Don’t get me started.

In other news, very excited to see Mannequin Pussy and Militaire Gun this Friday.

@Matt agree Matt.

Live Nation Entertainment, who own TM have sewn up much of the major shows.

They can have a bag of dicks.

TM can suck a dick.

And check this whopper out, where Ticketbastard has the absolute gall to gaslight us about basic market economics in asserting that their multi-market monopolism keeps prices low: https://www.ticketnews.com/2025/01/ticketmaster-argues-that-competition-would-cost-fans-more-money-in-antitrust-suit/

Weird thar eTix fees are an order of magnitude lower than theirs innit?

Ahhh... just few days and I'll be in Spain for 5 days of live music.... 31st Rockin Race Jamboree.

[tody]

@injunjack Just looked that up, what a great lineup.

[mclaincausey]

I'll be all the way over in Barcelona dangit

[tody]

@mclaincausey If you want some beer related recommendations for BCN, let me know.

[injunjack]

@tody unfortunatelly the main performers fri-sat are playing really late after midnight... going to be quite tiring weekend but well worth with all activities during wed-sun. We decided to take another 5 days to recover from all that fun

[injunjack]

@mclaincausey This was sold out in October I think. They are already selling tickets for 2026.....

[mclaincausey]

@tody any and all recommendations, beer or otherwise, are more than welcome.

Well, it finally happened – after 10 years I got to see Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp play! I was really tired, there was almost two hours between doors and music and in the end none of that mattered. A hugely enjoyable evening and I definitely won’t wait another 10 years before seeing them again!

[endo]

man, I would love to see that

[mclaincausey]

Yeah it’s an aggressive tour and lineups this time. Last year it was just a couple of dates at Hollywood Bowl. The challenge would be picking a leg. All of them are beyond solid lineups.

I went to one a few years ago with Sturgill Simpson and Van Morrison. The line up near me this year isnt great and I’ve seen WN and BD already.

[injunjack]

As soon as I've returned from Rockin Race Jamboree, I'll be looking forward to Sturgill Simpson in March here in Helsinki

@endo I complain a lot about the lack of live music options where I live but I’m finally going to get to see Bob in my backyard. I have Never seen him, love this album in particular (was my friend during Covid lockdown) and just absolutely can’t wait

[endo]

hope he's in a good mood that day

[SKT]

@endo ha…same. I’m happy either way truly

[Matt]

It was a great show. At least the night I saw it he was great.
