10.27.10 | a slower year than normal, but good none the less. |
This Life is Genocide
10.27.10 | prty shitty year for shows in seattle so far. envy show and letlive show were prolly the best |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | letlive were cool when i saw them but i hate the mozart season and it was in a pizza parlor so it didn't really count. |
This Life is Genocide
10.27.10 | lol mozart season? no wonder. they played with the bled so it was bit more active. |
AliW1993
10.27.10 | Yeah it's been a pretty slow year where I'm at too, other than festivals I've only been to about 5. |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | i wanted to go see them with the bled but i had class that night. i love the bled. |
thebhoy
10.27.10 | I missed seeing Wintersleep and Besnard Lakes the other day and I didn't even know they were coming to town :( |
Satellite
10.27.10 | best performances for me this year would be...
btmi
la dispute
the gaslight anthem
the nat'l
wilco
japandroids
trash talk |
ConsiderPhlebas
10.27.10 | This was a slow year??? I get to maybe three shows a year. |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | ohhhhhhhhhh i forgot about trash talk! they were excellent. i thought La Dispute was incredibly underwhelming when i saw them |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | @phlebas for the last 4 or 5 years i've been averaging about 20-25 a year. this year i saw about 15 |
DoubtGin
10.27.10 | would have killed for 1 and 3 I think |
Aids
10.27.10 | Wow, 3 is a great lineup |
Satellite
10.27.10 | it's been a slow year for me, too. one show per month basically. i pick and choose a lot more than i used to.
i dunno, i just love ld live. but i see them play close to their hometown so the crowds are always sweet... my brother just saw them and touche amore play a house show in albuquerque. there were like 60 kids jammed into the living room and apparently it was amazing. |
ConsiderPhlebas
10.27.10 | I don't think I've been to one this year |
Deathcar
10.27.10 | Yeah, I've had a poor year on gigs. Am very jealous of people who get enough decent shows to go to 20+, damn the UK. |
klap
10.27.10 | los angeles rules |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | doesnt it! |
theacademy
10.27.10 | NYC IS BETTER |
theacademy
10.27.10 | lol @ description for 10 |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | but i hate high rises... |
ConsiderPhlebas
10.27.10 | damn the UK [2] |
klap
10.27.10 | pretty sure los angeles gets better shows js |
climactic
10.27.10 | Streetlight, Rush, Green Day, AFI, Born of Osiris
meh year |
theacademy
10.27.10 | yea but someone has to be sober cuz u gotta drive everywhere |
climactic
10.27.10 | wait you saw Andrew Jackson Jihad I'm so jealous |
Satellite
10.27.10 | yea but someone has to be sober cuz u gotta drive everywhere [2] |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | there's an easy way around that. Have one person pregame and the other drive, then the person that
pregamed arrives at the show drunk but sobers out by the time it's over and he drives the way back
while the guy that drove to the venue empties his wallet at the venue bar. pretty simple and everyone
has a good time |
Satellite
10.27.10 | that's EXACTLY what my friends and i do in detroit tbh.
but we're also ducking bullets the entire time. |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | when it works, it works. when it fails you better hope you're close to a burger joint and another bar,
because it's gonna be a long night. ducking bullets, that's how i felt walking to my car after that
rosetta show. fuck east LA |
klap
10.27.10 | or just do what rudy does and drive drunk everywhere |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | if it wasn't for the red light cameras and pissy police officers i would. |
klap
10.27.10 | also whoever is getting shitty at the venue in your plan gets screwed financially adam |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | if the venue allows ins and outs (like the troub and mcworld) just slam something cheap in the parking lot between sets |
Ire
10.27.10 | now i just look pathetic :c
immolation
coheed
iron maiden |
AggravatedYeti
10.27.10 | very much so
I like rudy's plan.
also missing Besnard & Wintersleep in North Hampton tonight Keelan : ( |
ConsiderPhlebas
10.27.10 | Was Satty being serious? |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | probably. it's detroit. their crime rate directly correlates to the Lions' success. |
ConsiderPhlebas
10.27.10 | Shit. At least we stick to shanking in England, that's something |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | i miss good ol' knifings. shanking has that personal touch |
ConsiderPhlebas
10.27.10 | And you can always add a little flavour with a nice glassing, too |
redskyformiles
10.27.10 | that's too hooligan to crossover in the states. |
ConsiderPhlebas
10.27.10 | you're missing out |
Satellite
10.27.10 | "Was Satty being serious?"
haha not in the slightest. |
Kiran
10.27.10 | in no order:
pavement,
titus andronicus,
the national,
japandroids,
apart from those 4 though its not been the best year of shows for me. first half of the year was awesome but i havent been to a single one since july :(. have only seen one or two punk bands too, ugh |
Lucidity
10.27.10 | los angeles is the place to be
averaging about 2 shows per month, all have been amazing
ranked: envy, frank turner, the national, the tallest man on earth |
redskyformiles
10.28.10 | every night there's a show or three that are worth going to. |
