Fun Stuff > BAND
Gigs you've been to and your thoughts.
sean:
Are we still supposed to use this thread about shows we've been to? Oh well, I'll use it anyway.
So last night I saw The Sea and Cake play at the Black Cat. It was a pretty rad show! They sounded wonderful and played their songs wonderfully. My only complaint is that they played for a good hour and a half, which I think is a bit too long for a band like The Sea and Cake. As good as they are, their songs sound too similar for them to play that long. Other than that though, they were awesome.
CarrionMan:
I got to go to the Who: Maximum R&B. It was pretty awesome for them being so damn old. The opener was pretty well, and we also had some pretty kickass seats.
doombilly:
I saw Lake the other night and they were really good.
valley_parade:
Local(ish) shoooooooow last night.
Next President: My friend Noel fronts this band. They're pretty good, but as we were talking about on the ride home, Andy (the bass player) really needs to pick it up on stage. He kinda keeps to himself and it seems to detract from the overall show. They generally rocked, though.
Routine Homecoming: Started off slow and I guess droney? I think I texted someone and called them "folky slowcore drone". But they got better, and I was pleasantly surprised.
The New Collisions: Female-fronted kinda 80s-ish new wave/punk? Hell of energetic, hell of fun. You should go see them if they're in your town.
As I Lay Awake In Ruin: I think the shitty name says it all. Have you ever heard one of those horrendously generic emo-pop bands? Then you've heard As I Lay Away In Ruin. The ONE upside to their set was that they played a Reggie and the Full Effect cover ("Get Well Soon"). That and the girl selling their merch was kinda cute. YOU'RE NOT VERY GOOD, GUYS.
Garrett A.D:
My giggage is mainly metal. Given most of my friends are.
Top gig goes to Stone Sour. Corey Taylor is masterful at crowd management and Jim Root's guitaring was as tight as ever.
I also saw Serj Tankian (the frontman from System of a Down) in his own solo project. Was a good night, Serj seems a lot happier doing his own thing than playing with System.
On a tangential note, I wants the top hat.
