I live in the suburbs, so by time we got out of the stadium, walked to our car and drove home it was near 1am. Pretty much the same. Red Line takes forever to get to the Howard station.

Bananarchy Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Gotta get on the red line at Sheridan to get out faster if you're going south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but next March will be 25 years since the first time I saw them live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Glad I saw Pumpkins Monday but why is Billy so weird? I liked the set list but not the order. Was very mellow and slow until maybe the last 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boopa1219 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Picked up Interpol’s new record, Marauder, on (cream) LP, today at the Reckless on Milwaukee. I’m a huge fan of Interpol, I’ve seen them live a bunch so I was really anticipating this record. On first listen, I really like how raw and aggressive this album is. It was recorded live and straight to analog tape. Their music has been stuck in a mid tempo space for a decade now, so it’s nice hearing some more energetic stuff. I do miss the keyboards though. The best tracks are If You Really Love Nothing, The Rover, Flight of Fancy and It Really Matters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3GamesToLove Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) Not sure if we have any Jason Isbell fans here, but a cool confluence of tour dates this month: Isbell at the Auditorium on 9/14 (still some [bad] tickets available), Amanda Shires at Thalia Hall on the 20th, and Drive-By Truckers (w/The Hold Steady) at the 312 Block Party at Goose Island on 9/22. Isbell, his wife, and his old band in the city all within 8 days of one another. I'll be there for all of them. This time four months ago I had heard good things about Isbell but had never actually listened to him or given the genre much of a chance. Within a week or two it was all I was playing and I'd made plans to see him at Summerfest. Now I'll have seen him twice within five months of discovering him. It's been a long time since I so totally got into an artist as this guy. If you appreciate great songwriting, give him a listen. I don't think you'll regret it.

Leonard Zelig Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I've seen Isbell with his band and with DBT. I first saw DBT at Boo Jr's in Carbondale in 2000. It was the night of the huge Sox-Tigers brawl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSqwert Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Get to see Lauryn Hill, De LA Soul, and Shabazz Palaces tomorrow night. Hopefully she shows up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananarchy Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Bought tickets to Kurt Vile and the Violators. I saw him with Courtney Barnett once but I'm excited to see him do his own stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boopa1219 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) I’m reading Morrissey’s autobiography right now and I’m fully convinced that all I want in the world is a Smiths reunion. Still probably the strangest band break up ever. I read some of Johnny Marr’s autobiography and I’m of the thought that Morrissey was in love with Johnny Marr, which caused the band to split. Just very weird. Edited October 8, 2018 by Joshua Strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never got to see DBT before he left but have seen them and him since. Both put on a hell of a show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Normally not a big fan of mashups but this is outstanding. The vocals from Enter the 36 Chambers over the beats from Midnight Marauders. A tribute to both albums, which came out on the same day 25 years ago (11/09/93). Had this on repeat all weekend. .

LittleHurt05 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Pretty amazing story about a California "band" that created a fake fanbase and record label to go on a European tour that nobody attended. http://www.metalsucks.net/2018/11/09/l-a-band-threatin-faked-a-fanbase-to-land-a-european-tour-no-one-attended/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
