Live In '10

The bands/shows I've seen in 2010 in order of how much they ruled.
1Brand New
Daisy


Saw them with Kevin Devine (who ruled as well) and it was about as good as I
thought it would be. Opened with 'Vices' and closed with 'Play Crack The Sky',
also met KritikalMotion in the pit, which was pretty cool.
2Converge
Axe To Fall


Saw them with Genghis Tron, and they DESTROYED. Played a good mix of
their stuff (nothing pre-JD aside from the closer) and even though they
closed with 'The Saddest Day' instead of 'Jane Doe' it was still kick ass.
Jacob Bannon is awesome also.
3Every Time I Die
New Junk Aesthetic


With 50 Lions. Easily the most fun I've had at a gig.
4Glassjaw
Worship And Tribute


At Soundwave. Played mostly stuff off Worship and Tribute and only one
song from EYEWTKAS, but it was still incredible. Crowd sucked ass though,
and seeing them at a festival wasn't ideal.
5The Dillinger Escape Plan
Option Paralysis


With Maylene And The Sons of Disaster, had to get new glasses after this
gig because they got stomped on but it was worth it. Greg's biceps seem to
have gotten bigger since last time.
6Pixies
Doolittle


Played all of Doolittle. Don't really think I need to explain this.
7Polar Bear Club
Chasing Hamburg


With Break Even (who were really fucking tight). The nicest band I've ever
had the pleasure of seeing, shittons of energy.
8Chuck Ragan
Feast Or Famine


The Revival Tour with Frank Turner, Ben Nichols and Tim Barry. Whole gig
had one of the best vibes I've experienced, would've been higher up if I
didn't have to leave early to catch the bus home.
9Girl Talk
Feed The Animals


At Big Day Out 2010. Crowd was full of nerds (easily the worst festival crowd
in Australia, year in, year out) but Greg was just too good at getting people
hyped up.
10Gallows
Grey Britain


Frank Carter is the maddest cunt in punk rock. Met ThePalaceOfWisdom just
before lolol.
11Sunny Day Real Estate
Diary


So tight live. Was hot as hell though.
12Eleventh He Reaches London
Hollow Be My Name


Twice, with Suffer both times. So much better live than on record.
13Raekwon
Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Pt II


Did lots of Wu-stuff circa Enter The Wu-Tang which was baller. There were 2
fights during the gig and one huge fight outside afterwards, which kind of
ruined the experience.
14Rise Against
The Sufferer And The Witness


Big Day Out 2010. Were good live though their setlist SUCKED, and again,
crowd blew.
16Mastodon
Crack The Skye


Big Day Out 2010. Their beards are more impressive in real life.
17Architects
Hollow Crown


REST OF THESE BANDS ARE RANDOM FESTIVAL BANDS. Soundwave 2010,
were actually decent.
18The Decemberists
The Crane Wife


Big Day Out 2010. Were really nice late afternoon on a smaller stage.
19Reel Big Fish
Turn The Radio Off


Soundwave. Was nostalgic as fuck for me, and they were legit entertaining.
20Jimmy Eat World
Clarity


Soundwave. Only caught the last 5 songs of their set, but they were great.
21Paramore
Riot!


Soundwave. Could barely hear anything over the number of 14 - 16 year
old girls SCREAMING.
22Muse
Absolution


Big Day Out. Were actually alright until they started playing their Resistance
stuff. Crowd absolutely SUCKED though, couple started mackin' on each
other right in front of me.
23Powderfinger
Vulture Street


Were decent but I mean, honestly, Powderfinger aren't the kind of band I'd
go out of my way to see.
24The Mars Volta
Frances The Mute


Were actually really good, forgot about them though or else they would've
been higher. Played a sweet mix of older stuff and the new, and Cedric's
dancing is hilarious.
27Pantha Du Prince
Black Noise
29Acid Tiger
Acid Tiger
30The Tallest Man On Earth
The Wild Hunt
