Let's talk about music

I'm gonna end up missing these guys on Friday since Pennywise is playing the same night.

Gotta go with Sallie Ford & The Sound Outside this Friday.

Pennywise has been on my list probably since high school but I've also heard good things about ...Trail of Dead's shows.

Also of note, Monster Mayhem Fest or whatever it's called is this Friday. Saw it last year, but there isn't much on this year's roster that would get me through the door especially with other shows happening the same night.

Yeah, Rancid is more like that for me than Pennywise, so I'll be overlooking anything else that might come up when Rancid is in town in September.

How is Club Cafe these days? It has been a long while since I've been there. Are the late shows (SF & TSO is the 10:30 show) very well attended?

I would go for Zombie, Machine Head, and Mastadon. That's pretty much it. The rest of the lineup does a whole lot of nothing for me. So no sale.

Totally understandable. Headliners lately have been disappointing save for a few years. If they'd swap 5FDP with Lamb of God inside I'd be way more excited.

I saw Zombie last year and he does put on a good show. I wouldn't mind seeing him a second time I guess.

But for the remaining lineup? Machine Head and Mastadon are about it. The rest of them can kick rocks.

Basically the ONLY reason I'm going early is to catch Born of Osiris.

I saw Dax Riggs ex of Acid Bath there. I'd say maybe 50 people were there.

Going to Mayhem this Saturday. Excited for Rob Zombie again, 5FDP always plays well, Mastadon is tight, and then Born of Osiris and Children of Bodom outside...I don't hate it.

Isn't the Mayhem show July 12? Like tomorrow?

I'm in Harrisburg, so I'm going to Scranton.

[FreeCandy44]

Just a quick Fyi...at 3pm today before Mark Maddens show, they are going to debut the new Pearl Jam single.

[PensFanInDC]

Cover song ideas? We need about 13 more songs to get to 40 total. We do everything from STP and MetallicA to rock covers of Adelle and Lady Gaga. I'm running out of ideas. Classic rock, modern rock, pop, it's all up for discussion.

[skullman80]

Dyers Eve(Metallica)
Funeral Hymn(Exodus)
Angel of Death(Slayer)

[FreeCandy44]

Big Bang Baby STP
Hey Joe Hendrix
Any Weezer song
No One Knows QOTSA
I could go on....

[PensFanInDC]

Dyers Eve(Metallica)
Funeral Hymn(Exodus)
Angel of Death(Slayer)

Maybe I should specify no speed metal

And Dyers Eve would be epic if our drummer could actually play the double bass that fast.

[PensFanInDC]

I could go on....

Go ahead....

[viva la ben]

Quicksand-Dine Alone
Buzzcocks-What Do I Get
Black Flag-Rise Above
Barry Manilow-Mandy

It's not hard to play buddy ;)

And more songs ehh?
Smashing Pumpkins Bullet with butterfly wings
offspring self esteem
Pearl jam spin the black circle
Green day welcome to paradise
Soundgarden rusty cage
311 come original
Nirvana you know your right
GNR garden of eden
Nirvana farmer Francis will have her revenge on seattle
Black keys tighten up
Grateful dead shakedown street

[Troy Loney]

[skullman80]

I've never seen a show that wasn't a local band I knew play there. But let me know how that is, I just saw that the Men are playing a show there in October.

Fellow DC band No Trend's top hit "Too Many Humans".

NSFW

[FreeCandy44]

I love the new Pearl Jam song! Its raw and punky and vintage PJ. New album is called Lightning Bolt and will be released Oct 15.

God what a great song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm pretty sure that's NSFW.

Fixed. Suitable for my work. My cat doesn't mind.

Really? Are you a drummer? Cause....it is. That's constant 36th notes on the double bass. It takes quite a bit of skill to pull it off.



Yeah....that's fast.....

[FreeCandy44]

Yes im a drummer...all I do is play 16th notes in a standard 4/4 time. I have 2 high hats, one by the snare with a drop clutch and one by the lower floor tom. Playing the floor tom hat makes it easier to play simply cause you don't have to cross your arms. It sounds harder then what it is truthfully.

That should be a worthwhile show.
