@bryaneidins70 . . . Papua New Guinea FSOL takes me back to The Hacienda Manchester. I was at Uni in London 1988-1991 when the scene was beginning / gathering momentum. As I'm a Sheffield lad I was introduced to the scene in 1987 with the likes of LFO, Nightmares on Wax, Dextrous, Tuff Little Unit, Sweet Exorcists, Ital Rockers etc Never lost my love of the music however my nights in clubs are behind me. However me and Jules did go to see Sasha at The Warehouse in Manchester back in late 2013
Some good times, some nasty times. People romanticize the 'summer of love'..a couple of mates at the time had 'Jobs' helping arrange illegal raves. Lots of drugs, guns, and nasty people. It's the reason I got in to hard-core punk…I had to break away from that rave culture. One of them lost it on drugs, the other did a custodial sentence in Brixton prison. Happily I haven't seen them in decades...that said, some of those tunes are inclined to get me cutting a rug to this day ???

Dude's playing London soon. Been doing it since 1988. How many other artists have stayed this relevant that long?

I've said it before, Metallica's been going 30 plus years strong and can still write an epic thrash metal song. Cool video and meaning behind the song as well.

^ not far from that: sleep live. They rule.

I hope you had a nice time @Max Power I should have asked you to buy me a patch and I would trade you something cool for it. Their tour patches are hard to come by. I'd pay big money if I could find this one:

Sorry @Filthy - however they just had their logo patch with them. I was hoping for the green dopesmoker t-shirt and did get one (army green instead of the bright greeen i hoped for but still cool).
The show itself was awesome. -
Billy Strings at the Mishawaka in the misty mountains of Colorado's Poudre Canyon.
Virtuosic 24 year old singer and flat picker. He grew up on bluegrass and ventured into metal and drugs before coming back. His music demonstrates that background. Doc Watson, Slayer, and psychedelia. One of my favorite things going on in music right now.
