Who are you going to see?

[Raven911]

last Thursday we saw Journey and Toto. Awesome show.

[NONOBLITUS]

AWESOME as always , KISS last night

[homerj]

Seeing Dave Matthews Band in about 6 minutes. First concert I’ve been to in over a year. Had tickets to a couple that got canceled & one got cancelled last week but they’re going on with regularity again. Weather permitting which is definitely a factor in Mississippi.

Seeing Gojira and Deftones in a couple weeks. The Acacia Strain is rolling through town in July, so that's a must. I talked Mrs Z into going to Less Than Jake and Bowling For Soup with me, so that should be a blast.

I was supposed to see Parkway Drive with Hatebreed and The Black Dahlia Murder, but PD canceled the tour and then, well, we tragically lost Trevor.

[homerj]

Saw Joan Jett, Def Leppard & Motley Crue last night in Nashville. Pretty awesome show. Poison was supposed to be there but Bret Michaels was in the hospital. I’ve had these tickets since 2019 so I’m just glad it finally happened. It was postponed for about 45 minutes because of lightning but it cleared right up & the rest of the night was nice.

I got 3 nights of The Mars Volta starting tomorrow night, then Gogol Bordello for 2 nights in November and then in December I got Besame Mucho Fest in Los Angeles

[autococker04]

This could be the best festival I’ve ever been to.

one wild day, we'll see how it turns out

[bellicose]

I remember going to a Bright Eyes gig at a small bar in Omaha when I was in college, circa 2002.

[autococker04]

They cancelled the Saturday show for the wind, gonna be a bunch of extra emo, emo kids in Vegas today

[Jonnydread]

holy shit my youth

[bellicose]

Was at the large Adobe conference this past week. They had both Steve Aoki and 21 Pilots. The later was better. I wasn't impressed by Steve.

[EvilCreature]

I had not been to a live concert in over 5 years but I was able to see Rammstein and Heilung within about 4 weeks of each other in August/September. Both powerful performances all in German / proto-Germanic that featured fire and other striking theatrics, but one was at US Bank Stadium, the other a 2,000 person venue.

UPDATE: both shows, NO/PSB and Avalanches, have now been rescheduled for the same day this October, hundreds of miles apart.

If they don’t reschedule again I’ll have to make a choice and it will be Avalanches.

Update to the update: I decided to go with Avalanches and…the show was cancelled the day before. Still looking for first post-pandemic show, will try for Helloween who I have never seen but have been a massive fan of since the late 80s.

[alpha_q_up]

Fuck man, Avalanches are fucking great live, if they ever make up the date catch them

[SignOfZeta]

Yeah, I’ve heard every set of theirs I can find and the newest record is one of my favorite by anyone ever. They were a major inspiration for me DJ-wise and I’m still into them 20 years on.

Since they’re complaining they lost money on the tour I’m afraid I’ll have to go to Melbourne to see them.

[Jonnydread]

Going to see The Mallett Brothers Band next Friday. Nothing major, just a local group, but they put on a good show and I'm looking forward to it.

[homerj]

My wife’s birthday was yesterday & her favorite band (Chicago) just happened to be playing at a local amphitheater. All day i was pissed thinking i wasn’t going to get off work in time to make it but i did. They started a little late too.

[k_obeastly]

Was really looking forward to seeing Borknagar while on the "devastation on the nation" tour in 2020 but covid put an end to that, and then again in 2021. When 2022 came around, the bar/venue ended up closing their doors and then got hit by a firetruck. I really wish they would change the name of that tour.

[alpha_q_up]

Just secured my tickets for Sick New World in Vegas, gonna be a wild time

[evilfishsticks]

Saw Weird Al finally two weeks ago after the show got postponed last year due to covid. Awesome show.



Just picked up tickets to see Ghost and Amon Amarth in August in Milwaukee. Really excited to see Amon Amarth, I really got into them about 5 years ago and am able to go to shows again now that the kids are older and my work schedule allows it.
