Unfortunately I had to deal with some work sh1t halfway thru their set. I could still hear them pretty good from the concourse at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I WAS drunk, but I don't think they played Crown of Horns, which I wanted to hear. Maybe I'll avoid the 8% beers at the brew pub before Dropkick Murphys in a couple weeks. When/where did you see them? You can check out their setlists here: https://www.setlist.fm/setlists/judas-priest-6bd6bafa.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Memories are fuzzy. I like to be "feeling good" at concerts, but not fukked up. Mistakes were made; I was fukked up at Priest. Just saw Drug Church is playing Aftershock. If you have a chance, check them out and let me know what you think. They were touring with Halestorm but will be headlining when Aftershock is done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I, too, have had some hazy memories of concerts due to too much drinking. Definitely a delicate balance. Just checked schedule and looks like I'll have to miss Drug Church as they are playing at the same time as Till Lindeman. Maybe I'll get another chance to see them at some future date.

I don’t even really know where to begin to tell you how incredible it is. It probably was the coolest concert experiences I’ve ever had. Highly highly recommended if there’s anybody remotely you like that comes out there go see it. It’s quite the experience. +1 I will probably snatch some Linkin Park tickets tomorrow during presale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually, no. Looks like a cool venue though. I might look into the Apocalyptica show on 3/1 -- they are cello band that does metal songs, looks like this show is a tribute to Metallica. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,292 Posted January 28 Snagged our main floor tickets. Decent enough seats. I first thought about looking at mezzanine as my daughter-in-law is short, but they were crazy expensive and combined w some kind of VIP package. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,292 Posted July 1 Upcoming shows... NIN Blood Incantation Steven Wilson Aftershock Festival. Bands I care about: Dream Theater, Gojira. Maybe Testament.

Wasn't too familiar w Primus aside from a couple of songs but HOLY FOCKING SH1T is Les Claypool amazing on bass! Didn't matter that I didnt know the song, it was just mesmerizing listening to him play. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or they just happen to be playing there? I just can't get into FJM. And Train are no-talent hacks, IMO. I thought about going to this, but Alabama Shakes is the only one I'd really be into. Sheryl Crow would be cool too, but I've seen her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
