New album doesn't have as many catchy tracks as some of her old stuff, but it really worked for her live show. It was my first time at the Mohawk, great venue.

Pretty pumped Man I have tickets for tonight’s show in Austin but have to sell them because I have court this afternoon and wouldn’t be sure if I make it out in time for the 3 hr drive from Laredo. Bummed is an understatement. 14 hours ago, nolongerU2horn said: I hope SZA shows up for the Texas shows I’m pretty sure she’s on the bill and I was looking forward to seeing her 2nd behind Kendrick. Ive got them on sale at Ticketmaster but if anybody from here wants I’ll drop the price.
May 19, 20187 yr Going to see First Aid Kit in September. Hot Swedish sisters that harmonize like angels - how is this a bad thing????
May 20, 20187 yr Took in Kenny Chesney last night at ATT Stadium. The show itself was great. Less of his older straight country and more of his “beach pirate” stuff, which I’m not afraid to admit I dig. But the Deathstar continues to be a terrible venue. Acoustics were awful.
May 21, 20187 yr Peter Hook and the Light at Mohawk on Wednesday. Bass player for Joy Division and New Order. Plays nothing but greatest hits from both bands. Oh hell yeah.
May 21, 20187 yr Went to Karbach on Saturday. They had an ill-promoted chili cook-off, music fest, fundraiser thing. Maybe it was because it was re-scheduled...but it was still on a Saturday. Anywho...got to see Chris Robinson Brotherhood with about 200 other people. It was great.

It'll be my daughter's first time seeing them so she's excited since it's one of her favorite bands. I'm glad they'll be forced to play my favorite song...First Vietnamese War which they've never played in the dozen times I've seen them.
May 23, 20187 yr Buddy stood in line for 7 hours for Nine Inch Nails tickets and now has an extra. My procrastination pays off!

I hadn't been to BOTG in 6 years. Paid for the parking on the polo fields so it was an easy walk. Got there at 7:30 and was surprised that we were able to walk right up and plop our chairs down 20 feet from the stage. There was tons of vacant space up there. Once the Black Angels came on it was standing room only though. It is insane how big it has gotten since I last went. It was around 10,000 a night 6 years ago. It seemed to be a much, much larger crowd last night. The sound was a bit shitty but it's BOTG. it's more of a social event. My highlight was obviously TFVW but I loved the deep cuts like Empire and Call to Arms. Passover is great beginning to end. Edited May 24, 20187 yr by CooterBrown
May 24, 20187 yr yeah we had no problem getting up close. a lot of people actually started leaving about 20 mins into their set.

It was great, as expected. Hooky always delivers. The crowd was kind of douchey, though. Peter Hook had to single a guy out early on to be ejected ("You, in the hat there - you'll need to fuck off then"). I never understand why people think they need to mosh at a show like this.

No wonder the sound was bad. Guitar tech forgot to plug his Les Paul in.

June 21, 20187 yr Got my tickets to Camp Cope/Petal at Barracuda on July 12. I went to Red 7 a few times but I don't think I've been since it changed hands. Very pumped, at the moment Camp Cope is probably top 3 on my list of current bands I haven't seen but want to. Don't know why they're not headlining, but Petal's perfectly fine too.
June 21, 20187 yr Car Seat Headrest at the Fillmore in July. Seeing Stephen Malkmus and Amen Dunes in August. Might see Beach House for SubPop's 30th Celebration because their music finally clicked for me after 7 but haven't pulled the trigger yet.
