Concerts

They're not for me really. I loved Megadeth as a kid and to a lesser extent, Metallica. Never been a fan of Slayer or Anthrax and nowadays, I'm pretty indifferent towards all 4.
In fact, looking at that line-up, I'd put all of these bands ahead of them in terms of wanting to see them!

Slipknot
Biffy Clyro
Weezer
Architects
Gallows
In Flames
One Minute Silence
Four Year Strong
Cancer Bats
Inme
Kylesa
Orange Goblin

as well as Rolo Tomassi, for non-musical reasons....

Couldn't really see going tbh. With the limited time I have there are very few bands I'll make the time for anymore.

Teenage Fanclub next week!

Going to buy my ticket soon.

Just found out that Glassjaw are playing at the Sugarmill in August. It's a 250 capacity venue within walking distance of my house! 

Teenage Fanclub next week!

Going to buy my ticket soon.

Got it    Gonna be tomorrow night!

Nice one, Diego. Should be a really good show. Who is the support band?

There was no support band mate. But the concert was f***in amazing.

They didn't play Neil Jung which was a song I was really looking forward to but they did play my favorite song RADIO, that was a big surprise cause they didn't play this one the night before in São Paulo (I saw the setlist before going to the concert).

Teenage Fanclub are such an amazing band, I really don't understand how one could not like them.

This song, for example:

Teenage Fanclub - The Concept (audio only)

Nice one Diego. On the back of your post I went looking through some of my 'fanclub stuff. Here are a couple of my favourites:

The Man Who Was Too Loud - Frank Black & Teenage Fanclub

Teenage Fanclub & De La Soul-Fallin

Judgment Night, I was listening to that album an hour ago! Spooky.

Paul McCartney in Rio this Sunday!

Saw him last year in São Paulo, but it seems that he liked it here so much (made so much money) that he came back to the country only 5 months later, this time to my city.

I wasn't really excited to this one cause I saw him not so long ago, but now I'm starting to! Only 2 days left.

Nice Diego....I'll never forget when I saw him live at Anfield a couple of years ago, he was amazing  have a wonderful time.

Another amazing concert from Sir Paul McCartney last night... it wasn't as exciting for me as the first one considering both concerts were very similar and especially because I was in a worse place (last year I was really really close to the stage), but I had a great time anyway. Couldn't hold the tears in 'Here Today', a song he dedicated to his friend John, that made me think of my friend Carol. It was also special to listen to 'Ive Just Seen a Face' again, as it was her favorite Beatles song (and my favorite as well).

He's playing in Rio again tonight. Wish I could go there again, I'll never get tired of a good Macca concert

Did something 'crazy' last night... ! A friend of mine convinced me of going to the stadium where Paul was playing again last night and try to get a ticket in a cut price from a desperate seller. I don't know the term in English to those bas**rds who buy a lot of tickets and then sell them for a much higher price, but in portuguese it's "cambista".

So I left work at around 19:40, arrived at the stadium 1 hour later (20:40), and then started our search for a ticket. The show was scheduled to start at 21:30, so we had very little time to do so. After being offered tickets for R$ 200, R$ 150, R$ 100 and other big figures, we said we only had R$ 50 so that was the most we were paying for a ticket.

This 'cambista' complained, said we were trying to f**k him, but we stood by it so after complaining for a while, he finally gave up - he realized he would end up with the ticket so it would be better to cut his losses. The original value on the ticket says R$ 180 (£63.38), so to watch a Paul McCartney concert for only R$ 50 (£19) and also to f**k one of those scumbags called 'cambistas' was very pleasant!

Had another fantastic night Saw Macca 3 times in only a few months time.

Well Done Diego about time those cambista's got ripped off 

Haha, nice one mate.

We call them Ticket Touts.

For Slane this Saturday and it's 30th Anniversary gig. It's always been a special place for me and I've always had me a good time.

Kings Of Leon are headlining with  The Whigs, Mona, White Lies, Thin Lizzy (1st ever headline act) and Elbow on the under-card.

Not that the bill matters too much as it's the whole day - travel, bar-b-que on the banks of the Boyne, meeting folk and partying and (of course) the gig it's self in the best outdoor setting ever! - that makes Slane special

I shall be there too!! Should be a good day though even though the line up could have been better.

Slane was alright, could have been a bit better. KOL didn't stay on for as long as I'd have hoped. Ah well, had a good day anyway!

Had someone sing the Maxi chant at me too ha!

The line up was sh*te IO. Thin Lizzy - W.T.F? Elbow - boring as F**k.

Had me a great day though and got a good 'We Won It Five Times" chant going on the walk back to the Car Park.

Line up was pretty sh*te yeah, but I like Elbow. Thin Lizzy I'm not a fan off, and not a fan of the other shitty support acts. Yeah I still had a good day regardless of the line up though.

Concert was awesome! They are such an entertaining band, lots of energy - drummer been playing with a broken hand of late as well, pretty impressive!

Probably my favorite one live - this isn't from last night obviously, but same old same old
