Live Music You've Seen in 2012

[kissesxx]

Puscifer, Carina Round, PF Experience & RHCP in June.

I wanted to go to the St. Vincent show coming up later this month, but sadly I won't be able to as I've spent most of my monies on records.

[a21schizoidman]

so far I've seen Andrew WK, Math: The Band (opened for AWK), Kid Savant/Shiloh/Promise You Family, and just got back from Divine Right/The Ropes/Ceremony/Raw Nerve. Upcoming is Clutch, Refused, Xiu Xiu, Zappa Plays Zappa, Joe Bonamassa, and hopefully, Abnormality. Also going to try my damnedest to see Johnathan Richman at Millennium Park for free, but I'll more than likely have to work.

May be seeing Gogol Bordello some time in June (I think) with my sister, but only if her friend can't come.

I saw Refused tonight.

They were absolutely amazing; while I can't adequately compare it to their live shows before breaking up, I can say that it blows the studio sound out of the water. It was a little short, though; Refused's set was about an hour and 15 minutes. Also, Cerebral Ballzy opened, and it's just too Sick of It All/Madball-esque for my tastes. Speaking of which, the lead singer for Sick of It All came out and did a song with Refused. The time would have been better spent on another Refused song. Still, an overall great concert, and anyone who has the chance should definitely see Refused.

I wanna see Refused, but the place they are at here sucks for any sort of harder rock show. The security is way too aggressive about throwing people out, It ruins the experience.

This year I have on tap Candlebox is May, Roger Waters in June, The Outlaws in July, Peter Frampton in August, and Rush in September. Im most excited for Roger Waters. I was able to score 2nd row tickets to the show in Detroit.

That's pretty lame. I saw them at Terminal 5, where security is just about what one would expect for a venue of that size. Lyxzen went into the crowd at one point during the show, but people weren't allowed on the stage. Other than that, though, everything seemed fair game. I was really tired and needed to get some work done after the concert, though, so I didn't get too close to the stage for that show.
