The Concerts Thread

[Tammy 2,291]

Lana's was one of my favorite ones. She is a great live singer and her fans were great during the show.

 

As to the rest, Chris Isaak & Silvertone are great live musicians and always very close to their fans - might dance on stage with them last October.

 

Avril Lavigne is much fun, too.

 

I am looking forward to seeing Fleetwood Mac this October - a band that wrote music history, and I simply have to see live.

 

And maybe I will also see Paramore this September ...

I'D LOVE TO SEE HER LIVE. HOW WAS IT?

OK, so I have the opportunity to go see Arctic Monkeys (for the 3rd time, lol) + Beach House + Smashing Pumpkins this Wednesday.

 

Just got home, am a bit drunk.

 

Anyway, Arctic Monkeys put up a good show as per usual, but the acoustics really sucked (the guitars were drowned out & the bass was turned way up). I swear, 4 years ago Alex Turner was the shiest, most glum, shoegazer-tier rock performer I'd ever seen - and now he's a man of the people, a crowd pleaser. Bizarre. (Also bizarre: dude kept combing his hair back in the middle of the concert! Apparently, pompadours aren't concert-friendly.)

 

Beach House were very good too, but their show suffered from the same acoustics problem as AM's. Imo they're not a festival band anyway; their music befits small & intimate venues, not large Summer festivals. It was still very nice, and it was my first time seeing them live too. Oh, and Victoria looked so sexy in a leather jacket (idk how she managed to handle the heat tho?!!) & I adoooooooore her hair.

The Smashing Pumpkins aren't really my band but I enjoyed their concert way more than I'd expected tbh. Also, what kind of sexy bassist?!
