Gigs gigs gigs

NIN on tour

Saw Brockhampton last night for their last ever UK show. First gig I've been to since November 2019 and holy shit, what a night. I don't think I've ever heard a crowd so loud. Incredible stuff.

I'd given up the idea of going to a gig in Vienna whilst I still lived here, had almost 18 months of nothing, then had Monolord and Bohren Der Club of Gore cancelled on me due to lockdown. But now, in March, Celeste and Conjurer have announced a show here, and I'll be fine if that's my only show in Vienna before I move to Singapore 😄

Gang of Four this Thursday, fucking stoked for that. Like with all the different stuff my wife and I listen to, its a relief this should be a relatively mellow show for my old ass haha.

Ever had that night where you wake up and everyone is sharing videos from the amazing gig you missed? Yeh, all my friends at Avail/Hot Water Music in Atlanta, wish I'd been there big time.

Boo, Limp Bizkit have delayed until September and I can't go now.

I'm going to Disney on Ice with my daughters tomorrow...

Saw Wet Leg tonight. Super, super fun! Given that only five tracks from their debut album have been properly released it felt like an album listening party except the band is literally there playing the whole album for you.

Last night I finally got to go to a gig in Vienna having lived her for 20 months, fantastic show with Conjurer and Celeste. Highlight was 15 or so ladies of a certain age walked into the venue whilst I was chatting the Conjurer boys at their merch table. I thought to myself, "wow, the crowds in Europe are really wide ranging!", until one of the ladies heard us speaking English and asked "I'm sorry, is this the show for Celeste? The British soul singer?". Had to break it to her that it was sadly for the French black metal band Celeste, but they should hang around and see if they like it. 😂

About a week ago I saw Skunk Anansie for the first time since 1999. I didn't know any of their new songs since the last time I paid attention was probably back then. I still had a good time anyway.

My son is really into Imagine Dragons. I check out their ticket prices here. 150$ for the nosebleeds.

Just bought a ticket for ArcTangent. Looks like I'm doing Bloodstock and this back-to-back, haha

FYI the album Daphne and Celeste put out in 2018 was genuinely great.

I've never done ArcTangent, but my girlfriend goes every year. I've been eyeing up the line-up, and while there's not a lot I know, there's enough to pique my interest; Opeth, Cult of Luna and Amenra are all firmly in the "I'd definitely go and see them if they played a festival I was at", while Mono and The Locust are must-sees, McClusky and Lightning Bolt are always great to see, and then there's a few others like Perturbator and Jamie Lenman I'd be interested in checking out.

One of our friends is really, ridiculously into The Armed and their whole deal, and St Pierre Snake Invasion are a favourite of my girlfriend's, so it's a pretty strong line-up. I'm increasingly tempted.

Before that, I've got tickets for Nine Inch Nails and Battles in June, and John Cooper Clarke, Shonen Knife, and the Sun Ra Arkestra next month, so a good fun couple of months lined up.

A lot of those appeal to me too, though its probably Zeal & Ardor that attracts me the most if I'm being hnest. 
The line-up is exceptionally strong though, even for ATG. 

A few Z&A tracks:

The new Zeal & Ardor album is pretty excellent.

Lordy, I remember seeing them get bottled at Leeds Festival in 2000, what utter carnage.

Korn and Evanescence are going on tour

My friend's band is opening for Eyehategod next Saturday. Real tempted to finagle a ride to that one, not just because it's Eyehategod, but because I haven't seen my friend in years and years now and I've never got to catch her band live.

I'd go. I tend to go see my friends in bands regardless but if they're opening for a band I like, that's a no brainer.
