Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine Concert Calendar

Anybody going to any concerts coming up? I like to catch live bands when I can but this semester I have class on weeknights so I've been missing a lot of artists I wanted to see...

Anyways here's what I've got coming up:
10/22 Free Black Eyed Peas concert in San Francisco (not sure if I'll go)
11/14 Death Cab For Cutie in San Francisco
12/14 Barenaked Ladies in San Francisco

Going to U2 11/16 in Tampa.

Missing Depeche Mode on 11/04 cause I am going to the Food & Wine festival at Epcot. (which rocks)

Also missing Nine Inch Nails this weekend cause I'm in a wedding. But I may be too old for NIN concert these days.

Oct 27 Threads
Oct 28 The Twentytwos
Nov 2 Demander
Nov 11 The Unlovables

I go to rock clubs rather than concerts. Most of these guys are friends of mine, but I really like their music anyway.

saw pearl jam month ago sept 22
kicked ass, got the bootleg, best pj album ever!
not much comes to halifax so i gotta wait to got to boston this summer, and i hope its like last summer or better.

Not sure what I'm going to see next. These are some upcoming ones that spring to mind, though.

10/31 Richard Thompson
11/8 Super Furry Animals
11/20 Echo & The Bunnymen
11/22 Bauhaus

(edited for proper band-name spelling)

Pissed off that I've got bugger all lined up at present.
Nae bastard comes to Aberdeen anymore.
At least naebody that I'd pay good money to go and see.

And touring around the country just isn't much of an option these 'married-with-children' days.

Lab, I saw Pearl Jam last year and they rocked. One of my fave bands.

Ofcourse Beastie Boys may be the best concert I've ever attended last year as well.

Drake, i got buds in bands also down here...i try to catch them when I can. I like smaller venues as well personally.

such a kick ass show, next to The Stones it was the best concert i've seen, here's the setlist for a little city like Halifax
Ed Pre-set: Driftin'

Set List: Hard To Imagine, Animal, Corduroy, Green Disease, Love Boat Captain, Dissident, State Of Love And Trust, You Are, Go, Breath, Small Town, Leatherman, Even Flow, Not For You, Jeremy, Blood

1st encore: Low Light, Off He Goes, Nothingman, Glorified G, Rearviewmirror

2nd encore: Alive, Down, In My Tree, Daughter, Betterman, Porch, Bu$hleaguer, Fortunate Son, Rockin In The Free

btw, I just got back from a Sinead O'Connor gig here in Tampa. It rocked. She all into reggae now...wonderful voice.

I saw U2 last month. That rocked! Going to Cirque du Soleil: Varekai next Friday. I've been to La Nouba and it totally rocked. So I am excited to see another Cirque show.

I'm going to see Motley Crue march 2, i saw them 20 years ago and never got the chance to see them again and finally the reunion tour comes to my home.

WOW - you must have a big sitting room!

hell yeah!
me and the band go wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy back, they've always been my house band.

She's touring with reggae legends Sly and Robbie from what I hear. If they're backing her, it's no surprise it rocks.

I ended up going to none of the shows I mentioned above. Just haven't felt like going out much.

Whats wrong, hope its not serious.

Just a prolonged spell of the blahs. Thanks for asking, though. It's appreciated.

There's a band called Trans Am that I've heard good things about playing on the 29th. Maybe I'll check them out.

"Barenaked For The Holidays" this Wednesday with the LeeVees opening (one of the guys from Guster is in the LeeVees) and from what I hear they do rockin' Haunnukah songs. Oh and its not a concert exactly but I just got back from Cirque du Soleil's Corteo and it was pretty groovy (better than Varekai, around Quidam or Mystere, not at good as O).

Summer concert season! Somehow I'm gonna see more concerts/performances this coming summer than I have seen in a very long time. Anybody going to any of these shows!?!

The Streets 6/9
BFD 6/10 (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Strokes, Franz Ferdinand)
Cake 6/11 (free concert)
Futureheads 6/18
Figaro (opera) 6/20
Bloc Party 8/4 maybe?
Deathcab/Mates of State/Spoon 8/11

How about y'all? What's rockin' this summer?

I guess that summer concerts gave us a miss around here.

Seeing Nerina Pallot on the 20th Nov with my wife at the Lemon Tree in Aberdeen.

And I've managed to get tickets for P!nk at the AECC the night after. Thankfully she added a second night.
My daughters are chuffed to bits. Hopefully it'll go part way to making up for the aborted Queen gig last year.

I actually just missed seeing my favorite band, Flogging Molly, play about ten minutes from I live (Toad's Place in New Haven, CT). I was really bummed out about it, but I've seen them a few times before

Other than that, I haven't been to a great concert in quite awhile...

Just saw Flogging Molly here last week Cobie. They put on a great live show. Out your way, keep an eye out for Great Big Sea, sort of along the same lines...

Right now, I'm excited to see Reckless Kelly coming to Denver next month. The timing will be great, and I'm thining of checking out both shows.

That's awesome Ceej! They really do put on a great show.

Great Big Sea...I've heard of them a little but will brush up. I'm always into great shows, and like the bands similar to Flogging Molly.

What kind of music does Flogging Molly play? I've never heard of them. Any particular songs I should use to sample them on Limewire?

You definately should!

"May the Living be Dead (In Our Wake)"

"What's Left of the Flag"

"Death Valley Queen"

"The Likes of You Again"

"Black Friday Rule"

"Devil's Dance Floor"

"Rare Ould Times" (traditional Irish song they do a version of).

Hm...there's a host of others. Those are my favorites.

Flogging Molly is a mix of Traditional Irish music and punk rock--and it comes out completely awesome (I LOVE both). They're slightly similar to Dropkick Murphys, but with big differences.

Great Big Sea is from newfoundland and LABRADOR

Check my concert clips at YOUTUBE.COM
Type labradorian into the search box and my videos come up.
I will adding more clips later, but i have the stones, alice coopr, maroon 5, and some others up there.

This Wednesday (10/25)...

EVANESCENCE!!!

I'm taking Wednesday afternoon through the following Monday off just so I can enjoy Wednesday as long as possible.
