tangy Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Les Claypool fearless frog brigade. Playing animals in its entirety. But, I am going for the opener. Adrian belew and Jerry Harrison recreating the talking heads remain in light tour. There are several videos of that tour on youtube. To me it's easily the high point of the talking heads live. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Principled Man Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 (edited) Just got back from seeing DISTURBED! A surprise from my friends in Minneapolis, whom I’m visiting this weekend. It was a good show. I’m not a big fan of that type of metal, but they performed their hit songs very well. It was a real test of my ability to do 4 hours of heavy metal in concert after so many years. Opening acts: Dorothy - Impressive vocals by singer Dorothy Martin. Good guitarist. Beartooth - Quite forgettable. Nothing but rage, screaming and F-bombs.

A few monologues from Draiman about depression and addiction in between songs. I used earplugs for the first time ever. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super25Smasher Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Only two right now, but I'm looking at few others. 5/18: Attack Attack!, Belmont, Traitors, and Savage Hands - Empire Live, Albany, NY 6/16: Millington, Keep Flying, and What Makes Sense - Empire Underground, Albany, NY Empire Live and Empire Underground are right by each other. Empire Live holds around 1000 people, and Empire Underground holds around 400. Underground is right below Live, and its doors are in an alley, just around the corner and down a short slope from Live's doors. I'm not entirely certain of the venue for the Attack Attack! show. About half the sources I've seen (including the shared website for the venues, and the tour poster) have said it's at Empire Live, whereas the other half (including the sign outside the venue, and Ticketmaster) have said it's at Underground. They're right by each other, so it's not a huge issue, but it is kinda confusing. Attack Attack plays metalcore mixed with electronic elements. Belmont is a heavy and technical pop punk with elements of hip hop, metal, and even jazz. They also put out a country-influenced track on their last album. Traitors is straight-up hardcore punk. Savage Hands is a more melodic metal band. Anyway, I've always liked Attack Attack, but I'm beyond excited tosee Belmont. They're in my top ten favorite bands, and I own all of their available albums on vinyl. I'm thinking about bringing my records in a canvas bag, and trying to get them signed. Of course, that means I'll have to stay out of the pit. Millington is a ska punk band from Albany. I've been a big fan since 2019, and this will be my first time seeing them. Keep Flying plays pop punk with horns, but they're not really ska. I still have to check out What Makes Sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New_World_Man Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) I don't have anything planned but I woud like to see Peter Gabriel. If I go it will probably be a last minute decision. Edited May 13, 2023 by New_World_Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 I've really tried to slow the number of shows I go to this year, but three others just got teed up.

grep Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Nothing anytime soon. Closest I'm getting to live music is to jam with one of my co-workers in his garage in about a week and a half. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also quite a trip to see John Lennon's son absolutely nail David Gilmour's guitar playing. He knocked it out of the park. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union 5-3992 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Les said he's making a new Claypool Lennon album atm so another tour is likely in the next year or so.

I read an interview where he said he is recording with Billy strings! That should be sick when and if it's released. My big Claypool regret was not catching the colonel Claypools bucket of Bernie brains. It was before I realized how incredible buckethead is. Big mistake. Buckethead and Bernie worrell! Les may play with buckethead again but Bernie Worrell is now dead. I did see Bernie once with his band the wo warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were not Aerosmith’s farewell tour and the bill was vice versa (Crowes headlining), I would go to this. But I looked at tickets, like $400 apiece for midway up in a basketball arena. Seats on the floor were twice as much. So that’s a pass, for me. But let me know how it is, please! I hope you have a great time. :) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
