Priest and Queensryche next Friday at the ATL northern burbs amphitheater.


I’ve been to the Aaron’s (?) just south of downtown-ish a couple times.

Decent venue. I’d go back if need be.

I saw them open for Sammy in ‘85. Reunion Arena. My buddies and I were sophomores in HS. The couple next to us bought is beers. One of my buddies got SO SHITFaCED he loaded himself and Luke’s all over our other buddies Dad’s backseat. It had velour seats. 🤢🤮🥴🤣 His Dad got his ass up at 7am the next morning and made him go over and apologize, then pretty much detail the car.  We think he was still drunk. 😂

Oh, the stupid shit we do as kids…

I believe most of your story. But I am skeptical they opened for anyone in 1985.

A buddy of mine called and asked me if I was going to see Foreigner. I had no idea they were coming around, never was a big fan. I looked up the current band and it's like five hired hands and Mick Jones, who's barely being propped up. I'm sure the hired hand cover band is great, but I think I'll pass.

Krokus opened for Sammy at Reunion in 1984.

 

So basically Judas Priest

Just picked up tickets to see the Black Doldrums at a pub in London.  If you haven't heard them, check them out.  They just released their first album and it is really good.

 

i'll be at paul mccartney in fort worth on 5/17 and then both sigur ros shows at moody on 5/23 and 5/24.

Gonna see Wet Leg this Sunday at Wonder Ballroom in Portland.

Geese on Monday at Doug Fir Lounge.

Supposed to see Dave Mason on Tuesday but got this email:

The Dave Mason show scheduled for March 26th is being rescheduled due to a viral infection on Dave's vocal cords. We are working closely with his team and expect to send you an updated date very soon.

Ministry and the Melvins were just straight fire. Seen both of them a dozen times and this was up there with the best of them. Didn’t get there in time to check out COC.

I went specifically to see COC and Melvins. COC was great but I wish they would play a show in Austin not opening for someone else...the last 3 times I've seen them they've been an opener. 45 minute set...worth the price of admission just to hear Albatross. Melvins always bring the energy and they're weird as fuck so I enjoy that, they've just got so many damned albums I never know half the songs on the setlist.  

this sounds great.

 

See you there @Sbbruin ???

 

Kacey Musgraves, Willie Nelson and Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit headline the 2022 Palomino Festival lineup. The inaugural one-day event will be held at Brookside at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California on July 9.

August 2 - Irving

Halestorm

The Pretty Reckless

The Warning

Lilith Czar

 

I'm going for The Warning. Never listened to the others, but I'll check them out beforehand.

 

Saturday night - Bob Moses
Sunday night - Beach House

For better or worse, these artists pack in bigger venues now of far younger fans.

Win tickets...  

 

Thanks for the suggestion. I won!

Trying to buy Courtney Barnett tickets through presale on AXS.com

 

motherfuck that website is the 7th circle of hell. 

Sharon Van Etten, Angel Olsen, and Julien Baker looks great but I don't want to be the only straight male there.  I dig their music but $47 is steep for me for music I enjoy somewhat (not everything)--not crazy about seeing acts outdoors either, especially when their music does better in smaller venues.  Plus, I don't think there's much to their show.    

 

Pearl Jam on May 12. This will be my first time seeing them live. 

Edited by HornPhD

niiiice. was looking into the PJ vegas show but it's the same weekend as some giant edm festival in vegas so the prices were ridiculous. they could have planned that better. 

not hitting any may dates but doing a couple europe shows in july and okc in september.

Candlemass, WITTR, Voivod, Derketa and others in June in Philly.

Caught Bahamas at The Kessler on Sun night. That was quite enjoyable.

We have Bon Iver coming up in Las Colinas and then High Water Fest in Charleston later in April.

spiritualized friday night, bon iver saturday night 

The Shivas this Friday.

Just picked up tickets to see Spoon and Interpol in September

Nice! I pulled the trigger on the 9/20 show. 

It’ll be my first time to them as well.

 

Picked up Florence + the Machine at Moody Center in September. That is probably too big of a venue for her right now. At best, 25% of tickets sold an hour after sales went live.

Spiritualized tonight at Scoot Inn. I ended up with an extra ticket. If anyone wants it, shoot me a PM. 

Asleep at the Wheel, tonight Heights Theatre. Damn that was great show

Bon Iver on Saturday at Moody Amphitheater was a blast. Amazing show and my first time at that venue. Perfect weather for it. 

I’ve been wanting to catch them for a while now and it really lived up to expectations.

really weird crowd at that bon iver show...it's like people thought they were going to the symphony. have never seen people get so upset about other people enjoying themselves at a concert. also first time i've ever seen a bathroom attendant at an outdoor music venue.

Yeah agreed. Was bugging me at first but eventually I kind of locked into the show and didn’t notice it as much. Thankfully by the end everyone was up and seemed to have come around. 

That bathroom attendant to the left of the stage was on one. Dude seemed happy in his work at least. 

Yeah wayyyyy too subdued of a vibe Saturday night out there. I hate that lots of shows are getting scheduled out there that would normally be at ACL Live

Same experience for Beach House at Moody outdoors. Weird crowd. Lawn sucks. Beer was a fortune (but at least they had ABW tall boys?) I dunno, i drank canned wine just to maximize my buzz value. Not a huge fan of the logistics of the venue but the setting was pretty awesome. Wish they could calibrate the prices with the bands a bit better. People should pay $15/beer at a freakin indie gig.

Wife and I caught Bon Iver in Dallas, well Las Colinas, last night. I couldn't believe how packed Toyota Music Factory was. The lawn was completely full and the entire section that is some seats and GA/pit normally was completely filled with seats. Not an empty to be seen. Always thought Bon Iver was a lot nitch-ier than that. Weird crowd demo too. We were in Section 301, which are actually still pretty good in that venue. 

I have to admit I haven't been quite as into Bon Iver since the For Emma and the album that immediately followed. They're fantastic when they just jam and play more traditional-sounding tunes. I think a lot of his more recent stuff is just way too experimental. I enjoyed it nonetheless. I also want to chime in that beer at concerts has gotten absurdly priced.

Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Evening at the end of the month 

I always pack a soft flask for shows.  This week was Wet Leg, Geese, and The Shivas.  Flask of tequila at each show.  Oh, and microdose mushrooms for the win.  150mg capsules.  Highly recommended.  No visuals, just happy feelings.

How was Wet Leg? Think I'm going to see them in August in Dallas.
