Title: Your dream show/concert/music festival.
Post by: Jolouie on 14 Apr 2005, 21:56
Yep, if you could book any bands for it, who?

For me....

Children Of Bodom and Lamb Of God headlining.

From there....

At The Gates, Amon Amarth, Opeth, Bleeding Through, Mudvayne, and Lightning Bolt to break up the monotany.

That's just for metal though. I like too many chill bands to actually make a fest around them. ASMZ/GYBE, Mogwai, Iron And Wine, Tom Waits, Azure Ray, Bela Fleck and The Flecktones, Galactic, Particle, Buckethead and all his side projects, Les Claypool and all his projects, Clutch, Cursive, Dave Brubeck, Deerhoof, Del The Funkee Homosapien, Deltron 3030, Dr. Octagon, Busdriver, DJ Shadow, The Black Mages,  The Specials, The Skatalites, and I Am Spoonbender would all definitely be in there though.

Oh, and the band/artiste can be dead or alive, don't matta.

My dream music festival would be the kind that had a bunch of great artists I previously hadn't known were great.

It would be a weekend of getting completely blown away!

damn right you do! oh and don't pay attention to all these nayseyers you'll find online that say their shows are blah and blah and blah... NOT TRUE! they are fucking brilliant

also, as to the main topic, well - i don't think i could deal with more than like 2/3 bands in night... so i'd have to say that i would pick something along the following lines:

Arcade Fire

and then

The Smashing Pumpkins

and then bliss

sweet bliss

first i'd get really stoned.  then i'd go out to a farm where john fahey had mysteriously come back to life and organized a concert, including:

no neck blues band
sunburned hand of the man
pelt (reunion)
jack rose
six organs of admittance
tower recordings (reunion)
growing
my cat is an alien
charalambides
fursaxa

and then for the final two acts i would get to see

jandek
john fahey

play live.  that would be a dream come true.


plus it'd all be outside and with cool people.  it'd be a blast.

I want to see the Pinback connection show, all the bands related to Pinback play and Pinback of course...3 Mile Pilot (they are coming back!), optigonally yours, thingy, heavy vegetable (both no more but they could do it somehow...), the solo projects, alpha males, and so on, but just relating to Zach and Rob since that will be enough already though sleeping people, Kenseth's band, is great and his older band Rumah Sakit aint bad either and the other related bands...just too many...

Me? I just want to go to Hellfest or Pressurefest. They always have ri-goddamn-diculously good lineups.

Yeah, I wanted to go to Gladefest, but i'll be too busy with moving out (I hope) starting a new job (I hope) around that time, so I thought i'd wait until next year for glade action, besides, I don't do drugs and the notion of an entire room where basically 4/5ths of it will be full of pill heads is something that I need to be in the mood to enjoy, cause sometimes when I go to drum and bass nights, they just fuck me off.

some friends of mine went to hellfest last year, and said it was the most fun they've had.  i think there's a full arizona caravan that's planning on heading up to jersey this year.  if so, i'm there.

and i'm not sure if i've ever heard of pressurefest.  actually, i probably have, i've just forgotten it.  where's it at?

I'd go to that.

I could never make sucha list. I couldnt really see all my favourite bands/musicians at once. I figure the crowd would suck and I wouldnt I usually feel like certain type of music when I go see a show.

Now my dream show would be (in no particular order):
Bad Reigion
Rage Against the Machine
Rise Against
Propagandhi
Alkaline Trio
Led Zeppelin
Steppenwolf
Dropkick Murphys
Social Distortion

I'm going to see Rise Against and the Alkaline Trio for my birthday this year (fuck yeah!).

You probably haven't heard of Pressure Fest. It's one of the bigger hardcore festivals in Europe, held each year in Belgium, I think it is.

Otherwise, I am looking forward to Swedish specialty Deadfest in September.

Modest Mouse, Broken Social Scene (actually, those two are performing together in Toronto :)), Arcade Fire, Coheed And Cambria, Flashlight Brown, Against Me!, Alexisonfire, Death From Above 1979, Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphys, Rise Against, Billy Talent, Goldfinger, and Millencollin... ... ... come to think of it... that would make for an awesome warped tour or something :P

Post by: Tartar Martyr on 27 May 2005, 10:55
Pavement

Just Pavement.  The show would be too long and would be less fun overall if I filled it with other bands that I like.  Maybe have Sebadoh open for them or something.  Pavement in a relatively small venue would rock my world though.

I was going to make it a whole two week affair, split up the folk and folk metal days, add a whole day of grind/brutal death and a whole day of decent old melo and prog-death, split up the symph black and true black days, maybe a two day history of hard rock starting off with the Rolling Stones and continuing to...ah crap. Rock is dead : (

Anyway, it was too much effort.

NOTE:  Some of my favorite bands I didn't list on this, since I think they probably wouldn't be the same in concert as on CD. . namely, suicidal black metal like Xasthur, Abyssic Hate, Krohm, etc..
Title: Your dream show/concert/music festival.
Post by: a pack of wolves on 29 May 2005, 08:41
What these festivals are lacking are locations. So with that in mind...

Day 1

An abandoned church which has nonetheless remained in immaculate condition is found. Time for an all-night squat party to kick things off!

Bilge Pump
Lightning Bolt
Like A Kind of Matador
Mohinder
Oxes
Guapo
Stalingrad
Nina Nastasia
Robert Johnson
John Coltrane
Submission Hold
The Melvins
Fugazi

Visuals will be the best surrealist films and DJs throughout the night will be Team Doyobi, DJ/Rupture and Autechre

Day 2

Having been run out of the church by the police we're a little miffed and flee to the 1in12 club in Bradford. Luckily, there's some good old mosh to be had.

Good Clean Fun
Chain of Strength
D.S. - 13
Driven Down
Imbalance
HHH (UK)
Rites of Spring
Fig 4.0
Slayer
At The Gates
Gorilla Biscuits
Ramones
Minor Threat

DJs will be a variety of drunk punks and anyone that has some tunes they want played.

Day 3

Upon exciting the club we find that a desert has appeared just outside of Bradford. Handily a bunch of crusties have luxurious stolen Winnebagos and massive generators, so it's time to get down in the sand after a good kip.

Leadbelly
Meat Puppets
Lucero
Magma
Red Stars Parade
Will Haven
Muddy Waters
Charlie Parker
Tarantula Hawk
MC5
Johnny Cash
Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band
Kyuss

No DJs, but plenty of jazz, blues and rock being knocked out by people as they sit about watching the sun rise.

Day 4

Back into a city to lay our hands on yet another squatted venue, this time it's an underground car park. It's dark, grim, and the perfect setting for what's about to hit.

Jedi Mind Tricks
Urko
Anaal Nathrakh
Man Is The Bastard/Bastard Noise
Arab Strap
Acme
Dizzee Rascal
Wu-Tang Clan
Narcosis
Love Lost But Not Forgotten
Orchid
Dead Kennedys
Black Flag

Aphex Twin, Kid 606 and people spinning grind, noise and harsh music of all descriptions wind up the night.

Day 5

After that, a last day of much mellower feel is needed to round things off. So we adjourn to a field in some delightful woods and get our dancing shoes on.

All Girl Summer Fun Band
Billy Bragg (solo)
Mecca Normal
Black Eyes
The Sick Lipstick
Saetia
Manowar
Beat Happening
Pavement
Melt-Banana
AC/DC
Tom Waits
Minutemen



Man, I really am taking this work-avoidance to some lengths.

A Pack of Wolves has reminded me, one of my many ultimate ambitions in life is to buy an old church, mesh over the inside of the windows, install a murderously loud PA, a stage with the drum-stand on the desecrated altar, turntables up in the pulpit and rip out all the pews, then just hold some motherfuckingly awesome gigs in there.

Post by: a pack of wolves on 29 May 2005, 09:21
They actually do hold amazing gigs in the Holy Trinity church here in Leeds. I saw Guapo, Circle, Jazzfinger, Birds of Delay and Like A Kind of Matador there, they all played up by the alter while the crowd sat in the pews. The atmosphere was incredible.

Day 2

Having been run out of the church by the police we're a little miffed and flee to the 1in12 club in Bradford. Luckily, there's some good old mosh to be had.

Good Clean Fun
Chain of Strength
D.S. - 13
Driven Down
Imbalance
HHH (UK)
Rites of Spring
Fig 4.0
Slayer
At The Gates
Gorilla Biscuits
Ramones
Minor Threat

DJs will be a variety of drunk punks and anyone that has some tunes they want played.


thats quite funny because we do have the following lineup at 1in12 pretty soon: (http://myspace-216.vo.llnwd.net/00815/61/22/815922216_l.jpg)

and 2 out of the 4 members of the dauntless elite were in fig 4.0 aswell as martin the barman's description of uya at their last gig here as "shiiiit minor threat are back from the dead"

You just made a mistake. I have already compiled a dream festival using the live MP3s I have on my computer, from setlists to set lengths. So I'm just going to copy and paste.

1. I warn you, it's long.

2. I know it's incredibly sad and weird for me to have done this, but I'm pretty sure it's because of autism making me obsess over stuff like this, so please don't take the piss. I even have a fucking acoustic tent I'm that obsessed, because I had so many 'acoustic live version' MP3s.

Pavement

Just Pavement.  The show would be too long and would be less fun overall if I filled it with other bands that I like.  Maybe have Sebadoh open for them or something.  Pavement in a relatively small venue would rock my world though.

Id love to go see Neutral Milk Hotel at one of the gigs where they didnt suck ass. (unlikely)

Just one wish: to see the Mountain Goats again when both John Darnielle and I are feeling well.  I saw the band in L.A. on the 14th, and while I think it was a good show nonetheless, I would love to see them in prime condition.

Miune would be a bunch of bands and artists that I had never heard of before, but I thought were fucking awesome. There is no better way to discover new music than being blown away live.

I have seen him do Steinbolt live. Fuck me.

Going on the threads I've seen of what music you're into, I'm guessing your festival won't have an acoustic tent? Unless it's just Tom Leher playing for four hours straight.

Actually, of the four bands so far properly fixed up for my virtual festival, 2, including the headliner, are almost entirely acoustic, rendering such a consideration somewhat redundant. And I could easily fix up an acoustic tent from my favourite bands anyway. Many of them have released acoustic EPs or even LPs, and some of them are just acoustic. All of them have acoustic tracks. Bitching classical guitar and piano instrumentals are one of the hallmarks of European metal.

Well, shut me up.

I was actually pretty pleased when I got Bob Dylan: Live 1966 because one disc was entirely acoustic, so I had a proper headliner for the acoustic tent.

I'm not going to limit myself with silly things like "not putting bands there who aren't broken up" or "bands who were all in existence at one time." So, I'd want, in no particular order:

Swans (probably early, because damn, early Swans would be an unforgettable live experience. But any Swans would be great. So would the Angels of Light or Gira solo, for that matter.)
Sonic Youth (Confusion or Bad Moon-era)
Pixies (preferably pre-breakup, with lots of Bossanova and Come on Pilgrim songs, but I'm not complaining either way)
Ramones (Road to Ruin-era, with songs spread pretty evenly between their first four albums, preferably)
Television
The Velvet Underground (preferably around Nico era)
Big Black
