kgry Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Saw Motley Crue last Friday in Chicago. Farewell tour. Managed to record this crappy video of Tommy Lee's drum roller coaster. One of the most incredible things I've seen at a show. At this point in his drum solo he's in the middle of the coaster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox73KInDINQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrc Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Jeff Ross was the emcee, he mostly did crowd work and ripped on people. He just popped back on after the intermission. I'm seeing this on Saturday, but with Sarah Silverman, Dave Attell and Amy Schumer instead of Aziz Ansari, Marc Maron & Jeff Ross. Why did Jeff Ross have two sets? I'm fine with not seeing Maron, since he's only scheduled 15 minutes, definitely not enough time for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrc Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Sorry for the double post but I caught offspring, Pennywise and bad religion show Thursday night. So much fun, while making me feel so old. I realized I had not seen offspring live since their tour with strung out and AFI opening for em like, 19 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billya Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 UN tonight, so excited. Third show in a row this week. Please let me know if they still have boxsets. I'm seeing them tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carryonkid Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 At the show, doesn't look like there are any left EDIT: There were actually a small handful available (less than 10), but they were not on display at the table. Just ask the merch person to sell you one after the show, and she will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Caught Crocodiles and Tweens last night....enjoyed Tweens a lot, felt like Crocodiles set was a bit too tame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 saw rx bandits and the dear hunter last night. had a great time! my wife and I were front and center--ended up with two picks and a setlist from rx. they're always such a fun band to watch. TDH killed it too. I've seen them probably 6-7 times now. they played a much heavier set than the last time I saw them. a few from black and red, 3 from migrant, and a couple more from act II and III. probably about 10-11 songs overall. still not a big fan of migrant, but damn 'whisper' live was incredible. you could tell that they were having a lot of fun shredding it up.

JessA2295 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Saw Arcade Fire a couple nights ago. They always put all of their energy into every show - it's amazing and so enjoyable to watch. I was caught off guard too when Win Butler took my cellphone from the audience and filmed. That was a nice touch to the evening and I'm happy I got a video of just how much I enjoyed myself, filmed by one of my alltime favourite lead vocalists. Dan Deacon was a great opener too - he really got everyone hyped up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danh Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Anyone know of any good upcoming shows in Southern California? Preferably in the Los Angeles/Orange County area. I'm so out of the show/concerts loop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Deacon was a great opener too - he really got everyone hyped up. Saw them on Tuesday night and had pretty much the same experience, right down to the phone thing. One of the greatest shows I've ever been to, incredible energy from both the crowd and the band... damn. Tried to see if I could swing seeing them again in NYC this weekend but no dice.

llamaface Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Anyone going to La Dispute/Balance & Composure on Monday in LA? Sort of related... I'm totally jealous of anyone going to FYF on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayermordecai Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I went to the Paramore/Falloutboy concert last Saturday in Irvine, It was Awesome! First time I seen both of those bands live, I bought my tickets back in January so I got the meet and greet with Paramore! I did get a lot of pictures of Paramore and some videos. All pictures and video taken from my phone. http://imgur.com/a/PwErx https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzxmS-fqLY0T6WR9BRRly5-Qc-T2TjiAR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Might make the drive out to CT for the TWIABP/Hotelier/Rozwell Kid/Posture & the Grizzly show. Only been to one show all year which sucks, but is about the norm for me the last couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that's awesome! yeah same here - I saw them live when they were touring for the suburbs (and of course they were great), but I feel like their tour for this album was just on a whole other level. I agree that their energy on stage has just been amazing lately, making the atmosphere of being in the audience much more enjoyable. They have come a long way. I'm sad that their tour is pretty much over because I would love to see them again - but I'm happy that they will be working on another album very soon and I'm really looking forward to what they do next.

birdwell Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 John Hodgman and David Rees did sets at the venue I work at last night, hung around before and loooooong afterwards. I got made fun of by John for playing Space Camp on the TVs and he immediately requested, "last time I was here David Lynch's 'Dune' was playing, can we not get 'Dune' on I place of.....'Space Camp' ". Pretty excellent evening and super nice gentlemen. Tonight? Pinback and Tera Melos....pretty stoked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iron666monkey Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I went to Lockn' festival this past weekend. Saturday was a bit of a bust due to the rain, we left not knowing it started back up soon after leaving once the rain started....missed Petty....bummed about that but I've seen him a few times before. Sunday was killer though. Soldiers of Jah Army, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, and Willie Nelson killed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iron666monkey Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I tripped for like 50 days man. I did 8 tabs and next thing I know I'm over in a field sucking on a cows udders. Then I realized I hadn't even done any acid because I have better things to do and just like to suck on cows udders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessRD Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 I've never posted in here before but last night I saw Death from Above 1979 at Rough Trade and last Thursday I saw Into It Over It open for Mineral at St. Vitus. Both killer shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivannaJunction Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 On the docket for now 9/16 - Gaslight Anthem/Against Me!9/21 - Stiff Little Fingers (1st time seeing them!) 11/7 - 11/9 - Lucero (three night stand) And quick gripe. Restorations is playing in Allston, MA on 11/9 (on which night I already have a ticket to Lucero). So I was kind of bummed. I have a cousin in the DC area so figured I could try seeing their DC show on 10/25 and make it somewhat affordable by not having to worry about a hotel. So the day after I booked a nonrefundable flight to DC on 10/24, Tim Barry announced a show in MA on 10/24. Grrr. Way it goes. Some possible good news though, I thought I couldn't go to the Mighty Mighty Bosstones annual Hometown Throwdown (12/26 - 12/28) this year because my wife's due date is January 7 so I figured I would have to be on standby at any given moment. Lately my wife has been saying if I wanted to go to one night she could possibly try staying with her parents and sister that night. So I think I might wait until openers are announced and then pick what night looks best. Or if none of the openers appeal, I'll go Night 3 cause they usually add 2-3 songs to the setlist on that night. jtcohenour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvham Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Flying from SF to Austin to see Ryan Adams next month - anyone have anyone insight on the Moody Theatre? I grabbed seats as I didn't think I could get there early enough to line up for a good spot in GA, is it true there's not a bad seat in the house?

Twistedshabazz Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Saw the senses fail let it enfold you tour last night. It was like a high school reunion with people i had not seen in years. They played well and the set becides the album was almost all older stuff which was a crowd pleaser. I got to catch part of neck deep and they were cool. No bragging rights was god awfully boring. Maybe its not for me but all their songs were so repetitive and followed the same structure. They could have played the same song 15 times in a row and i wouldnt have known differently. The crowd seemed to notice as well and you could see alot of people heavily mocking them. Get to see it dies today caitiff choir show on friday. 16 year old me is really happythis week...
