The Live Music Thread

[cetoole]

Saw Chelsea Wolfe and a few other cool bands last night for the opening of the Nordic Museum, of all places.  

[Dusty Chalk]

Sweet.  I ended up chickening out.  She was opening for Ministry with whom I’m “done”, so wasn’t willing to drive all the way to Balmer and back just for a 45 minute set.

About to see Fever Ray

[Dusty Chalk]

Yeah, that was fantastic.  I especially liked the muscle lady -- she was literally larger than life, and she acted the part, moving like a muppet at times.  And she was definitely enjoying hamming it up.

Waiting to see Naia Izumi

Yeah, that was great...until he got to the story of one song, about a girl he had a crush on, but I'm just not into you so I wrote a song about it because why not.  Put me into a funk for a couple songs.  But yeah, he's so good that I did get back out of it before too long.

EDIT:  I think it was this one:

The track, "Dreamers", is what finally got me back on track.

Saw Michael Burritt perform this piece and others as part of the Beta Percussion concert series. 

If you get a chance to see him, go (he teaches at Eastman in Rochester)!

He is one of the visiting faculty in a week long workshop on writing for and performing percussion. 

I hope to participate next year!

Nice!  Saw him...er...them back in the...90s?  Saw them for opener Garbage, stayed for the awesomeness.  Was suitably blown away.

Hey @Aura, pipe dream at this point, but if I come to Chicago on October 6 (it's a Saturday), do you want to check out Ne Obliviscaris and Wintersun with me?
