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 ️

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

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

@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.

@SKT Alright! Yeah he did play a bunch of FITS songs. I was really excited to hear them live and see how different they’d be. He played them in full band arrangements, some of them sounded quite different but in a great way. Particularly Bury Me, True Believer, and Crimson & Clay (which he played on electric). Also got to hear Live Oak and Children of Children which I’ve been waiting a long time for.

@americanathreads oh man I bet that was fantastic. Took me a while to give FITS proper attention. I’ve followed his career and personal life and wasn’t quite ready to dive into the divorce and the intensity of that collection of songs (I love Amanda Shires too). Now I’ve listened to it a ton over the last few weeks and I think the acoustic version of Isbell is my favorite version of him. Intimate, raw and powerful. Hope I get to catch him soon, thanks for posting about the show

[americanathreads]

@SKT yeah it was fantastic - both shows. Me too - it was sad to see how things ended. They both put a lot of it out there on their last record or two each. FITS is a very strong album, I don’t think it’s up to Southeastern or Weathervanes, but agreed it’s a treat to get a full album in that raw, acoustic form. Hope you can too!

The local college public radio station puts in First Thursday’s down the street from my house. Craig Finn of The Hold Steady is playing. Should be worth the walk.

@Matt damn I’d love to see that

[goosehd]

@Matt I’m positive that @neph93 would be going with you!! He turned me on to the band a couple years ago and gets played here at least once a week.

@endo This Ancient Theater is an appropriate setting for an event venue. Have a lot of fun together!
(I am a little bit envious )
