Upcoming Shows

[AlecEiffel]

I remember walking through the gobi when Ash played opposite the Cure in 2004. that was a sad sight.

That was a top three set of that weekend for me. They were so much fun.

[Fourthisto]

Ah yes, Drinkey - Kung Fu is my JAM! So's Jack Names the Planets.

That was a top three set of that weekend for me. They were so much fun.

Yes they were! I was there that night in the mad-for-it pit, second row, taking turns getting smothered and smothering those around me. Broke my sunglasses while thrashing around like a madman and I was never happier about breaking something.

i thought the novelty of odd future would've worn off by now.

Eels were really good tonight. Souljacker Part I! I wasn't familiar with the song going into the show, one of the best things I've seen live this year so far.

[brando4n82]

Soo, my show tonight moved from the El Rey to the bootleg theater. Never been before. What's it like? Any reviews?

[bmack86]

Some people seem to really hate it, the only problem I've ever had was overzealous security. They have the best beer selection (and best prices) of any venue in LA. Parking can be a bit of a struggle in the neighborhood since there are so many people who live there and I wouldn't necessarily recommend parking too far down a side street if you're not familiar with the Rampart/MacArthur Park neighborhood, as it can be pretty sketchy at times. They have a lot across the street that used to be free, but I think they charge for it now. I've always had decent sound, and they have a cool outdoor patio in the back where you can hang between sets that is usually less crowded than inside.

Ugh, j mascis vs nick cave 4/16

Hm. Thanks for all the info bmack! I feel a little better now. Still bummed its not at the el Rey though :P

I remember seeing part of Ash's set on the Area 2 Tour with the Blue Man Group, Busta Rhymes, David Bowie, and Moby.

I have a stub from that show somewhere. It was in a parking lot,under a tent here, weird but great show.... Tallguy, Eeels are , loved them for years ... cr****

Dude. One of his best songs for sure. I'm jealous, E always kills it.

[lt.roast.a.botch]

Randomly caught Andre Nickatina in Fresno. Dude lost his voice by the third song. haha

You mean the show nobody bought tickets to?

That's their loss. Mouse on Mars is great.

[brando4n82]

Hah, like I give a shit what you think about my musical taste, or music in general. Let me go cry in my lawn section.

Chain Reaction? Damn.

[sonofhal]

Going to the NME awards next week. A night of people I mostly don't care about being awarded for being mediocre. At least Pulp played live last year. Knowing my luck, I'll probably get Jake Bugg or Alt-J.

Soundgarden was the definition of rock and roll last night. Such a talented group of guys. Chris sounded amazing, and every one was in top form. The setlist was perfection imo, and seeing one of my favorite bands in one of my favorite venues was just really special. Closing the sets with 4th of July and Slaves and Bulldozers respectively and the immense noise that followed each of them was pretty hectic. Definitely one of the best shows I've seen. Gonna be hard to beat forsure.

Also, Id like to thank everyone who gave me the heads up about tickets being released!!!

[ameeps]

Maybe this was posted somewhere already....but for those who haven't seen it.
This seems like a ploy by Goldenvoice (a subsidiary of AEG, the company that owns Staples) to get on Morrissey's good side to increase the impossible chances of a Smiths reunion....
We already know that GV has previously offered Morrissey a vegetarian coachella for a Smiths reunion.

All vendors at the March 1 show are mandated to ban "flesh as food" by the singer, a longtime animal activist. At his request, McDonald's won't open, either.

[suprefan]

Well the show IS sold out....

[ameeps]

It's been sold out for a while. What does that have to do with anything?

[nathanfairchild]

ugh, why does anybody do anything for that fucking baby?
