Tour!
sad that i can't go, as Philly is the closest and that would be a bit of a haul, but i'm glad i got to see them last tour at least. well worth the price of admission.
Super pumped to see Lawrence Kansas on the list. I will definitely be going to that show.
Charlotte NC. Might try to go to that one!
San Francisco for me. I am so pumped!
This year I didn't get to go to many concerts due to my lack of a job/good job. I had to miss NIN and Dillinger which really sucked.
But this is a great way to start my concerts off for 2014.
Still no love for mid Canada. Would love for a show to be in Edmonton or Calgary. at least they do Vancouver for their hometown.
The sad thing is, it took 'em 2 decades to finally come back. For some reason they had a vendetta against Vancouver for the longest time and they stopped coming here in the 90's and 2000's. Then out of the blue for the 2009 In-Solvent-See tour they finally came back. It was a big deal at the time... Well, if you want to be technical, the show that broke the Vancouver dry spell was the OhGr show in December of 2008. That was his first time playing a show in Vancouver in something like 15-20 years, so it was a HUGE deal. It was that show that put us back on the map. Since then he hasn't skipped us on either tour with Skinny Puppy or OhGr.
Either way, super stoked about the show here, commodore ballroom is an awesome venue!
And if you really want to be technical, Calgary is actually OhGr's "official" hometown. Vancouver was just where he moved to bust into the music business and actually make it, and he did. The move worked for him.
I'm seeing this a lot lately, so I figured I'd ask... Why do people refer to Ogre as ohGr these days? I thought ohGr was just the name of his project with Mark Walk...

Not sure. He still goes by Ogre. OhGr usually implies the project and not the person.

New video? Tour related? Cool regardless!
Oh my. Montreal? Yes please.
Cranking Too Dark Park at work as I type.
New album is about as techno as Remission and Bites.
Here are a couple things,
first off, the official video to illisiT:
and an hour long webcam chat video with Ogre and Jason Alacrity:
illisiT is my favorite song off the new album so the music video is a perfect sight.
I first tried to get into SP with Bites and Last Rights back in 2001 or so (after hearing Assimilate and really loving it) , and was kind of put off. In the last year though I've gone through the entire discography and I'm finding that Last Rights is pretty well the only album I can't get into to a great extent. I don't think I was ready. Now I am. if I'd started with TDP or Rabies it'd have been a whole different story.
And for the life of me, Weapon kicks ass and I have Wornin, Paragun and Plasicage stuck on repeat.
Yeah, Skinny Puppy is pretty fantastic and I'm glad they're still around. Need to break out the new album again after seeing that video...
If I have time and am free, I'm going to that show on February 10th in Charlotte, NC.
Damn, there's some real good stuff there! Let's see... I think I want the "Guys pullover" and the "weapons tee" for sure. I'm not a hat person, but i'd even consider that hat with the logo on it, it looks awesome!
Managed to get tickets about 2 days before the Vancouver show officially sold out. I don't normally wait to buy concert tickets, but I had no idea the Vancouver show was selling that fast, as people here normally wait to buy tickets til the last minute (day of week before the event. I left it for about 2 months and then I went to buy a ticket through ticketmaster, and they were like "we're all sold out" and I was shocked. Started to panic... til I rememeberd there was a local CD store that was acting as a re-seller for the tickets too, called them up, and with my luck the guy still had a couple left. Ran down that very day to secure my tickets. Then there was the announcement like 2 days later that the show officially sold out.
