[Nocturama]

I got tickets for November - first time seeing him in many, many years (more than I care to remember).

[mclaincausey]

@endo got incredibly lucky with those seats

[Mizmazzle]

Opened my AXS app today…fall is looking real good!

[ARNC]

Well tonight was unlike anything I have experienced before! SUNN O))) Shoshin (初心) Duo at the Barbican.

My seat was vibrating, my jacket was vibrating, my kidneys were vibrating, even parts of my anatomy I’ve never been aware of before were vibrating! But it was a lot of fun.

@T4920 huge thanks – it’s a shame it didn’t work out for you but I don’t think I’d have gone if it wasn’t for you.

[ARNC]

Support from Jesse Sykes with Phil Wandscher and Bill Herzog was good, but in comparison not so memorable.

@ARNC Sunn are soooo killer! The loudness is real ‍

Btw I highly recommend you check out Jesse Sykes’ records — Marble Son and especially Like Love Lust(…) are fantastic. Jesse’s voice is so haunting and unique, and the full band setting really compliments it. Phil used to be in Whiskeytown way back when and I personally think he’s a criminally underrated guitarist.

[ARNC]

@popvulture I had been warned about the loudness and took protection

Thanks for the recommendations for Jesse Sykes - I really liked her voice. All three were clearly talented but what came after was pretty much all destroying!

Whiskeytown

I thought I recognized her name but couldn't remember where from

[Mizmazzle]

@ARNC so many speakers!! Holy skull rattle!!!

[ARNC]

Same place, very different setup …

… and feels like more familiar territory. Mew have been popping up in my peripheral vision for years but I’ve never seen them before. They brought the Danish Chamber Orchestra with them tonight. Another great evening - felt like everyone was having a good time on and off stage.

[Matt]

They had an album years ago with J Mascis doing backup vocals in a few songs. I listened to that a ton.

[ARNC]

@Matt I’ll have to look that album up. I’ve ended up enjoying quite a lot of music coming out of Denmark over the years, but after tonight Mew might have made it to 2nd favourite Danish band status.

the event organization commercial

comical?

[T4920]

@ARNC Glad you enjoyed the show.
I'll for sure keep an eye out and grab tickets early next time, on the mailing list!

[ARNC]

@T4920

Shame you couldn’t make it. I don’t think I realised what a big following they have when I booked - the timing just worked out for me. I’m usually hopeless with long range booking!
