I saw the OG Misfits in 2019 and was expecting them to be totally lame and washed up (let’s be real, Danzig is a fuckin dork) but they kicked rear end and that’s one of my favorite concerts to date. Also Doyle is a very large and scary human on stage lol

My parents musical taste became frozen in the '80s and early '90s, and that is the music they have played my whole life. They also play Sinatra over family dinners, so I've developed a deep hatred of his sound, as I associate it with conversation I find mostly dull and uninteresting (endless homeowner chat is both boring and depressing when you don't own a home, have no realistic expectation of owning a home, and are deeply cynical about the trappings of American white middle class identity, but I digress). Furthermore, my Dad's favorite ever band is Led Zeppelin, so I am essentially desensitized to them from over-exposure. I didn't really develop my own musical taste until well into adulthood, and, as mentioned before, it only really blossomed a few years ago, when I finally got in touch with myself for the first time in my adult life (i.e. when I started seriously exploring transitioning LOL, with things really taking off after I began transitioning). I listen mostly to indie rock and pop by queer women: my favorite artists being Courtney Barnett, Caroline Rose, and boygenius.(so, 3 lesbians and two bi ladies). I do; however, have a deep appreciation of David Bowie, Nirvana, and Bjork, among others. My best friend/ex listens to a lot of interesting stuff, but IIRC her favorite band is Radiohead. My not-going-to-happen-crush's favorite band is The Cure. I know CSS because Kate Moenig is married to one of the band members...which is absolutely perfect.

fartknocker posted:Music Chat: I first learned about Iron Maiden (one of my favorite bands) when I heard Number of the Beast on some late night radio show in the mid 90s. I thought I was hallucinating lol, this is amazing but what the gently caress is going on??? Couldn’t stop thinking about it but it took me a while to even figure out what it was cause this was long enough ago that the default solution to everything wasn’t just typing it into google. Finally found the name of the band somehow and that led to a whole lot of good content. Best show I’ve ever seen was Maiden, Dio, and Motörhead at Madison Square Garden like 2003ish. RIP to several real ones

RIP to several real ones Oddly enough, both the best and worst show I've seen was by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Best show was at the Chicago Theatre in June 2003, on their Nocturama tour. Blixa Bargeld had just left the band so they had James Johnston on guitar, and he was dynamite. Just an electric show. Worst was when I saw them in Boston, at the Orpheum, in March 2013. The acoustics of that place are terrible, and they just seemed exhausted and going through the motions. I spent nine hours on a train from Baltimore, and a decent chunk of money for a hotel in loving Cambridge, to go to that show and I was so mad afterwards.

I think I only went to a couple shows there despite living in Boston for years cause I’m not really a theatre with seats kind of music person. Saw Tenacious D which was hilarious and the acoustics aren’t gonna make or break that experience. And Billy Corgan’s post Pumpkins group Zwan, which I only went to cause a girl I liked invited me lol

Nervous posted:Meet Banana, Loco, Dustbunny, and Mudslide. But which one is Banana??? I saw the Misfits in 1999, my friend and I were mainly there for the opener, it took them like an hour between sets but we waited to give them a chance. It was 1am and I was tired so we just left after they played about 3 songs. I distinctly remember some older guy confronting us about leaving early and called us posers, but we were not there for the Misfits anyway so whatever.

The Orpheum sucks as a venue regarding acoustics, same as The Middle East. Here in Portland the Roseland Theater and the Crystal Ballroom are poo poo venues but they get the bands. The Roseland was the venue that would regularly host the Insane Clown Posse and its adjacent band labelmates, so it was easy to see when ICP was in town by the line of Juggalos around the block. I loved that it was such a regular occurrence that a nearby bodega carried Faygo soda. I do wish I saw a show at Satyricon before it was converted to low-income housing. Since it's meal prep day I stopped by the farmers market and grabbed some stuff.  2 racks of pork spare ribs and a pork shoulder for Memorial Day weekend.  On the walk back home there was a small in-ground planter in a person's yard that filled up with water, so Fritha took a drink. The neighbor's chicken was wary of the intruder.

Android Apocalypse posted:The Orpheum sucks as a venue regarding acoustics, same as The Middle East. The Crystal Ballroom at least has that floating floor which provides an experience somewhere between “combines with a raucous crowd to elevate the energy of the show” and “deep concern for imminent structural failure”, I saw Ziggy Marley there decades ago where that floor along with the hallucinogens involved made for a pretty entertaining time

I kinda think Gwar might be the best live show I've seen. I don't listen to Gwar, I have metal head friends that will occasionally play them, but I don't think I've ever personally pushed the play button for a Gwar song, but it was a great show. Circa 2004, they decapitated an Osama Bin Laden puppet, and then when a George HW Bush puppet came out to thank them, they decapitated him too

As a basketball fan, the Knicks had a very good season that was unfortunately cut short one series early by really awful injuries. As a New Yorker who moved here with well-established fanships in every sport and who halfheartedly roots for the Mets and absolutely nobody else from NYC, watching the natives bitch and moan about this for the next month will be a delight.

I feel like someone is here is either watching or has recently watched Hunt for Red October so just dropping in to say it’s my turn. We have been watching Jack Ryan and my gf wanted to see the movies too so we’re starting with this one.
