I came back from Owen Pallett's show in Montreal. I love that man and his music. Plus, Thomas Gill is basically the nicest guy ever.

i just found out a silver mt. zion is playing in dc the day before my birthday.

this means i will spend my last moments as an 18 yr old watching a silver mt. zion.

this is the most epic thing.

Oh man I'm going to go see SMZ on that tour as well. STOKED AS FUCK. Cat's Cradle's gonna get destroyed.

Apparently my parent's bought me & my brother tickets to go see Dropkick Murphy's tomorrow night? I guess it should be cool? I don't really know any of their music.

Gogol Bordello are playing near you? Lucky. I'd love to see them. They've played twice in the Bay Area within the last year. In '08 they played at Slim's. I don't see any tour dates in the near future, but if they come back to the Bay anytime soon, I'm taking that day off from work.

tl;dr I am jealous

scarred · « **Reply #1559 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 02:21 »

Yeah, they're skipping out on Seattle on this tour too. I guess I can settle for playing their forthcoming album really loud.

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #1560 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 06:58 »

Guys, dilemma.

Mayer Hawthorne and Passion Pit

Beach House.

This is a serious question

Seen Mayer Hawthorne.

Don't give a fuck about Passion Pit.

Passion Pit is sold out, so I can't go with more than one friend using the 2 tickets I already have.

Beach house is not.

I don't feel much like dancing, but fun music is fun, and I feel like Beach House could just put me to sleep.

Anyway I really just wanna see Dexy's live, but that ain't finna happen.

JD · « **Reply #1561 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 07:04 »

You could not go

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #1562 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 07:13 »

To either? I have tickets for one already but maybe want to see the other one more.

This is not a question of like, having doubts about my desire to attend a live music experience.

Just which music experience would be more enjoyable and memorable in a live setting.

Also hitting on hipster chicks while smoking during act breaks

KickThatBathProf · « **Reply #1563 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 07:42 »

Beach House is not worth it

sean · « **Reply #1564 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 08:03 »

dude just do what you said hit on hipster chicks while smoking between acts. or during acts for all i care, thats probably all i would do at a passion pit or beach house show.

Kyros · « **Reply #1565 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 16:58 »

I've seen Beach House twice. Before the first time I had the same fear about being put to sleep by their show, but it actually ends up sort of mesmerizing you. They're good, see them.

Catacombs · « **Reply #1566 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 18:57 »

So Dropkick Murphys last night was pretty good, considering the opening 3 songs played were 3 of the 4 songs I knew by them. First off, the Wellmont Theater in Montclair, NJ is a pretty cool place. Great part of the city, the theater itself was beautiful. The sound inside was decent, not amazing, not awful. The Murphys came out on fire. About 5-6 songs into the show, the singer started yelling at a guy all the way down in the front about something during a song. When the song was over, he yelled at the guy again. I don't really know what the guy was doing, but it was enough to piss the band & the bouncers off. Then, about :30 into the next song, all the sound goes out. All of it. The band waited it out for a few minutes, then walked off the stage. The house lights kept coming on and off, and no one really knew what was going on. The crowd started getting pissed. Finally, after at least 20 minutes, the band came back on, played two songs, and then announced that the fire alarm had been pulled. They thought the guy they yelled at pulled it. It sucked but at least it was kinda entertaining. The rest of the show was pretty good.

May 10th - Converge, Coalesce!

May 16th - Mastodon, Between the Buried and Me, Baroness!

I'm pretty pumped for both of them.

Huh, they totally had a Mellow Mushroom out in Columbus, Georgia back when I lived there. I didn't realize there was more than one. Also didn't realize they could have shows.

Never a boring experience, DKM live. I'm kinda bummed I'm not going to any of their Boston shows this year. I've been to at least one the past three years.

Maybe you could do a double header with Los Campesinos! ? I'm pretty sure that's how the issue would be resolved if this were an episode of Fame.

Damn I am old.

Well, considering that they broke up in 1999 I don't think anybody really knows the answer to that question

I'm totally seeing them at Greek Theater in Berkeley on June 25 though (already got ticketsssss) and I am psyched as fuck to be doing so.

Well, I'm back from that Alex Lukashevsky/T H O M A S/Luxury Pond show. Sadly, the latter didn't perform. Lukashevsky was really cool and Thomas from T H O M A S recognised me at the end of the show. He's such a nice guy.
