saw DRI the other night & seeing Megadeth tomorrow. Didn't even know all these shows were happening.

I'm excited for Narrow Head at the Troubadour on October 17th. I'm also seeing Deafheaven the day before that at the Ace Hotel, someone gave me two tickets for free.

I saw Ry Cooder accompanying his son Joachim at a free concert in a local park today. I pushed my son on a swing-set adjacent to the stage. We had to take some long trainspotting breaks at a metro rail crossing a block away, because autism. Caught a few fragments of desert blues and related sundries. I didn’t get a close look at the guitars, but Ry played what appeared to be a Teisco or similar electric through a ragged tweed amp. An urban pastoral idyll. I wish it was like that every weekend.

The Sonic Dawn and The Courettes in two small Danish towns next month. Skullclub in December in a large Danish town and Still Corners in Denmark's biggest town next Spring.
Never used to go and see that many Danish bands - but since Brexit/Covid it's been hard for the UK bands I'd normally go to see to get over.

The Black Angels at the Showbox in Seattle on 11/7!!!!

Not super excited to have to wear a mask through the whole show, but sacrifices must me made for the drone.

Caught Seattle band Floored Faces here in Tacoma a couple nights ago. Great, loud rock trio for those of us with a thing for/experience in the ‘90s. AVRI JM with Mastery hardware as a bonus. Excellent kick drum artwork. Catch them.

Frazey Ford on Saturday. Rescheduled from forever ago. My first indoor show since March 9th 2020, and first actual night out with my wife in I don’t even know how long.

I wish I was more excited about it.

Frazey and band were amazing, but being around so many people who were shitty about masking up because vain/stupid/drunk really soured me on the idea of going to another indoor live show for a while.

Flaming Lips in March, Circle Jerks in April.

I’m quite excited for the current 2022 list.

Michael Kiwanuka @ Brixton Academy
Manchester Orchestra @ St Pancras Old Church
Funeral for a friend @ Brixton Electric
Teenage Fanclub @ Union Chapel
Le Ren @ St Pancras Old Church
Jimmy Eat World @ Brixton Academy

There’s also: The Big Moon, Pip Blom, Lunar Vacation, Future Islands, Darkest Hour, Superheaven, Jawbox, Bad Religion, Dinosaur Jnr & Beach House that I’m considering. Crazy good year so far for live shows.

Well, two of my January shows are already rescheduled (Nick Mason and Erasure). Hopefully these will still happen:
Ministry/Melvins/Corrosion of Conformity
Martin Barre
Circle Jerks
They Might Be Giants
Steve Hackett
Kraftwerk
Roger Waters

Girls Against Boys in LA playing “House of GVSB” straight through was rescheduled to october. so bummed

Mogwai in April is next. They’ll probably reschedule that too.

Just caught Deafheaven in Brooklyn last night, have a ticket for Low in Manhattan at the end of the month and am debating catching Failure later this year. The Deafheaven show was my first since late 2019 and I had a little trepidation about it. It was a sell out, mask and vax mandates are over in NYC and being in a full room of folks almost made me bailout at the last minute, but I was glad I went.

Peter Hook - Metz, FR
Therapy? - Esch (sur Alzette), LU
Jimmy Eat World - Luxembourg, LU
Jesus and Mary Chain - Wiesbaden, DE
Peter Hook (again) - Maastricht, NL

Caught Low, Waxahatchee, and Wet Leg over the past month.

Just bought a ticket to see Yard Act in a few weeks.
