Pharcyde - Oxford Arts Factory a couple weeks back..
For an act that have been the same album the last 32 years, they still had it.. usually old men loose their drive..
they were jumping around like 20 year olds..was good.. felt old

Going back to the early pages of this thread is very interesting. So many bands that just aren't around anymore. My last show was a while ago. I think it was PJ Harvey in a very small place in Brooklyn called Warsaw. My next two are The Oh Sees in the same place and then Tedeschi Trucks Band in the Beacon Theater in September.

Comeback Kid last week with a bunch of 40 something year old dads dangerously trying to stage dive.

'...this song is about being buried alive by thousands of tons of molten lava...'
Botch, with Great Falls, at Vega in greasy old Copenhagen last night.
Y'know that thing when you buy a ticket and you just know in your balls and in your soul it's gonna be an absolute belter of a show? Then when it happens it's like, about 40 or 50 times better? Yeah, that.
8pm. Made sure I was there for the opening band because if you can't be bothered to turn up when the support turns up to play then you need your hands smashed like biscuits. Great Falls were... great. Incredibly heavy sludge with pummeling grindcore breaks and singing directly without mics. Only realised about half way through their set I totally own some of their records - off the back of split singles and whatnot. I buy shit from bandcamp all the time, so things sometimes get misplaced. Anyway, the mad kid said they were totally cool and worth checking out - the split with Throes is particularly bludgeon-y.
9pm. Botch were immense. Never saw them on their last swing 20-odd years ago because, apparently, I was a fucking idiot. But I love their records and I have seen Russian Circles a whole bunch of times, so seeing Brian wild out and actually talk *and* sing was fucking righteous. Dave sounded awesome, Dave played awesome, and Tim smashed the drums like a motherfucker. And for a gang of dudes in their late-40's who go on stage and just straight up break themselves into fucking pieces for a good hour-plus? Fuck me. Flawless.
So yeah. Just pure dynamite action all round and one of those shows that people will remember for years - because, y'know, they'll never play again and are giving it one final blast just for a larf, see the world, and prove a point.
And a *major* shout-out to the stringy pensioner dude at the front giving big licks for the entire show - I recognise him from the Liturgy show last year. I'm seeing Idles on Monday, they're going to be total fucking dogshit compared to this lol.
20/10 - would transition from Japam to Afghamistam again.

Idles, with some c-tier indie codswallop as support, Annexet in Stockholm
Yeah, fucking dogshit.
1/10 - only because the Peel Session version of Blindness, by The Fall, was played on the PA before the main act.
