Almost there

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago Enjoy

@goosehd fantastic show. For a bunch of geezers pushing 70 they still bring it. Like @Giles

[SKT]

@Matt this is very good. Need to hear all about it

@Tago-Mago How is the tinnitus this morning?

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd The same as yesterday. I've had tinnitus since I was 16

Anyway, Maiden are playing songs off their first 8 records, so up to and including Fear of the Dark. Essentially, it's a Greatest Hits show. My personal favourite album is Powerslave, they played Aces High, 2 Minutes to Midnight, Powerslave and Rime of the Ancient Mariner, my favourite song is Wasted Years, which they played as closer. so that makes me very happy. Some great visual effects, sound was pretty good for a massive open air show, and they played 130 minutes. Halestorm opened, in case anyone was wondering. That's all I can say about them.

@Tago-Mago playing for over two hours at that age is insane. We saw the cure a couple of years ago and they played for literally 3-4 hours. Sounds like it was a great setlist!!

[Matt]

That Cure get better every time I see them.

@Tago-Mago I’m a fan of Halestorm,especially the drummer. We’re they well received?

[Tago Mago]

@Jett129 from what I could tell they got more than just polite applause

Any other Sean McConnell fans around here? Caught him at The Kessler tonight in Dallas.

Aristocrats coming to Europe next spring. Munich or Nuremberg for me to see some instrumental insanity

Last month, I saw Jason Isbell twice a week apart in Vancouver, B.C. and Portland, OR. An incredible artist - quite possibly the best songwriter of his generation, and an unbelievable guitar player. He's my favourite artist, so it was a pretty good week. Very jealous of @Mizmazzle seeing Sturgill recently. Can't wait until the opportunity arises for me.

@americanathreads big Isbell fan here and I’ve been digging his new album. Wondering did he play a lot of “Foxes in the Snow”? And if so, were they just acoustic? Would love to catch him next time he’s close

Got to finally see one of my favourite bands, The Used at Slam Dunk Fest '25. Had multiple plans to see them over the years but the band has pulled out every time, so was very glad they finally made it!

Also another band we saw.. Electric Callboy. A new guilty pleasure, they put on THE best show.

thanks @Bailey put them on my to-see list for the upcoming Southside festival ️

[Bailey]

@endo Do it! They are mad, but very very good especially the heavy parts!

[Tago Mago]

@Bailey I’m still not sure if they’re playing an elaborate prank on everyone

[Go For Chill]

@Bailey Nice! My buddy and I made fake All Access passes and used them to sneak into a The Used concert many years ago. After the show, we figured why not try to get back stage, and we succeeded! We wound up having beers with The Used and 30 Seconds to Mars. Then, right in the middle of chatting with everyone, their tour manager spotted our passes and had security escort us out; right in front of everyone. One of the funnest, most embarrassing, yet most proud moments of my youth.
