Smartly Pretty 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 It's summertime, which means outdoor music festivals, so this seems like a good idea. Plus it'll probably be cool to post set lists and shit like that. So, who are you guys going to see this summer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted June 11, 2008 I got dragged to Elton John a week or two ago. Luckily I'll be out of town and thus unable to be dragged to 3rd Eye Blind next week, and there's no one of interest to me (OMG I should so go see Sean Kingston!!!!) at the state fair this year so I'm guessing no other concerts for me this summer. Huzzah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 Would like to go to the Warped Tour this year, but I think my finances are going to keep me home. Which sucks cause I've been to the last 5 and it's a stacked line up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Epic Narcissism Report post Posted June 11, 2008 I can't believe "Play Freebird" is still a bit. Kevin Matthews is working at a station in fucking Grand Rapids right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Kamala 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 I'm going to see Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers with Stevie Winwood opening up on Friday at TD(whatever corpration it just merged with) Garden. Also want to see John Fogerty headline Baystock at The Maine State Pier in August. I've heard nothing but raves about his recent shows. They haven't announced the other acts but I'm guessing it'll be one semi-popular national act and a couple of semi-popular local bands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Epic Narcissism Report post Posted June 11, 2008 So far, this year's Summerfest lineup can lick my sack. The best bands I've seen so far are Rusted Root and the Polyphonic Spree. I can't be arsed to drive up to Milwaukee for Rusted Root or the Polyphonic Spree. ZAPPA PLAYS ZAPPA ON JULY 1ST I'M MORE THERE THAN THERE. Nice save.

Awesome. Back in 1994 Tom Petty and the Heartbreaks was my first ever concert. Have a blast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Copper Feel 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 Czech, myself and Kamala did pretty well this season in terms of concerts. I am anticipating that "Paranoid Android", "The Bends" and "How to Disappear Completely" shall be especially sublime in a live setting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smartly Pretty 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2008 Me and my brother were going to see them in San Fran (he lives in Berkley) but the price was something ridiculous. I may see Modest Mouse on the 25th if I can round up some people to go with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sideburnious 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 I passed on Radiohead so I could see Prince on his farewell tour... Prince cancelled his farewell tour date yesterday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Kamala 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 Haw! I saw Prince on his "farewell" tour in August '04. Of course, he later explained it'd be a farewell tour to some of his classic songs (Not sure if he classified which songs). Still despite the somewhat false advertising, it was easily the best concert I've ever seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Copper Feel 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 I used to love Prince when I was around the age of 14, but eventually I began to drift away from his discography. I certainly wouldn't pass on Radiohead to see him now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ketamine Disaster 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 Only thing interesting happening here this summer is a Tom Waits concert and the Warped Tour. I'm fucking bummed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 "Paranoid Android" live is a capstone musical experience. Pray you get it, love it when you do. Just got back from Love is All, who were phenomenal and worthy of t-shirt purchase. Seeing Battles on Saturday night and Mission of Burma at the end of the month. Also, a bunch of my friends and I are going to Virginia Beach and getting $20 lawn tickets to the shitty Rockstar Mayhem Energy Drink whatever tour just to get drunk and see Mastodon and Dragonforce. People-watching at that otherwise nu-metal sludgefest is going to be delightful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henry Spencer 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 Battles are boring live. Be prepared for a lot of standing around with your arms folded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 Also, a bunch of my friends and I are going to Virginia Beach and getting $20 lawn tickets to the shitty Rockstar Mayhem Energy Drink whatever tour just to get drunk and see Mastodon and Dragonforce. People-watching at that otherwise nu-metal sludgefest is going to be delightful. I've heard Douchenforce is good live, and I've seen Mastodon, and they're not bad. Of course, when I saw them they were hindered by a Slayer crowd (if it's a REAL heavy metal concert, and Slayer is headlining, then practically none of the openers, despite their quality/popularity, will get a reaction...unless they're Unearth, surprisingly), but they were pretty fucking tight. Seeing Municipal Waste/Darkest Hour/At The Gates on July 11th, and I think Toxic Holocaust is opening for the three, which is fucking schweet because they play a good black/thrash blend. Most of the concerts this summer are just my band gigging, including, I think, one gig opening for a one-night-only Burn In Silence reunion (Massachusetts metalcore band who broke up shortly after getting signed to Metal Blade). Maybe I'll see some other shows, but I doubt it. Gas prices are gay, and I'm already doing a little over a tank a week thanks to regular errands and band practice three times a week (which is about 25-30 miles away).

I've wound up seeing Dragonforce live twice, and they were fun to watch. I'm heading out to see Iron Maiden on Saturday night. Other than that, nothing is concrete except for going to see Keith Caputo from Life of Agony in August. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C Dubya 04 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 Got REM w/ The National and Modest Mouse next week. Probably going to scatter in my annual 3 or 4 Gov't Mule shows and a couple Allman Brothers if Greg doesn't die. Most excited about seeing Ben Folds with a full orchestra in September.
