A friend and I saw Thursday on January 31st. The following --pretty much verbatim from my blog -- details the heckuva time we had finding the venue...

We only got to see Thursday play a few songs, though, cuz my buddy and I got to the show later than we planned to cuz San Francisco isn't easy to navigate. We thought we going in the right direction when my friend asked some guy where Van Ness was yet he pointed us in the wrong direction for some reason. My friend caught up to a lady and she told us where Van Ness actually was, which helped us out until we had to stop and ask for directions to The Regency Ballroom. Getting there took another fifteen or so minutes. So getting to the concert was an adventure in itself. Like I said, trying to find The Regency Ballroom in SF is like trying to find a freakin' neddle in a haystack. You'd think it'd be obvious where it is, but no -- freakin' internet directions screwed us over since they weren't very clear. At least we hung around after for a few of Underoath's songs.

When my friend and I got there, we were searched for anything we could get kicked out for but we were clear. However, some people got away with taking weed in there and smoked it when Underoath played. The lady that looked in my backpack noticed my camera and I told that I might not even use it. Noticing the size of it, she thought it was a video camera and I told her it was a camera that uses floppy disks to take pictues and she was surprised to hear that since she hadn't heard the term "floppy disk" in a long time. I didn't take any pictures cuz there wasn't much battery life in my camera cuz I charged it about an hour before I left to meet my friend. That and there was really no reason to take pictures. Despite getting to the concert late, we still had a good time. I didn't engage in moshing nor did my friend during the Underoath show since we're not really into it.

Yesterday, went over to American Airlines Center to see NKOTBSB. Sure, the New Kids & Backstreet Boys sang their old classics, and for a brief moment, Nick Carter got to play the guitar!

I went myself & told an usher about how I got that ticket (through winning $140 in Bingo). 10 minutes into the concert, a couple of ushers came to me & upgraded my seating from the balcony to low level.

I even got Nick Carter's new CD as well.

First I thought of linking an image of BU's show but that might have been too much... Let's just say it involved a gay porn video, dead rats and a naked woman.

Everything Finnish is awesome....

Next year, Nightwish....must see Marco again.

I saw Julia Nunes at the beginning of the month and it was awesome. She is such a funny, genuine person. She really connects with her audience.

*discordiatookie* · 03-28-2012, 02:29 PM

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, in Glasgow last month. Gig before that was Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds in Aberdeen. They were both amazing.

Next gig is Slow Club, and I can't wait!

Panda Khan · 04-08-2012, 01:26 AM

Saw Mastodon and Soundgarden in Grand Prairie, TX back in the fall. Soundgarden was kinda on a mini-tour being that they only played two dates: GP, TX and NOLA for Voodoo Fest. Both bands were amazing.

*zkarlette* · 04-10-2012, 01:45 AM

Saw Steven Wilson last week, was pretty cool.

chris350 · 04-25-2012, 12:41 AM

Revival tour a month ago. Chuck Ragan, Dan Andriano, Tom Gabel, and Cory Branan. It was awesome.

Shreddhead · 07-01-2012, 10:23 PM

I just saw Alice Cooper and Iron Maiden in Camden NJ on Friday, then traveled to Bristow VA and saw them again last night. Suuuuch an amazing performance!

~~Leo656~~ · 07-02-2012, 05:56 AM

DUDE you were at the Cooper/Maiden show on Friday? AWESOME, so was I! Me and Mary were on the lawn by section 200. Why the f*ck did Bruce keep saying "Scream for me, Philadelphia!"??? Did he not know where he was?

You're right, though, Amazing show. Hoping to do Fozzy in August and Offspring in September.

Zarana-X · 07-02-2012, 01:34 PM

The English Beat on June 9th...

He's always done that. I saw them twice in the 80's for Powerslave and Somwhere In Time. He also does that on Live After Death, "Scream for me, Long Beach!"

I saw the Offspring play in a garage back in 1989...

HAHA! Dude i could have been like 5 people away from you! I was on the lawn that night and around that area.

It basically felt like a greatest hits show. Im soooo glad they played the Prisoner. The only other song i really would have liked to hear was Hallowed Be Thy Name... but that would have been spoiling me

And who the hell knows what to do about city names. I saw them at the same venue about 5 years ago and he said Philadelphia. But then the next night in Bristow it would have been slightly awkward if he had been saying "Sccccreeam for me Bristow Virginia!" so he went with "Washington".
