Concert diary

Tonight I’m finally seeing @IronMaiden for the first time. All it took was for them to play two blocks from my apartment.

A Metallica concert in 2017 is pretty unnecessary but I went anyway and my main takeaway was that Lars’s drums were purple and sparkly.

Wall-to-wall joy at the Revolution show tonight. I never got to witness the man himself, but I’m so glad I got to at least do this.

Tonight I got to see Megadeth play in a room a little bigger than my apartment and it was very very great.

Shellac and Shannon Wright at the Bell House tonight. It was really really good.

Tonight I saw the actual Misfits play a whole bunch of Misfits songs. My voice may never come back from this one.

I wanted to share with y’all a video of The Hold Steady playing all of Boys and Girls in America front to back, but I was too busy dancing.

Written documentation of last night’s Wolves in the Throne Room fan who solemnly held aloft a single invisible orange for several minutes.

“Dude, you have orange earplugs! I hate orange. I like green!” says the smiling guy at this show with a novel approach to making friends.

Yeah, so @TheActualMuffs kicked all of the asses tonight, so wherever you are, if your ass is hurting, there it is.

It’s been a shitty week, but luckily @lowtheband came to town tonight to wash off the muck.

As Mondays go, it turns out that the one where you get to see a free, surprise Stevie Wonder show is a winner.

Color me impressed that @ChamberMonster managed to keep a secret for 2+ months, and tonight we’re seeing Stephin Merritt!
