bettyx 0 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 i saw canadian band death from above 1979 in melbourne on a trip home not too long back. they were very loud. (surprisingly so, for just two guys). good show, though. however the drummer was a bit bitchy, which wasn't cool. someone mistook him for an american & he wasn't happy.

gamera 0 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Actually no chance recently. Maybe people in cities could have more chances I guess. People live in a boonies like me can not have enough How about playing any in a concert? I have played a recorder with a harpsichord in my junior high school day and sang some in a chorus in my sinior high school day. Pretty long ago, good experience. Link to post Share on other sites

farquah 0 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Went to see Oasis last Friday in Yoyogi. Not a bad gig but little dissapointed in the short time that they were on stage, only 1hour half. Think it just seemed shorter as there was no warm up band. Not a fan of Yoyogi at all though, as I just can`t understand WHY they put seats in the hall????? Everyone is standing anyway, and it takes from the atmosphere MASSIVELY, and the bamd react to it as well. Really annoys me. Still was good to hear some old classics pulled out the bag and finish with a rework of the Who`s My Generation!! Link to post Share on other sites

boardbaka 3 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Saw Buck Cherry (no not chuck berry) recently @ Shibuya quattro. Legend and completely off his head! Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Too bad Steve, For your benefit, I hope they do play early in the day and don't mess around getting started like some bands do. But it is quite likely based on the feedback given to me. The concert to which I am going is quite unique. It is at a sea side holiday camp and the ticket includes 3 nights in a chalet that sleeps 4 people (so you go with some friends and split the ticket). The chalet has kitchen and fridge and shower etc. So it will be like living in a daggy family holiday resort for a few days whilst hordes of concert goers (who all have their own chalets) wander around having a good time. Sold out, should be fun. There is even a go-kart race track. Check out the line up. Besides MV, I am looking forward to seeing The ****ing Champs. http://www.atpfestival.com/events/line_up.php?event=19 Link to post Share on other sites
ncorrenti 0 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I saw Deep Dish a few months back and they played an awesome four-hour set. I'm seeing Jamiroquai in a couple of weeks, which I'm pretty excited about (!!!). They're always pretty spectacular live. Link to post Share on other sites

bushpig 0 Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Last one I saw was a Rage Against the Machine cover band playing in Hiroshima. Surprisingly they pulled it off quite well. The same gig also had an ACDC cover band with a chick guitarist dressed up as Angus in the little boy school uniform! They weren't too bad either. Little else to see down these parts...
