Live

[AThousandLies]

Being that I'm an avid music fan/player, I've decided to create another thread related to music. This one is about who you've seen live and, if you wish; when, where, stuff they played, crowd, opening band(s), pros and cons etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I saw A Perfect Circle at the Robinson Pavillion (5k capacity hall) in Perth last year in March or April. It was my first official concert, and boy was it awesome. Although we had to wait for two hours in the hall amongst hundreds of other sweaty people because there was no opening band, it was indeed awesome. I cannot remember the setlist in order, but I know it contained the following:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(definitely first)

 

 

 

Vanishing (extended live version)

 

 

 

[dunno the order from here]

 

 

 

The Hollow

 

 

 

Magdalena

 

 

 

Rose

 

 

 

Orestes

 

 

 

3 Libras

 

 

 

The Package

 

 

 

Weak and Powerless

 

 

 

Blue

 

 

 

The Nurse Who Loved Me

 

 

 

Pet

 

 

 

Thomas

 

 

 

Thinking Of You

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(know the rest)

 

 

 

The Outsider

 

 

 

[encore]

 

 

 

The Noose

 

 

 

Judith

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think they played one or two others. There was also at least one weird one minute performance from just James Iha, in addition to Maynard singing something about "Freddy's got the flaps".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maynard was looking weird as always. At the start he was behind this shadowy screen and it looked pretty cool. He took his shirt off and ugh ... he has an ugly ugly body. But I guess being the freak he is it wouldn't make sense for him to have a six-pack and nice pecks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

During the show this guy who was probably on lots o' drugs climbed up a pole in the middle of the hall. Maynard being the tight-[wagon] he is stopped the show. Everyone thought they were going to go off-stage because they're really really petty about smoking during the concert, photos and whatnot. So the guy was on top of this pole and everyone was chanting "get the [bleep] down" and eventually Maynard joined in. I can imagine that as an awesome track on the live CD/DVD. Anyhoo, by the end of the show he had climbed all the way to the scaffolding above the stage and was literally above Maynard. Dunno what happened to him afterwards but I'm guessing he was beaten severely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This upcoming Saturday I am going to a Garbage concert which could possibly be their last concert ever. I'm also going for free; a friend who happens to like me invited me. So that's my concert experience. What about yours eh?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, and while they are still around, I must see the following on-stage:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nine Inch Nails

 

 

 

Marilyn Manson

 

 

 

Deftones

 

 

 

Tool

 

 

 

David Bowie

 

 

 

The Cure

 

 

 

Muse

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The rest either won't be around for much longer or will never come to my location.

They did two shows in Sydney, one in Brisbane and one in Melbourne. My brother flew over and saw the first Sydney show but I didn't have the money. The only time they played Perth was at BDO 2000, and I was only 10 then so even if I knew of NIN back then, I wouldn't be able to get in.

[Sir_Alex85]

I'm going to go see Judas Priest next month. :D I'm excited. It'll be my first metal concert. YAY

[Lageris89]

Linkin Park - November '03, it sucked.

 

 

 

Blink 182 - February '04, was good.

 

 

 

Mastodon, Hatebreed, Slayer, Slipknot - October '04, the best gig ever.

 

 

 

Blink 182 - December '04, the worst gig ever.

 

 

 

Audioslave - June '05, an amazing show.

 

 

 

Snoop Dogg - July '05, good show hahaha.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was supposed to be going watching Corrosion of Conformity on Tuesday (October 4) but the singer lives in New Orleans so the tour's got postponed.

[AThousandLies]

Just got back. Pretty awesome. Didn't top the APC show I saw last year, but good nonetheless.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shirley looked stunning. Fishnets, tank-top and very short skirt.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was three rows from the front. This was their last show on the tour so they dragged it out for a while with all the thank yous and whatnot. The setlist was quite good, although I didn't get to hear Run Baby Run. She made eye contact with me at least once, possibly twice. She also handed out champagne to a few people. I almost managed to grab the guitarist's pick (forgot his name), but it went to the guy in front of me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Songs I remember ...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Queer

All in all, I'm quite satisfied.
