Concerts-Bands, etc..

[StriderXg2]

Anyone gone to any? My first show was Radiohead in 03 (even though id been on a christian band tour at the alive festival in 2000, Supertones, Five iron frenzy..hung out with em!......third day..) and i missed a chance to see Oasis for free in 05, a huge communication error was made and my brother took his roomate instead. Now, in May im seeing Modest Mouse on the 5th. Yay for cheap tickets for good bands.

Hopefully for you the guitarist dosen't start cutting himself on stage again.

Been to lots and lots of concerts. Saw The Sword on Tuesday. They seem like pretty cool guys. Talked with the bassist before they went on and a little bit after the show. The crowd was small and comprised of hipsters and mid-life crisis folks in Mastodon shirts. I was the only one banging my head. Stupid hipsters...

Openers were Priestbird and Year Long Disaster.

Here's their MySpace page if you haven't heard of them.

[Specially Cork]

I used to go regularly and now go semi-regularly.

I almost never go to shows in arenas. I think you get a much poorer experience coupled with a much more expensive ticket price. I'm lucky because I'm in Manchester and we're full to bursting with small rock clubs and stuff. Almost all British and American bands will drift through on tours fairly regularly.

I remember going seeing Billy Talent when they toured on their first album. cost me about £3.50 to get in and we were in a room with about 100 people max. I don't even like the band that much but the night was amazing because the atmosphere was so damn good.

AS for biggers shows I try and get to festivals when I can. I'm going to one in Japan this year with a pretty good line-up (all Western stuff). I'm looking forward to it but I think the Japanese cultural traits of being well organised, polite and clean will detract from the festival experience. You can't even camp there as far as I'm aware.

Not sure which, absolutepunk.net had a post about one of their shows and the guitarist cut a 12 inch long gash on his chest at a show a few weeks ago.

[StriderXg2]

ah well.hope something weirder happens.

[|darc|]

I'll be seeing Modest Mouse May 8th.

[hearld500]

Modest mouse was in town something like a month ago. Didn't hear about it untill it was too last though. : /

[politoe]

I shall be seeing the Mars Volta on April 3rd.
Also, I will be attending the Coachella Music fest on April 27.28.29

Maybe.... I will go see Daft Punk

[Covar]

i almost went and saw billy joel. i regret not going now.

[jaredfogle]

One of the better bands in the local scene is playing friday.

I saw Robyn Hitchcock at a tiny theatre in Nashville a week or so ago. He's an incredible musician. John Paul Jones played mandolin the whole set. Very cool.

Bright Eyes is coming back to the Ryman (Nashville's most respected venue--it's a bit of an honor to play there).

I'll most likely be attending the Bonnaroo festival this year. White Stripes. Should be good.


live music is better. bumper stickers should be issued.

[Zealous zerotype]

Around when is bright eyes coming? I'll have to go to that and yea I'll most likely be going to Bonnaroo this year as well. We'll have to meet up .

[JKKDARK]

Of course, Glam Metal concerts! Poison, Mötley Crüe, Warrant, White Lion, Dokken

Where abouts are you in Manchester Boney ? Every couple months I have a group that gathers in fallowfields and goes out. So far consisting of 1 Scouser, 1 Manc, 2 Cockneys, a few from Oxford, a Finnish air hostess.. a few more I forget. i've been out to a few of the rock clubs around there. Been impressed so far.

I'm on the outskirts. Royal Mail actually list me under Cheshire but in every other sense I'm in Greater Manchester. Not that I'm complaining, a Cheshire address adds a juicy premium onto the value of your house.

Anyway whenever you're next going into the city let me know and maybe we can meet up or something. I'm skint right now though, waiting for my next student loan payment to come through at the end of April.

Will do. Just missed actually was up there last weekend for three days.

I wish I'd bought a house in Liverpool before all this crap kicked off. There's hardly anyway anyone my age is buying houses around here, prices are getting rediculous.

Not so. Mostly good bands.

How was pennywise? I want to see a pennywise show, 311 as well.
