The concerts thread

[bobbie solo]

Jesus....even more bands added to Psycho Las Vegas, including headliners Megadeth & Opeth!



They also added Vio-lence, 1349, Yakuza, Andrew WK, Mogwai & Dead Meadow. This is just a really fun, diverse heavy lineup.

I still miss going to concerts with one friend or a few friends. I still hope to do that again some day. The most people I attended a concert with was with three other people, but that was when I saw NIN in 2009. It seems like two to three or four other people seems to be the best size of people to attend a concert together, aside from just a one-on-one meeting, as it reduces or even eliminates the jitters way before even approaching the venue/arena. However, the jitters are far more intense when I'm alone. At least they instantly vanish once I find my seat, or a really good spot to lean on for the duration of the entire gig if there's absolutely no seating available.

With all that being said, I certainly hope to see the Stray Cats the Pier 17 rooftop at NYC, on August 6, 2019. I also thought of probably seeing KISS on August 20, 2019 at Barclays Center, Brooklyn, NY on August 20, 2019. I might lean more towards seeing KISS, since I'm not in any shape to stand up for an entire concert right now though, as there aren't any seats available on the Pier 17 rooftop, and assuming that this truly is actually the very last farewell KISS tour.

It's also bad enough that I just had a sprained ankle, so no standing for hours for me at all.

And now this also reminds me that perhaps I'm also best left posting about concert attendance after I actually attend them, since I sometimes can't really tell due to unforeseen/uncontrollable circumstances, and such being life sometimes.

Has anyone here attended a show on this current Thrill Kill Kult tour? I will be attending the St Louis show on June 4th. I really like the new record and am excited to finally see the band i was freaking out about when I first watched The Crow. I used to rewind the part with their performance over and over.

Russian Circles - 9/21

Not seeing TKK this time but have seen them in Chicago in the past, they always put on a great show, Groovie Mann is awesome. It helps to go in armed with a knowledge of their greatest hits, too.

I'm in St. Louis at the thrill kill kult show wearing a sisters of mercy shirt.....Bueler?.....Bueler......

The show last night was great. TKK was perfect, playing a lot of old stuff and ending the night with After the Flesh!

[the duder]

Saw Every Time I Die, Mastodon, and Coheed last night.

Go. See. This. Tour. So much fun!

I'll be seeing it tomorrow night!!!

[ickyvicky]

I can only hope it's filled with busloads of old chinese ladies. Can't see them being pulled away from the slots to bring da ruckus though.

How was this show?

[fillow]

Just seen Badflower + Skindread + Dream Theater + Smashing Pumpkins + TOOL EFFING TOOL two days ago in Firenze, Italy. Amazing show.

[renton44]

8/9 - Alice in Chains & Korn - Mansfield, MA

Debating adding Slipknot & Lenny Kravitz to the list. Out of all of them, I am super excited to see Ghost.

[bobbie solo]

How was this show?

Pretty good. One of the better times I've seen them. Mostly full, decent crowd reaction. Wu did more verses than I expected from alot of their songs. Alot of times they end them unexpectedly after the first or 2nd chorus with a glass crashing sound effect. Would prefer a more diverse set of songs, but they always stick to the obvious tracks.

[deadwinterskies]

Caught VOWWS/Zola Jesus/Prayers/The Cult on Saturday. Really fun show.

[virushopper]

Tool - 10/13 (Aftershock Festival)

[Rubeninphoenix]

ultra rare Martyr AD & MPB appearances! Vein! Drug Church! Can laugh during Folly!

[dlb]

Was given press tickets to see Limp Bizkit next week with the lady. Oh boy, last time I saw them was 2009 and it was too much nostalgia then. Excited to see Wes Borland on stage though...

Other than that I'm surprised that there are almost no shows at all for me in August/September.

[virushopper]

The Bird and the Bee - 8/2
Slayer - 11/27
Slayer - 11/30

Nadine Shah last Monday in my (tiny, off the gig map) home town. Truly kicked ass.

Saw INVSN in Munich last week and had a blast again. Dennis is such a great frontman and gives his all even if there are 50 people in attendance.

Met him after the show and talked a bit, told him I was planning to fly to the UK to see Refused & Thrice and he was like "If you gonna fly there just to see us I will put you on the guest list." Told me also the new Refused album is coming before the autumn tour starts and that it will be very radical, cannot wait for that!

As @dlb said there are not many good shows in the coming months, but in December I will see Cult of Luna, this will be a highlight!

[dlb]

@decadent : Was there as well! What a stage dive, huh?

Always a treat to see them live, my third time seeing INVSN, and November will be my third time seeing Refused. Dennis is a great guy! Bought a couple of records from him a while ago which he even gave me in person and sent one by mail (cat stamps included ). Really looking forward to the next Refused record. Loved "freedom" despite what many people say.
