It's official. Got me and Squeaky's tickets for the Disturbed show next month. I'm so excited.

Me too! I live in hope and constantly keep everything crossed

^^ Even your toes???

Particularly my toes!

^^ I've seen Manson 3x: at the beginning of the Antichrist tour, at a really tiny club; during the Mech. Animals tour, in nosebleed seats at a huge arena; and at Ozzfest '01 at an outdoor venue. Always incredible. Vampira & Mrs. D., I hope you do get to see a show!

Must... go...
Lacuna Coil =
Disturbed =
Other Two =

During that concert, I would...

For Chimaira: Whoop some a$$ on the floor.
For Lacuna Coil: Have a few drinks and enjoy the set.
For Killswitch Engage: Have few more drinks and enjoy the set.
For Disturbed: Go get a tattoo, because I think their totally blagh.

I might being going to see Mudvayne in a couple weeks and then I'm going to see Nightwish in May.

Bought my tickets for NIN/Jane's Addiction yesterday for the PNC Arts Center show here in Jersey; I got orchestra seating, and I 'm very happy about that.

^^If that were Lacuna Coil and say, Nightwish or Kamelot, I'd be there in a heartbeat

I went to the Disturbed concert, just to see Disturbed. They were pretty good, Dave's voice was cracking a little bit (I see what you mean now Vampira), but not bad. Don't regret going.

Next concert is Theory of a Deadman next month

This Saturday is the NINJA show in Jersey, Nine Inch Nails and Jane's Addiction. I have row five seats, super stoked for this one. Any pics I take from the party afterward will be put up.

^^ Jealous. Very jealous!

That's one of many things I miss about living in CT -- lots of bands would stop through on their way from NY to Boston (or vice versa). Very few good acts come down here, though.

The NINJA show was retarded good, both bands played 90 minute sets, and it was a cool 65 degree summer evening. Everybody up front was passing whatnot about the crowd, share and share alike, just having a great time.


NIN were fantastic, they opened the show up with "Wish" and closed with the heavy version of "Hurt". NIN was a machine, pumping out song after song, with Trent talking only bits between certain songs. NIN's line-up always changing with Trent's use of studio artists and friends is always bewildering to keep track of, but the kid playing drums for them now is good. At least Robin Fink remained pretty regular with every major tour.


But really it was Jane's Addiction which surprised me with so much energy, it seemed like 97 for me all over again, and they really put on a quality show. They opened with "My Time" but that and the next four songs were just popular album-cuts that they extended with extra solos from everybody to give the first 45 minutes of their set a 'jam' feeling. Then all of a sudden Avery's bass-line for "Mountain Song" kicked up and the place went kooky, which they then followed up with "Caught Stealing".

At the end they encored with "Stop" and "Jane Says", and everybody was sent home happy and winded from singing.



After this tour, Nine Inch Nails are doing their Wave Goodbye Tour, not forever, but Trent said that he's taking some time off. To his credit, I think four albums in six years and seven world tours is pretty damn good for a guy who used to put an album out every three to five years.

I really really want to go and see Emilie Autumn when the US tour for her starts. She had to cancel a few dates because of one of the managers.
Though, nearest big city that all the bands stop at is four hours away and I can't drive. I guess I'll have to bribe one of my driving friends to take me!

Nobody decent is touring at the moment

I'm practically stalking COF on their forums

If I hear of anybody we like, you will be the first to know

I'm going to see Emilie Autumn in November, got a VIP ticket so I get to meet her and get her book and stuff.

Tickets are super cheap if anyone wants to buy one during the pre-sale! If you still want to go, but the tickets for that venue are sold out, don't fret! There will be more tickets available later. But EA has to sell out EVERY show or else she will not be allowed to tour outside of Europe ever again. D:

Might be going to see Skinny Puppy in Denver on their In Solvent See tour, but I'm sure their new album will suck like the last two did so I'm not buying it. Just going to hear their old stuff.
