      As the years go by I can’t help but think these guys were one of the best American bands ever.

        ^ iconic stuff

        The first MC5 records and first Stooges Lp’s are longtime personal favourites.

          I’m with you on that. Saw the Stooges open for the MC5 twice. Talk about epic shows.

              One of my faves from the early 90's. Saw Grotus open for Mr Bungle back in the day, sadly, they're no longer around and called it quits after only a couple of albums. Really wished somebody would reissue this album cuz it's amazing, but probably not everyone's cuppa tea.

                  I love the music of all three of these folks.  This performance is absolutely stunning IMO…

                    @emceeQ I'm so gutted their ep isn't available on CD. Lucy Dacus, Pheobe Bridges, and Julien Baker have released standout albums this past year. Seeing Julien Baker live in London a couple of months ago was astounding. If you get chance, see her. I was in bits!

                      @Stuart.T I was lucky enough to see here after the release of Sprained Ankle.  She definitely had me in tears.  Her music always cuts to the bone…

                        @emceeQ I like that. It has touches of Teenage Fanclub, so that is no bad thing!

                          On Friday I had some 17 year olds try to explain to me that their fashion sense was 80's retro so I got to paraphrase quote The Hold Steady… "The 80's almost killed me let's not remember them quite so fondly"

                          Ironically I then spent the weekend fondly remembering the 80's  ::)

                                  I dig THS, saw them a bunch when I lived in Minneapolis.

                                  I'm a huge fan of a group of friends/musicians from the northeast, including this great drummer Joe Russo–Craig Finn has been jamming with him and a bunch of other badasses lately. I'm sure it's friggin gold.

                                      Yep. Saw these guys twice 25 yrs ago and probably one of the best shows I’ve been to. Damn I’m ancient but damnit, those were the days

                                        I got to see SLEEP again tonight. They really sounded fantastic. The opening act Weather Warlock was really weird. He doesn't play any instruments for the most part and somehow uses the weather to make feedback that drones through some crazy amps.

                                        I was lucky and got to be in the first row this time. 🙂


                                        The cool bouncer in in the front game me the set list.

                                        They had woven patches and a ton of merch. I bought a lot of stuff because the ticket was only $25. They should be charging a lot more, I think.

                                        I have been feeling so depressed recently that I almost didn't even go. But I am really glad I did.

                                          Sorry about the depression and hope it abates, but super envious about the show and mementos, what a great night!

                                            Thanks. I need to stop isolating I think. Because I feel pretty awesome right now. I was thanking the bouncer and shook his hand… just trying to show my gratitude... and he gave me the set list. I am going to frame it with my ticket stub. I have a a whole slew of Sleep posters. But that one is extra big. I had to stand on a chair to get the whole poster in frame.
