Then they are as metal as aluminum foil. I go to shows to legally beat the shit out of people in the pits anyway.
Saw Strand of Oaks last Friday at their annual "Winter Classic" Christmas residency at local venue, Boot and Saddle.
Sounds hype!
We’ll always have Boot & Saddle, g$.
I saw Cave In three times last month.
This past weekend, I went to Every Time I Die's 'TID the Season in Buffalo. I skipped the first day, so on the second day I saw:
Cave In (for a fourth time)
The Get Up Kids
Ghostface Killah (yup)
Glassjaw
Every Time I Die
The whole place was going nuts for ETID - Buffalo is their hometown. And around town people would ask me, "You going to the show?" They had that crazy guy in the Bufflo Bills YouTube clip introduce the band. It was a wild night.
You ever see this doc?unwound tonight and tomorrow night, last two shows of the tour! The Union Transfer venue in Philly, used to be a Spaghetti Warehouse and was my wife and mines 2nd ever date.
We’ve seen Dinosaur Jr, tune-yards, Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes, Mudhoney, and tons more at this venue.
Nothing is going to top unwound, though.
Literally cannot believe this is happening; 1st tour in 21 years and with their bassist passing away last year (RIP Vern Rumsey) there was a snowball’s chance in hell of this happening.
Turns out, the guy Vern taught to play bass (Jared from K.A.R.P./BigBusiness/the Melvins) is filling in. This will be like a wake.
I’ve got goosebumps typing this, and will be crying like schoolchildren watching The Beatles on Ed Sullivan Show in no time.
I saw them last time they were in St. Paul, in 2016. I bought tickets on Stub Hub the day of, they were selling tickets for as cheap as $15. So I bought a $35 ticket and met up with some friends before and after the show. Holy shit was it great! They played for over three hours and stuff from all over their catalog. I saw this year, the ticket prices are not quite as cheap. I consider myself lucky.Who got Cure tickets?
Relatedly, who paid more in TM fees than in ticket costs?

I’ll have to watch it again and keep my eyes out for you.Yup, and I’m in it! Scott, their drummer was an absolute force of nature and a dear friend. I miss him everyday.
The entire band never got their due; possibly one of the heaviest ever. Collapsing Neutron Star heavy.
I can’t wait. AFAIK Robert negotiated with Ticketmaster for $20 cheap seats, no surge pricing, and no scalping. I got the closest seated section to the stage and they were just $40. Pretty surprised by that. My shitty way back seats to New Order were double that!I saw them last time they were in St. Paul, in 2016.

I'm sure you've heard of it, but supposedly Ticketmaster's true purpose is to play the role of the bad guy so everyone gets a bigger cut. Maybe hearsay but I believe it.Who got Cure tickets?

I hadn't heard that. That's more of a Morrissey move than a Robert move, IMO.I'm sure you've heard of it, but supposedly Ticketmaster's true purpose is to play the role of the bad guy so everyone gets a bigger cut. Maybe hearsay but I believe it.
