Excellent show by Hypocrisy yesterday. Abbath (the final of three openers) probably thinks his gibberish between songs makes sense but he just appears to have fried his brain somewhere along the way

[Giles]

Yeah, that's a fried brain.....

I should do another weekend trip to the east coast.

Caught my first MSG Sphere shows a couple of weekends ago in Vegas. Wild experience.

Threw in a Wizard of Oz viewing on top of three Phish shows. The verisimilitude of the tornado was… inspiring? Can feel wind, the seat haptics, screen, sound, and flashes of lightning from strobes behind the screen… chilling.

The exterior and interior visuals get all the attention, but the sound was truly remarkable as well.

One of the cooler things they did for the screen was integrated the lighting director’s lighting rig software and had a virtual version of his rig that he could control in real time.

Phish really stepped up their game with the visuals this run. The first run was cool but this time they were really out to steal faces! I saw Dead and Co. there and the haptic seats really add an awesome dimension to live music.

@endo any time you want

[SKT]

@Matt that’s excellent. They’re playing in KC on Oct 30. Will give it a try

[mclaincausey]

@Heritage_Guy yeah I was very impressed with the whole thing. I’m not normally one to sit at that kind of show but it is definitely awesome to do so. Would have loved to experience some Phil bombs there but Mike had an amazing weekend himself!

@mclaincausey so jelly. need to scratch that itch and get to the sphere the next run.

[mclaincausey]

@dugafola everyone in our group wants to just rent an Airbnb and move there for the whole thing next time

We also rented some cabanas at the pool at our hotel (Palazzo) one day. Magical weekend.

I went to 6 of the Phish shows this past run - week 1 and week 3. Which were you at? I too thought the Kuroda lights were amazing and they could have done that for half the show or more and I'd be perfectly content.

Currently plotting a return for Metallica!

December feels like a long time away, but after a few near misses I’ll finally get to see the wonderful Rhiannon Giddens in London later this year. Very excited!

(@endo @Aetas she’s also doing a residency in Hamburg in November, in case this works for you.)

[mclaincausey]

@bluemonkeyballs first weekend!

Top two on my list I’d love to see there are Tool and Odesza.

An abstract illusion opening for disillusion. Not quite sure that what I’m seeing tonight is real and not just fantasy

[tody]

drove 2.5h each way just to see a punk band from canada in a small youth club in belgium. well worth the trip.

[meatmarketdenim1]

Avett brothers and mike Patton. Such an amazing show. Love the collab album, and played couple faith no more songs and a Mr bungle song. Extra special cuz my wife’s 1st time seeing Mike Patton live and may never get another faith no more reunion. We’re also Seeing tomahawk in August.

@mclaincausey
Tool with Alex Grey visuals would be next level even for the Sphere.
