concerts....who you seeing?

We eatin' pork tonight!

Was thinking about that show. I don't actually know any of PIGs work but I like the current lineup. Hope it was a good time.

Zeal & Ardor tonight was absolutely epic. Best show I’ve seen this year, easily. Just a masterful performance from start to finish with a ton of insane energy for sold-out small club show. Gaerea were superb openers as well.

Only downsides were the two assholes a couple of us had to physically escort out of the pit, and the fact that I’m going to be so sore tomorrow I won’t be able to move. Totally worth it though.

There are some shows you go to and think “man, I’m bugged that I paid so much for that show”. King Diamond a couple weeks ago was one of those. Then there are shows that you think “man, I would have gladly paid 2 or 3 times more to have that experience”. Tonight was one of those. It may be a personal top 10 show for me. I’ll have to sit it’s it for a couple days and see what I think after the post-show high wears off.

Bonus: I even caught the pick that he threw out at the end.

Long way off, but I just bought tickets to see Coheed & Cambria, Mastodon and Periphery in May... should be a kickass show!

did Zetra also open, by chance?

I found out today that my friend bought me a ticket to see the Ocean Blue in January. They’re going to play their first two albums and I’m excited.

They did. I think I would probably like listening to their albums (I do dig me some goth/darkwave), but they were a real snoozefest live.

And after a couple week’s reflection, that show did earn a place in my personal top 10.

Taking the wife, for her birthday, to see Trevor Hall in Nashville.

i heard their collab with Sólveig Matthildur (of Kælan Mikla) and i am going to check out their latest full length album - production sounds good

Definitely a thumbs up for their music. Had a very Clan of Xymox/London After Midnight vibe to it.

Just got tickets to Viagra Boys next September. I am STOKED.

They've become one of my favourite bands over the past couple years. Thanks to hepcat for introducing them to me.

My only regret is that I missed their show at my favourite, super-small venue in 2022. They either weren't as on my radar back then, or I wasn't attending concerts post-COVID yet. That would have been such an amazing experience. The venue for the upcoming concert is medium-sized, but still fairly intimate.
