Last Show Attended?

[shoreline99]

Saw the Pixies last night. I haven't seen the band in 25 years, but man did they put on a hell of a show. An hour and 45 minutes of non-stop rock. Paz Lenchantin has the unenviable task of following Kim Deal, but she has definitely come into her own with the band.

Great time. Will post a setlist when I find one. If you can catch them on this tour, it's worth your $$.

Went to see Trey w/ the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. Amazing. Like a lot of Phish shows, the recording doesn't always do the show justice.  You need to be there.  This was clearly one of those examples.  I brought the wifey, who HATES Phish, and she couldn't stop talking about how amazing it was during the show and the whole ride home. She said WTU was amazing    She even clapped during Stash, lol.

If you ever get the chance to see him perform w/ an orchestra, GO!

Saw Broken Social Scene this past Thursday at The Palace Theater in St. Paul.  I enjoyed myself, and thought it was a good show.  They played most of my favorite songs, which was nice.

I did not realize, however, that they have like 48 people in their band.  I heard an interview the day before the show on my local public radio music station (which is top-notch, btw: www.thecurrent.org), which one person described the band as a "collective".  I guess I didn't realize that they cycled through members for each album, or tour.

Also, they're from Canada, so, yeah..

I'm surprised you didn't know they were a collective if you listened to multiple albums by them.
And don't you live in Minnesota, you're practically Canadian yourself.  :wink:

Yeah surprised you don't know that bands like Do Make Say Think, Metric, Stars, Apostle of Hustle all share members with BSS.

I only knew about Metric and Stars.
And Feist.

Saw Herbie last night. Amazing as usual.
He is alike a mad scientist at the keyboard
Vinnie Colaiuto always blows me away - he is one of the best in the biz.
The connection the 2 of them have is unreal.

interesting side note - the 2 beset keyboard players of that generation, Herbie and Chick Corea, both played in Boston this week. I missed Chick this time, caught him last summer.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam, Netherlands
2017/10/06

Fist time me and my so saw him in a big shed (cap 17,000 sold out of course).  The dome has great acoustics and they played a great show, playing almost all songs from Skeleton Tree. List time we saw him was in The Hague (cap 2,161) on May 16 & 17, 2015.  MY so thinks that this kind of music works better in smaller venues. I concur. That said, go see them you get the change. Rumour has it that they will head back to the States in 2018.

How was Graham Lesh?  They are coming here and I got tix, but the lineup is leaving me a little underwhelmed.

The reviews of their Lockn sets this year were pretty bad.
