PromoTheRobot Posted June 5, 2023 Report Share Posted June 5, 2023 I have three shows lined up this summer. Martin Barre of Jethro Tull, War and the Rascals, and Cake. FYI, despite the first two shows. I'm not usually a classic rock/oldies consumer. Friends asked me to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true, unless you go see Cypress Hill. Probably the only group I’ve ever seen that actually knows how to set up and sound great live.

Got very lucky on the presale... Wow. I'm going, too. Bought pre-sale but up in balcony. The main reason we're going though is for the opening band. Drew Holcomb & the Neighbors are my wife & my absolute favorite for the past few years. Druving up from Chautauqua & making it a date night overnight at hotel after what is sure to be a great show. Maybe we'll see you there?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen a hip hop concert, outside of like the Grammys, that sounds anything close to good. Music is distorted and there are 7 dudes on the stage screaming into the mic. Just not good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOWEVER: I once saw The Game come out with a DJ, one mic and a stool and do the closest thing to a live album that you're ever going to hear in rap music.

TheAud Posted June 6, 2023 Report Share Posted June 6, 2023 Tedeschi Trucks Band at Red Rocks (2 shows) Gov’t Mule at Red Rocks; playing Dark Side of the Moon straight through. Bryan Adams/Joan Jett at Ball Arena Rod Stewart/Cheap Trick at Ball Arena Aerosmith/Black Crowes at Ball Arena Those are the shows I have tickets for. Several others I play the last minute reseller game and will grab a ticket right before the show if they drop enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Quick concert reviews The Cure: maybe the most chill concert I’ve ever been to. Robert Smith still sounds great BNL plus Five for Fighting with del Amitri. Only knew one del Amitri song, but the band had a good sound and sounds great live. Five for Fighting was excellent as well. Love Chances and Superman. BNL puts on a great live show. Ed’s voice was stratchy at times, but the band is so much fun and has fun which makes for a great show. One Week is impossible to do live. Still have Depeche Mode and Morrissey later in the year.

Del Amitri is absolutely excellent. Would love to see them live. Have seen BNL at least 6 times but wouldn't go to see them if Steven isn't there. Just too much of their catalog needs his voice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played Old Apartment and Brian Wilson during the set and both sounded just fine without Page. I think Ed said during the show how much del Amitri sounds just like they do in the studio.

This is generally true. There are some acts that were able to melt your face (in a good way) even back in the late 80s and 90s -- Public Enemy was one of them. Boogie Down Productions as well.

One Week is impossible to do live. Caught their show at Artpark. It's become a summer tradition at this point. They are true professionals. And I mean that as a high compliment. They put on such a good show. Added bonus: The drummer (Tyler?) is always mic'd and is usually good for 2 or 3 random Irv Weinstein/Commander Tom/WKBW references.

I used to feel this way, but have come around to what they are now. I've even opened up to the best elements of their new material. This one especially, which they performed at Artpark. A haunting ballad worthy of Gordon Lightfoot. On 7/1/2023 at 9:35 AM, GASabresIUFAN said: One Week is impossible to do live. As Ed said before they launched into it: "Say as many words as you can.

I've seen him perform several times. I was little when I saw the Plays Live tour with my uncle. Later, I helped pass him overhead when he jumped into the crowd at the So show at UB Alumni Arena. The New Blood Orchestra show was incredible. I'm considering whether I'm good with the fond memories that I have and whether I want to avoid the risk of tarnishing them with less than optimal experiences. Also relevant: To his credit, he's heavily featuring his new music on this tour. I've listened to each track he's released (upon each new moon? full moon?). They don't do much for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a gem. It was released in 2017. Was the band performing it live prior to then? Or maybe your girls were older than you recall when they used to sing it?
