back into the setlist.  I know its a tad cheesy, but a Rush show just doesn't feel the same without it, and they left it off the setlists for a few years because they were just plain tired of playing it.

The Who (kinda) doing Quadrophenia (with the original keyboardist) in Nov. The who's one of those bands i've listened to forever. really fell in love with them in HS, and when I eventually heard Quad I hated it. Took me some years later to relisten to it and have it click, and it's easily one of my fave all time Who recordings. I had a chance to see em like 15 years ago and I have kicked myself for not doing so, especially with Entwistle passing awhile later. SO yeah, I ain't missing this one.

Last night was MONO. They did their newest album For My Parents. My mind was blown like Dwyer's, less messy. But it was such an amazing show. And they didn't fuck around they came up and played, they paused a bit after each song for us to cheer them on. But they went right into the next song. One of the guitarist played like no fucking other. He was dripping sweat at like the mid point of the first song, by the end of the show his shirt was soaked. He also broke a string and replaced it hella fast. Like with in a minute and a half and it tuned and was waiting for his part to start. But he played from his heart. The rest of the group played really well to, like I'm still blown away by how amazing and how much music 4 people could put out. It was one of the most intense things I have every seen/heard. And the album doesn't sound as good now. Like I still think it's great. But after seeing them play it live, it just isn't the same... I really think they may have ruined live shows for me. They had no stage art, nothing crazy, just three dudes and one chick playing.

Also the opener was Chris Brokaw, he was a one man show just sang and guitar. It was good. All in all I had an amazing time.

sounds good, aaron!  That's exactly why I got into collecting bootlegs.  I found the live performance (and live versions of songs) better than the album recordings in a lot of cases.  I would run over to dimeadozen.org because it looks like the audio to your show is already up there!  8)

Got back from Deftones a bit ago. The show kicked ass. The openers Scars on Broadway were better then I thought they would be (it's the guitarist from System of a Down new band. He does all the singing. And part of my hate for the newest SOAD cds was his vocals, and they were terrible albums.) BUT they weren't bad. Not great, I wouldn't pay money to see them live. (Like as in the headliners) But they did a good show, and his voice has either changed, or he just sang really oddly in SOAD?) He also danced around on stage a bit, was cool kinda funny.

But the Deftones. They fucking rocked. I know one of their songs by name. "Passenger" And only cuz the Nard is on it. They played it live, other wise I didn't know any of their songs. Well by name, I played through their discog the last few weeks. But it was a great show!

Also the Showbox Sodo the bar had spendy drinks, but they made them super strong SO all in all worth it. My drink was like three shots of Hennessey and a splash of sprite. 9 bucks, BUT it was REALLY strong, so it wasn't that spendy.   

EDIT. They got a set list put up. now I know what I listened to!

Saw Death Grips tonight. Err yesterday whatever.

There is a Taco Del Mar close to the show and my friend and I go there before the show (well the two times we have seen a show there. Mono and this one) While walking there I looked into the venue and I could see the main group doing a sound check which was hella cool. I couldn't hear it well enough (I could hear music, but it was super distorted. being across the street and outside the building.)

Fucking amazing show. The opener was good they had issues with the mic not working but switched it out and then everything was fine. It would cut out while he was talking/uh singing?

Then Death grips. Drummer had a base drum and then a snare and a tom (or maybe two toms/snares?) Either way, I was more then impressed with the smallness of his set up. (Zach Hill is the drummer he drums like a crazy man on meth.) He fucking rocked. He also didn't fuck around when it came to hitting the drums, he beat the shit out of them. (The live vids I have seen don't do him justice.) The singer DJ Ride was very good. He is cut super well. Like six pack abs for days. While their set was short it was super high energy. SUPER high energy. The singer moved around a ton and was awesome to see. For the most part their lyrics/albums in general are concept albums in that its all about a crazy guy and what he does. However it's also really intelligent as well. And he acted the part well. People moshed a lot, which wasn't bad, there was one douche bag that got taken out. (either he was REALLY drunk and would fall back for like 15 feet uh... 3ish meters. or just a fucking asshole.) All in all it was an amazing show. It was great when they took the stage they both had coats and shirts on, both came off and they told the music guy to turn off the house sound and then they started.

Their music isn't for everyone. It's very harsh and abrasive as far as the beats go. But I love it.

Ya. Well I have maintained at lest one show a month. (however this month won't be happening. Alt J show sold out... :(  )

But ya, it's so much easier. And cheaper, I don't have to worry about all my meals for when I'm not at home, and gas to get up here and what not. Just a bus away...

Also one of the venues here has a lot of small time (unknowns, I really don't want to say indie but small bands...) And the tickets are super cheap. like 10 bucks and then the fee's (since it isn't ticket master they are like 5 bucks. Some are even less...)

But ya, moving to Seattle= going to way more shows. For bands that I like but not quite enough to drive 10 hours (round trip) to see... Now a twenty minute bus ride and I'm there.

Post by: Aaron on January 07, 2013, 11:42:40 AM
So the show was awesome. They had three openers. Only one band that I really liked. The other two were good, just not really my cup of tea.

I missed the last bus home for the night. So I ended up walking home. 7.6 miles or 12.23 KM for you metric fans... BUT the show. After the last opener they got everything set up for Neurosis. All the band came on stage to make sure every was set up right and tuned right. Then they left (two were wearing hoodies, but I saw who they really were.) Then they left and the lights went dark. They came on stage and right when they started lights on bright. It was fucking LOUD. They didn't say anything other then play their songs. Like no greetings no thanks just played and then walked off. They played some of the slower songs from the new album. Which are amazing both on the album and live. They seemed to sound different live. Might have just been cuz they were playing them all sooooo loud, and I was feeling it and hearing it... The show was packed. People moshed to the openers not as much to Neurosis. It was a great show. No thrills, like there was no art on stage, not even a banner that said Neurosis. Just them playing. and they fucking rocked. The bassist was great to watch, dude played his ass off. And seeing all three of them sing was really nice. They fixed the mixing issues from the openers and not really hearing the vocals, or they were lost in the mix. But everything was great and very clear for Neurosis...




EDIT. Set list for the show. http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/neurosis/2013/showbox-at-the-market-seattle-wa-1bdbb9ec.html


I can say for sure that other then the MONO show, I haven't ever seen a band pore them selves into their show like they did. Even now, I'm still blown away by them... They didn't ruin their albums for me (like MONO did). But damn...

Title: Re: Seeing them Live - Concerts and gigs thread.
Post by: tim on January 08, 2013, 03:56:52 AM
Interesting, thanks.

They have previously used elaborate videos, lights, etc in their shows, so I was surprised to hear how stripped back it was. That sort of fits with the nature of the most recent album, though. The setlist is also very different to the show I saw, but that was some time ago now. That show had a lo from A Sun That Never Sets, even though it wasn't the most recent album at the time. Hope they come around here sometime soon.

Tomahawk in a few days WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!

Flogging Molly is playing here in March (12th) Not 100% sure I will be going. BUT I'm pretty sure I will be. (More or less if I get a new job and can't swing it...)

Also Tech N9ne is gona be here in April. One of my friends from Pendleton will be coming up for the show. He is playing two days, and while we talked about it today we didn't really set anything in stone about which date we will be going... (I can afford to go to both, BUT not really sure I want to spend that much on him.) There is one opener that is different each night. But the main people I would want to see (Brotha Lynch Hung mostly... Err really just him and Tech. Hell More him then Tech...) Are the same both nights. And I don't think they will have a different set list for each night. Maybe a song or two. But not a setlist worth... (also I want my friend to go so I'm not the only white person there...)


ALSO KMFDM is gona be here in March... And I have never been that big on them. GRANTED I haven't listened to much of their stuff. But are they still good? Or have they pulled a Manson and lost all relevance a few years ago? Granted since I don't know much of their music as long as the show is good I will be happy...
Title: Re: Seeing them Live - Concerts and gigs thread.
Post by: Aaron on February 13, 2013, 03:32:19 AM
The opener was Retox. Good band. I wish the vocals were a lot louder in the mix. They were washed in so much I couldn't even hear him at all (let alone what he was saying...) they were really good. They had shit will timed. I was buy the bassist. And he didn't fuck around. He played with a pick for most of it, but a few songs he slapped/just used his hand. He was bleeding by a few songs in. Impressive stuff. His bass was white so it showed the blood really well...

Tomahawk was fucking awesome. This was their first show after they put out the album. So a lot of the songs were new to us. like IOU (which was fucking awesome. They even commented about doing it again for us. And I don't think they were joking). They played my favorites God Hates a Coward, Laredo, and Flash back (and lots of others, but those were the make my night songs) They played a good mix of old and new. And for old men they rocked pretty damn hard (Mike made fun of them all night. Like commenting that it had been 10 years since they were last there.) And after IOU he asked a guy that looked like the singer from Judas Priest if he wanted to hear the song again. (He didn't  :( ) And then he commented about that he was only 18 up there. His mic stand also wouldn't stay up it would bend over a lot. Like instead of a slight bend it would be a U shape. So at one point when he needed both hands he kneeled down to sing and do stuff with his hands. It was cool as shit to see them live. Mike put in his energy like I have seen on youtube. They did 2 encores. Two songs then left, then came back for one more. A more country song. It was a fucking GREAT show. And I didn't have to walk home. So that makes it even sweeter!

Odd things about the show...

People smoked pot, at the show. BUT it's legal here now. So whateves. People had some fucking horrid BO. It was by far the worst show as far as BO goes. There was a dude that got right in front of me. (he didn't stink thank god) There was a really beautiful chick next to us (dude in front and me) taps her and points in front so she goes there And dude taps her a lot. Like Thumbs up and shit. Dude also had an "oo" face (say foooooooooood" The ooo part that was him for most the show. Also tapping random people around and doing thumbs up to them. (he didn't know beautiful chick, he tapped her and points away he leaves she doesn't. She also had a "WTF" look when he walked a bit away.) He would also do the rock fist only not all the way and would hold his hand together while doing it. (All in all a really weird as fuck dude) I also had someone that wasn't even as tall as my chest that was a one chick mosh pit, she was fucking awesome. There was also a 40ish dude with out a shirt that was moshing. He was sweaty, and icky... One person had their had more or less wedged in my pit for most the night. Which I think freaked my out a lot more then anything else... Not gona llie...

I went to see The Uncluded. (I just got back, I don't remember the last time I was up this late.)

The opener was good, I liked his music however fucker would step away from the mic and leave all the people on the balcony (aka over 21s) to not hear. It was kinda folkish (maybe) dude with a guitar and he sang. It wasn't bad, but I didn't think he was amazing either.

Then Uncluded. Which was really awesome. They played for awhile, and it was a good show. However two dudes were there and they were fucking drunk off their asses. They yelled Aesop Rock all the fucking time. AND Not like the end or the start of a song (which I wouldn't have minded as much...) But all threw the fucking songs. They fucking pissed me off. The bar tender had security come over and tell them to STFU or get kicked out. (I was hoping they would fuck up and get kicked out. BUT nope.)

All in all their music was folkish and a little rap mixed. It was good a very new combo. Very mellow music, but good stuff.

ALSO outside the venue they had posters of coming soon shows. and one was for MOTHERFUCKING GODFLESH. I was Pee my pants happy about that. Cuz while I do truly love me some Jesu, Godflesh is still an amazing show. And tickets are 25 bucks and then fees and shit so like 35 or less. EITHER way, cheapish. CAN NOT FUCKING WAIT!

Get those. I've been telling you to get them for years. Do it! DO IT!!!!


Both time off requests for GODFLESH and MONO have been denied. HOWEVER Since I've had the Godflesh ticket for months and I will be buying Mono soon. Fuck it. I don't need sleep. My friend bought his already, I'll just pull an all nighter. Godflesh has 3 openers so that show will be a very long one. I might take my shity old bike with me on the bus just in case I need to bike home I can, and I won't have to worry about my nice bike getting stolen...


For the record Tool was amazing. They played 3rd eye Pushit Ænema Lateralus (cuz its the best song ever.) It was a fucking great show,, the light show was amazing, and the band fucking killed it. Maynard was a bit off a few times but for it being almost 20 years later for some songs it's understandable... Makes me remember he is a human after all.

I'm avoiding recent setlists so I can be surprised. They had better not be doing the same show as 7 years ago

Tool was so good, omg. Like I will never get sick of seeing them live I Don't even care if there's never any new music. In true tool fashion there was a group of drunken douchebags right in front of us but that"s sort of tradition at this point

Ooh we're seeing apc too.  B is sceptical and went on a rant about throwing money at all of 'nard's side projects but gave in eventually. I based my need to go purely on Jill's fb review of their may show

Fuck ya, TOOL was amazing.

I am waiting till Thursday (when tix go on sale for APC) I haven't seen them live before. I wish they had Paz with them. But eh. I'm sure it will be an amazing show.

You should totally make it here for the show dude.  The Danforth Music Hall is like a two minute walk around the corner from my place.

Also, Gary Numan is coming back in December.  21st I think?

I went to Guns 'n Roses a week ago.  It was significantly better than I was expecting.  I didn't think Axl would actually still be capable of bringing his A-game vocally, but he did a lot better than expected.  I also wasn't expecting them to cover "Black Hole Sun", let alone do it insanely well (like seriously, probably the best cover of that I've ever heard) and follow it with "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" for Cornell.
