@jiminstitches they are so good live!! Hope to catch them again myself. To this day the loudest show I’ve ever been to by a mile!!

Rage Against the Machine in Minneapolis during the Republican National Convention or Black Mountain in a basement in Manitou Springs are my contenders for that honor.

@Mizmazzle Back Sabbath in a small club in NYC is the loudest show I ever saw.

[jiminstitches]

@Mizmazzle Yeah amazing! as soon as they announce there next uk tour I will be buying immediately! Where did you see them? What was your highlight?

Interesting show tonight that had me in stitches. Oregon Symphony playing the classics with John Malkovich who was talking shit the whole time. What a legend.

@Matt that’s some good shit. Whatever has been in whatever water you can find in Mali must be somethin.

[Matt]

I’m betting in a pretty great show.

Catching up on many things in this thread:

A. I wish Godspeed were playing Austin this tour — I've never seen them, but I've heard they were insanely loud.
B. My loudest was far and away MBV, but I found the level of loudness kind of schtick-like to a degree, got bored and left like halfway through ‍️.
C. Would love to see Mdou Moctar. I've caught Tinariwen a few times coming through here, and they're always amazing. Definitely something in Mali that produces fantastic music.

Same here
I could feel the guitar parts in my teeth during the set

My whole body was vibrating for at least an hour after.

Dinosaur Jr is always crazy loud. They moved me to start wearing earplugs. Thirty years is better late than never I guess.

[popvulture]

Haha this is me

Smashing Pumpkins, last night in Berlin (Wuhlheide)

Looks like a great show. For some reason I had it in my head that Billy Corgan was some sort of a recluse now. I’d love to see them here

Still doing music (when not promoting wrestling), contemporary stuff not really worth mentioning. But some of the old ones still burn.

I was cutting a guy’s hair a couple weeks ago. He’s a regular customer named Fernando. He has a really deep gentile voice so it was no surprise he was the announcer at the local strip club. His dad is a customer as well and we aren’t allowed to talk about it in front of him because he doesn’t know.

Fernando moved on from that gig to ring announcer for Albuquerque’s local wrestling organization. So Fernando comes in all school girl giddy asking for a great cut because he has a meeting with the dude who just bought the local wrestling outfit.

Any guesses who that was?

@Matt no way…
