I’m going to this show at the end of the month. Very chuffed, Missing Persons and A Flock of Seagulls are two of my favorite Nee Wave bands...
Next month, it’s going to be Culture Club and The B-52s.
DrakeTungsten:
I saw Slayer and Anthrax a couple months ago. Great show, but the sound at venue sucks.
I hope to see Buddy Guy sometime soon while he's still around.

When he recorded Chinese Democracy with Guns and Roses, he demanded that he record from a makeshift chicken coop in the studio. They complied.
Dude is messed up.

Check out the interview on his psychologist's podcast.

The "doctor" is using him to promote a book, which feels sad and sleazy at times.
...but it's interesting to hear from the real man behind the mask.

- Smashing Pumpkins (@PNC Bank Arts Center, Holmdel, NJ). This one was just last night. The first 1/2 was absolutely sick. Hit after hit after hit and Billy Corgan can still shred a guitar with the best of them. He was great. Seeing Jimmy Chamberlain on drums was amazing too - those 2 are just magic together. The last 1/2 of the show was weird to say the least. They brought out a bunch of "special guests" and played mostly covers. Courtney Love came out and they did 2 Hole songs (that I think Corgan actually wrote back in the 90s) but she was a mess. it was more sad than anything. Then Mark McGrath came out and they sang "Fly" (Sugar Ray) and "Breaking the Law" (Judas Priest). There were more. Not what I was expecting but the first 2 hours was worth it.
I'm trying to line up the next show. My son came with me to SP last night and we had so much fun.

:cheers: You just named a couple of my favorite bands. Going to see SP in a couple weeks. 2nd time. Damn, I hope Sugar Ray doesn't just wanna to fly to Minnesota. ::)
Radiohead is the one band on my list that I must see still. They just don't venture here that often. Might have to go to Chicago next time they come back.
Other than that, I recently saw Weezer, as well as Foster the People and Paramore, which I didn't know much about. Going to see Blitzen Trapper in a couple weeks as well. Debating whether or not Beach Boys is worth seeing at this point in their career.
