Going to see Phil Collins tonight. Only drawback is the concert isn’t starting until 8:00 PM.

It’s not his fault they played all his songs 10,000 times on the radio.  His Alamo diorama was pretty cool.

While I enjoy it, you're putting that era over the Gabriel era?!?

Agree to disagree.

In my niche of weird music, people always point to Ministry as the biggest pivot in sound.  But I've always felt you can draw a straight line from their synth music to the metal.  (and enjoy both)

Genesis, on the other hand... wow.  I hadn't even heard of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway until I was in my late 20s.  And it is nothing like their stuff from the 80s.

Well their stuff from the 80's actually climbed the charts, so I'm not alone in preferring it.  Gabriel era stuff... eh... maybe I would like it better if every song wasn't 20 frikkin minutes of instrumentals before the actual song starts.  Ironically enough Peter Gabriel made some really awesome singles once he left the band.  It was a win-win imho.

I feel similar. But the 60s/70s enthusiasts, well.......

Industrial didn't interest me. I have preferred metal and synth music separate. What do you mean there?

He sat in a chair the whole time. It’s a sad reality, but he does sound great!

A little early to give a pass, I saw Blues Brothers over NYE last year, and Dan Ackroyd is the same age. He wasn't high stepping anymore, but he was moving around as much as he could the entire show.

Tool is near me this weekend.  I passed on the tickets when they were $140 each but now I might regret it.  I really want to see them.

I still haven't pulled the trigger on With Confidence later this month.  My daughter wants to go so I should probably take her, right?  Making memories and everything...

I've seen them three times. I go with my friend who has seen them TEN times! Always a great show.

I just ordered Pearl Jam tickets for MSG in March.  It’s sort of a lottery so I don’t know if I actually got the tickets but fingers crossed.  The wife and I have seen them probably 15-20 times over the years but not since we were at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame mini-show (4 songs) they did a few years ago and the last proper show we saw was in 2010.  Should be fun!

With a few exceptions here and there, KMFDM has been "not great" for 20 years. I've told both Sascha and En Esch they need to patch whatever issue they have and go back to making stuff that's actually good, but so far they haven't listened.   :(  I blame Lucia for ruining that band.

I've skipped a lot of KMFDM and Ministry concerts because of the expense and my "meh" attitude towards their newer music... but it's both of them together.. and it's a nice venue... apparently meh + meh = take my money.

Shut out on Pearl Jam tickets.  I'm seriously annoyed.  I pay $20 per year to get "fan club" priority for tickets and the last 4 times I've tried to get them I have been denied.  I've been a member since 1993 but I guess seniority doesn't matter either.  What is the point?

I had an old friend over today and I played guitar, mandolin or banjo, she played ukulele and we both sang. It was lots of fun. My birthday party is on Saturday, so I'm gonna have an open acoustic jam probably.

Shut out on My Chemical Romance tickets.  At $200/each though I'm kind of glad.  I was going to buy 4 and take my daughter since she loves them and thought since they broke up a few years back she would never get to see the even though I told her I would bet everything I owned that they would eventually get back together because of money and here we are.

Tickets seem impossibly hard to get nowadays.  All the bots just grab them instantly.  It's really frustrating.

The Black Parade was so damned ridiculous I retroactively quit liking them and never realized they had a 4th album.

Apparently they sold out instantly in Houston, too.  Go figure.

Willie Nelson.  Took him a couple songs to get going but it was great.  Local Nobel prize winner Jim Allison went on stage towards the end to play harmonica.  No introduction, no fanfare, no interaction with Willie, no acknowledgment when it was over.  Good harmonica player, though.

I was thinking about getting tickets to Sea.Hear.Now in Asbury Park but they are $205 each!  Pearl Jam is headlining but access to the area they are playing isn't guaranteed.  I'd basically have to camp out all day Sunday so I'm probably going to pass (even though it's perfect because I can walk there).

Reviving this since hopefully you guys are going to more shows post-COVID.  So far this year I’ve only been to 2 shows:

TOOL back in February at Prudential Center in Newark.  It was amazing.  One of the best shows I’ve ever seen and my first time seeing them.  They are in my all time Top 3 so it was a treat.  It was also great to see live music again.  I was unable to get a poster though but I’ve been super close to pressing the Buy It Now button and spending $250 on it.  Maybe…

FAILURE last night in Brooklyn.  Great time.  It was at the Warsaw club, which is basically the size of a high school gym.  They were really tight and the set list spanned their entire career.  If you haven’t listened to them, go check out Fantastic Planet and then work your way forward.  They are still releasing awesome music.

I have tickets to see The Smile (Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood’s new band) in November but nothing else on the schedule currently although I’m looking around.  I’ll probably go see Smashing Pumpkins/Jane’s Addiction in October since the wife said she’d go to that…

So what have you guys been up to?

Haha… Xymox came through Houston again and it was a super spreader event.  They play at a tiny, filthy club here.  My obese goth friends were all taking Paxlovid the next week.  I skipped it but just barely.
