Title: Been to any good shows lately?
Post by: Boogus Epirus Aurelius on March 19, 2008, 07:08:53 PM
Last real concert I hit was Ween back in october which was fricken amazing. Since then I've just been showing up at a load of local gigs, just biding time.  I've been trying to get something together myself, but I cant find an available drummer anywhere.
Anyway, seen any good shows lately.(to repeat the title.)

A bunch. I saw Jandek last week, and I saw They Might Be Giants and Pat Metheny a week or two prior. I almost saw Ween last summer, but I ended up not going for some reason.

     Really, if you ever get the chance again, hit up ween. They really put on an amazing show. I hear they're thinking of hosting a huge music fest at the end of summer and it got a big response.
     How was the giants show?

They didn't play enough of their older stuff, but it was a good show nonetheless.

Iron Maiden last month.

They've gotten better with age. befuddlement

Disagreed. Their Di'anno and early Dickenson stuff was their best.

But most metalheads prefer new Maiden.

I think he was saying their shows have gotten better, not talking about their music.

Or were you also talking about their shows? befuddlement

I like their mid to late 80s work the best, but I was talking more about the show they put on.

Their latest album was fantastic though.

oic

Not a huge Maiden fan, but wasn't their Powerslave or Somewhere in Time tour their best or somtin?
