What Shows Have You Been To Lately?

Saw King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard on Wednesday.
They are fine but I don't listen to them much since they are a bit boring.
But the concert was amazing. They really rocked the house and their music works great in a live environment. I was driving and therefore completely sober, which felt a bit weird, but I had lots of fun nonetheless. Will gladly see them again if an opportunity arises

Three videos from a couple of shows I saw earlier in the year...

Kikagaku Moyo playing a song from their second album "Forest Of Lost Children"

And playing a song from their upcoming album "Masana Temples" which is due to be released on October 5 of this year.

The Residents playing their instrumental tune "Cowboy Waltz" followed by their cover of "Six More Miles (To the Graveyard)" by Hank Williams.

Just saw Aqua, Prozzak and Whigfield in Toronto as part of the 90's Rewind tour with my wife. It was on a beach and it was a lot of fun, a lot of hot chicks like 90's dance music! I think I knew almost every Aqua song just from memory from when I was a kid. Lene the singer is still hot in her mid 40's.

This was a really slow concert summer for me.

Coheed and Cambria with Taking Back Sunday: I was there for Coheed but the 16 year old still inside of me was losing her **** when TBS was on. Overall a really good show, Coheed never disappoints

Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson: My friend had an extra ticket and I got trashed pre-gaming. I don't even remember the concert. Apparently I touched Zombie as he was walking through the crowd.

Willie Nelson: The opening band was The Head and The Heart and I had never heard of them. I fell in love. That female vocalist has some pipes on her! And Willie is still doing his thing! Amazing show. I had to see him before he either retires or kicks it.

Poison and Cheap Trick: Another show my friend had an extra ticket to. I had a good time although I'm not a huge fan of either band.

Le Butcherettes: They were the opening band for System of a Down a few years ago and I couldn't miss the opportunity to see them again when they were in town. My husband thinks they're absurd but I dig it. And they'll be back in November. They actually tour a lot.

As much as I don't listen to that kind of music anymore, Coheed and Cambria really does bring it every show.

Shows I've been to in the past month:

Mysteries Lab
Saw these guys a couple weeks ago in Warsaw at this tiny venue that was totally packed and had a surprising amount of stairs for such a small place. Because of this I stuck watching the show in a really awkward position on one of said flights of stairs and ended up leaving a little early. Still, I thought they were great. Below is the only video of them that I could find on YouTube, the set I heard them play was quite a bit more experimental than this:

Coherence Quartet
The second show I went to while I was in Warsaw. We had a nice comfy table for this one and were really close to the stage. I thought these guys were pretty great, especially the bassist who incorporated a lot of percussion into his playing. Here's a video of them:

Brian Wilson
Just went to this on Saturday. They performed Pet Sounds in its entirety sandwiched between a bunch of the Beach Boys biggest songs. The band were fantastic, though sadly Brian Wilson himself seems to be barely able to sing or play at all this point. That was sad to see but also made me happy I got to see him at all. Al Jardine was there too though, as well as Blondie Chaplin—who was a member of the band during the 70s—and the two of them were fairly lively.

I saw Deafheaven last night. It was loud.

Ransacked my savings to fulfill "bucket list" desire to be in the very front row for a show by a brilliant idol. Roger Waters' US+THEM tour was the most amazing night of my life that did not involve sex or drugs. Held aloft a handmade silver-on-black banner that read "GOOD DOG", and the legend himself smiled to behold it, then came down to offer fistbumps to those up front, one of which was me. Shall treasure that fleeting tangible touch alongside the eternal and constant contact of his composition. May he live forever.

I went to see Nick Cave recently and it totally blew me away.

I am a fan, but I didn't expect him to be so good live.

It was a great gig, he was like a preacher the way he commanded the stage.

If you get the chance to see him, make sure you do.
