Live Concerts

@Mizmazzle Ended up rolling tissues and putting in my ears for that reason. My ears still rang for a day or two afterwards…

Meth mosh pit Tool concert combo is totally nuts

Saw them in San Francisco in 2016 - easily one of my favorite shows I've ever seen. They started with No Quarter, friggin sweet.

Nice tip on smoking crystal meth @goosehd. I usually get down with special K for the pitt. Will give it a go.

@Bridger I would have loved to know what was going through his mind at the time.

[Bridger]

I bet many many things @goosehd. Possibly more about Prison Sex than Sober.

[Aussie Ben]

@Mizmazzle I appreciate the heads up, I’ll organise some of the earplugs that are apparently designed for loud concerts.

[Aussie Ben]

@goosehd damn, Tool 3 times? I need to up the ante and get out there more

I reckon I’ve missed a lot of the concerts from what I believe to be the last great era of music.
Pearljam being another I wish I had seen.

As more Meth, apparently it was being used heavily at Metallica too. It’s a destructive and disgusting drug

[goosehd]

@Aussie-Ben I’ve lived in a few areas over the years where going to concerts was easy, not to mention not having kids at the time.

Since we’ve moved to a quieter part of the world and had kids, going to concerts is way more work.

I went to my first live concert in 16 years this fall and enjoyed every minute of it…

I do miss seeing bands live, but finding time and money to do so (holy hell did they ever get expensive) is way harder to do than in my youth.

Sigur Ros this evening. That was absolutely epic.

@goosehd prices for some tickets (and the games you have to play to get them) are crazy. Having said that, some small venues and slightly obscure bands can be criminally underpriced. I’ve had some of my best nights out with sub-£20 tickets. Maybe some options near you if you’re happy to experiment?

@derek111 said in Live Concerts:

What venue is this @derek111? Looks fantastic!

[derek111]

@Bridger it was at the Winspear Centre in Edmonton. They collaborated with the Symphony Orchestra and Choir. Such a great atmosphere.

[Matt]

I’ve not seen them but I’ve heard their shows are great.

Going to see Bob Dylan this weekend for like the 20th time or something.
Not for everyone I know, but always delivers for me. No pics allowed as all phones must be locked in a Yondr pouch for duration of the show. Have to say, it was really good with people focusing on the show when Bob has insisted on this at last few gigs.

@Stringthing75 said in Live Concerts:

Going to see Bob DVylan this weekendtonight

[Stringthing75]

@Bridger lol didn't realise you'd said Bob Vylan. My bad!
