Ghostland Observatory

[Aurgasm]

HOly shit, I saw them on Halloween in an empty pool at the Shclitterbahn Water Park at South Padre Island, TX. About 200 people dressed in costumes partied balls there. It was possibly the most incredible live show I've ever seen.

These guys are mediocre to decent on albums, but PHENOMENAL live.

very good to hear...see below

[TonyWonder]

I really hope that they're on the poster but only if they play at night...I've seen them play during the day and it's not even close to the same experience.

[Pixiessp]

Good Lord!!! I forgot all about them.

Yes!!!! Please!!!!!

[microcuts]

They're big enough now that they'd definitely play at night. In the Sahara.

I saw them in a small 100 person local club here last year, they KILLED it. Singer dude (dont know his name) came out and started a dance circle in the crowd and sung in the middle of it, it was amazing.

(i guess they had some make good to the place because they bailed 3 years earlier due to an illness. It worked out great for me: SMALL venue, $10 ticket, great crowd, 3 blocks from my house).

MORE LASER BEAMS!

YEAH! were you there?

[Coachella Bound]

YEAH! were you there?

No, but im there at least three times a week. I didnt really know who they were at the time but i saw they were plaing so i gave um a listen. Never made it that night, but i did catch the end of their set @ Street Scene. Talk about a kick ass dance party!!!!!

Calmer, im actually going to Detroit tonight. My good buddys "My Pet Saddle" are playing. Probably opening. There playing w/ Mothers Sons (kind of a bad rip-off of Cold War Kids if you ask me)

Anywho, you should def come down and check it out. Its 21+ and its free.



Do you know who the GROWLERS are? Theyve made a big name for themselves in Mesa. They live off 19th and Placentia, they always play Detroit and the Avalon and eVocal.

[CalmerThanYou]

Hmmm, you know, to be honest i dont really frequent that place at all. In fact, the ghostland show was the only time ive been there. it was pretty cool. pretty hipster too, but some hot chicks running around.

I am on a self imposed NO GOING OUT DURING THE WEEK regiment, have been for the last 3 years. i cant just have a cocktail or two, and i have to wake up at 6 everyday so i just cook and sit on the couch. sometime ill come out to a weekend show there if you give me a heads up, well grab a beer.

also, they DID kill it at street scene, i loved that set (lasers FTW).

have fun tonight! i live just down the street off victoria.

haha im actually in recovery (when it comes to booze). Have been for the last two years, not a single drop. Thats why i love Detroit so much, the bartenders are the coolest when it comes to just ordering a water. You cant imagine the amount of shit i get just trying to get some f*ing H2o.

I smoke reefer like theres no tomorrow though. Next time theres a weekend show ill def give you a heads up, or if me not drinking would help you come out during the week let me know.

[CalmerThanYou]

HAHA! no no, its not that i have a problem (lol), its just that i dont really want to go to a bar unless i can get shitty TBH. i can just have a beer or two, but i dont see the point. and i can get shitty, but i wake up early for the gym at 6 and those two dont go along too well together.

good to hear you are sober though. i smoke too, so we could blaze and check out a good band sometime

[Daft Fro]

WOOOT

[PassiveTheory]

SO STOKED TO FINALLY SEE THEM. FUCK YES.

GHOSTLAND OBSERVATORY COACHELLA 2012

[SepaGroove]

Please Coachella gods! 2012!!

[chickonmytip]

walked into there set at coachella couple years back and was blown away i hope they come back

[DFrank]

I dont know, after seeing their live show twice it's starting to get a bit gimmicky for me. I do like the lead singer's boxing punch dance moves though.

[Timestretch]

It's all lasers and hype. I enjoy drugs and lasers just like everybody else, but the music doesn't stand on its own. And it's laughable that Aaron frequently compares himself to Prince and Freddie Mercury.

[getbetter]

I enjoyed them at the Glasshouse this year.

[WhatLies]

BUMP. Ghostland 2013. They deserve to come back after melting everyones face in 09

[nathanfairchild]

musically they aren't that great, but they're a blast live.

[nyarlathotoats]

And it's laughable that Aaron frequently compares himself to Prince and Freddie Mercury.

Wow. Does he really? That's...a little embarassing

[WhatLies]

ya their music is made for the stage. Seen them 4 times now, here's to hoping coachella 2013 is the 5th

[WhatLies]

Aaron is a talent thats without question, but I think he compares himself to prince and freddie mercury the same way college qbs compare their game to peyton manning, tom brady or drew brees. If I were to compare Aaron to one of the greats than I would say freddie mercury is accurate

[Coachella Bound]

Ive seen them 4 times now... Its deff lost some appeal, but i get a kick out of watching thier sets w/ people watching it for the first time. Havnt really kept up w/ their material of late.... have they put anything out in the last year or 2.....?

[Vic Viper]

saw them in 09, fucking floored.

saw them again in...late 09? in tucson at the rialto. front rail again, destroyed.

their next album was kind of boring, but definitely better than anything in the sahara this year (barring maybe noisia).

[WhatLies]

codename rondo is a shitty fucking cd but some of the songs translate well live... if ghostland played coach next year, what stage do you think they'd play?
