Going to any shows soon?/See any lately?

[Raskovnik]

I'm just curious to see any shows my fellow board members might be going to in the coming months. I just found out that Joanna Newsom is going to be playing at the same theatre that Neutral Milk Hotel played at at the show I went to last year, so I immediately snapped up a ticket to that. Hopefully it's a good time. How about you guys? I love hearing about experiences at shows or shows people are going to, so this is a catch-all thread for all of that.

Going to see Ghost in May.

[Jake, The Jake, Jake]

I saw the Protomen about a month ago. That show f***ing ruled.

[Derk!]

Going to see Atmosphere tomorrow night.

[Cranjis McBasketball]

Just found out Piff the Magic Dragon is gonna play Calgary in May. Seriously might get tickets to see him.

[Joe Neglia]

Saw AC/DC earlier this week. Great show. They closed out with the song that got me into them when I was a kid (For Those About to Rock). Angus spent 10-15 minutes before the encore just straight-up shredding by himself, never seen him do that before.

I don't have a ticket to anything. I'm going on a cross-country trip in May though, so I'm going to try and scout out some shows. At The Drive-In is a ticket I'm interested in.

This thread plus insanity-induced insomnia or is it the other way around have made me do some research.

I checked out Ghost based on this post, they're f***ing cool. Gonna try and see one of those May shows.

Also (I live right between Cleveland and Akron OH so keep in mind...),

-Jim Norton is performing on March 11th, never seen live comedy before and I enjoy his brand of anger and vulgarity

-Chon on 3/29, not a big fan but my sister loves them and insists I see them live so I might

-f***ing SINBAD on 4/3, I hope he wears something made out of windbreaker!

-Melvins on 4/21, would really help my alt-cred

-Tech N9ne will be here 4/23

-And P-Funk on 5/7

If I can get to two or three of those I'll be happy.

Saw The Flaming Lips recently.

Was quite disappointed. Seen them before and they were much better then. But last time, Wayne Coyne's voice sounded crackly, might not have been at 100%. And he talked.. A lot ... Between every song he would drone on a for a few minutes talking some random bullshit.. A lot of people in the crowd were shouting 'just get on with it!' .. And cause he prattled on so much they did no play a lot of songs. Some noteworthy songs they did not play was The Yeah Yeah Song (With All Your Power), Race For The Prize, Waiting For Superman..

It's was visually spectacular though. Had their usually assortment of balloons, confetti and people in bizarre costumes.

My dad saw Sinbad twice in a year, I believe, probably on the casino circuit, and apparently felt he was worth seeing twice in a year, so you've gotta see what the fuss is about.

Last night I went to see the classic hardcore band Snapcase do a reunion show to celebrate their 25th anniversary. Awesome part was during a break in their set, a video played featuring well wishes sent by some of their peers as well as from musicians they inspired (i.e. Tim from Rise Against, the dude from awolnation, Papa Roach).

Next show I'm going to is The Wonder Years next Saturday.

[DASH 243✅]

Just went last night to see the yawpers and the supersuckers.
It was a bad ass show

[triplethreatmark]

The last show(non-wrestling) I went to was a f*** the Facts show at the Complex in Glendale, CA. It was the night of Black Friday, so barely anybody was at the show, but FTF and the other opening bands killed. Now that I'm in Sacramento, I'm still trying to find out where the best venues for metal/punk are.

[Razor Gives It A 4/10]

I might go see Cage The Elephant, Silversun Pickups, Foals, and Bear Hands in a couple weeks. Not sure yet.

[BRAINFADE]

Going to New York in June, and going to see At The Drive-In and then the Cure two days later in MSG.

[PsychoGoatee]

I saw Enforcer and Cauldron last month, along with Warbringer. Lotta fun, much metal.

I also make sure to see Electric Six every year, gotta love Electric Six.

[Deleted]

I just learned Neutral Milk Hotel is an actual band and not a joke band name made up on Parks and Rec. Mind blown. Also I planning on seeing The Offspring in March.

[Citizen Snips Has Left]

Going to see Laura Stevenson and Gogol Bordello in late March/early April. First time I've seen two shows in the same week in quite some time.

[4real]

Seeing While She Sleeps in about a month then Deftones in June. Haven't been to a gig for 3 years or so so I'm eager to go to one again.
