Nice! I love Less than Jake... first concert I ever went to was to see them on the Hello Rockview tour in 98.

Yea, they are great fun. I'm going with a group of about 6 buddies so it will be a fun night. The Skints are a really good band too so it will be a perfect sing-a-long of a night.

Debating whether I should go see The Dillinger Escape Plan in January, they just announced it. On one hand, it's not my favorite band but I just know it's one of those that is fantastic in a live setting. And since they're breaking up this might be my last chance to see them. On the other hand, my wallet's killing me and I may have to sacrifice some concerts in the upcoming half year.

Anyone with experience seeing TDEP live that can help a brother out with this tough decision?

Going to see Zardonic on saturday. Well, it's a free festival but that's the only artist I know from the line-up, should be cool nonetheless because it's mostly

Also fixed my Devin Townsend / BTBAM / Leprous dilemma. I contacted the guys from Melkweg (the venue they'll be playing at) to volunteer with preparations of the show and stuff for my study (I need to document 28 hours of voluntary work in the music business as part of my orientation this year), not sure whether I'll be needed during the actual show or whether it's just the preparation but if I can't attend the actual show it'll atleast be a cool experience I bet.

It's a longshot but it would be fucking awesome if I get to meet Devy and some of the other guys during all this

This thread is so DEAD INSIIIIIDE omg

Anyway update time, I'm probably seeing Alcest + MONO in November but we're not entirely sure yet, haven't bought tickets yet either. And my Devin Townsend situation is being worked on and I'm having a phone conversation with them about it next monday.

Thought about seeing Opeth as well but I figured I'm not paying that kind of money for a band I'm not even that big a fan of.

I'm seeing Alcest + MONO as well, really pumped for that.

Train of Naught · « **Reply #182 on:** September 21, 2016, 10:27:07 AM »

I'm really glad to have met some fans of good metal at my college, I have Gojira's From Mars To Sirius cover as my laptop background and it's handing me awesome metalhead friends left and right.

One year ago, I wouldn't have known a single soul that cares about Alcest in the slightest.

Just found out Intronaut and Shining are playing in London on Sunday

As far as I can tell they are only playing one date in the UK. I've only heard bits of Intronaut but would definitely check them out as I'd love to see Shining. Really been loving them over the past few months.

Opeth is playing at Radio City Music Hall soon. I'm probably not going to go though, I never really got into them even though I saw them twice open for DT at Prognation. I should probably give them a real shot though, I don't think I have ever actually listened to them besides those two concerts.

oh8wrx · « **Reply #190 on:** September 29, 2016, 10:47:28 AM »

The new album is sounding pretty great...i'd recommend checking them out again

Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, and Rick Wakeman ( My fav Yes line-up). Nov 30th in Seattle.

Been awhile since I've got to a punk show. Bad Religion were on fire last night and what a crazy fun crowd. Greg Graffin is getting old, but he still has it.

Chicago on Oct 28th in Montreal and not the hockey team

So Less Than Jake were great last night. The Skints were on top form as support. Not really a fan of Mariachi El Bronx to be honest but they were entertaining. Was pretty drunk by the tine LTJ hit the stage. Was right in the pit with friends for the whole thing though, plenty of crowd surfing and I fucked my shoulder again, but it's all good honest fun.

My friend got hit with a shoe to the face, which was pretty funny, but he rage quit the gig after that

It was his first punk rock gig and I don't think he'll be seeing any more lol.

Off to Oxford to see Ne Obliviscaris and Oceans of Slumber tonight

cramx3 · « **Reply #204 on:** October 04, 2016, 08:26:18 AM »

Did they do an album in its entirety last night?

I know when LTJ come back to the states they are playing Losing Streak and Hello Rockview albums at rotating concerts. I can't make the one where they play Losing Streak, but going to see Hello Rockview.

No, they didn't play an album in it's entirety. The set was pretty Losing Streak/Hello Rockview heavy, which was fine by me. The whole place was jumping when they played History of a Boring Town

Oceans of Slumber and Ne Obliviscaris were great last night. It was in a tiny venue and they probably played to like 120 people max!! Tickets were really cheap, it's a shame they didn't pull a bigger crowd.

So the opening band was a local band who were ok but did this really weird squatting/headbanging thing where the two guitarists and bassist did it in sync. They all looked a bit like they were taking a shit on stage, it was kinda ridiculous and I couldn't help laughing!!

OoS blew them out of the water. Seriously, their singer mesmerized everyone there. She just oozes sex and brings a totally different vibe to any metal band I've ever listened to. They also did a Type O Negative cover which was cool. Their drummer was also on top form

After their set the whole band were at their Merch stand and everyone pretty much flooded around them. They made quite a few new fans I would say.

Ne Obliviscaris, for me, weren't as good as OoS. They sounded great and the set was good I was just so taken by OoS that it was a tough job to follow. Was a good show in all and I'd definitely see both again. Good time had by all. The three friends I went with all became OoS fans on the spot, and we all agreed (including my female friend) that the singer was the sexiest human alive

iamthemorning, November 18th @ Patronaat, Haarlem

Sonata Arctica played here recently as well but I didn't feel familiar enough with them yet to go, probably shouldve gone though just because its fucking Sonata Arctica playing at a small-ass venue for like 12 euro's

Also might see Meshuggah if I get tickets, still have to see if my friend can get me them though, not a big enough fan to buy tickets for the concert myself. (just to be clear, her and I are volunteering for Melkweg and in return they decided to give us free concert tickets of our choice and if Meshuggah is available we'll go there though Dillinger Escape Plan is very tempting for me as well)

Yeah, you should've gone for Sonata Arctica, they're very fun live.

Anyway, here's all iamthemorning dates. I definitely recommend to see them if you can make it to one of these.

Awesome! I might go the Iamthemorning gig in Zwolle (if I can convince a friend to go with me)
