Stenners Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 You know when you see a band & you think CHRIST THEY WERE GOOD! I must see them again, or sigh I have to see them again, the venue/soundmen ruined it! Or maybe a longer set, list bands you MUST see again. Smashing Pumpkins - Very good live but it wasn't so much the fact it was how good it was that I have to see them again (if anything I don't think I will get such a strong setlist from them again) but for some reasson I STILL think I needed just a bit... more. I felt very hungover when I saw them & tired but still enjoyed it... what does that tell you? Modest Mouse - The setlist wasn't too great & the venue was terrible, no drinks allowed on the actual floor, the most anal bouncers & staff in general coupled with terrible sound and outrageous prices made this gig pretty much a nightmare. When Issacc clocked onto this however he deffinatly made the show much better and to top it all off played 3 of their best songs, their best new song and then attacked one of the afformentioned cunt bouncers for manhandling a fan by jumping into the crowd and taking a swing at him. I just need a better venue! !!! - 40mins wasn't enough for this band, one of the most uplifitng bands ever, everyone was dancing in the Dance Tent even the scepticals who looked shit bored by the side. I haven't moved so much at a gig before, one of the best live bands I have ever seen if not THE best. Man Man - Read above really, for a band on at 4pm the humour implied got everyone uplifted the tightest band as well where even when things went wrong the effortlessly continued playing improvising, When the vocalist ran off the stage to find a stool after he broke the first one was one of the highlight just because they saved it so well we a scream off with the crowd. Future Of The Left - Crunchy heavy music was on wayyyy too early, highlight was when they got the crowd to remove the safety barrier and encouraged us to dance with them on the stage, stage crowd invasion + the best responses to heckles ever make these a winner. Ruby Suns - Hypnotic, but the set I saw them at was only 20minutes long! To add insult to this rather insulting injury the venue was terrible, the worst place ever but they were still the best part of the weekend!

woodyloveslinkin Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Nightwish. Absolutely. Seeing Toumas take his shirt off made my day. Killing Heidi. Meh. It's on my list but I wouldn't die to see them again. Quote Mia Elizabeth 18/2/10 Kate Helena 8/7/11 My baby girls <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friðbjörn Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 hmm out of what I've seen lately sigur rós really dunno how the new stuff will play live as I haven't heard it, but it will be interesting celestine I've always loved the brutalness to their music more live so much more raw and raged muck heavy, gritty, dissonant, not quite fast paced but still energetic worriedaboutsatan very chilled and nice Quote [broken External Image]:http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2784/lpfas08mostintelligentym8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahninator Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Linkin Park Foo Fighters Alter Bridge Jimmy Eat World Against Me! Julien-K Sick Puppies John Fogerty any band I've seen before except Evanescence, HIM, Taking Back Sunday, and My Chemical Romance. I don't go to a show unless it royally owns.

Stenners Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 Have u ever been to a show with less then 500 people in attendance??!?!?! if you havent your seriously missing out as I find gigs with over 500ppl loose a lot of the magic unless the band is stadium rock ready, Foo Fighters would work in that scenario as do Muse. I have seen LP and from what I recall it was very mediocre, i got no sense the band was plaing for us, the crowd was too big and their live set felt so impersonal with a backing track playing such a heavy part into it. My Chemichal Romance are INDEED terrible live Quote Delete my account, the is no reason why it should be against standard procediure, do it do it do it.

Jeezy Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I saw Linkin Park and it was a crowd with 1000 people that was cool Then I saw them again with a crowd of 10.000 people and it was not that special. So I would go again to see them with a crowd of 1000...but that barely happens. What I really want to see is a club show of Lupe Fiasco that would be awesome. Haven't seen him yet though.

DarknessLover Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 really? I mean quality wise MCR sucked, but the show they put on was great, fantastic use of pyrotechnics Quote The Park is Back? No way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stenners Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 really? I mean quality wise MCR sucked, but the show they put on was great, fantastic use of pyrotechnics My Chemichal Romance have terrible banter, a loose sloppy sound live, they didnt have the Pyrotechnics when I saw them & just because a turd has a sparkler in it's hand dont make the band any more valid to see live, wanna see fireworks then go to a bloody bonfire.

DarknessLover Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Obviously, but still they had a good feel to them, musically, give or take, but the visuals were really nice lol Quote The Park is Back? No way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friðbjörn Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 most concerts I go to have like 10-20 people attending lol Quote [broken External Image]:http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2784/lpfas08mostintelligentym8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stenners Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 For me it depends on where you are standing More to the front has way more atmosphere than in the back As a rule the bigger the venue the more empty the sound is likely to be, also the front of a massive crowd, though does offer a great degree of atmosphere still doent make it feel nearly as personal as it could be. I saw Kings Of Leon twice last year, once at Reading with several thousand and once at brighton with several hundered and i know which one was better.

Yeah I see your point, concerts are also better in normal 'concert rooms' than on a festival , because a festival is so much bigger, so they don't have alot of contact with the audience Quote ιη тнє ѕιℓєη¢є σƒ тнє ∂αякηєѕѕ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stllmn8j Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 My Chemichal Romance have terrible banter, a loose sloppy sound live, they didnt have the Pyrotechnics when I saw them & just because a turd has a sparkler in it's hand dont make the band any more valid to see live, wanna see fireworks then go to a bloody bonfire. The only decent thing was the guitar plaer had a couple of decent moments,other wise i had to eal with all their obsessed "emo" fans who all dress the same,and the lead singer trying to prove how gay he was to the crowd with his not funny jokes and crowd convos P.S. The pyro was cool though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usiel Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Well, the first show I saw was a Deep Purple live. I was 13 years old and it was really, really, really amazing!! of course, this was a experience I should live again.. but, unfortunately, I think I wont be lucky more times, at least for enjoying a live of this band. I guess it's more than impossible (super impossible) than I have another opportunity, even more when luck seems that it doesnt think in me: three weeks ago Scorpions play not too far away from where I live now, but I couldnt go. I know Metallica and Linkin Park will play in Portugal soon (if they havent already played)... and in july Iron Maiden will play as well... so, I think I can not say that I must see a live if not that I hope to see a live :'( Quote [broken External Image]:http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/1977/luna640gp0.jpg ...oPeN yOuR mInD fOr A dIfFeReNt vIew'n NoThInG eLsE mAtTeRs...

Acezorz Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Muse. Fucking. Awesome. I'll probably be seeing Linkin Park at the Milton Keynes date with few people, since they're selling very poorly due to the lack of Jay-Z fans here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
