The Killers put on a fantastic show. It was a great crowd.

Johnny Marr was cool too. Covered one New Order song and did 3 or 4 Smiths songs.

But yea. The Killers fucking rocked!

We’re going to see them again in NYC (missed them in Austin as we’re in Glasgow…but we ALMOST went and saw “The Kopycat Killers” here last night….alas, we were too damn tired).

[MC Fresh Breath 4074]

Set list from last night.  Great show.  During the start of “Hurt” there was a shooting star.  I doubted myself when I saw it, but saw other people write about it online today.  /cool starry bra

 

[wild_turkey 3167]

Went to see The Killers in Fort Worth tonight. What a great show.

[Buzzrock 14922]

Copy of A has to be my favorite recent-ish NIN song.

[stc 1462]

Finally got to mark Greek Theater Berkeley off the list, what a fantastic venue. Beautiful view, great sound, not a bad seat in the house. NIN was amazing as always.

Anybody catch the current Dinosaur Jr. tour?  I'm going Sunday, unless J postpones again.

tempted. have been a fan for 30 years and never seen them once. They are one of those bands i have mythized to the point that i worry that seeing them live may tarnish it.

Additionally, as i am in my 50s, i have been more and more reticent to see shows where i only get excited for the 3 or 4 songs that get played from the era in which i "fell in love with" them. re: Stereolab last Friday night.

Don't know if any of you all experience that these days.

[jimmyjazz 45976]

I was fortunate to catch Dino Jr. at Liberty Lunch back in the day.  I would suggest you go -- immense power (and loud as hell).  Just such a great, unique sound.  Very reminiscent of some Husker Du or Bob Mould shows I saw there.  You just can't quite understand how they create so much sound.

At this point, though, they should probably rebrand as Dinosaur Sr.

you weren't at that infamous Dinosaur / My Bloody Valentine show, were you? (Feb 8, 1992)

No, I think this was a year or two later.  I don't remember ever seeing MBV.

Killer venue. Took my sister to see Paul Simon there in 2016. In the middle of “The Boxer” Paul stopped to inform the crowd that Muhammad Ali had died. I’ve still never heard a crowd make that sound again.

[Underdog 28711]

Well that's kind of a buzzkill, isn't it?

[ChuckNorrisActionJeans 2678]

Front 242 with Paul Barker supporting ---   10/5

Clan of Xymox  -- so stoked, look into them for the very many who don't know this OG Dutch dark wave band    ----  11/4

both at Elysium, Austin   (womp womp Elysium, how I've known you but would love a better venue and not to be on dirty 6th in the very wee hours)

My wife and I were at that show, too. In addition to the Ali announcement, Simon was forced to stop playing when people saw Steve Kerr and his group walking to their seats and the crowd started a Warriors chant.

I saw Tom Petty there from the 6th row q month before he died.

I saw Jackson Browne there Friday. Great show.

I knew I shoulda went to that NIN show Sunday. Ive been on a tear of shows the last couple weeks and took a pass. That was a mistake.

[Buzzrock 14922]

Nails always delivers. Seeing them next weekend.

Last time Front 242 was in town it was at Mohawk and sold out (or close to it). It was great. I'm on the fence about going since it's at Elysium. Saw RevCo there and was hoping we'd get them for an opener. It is the last North American tour for Front 242 so maybe I'll go so I don't regret it.

[AnotherUTFan 9750]

Maiden was awesome last night as always. Thank you @thunderlounge

[Updawg 2268]

Was at that as well. Great show ( you had better ticket then me)

[The Maestro 758]

I’ve got tickets to Kikagaku Moyo at Far Out Lounge this weekend.  Seems like a cool venue, anybody been?

It's pretty far out.

In all seriousness, I haven't been, but my daughter has played a few shows there and she likes it.  Sounds like the owners/manager are cool.

You are welcome man. I’m so happy you were able to go, and pop your cousins cherry on seeing them to boot!

 

[Nuge 1970]

I just picked up a ticket to see Monophonics next friday 9/23 at the Wonder Ballroom in Portland.

Cool band but I'm more excited to see their opener GA-20.

Is it just me or does GA-20's singer sound a whole lot like Steve Miller?

if you decide to go, send me a DM if you want.  Female contingent not feeling great about the area with "doors open at 9:30" crap

ah, shit. That means they go on at midnight. I like my shows over at 10:30. Guess I'll pass on going.

wednesday night at COTA saw:

bush- was never a huge fan. gavin rossdale was clearly singing to a backing vocal track most of the time, he did have a lot of energy though. 

breaking benjamin- giant bag of shit. this is music for people who think linkin park is a good band.

alice in chains- 3rd time i've seen them with the "new" lead singer...who has actually been with the band longer than layne staley was. he does a good job of doing the songs justice without trying to sound exactly like staley. man in the box is such a fucking jam live. mostly played older stuff with 2 or 3 post layne staley songs thrown in there. jerry cantrell still sounds good and they can still bring it.

Eric Gales and Kingfish can fucking play, man.

[4th&Five 41558]

PJ in Nashville last night.  

[Buzzrock 14922]

Caught them last night at Bourbon & Beyond and they were great. Closed out with Purple Rain.

[Buzzrock 14922]

B&B Day 3: didn’t make it for Drive-by Truckers but Elle King, Cold War Kids, St Vincent, Greta Van Fleet and Pearl Jam all delivered.

[Buzzrock 14922]

Do NOT miss Mike Campbell and the Dirty Knobs if you get the chance. Basically the Heartbreakers without Tom Petty. Badass and tugged at the nostalgia heartstrings big. Just an opener at the fest but kickass.

[tbone_ 14128]

Who sings?

[Buzzrock 14922]

Mike does, sounds an awful lot like Tom. The other guitar player sings a little as well. More pics in the pr0n thread.

[Buzzrock 14922]

Doobie Bros wrecked shop tonight. They had Michael McDonald and everything. These kids going to Yacht Rock shows to ironically sing along to their parents’ music don’t know shit. I saw an actual yacht rock legend tonight.

Stapleton crushed too. He and his wife are a gift.

[stc 1462]

RHCP last night in Arlington. Flea and Frusciante together is a beautiful thing. Got soul to squeeze and I could have lied, so I was happy. They were better than I anticipated.

[ajax 2618]

Going to see Durry, a young brother and sister band that started making music during the pandemic, out of Minnesota.

First new band I've really liked in a long time.

Cody Johnson this Friday in Lubbock. Not my thing at all, but daughter asked for tickets for her birthday and asked for me to go along. At least it is outside and I can take a lawn chair and sit way out back. I suspect with the help of multiple cold beers, I will survive. 

[jimmyjazz 45976]

Is Spoon opening for Interpol on this tour?

That pisses me off, if true.

[tbone_ 14128]

Not as bad and when I saw Jerry Cantrell open for Nickelback

Or Merle Haggard open for Clint Black

[Nuge 1970]

@jimmyjazz

Interpol opened for Spoon on this night.  I don't know about the rest of the tour.  They're both headliners.  Perhaps they switch back and forth.

I bought this poster at the show but it doesn't really provide any answers.
