Concert Experience

<< < (5/6) > >>

The lonely Astronaut:
My first Show was probably an old 70's group called ''Canned Heat'' - my father took me to a show when I was like 12 or 13 xD Then I only got to see some ''Pub-music'' (In Germany you can go to a Pub till midnight if your 12 or older and drink beer with 16); until 4 Friends and me got our Hands on Tickets for the oldest and biggest and best Punk Band in our country ... So that was the first ''big'' Concert Experience I shared with a Soccer-stadium full of people[Of course I mean all the seats and the whole field].
A couple of months ago I visited my dad in Dallas, TX where he will work for a year or so and I went to a concert of The Killers [BUT only to see their Openers actually xD].
Also Blindside in the ''Door'' and outnumberous local stuff.

Got Tickets for the Stripes in 3 weeks ^^

Ohmanohmanohmanohmanohman. I just learned that my friend took some videos of the Arcade Fire/Wolf Parade/Belle Orchestre Vancouver show on 10/07! They're not long clips but they're pretty good quality and damn good sound.

There's a short only 1:57 minute clip of Wake Up, but DAMNIT it's even better than I remembered it! **watches it on repeat** Honestly, it's really beautiful.

I think I may have some more clips. Anybody wants some, PM me or just contact me on my msn. ([email protected])

1) I dunno. They had a lot of energy in Saskatoon. Dan Dante beat the shit out of his wind-chime contraption. And Spencer was playing keyboards very often and therefore had no chance to audience-gaze.

2) When I saw them, he didn't break anything. He just careened around the stage during the last song ("Rebellion") knocking shit down. Then he threw the mic to the ground with EXTREME ENERGY and walked off. Then the roadies set everything back up so we knew there'd be an encore.

3) Shut UP. All they did was come out and play "In The Backseat" when I went. "Wake Up" was the opener. Lucky. Although Win crowdsurfed during "Rebellion."

4) I'm thinking if it wasn't "Backseat" that they played on the way out, it mighta been "Cold Wind." That seems like a "walk through the crowd slowly" song. EDIT'D BECAUSE SOMEONE SAID "FOLKED UP" IN REFERENCE TO THE SHOW: Or "Brazil," maybe. Or one of Alvino Rey's tunes.

5) Probably Dan Dante. He used to guitar for Hot Hot Heat!


The Saskatoon stop on that tour is the best concert I've ever seen. The Weakerthans put on a hell of a live show, too, so I suggest seeing 'em if you get the opportunity.
