The CONCERT thread

[dookeyXXX]

Me’n Vets the Patch Skiing King were all set to catch the BEAT stop at GSR in Reno last night. Show wasn’t even 1/3 sold out, so we planned to snag tix at the door to avoid all the extra fees.
Then a buddy from SF called and told me he had comps for us!
Then they canceled the show due to “severe weather.”
It was a bit windy yesterday, but that was it other than sparse rain; nothing terribly severe about it.
Kinda bummed as I’d gone to the second show of the tour and it was kinda meh, but had seen some recent footage of later shows and it looked like the guys had found their groove.
Oh well.

From Jenny Don't show here at Aces High the Sunday before last. Her lead guitarist's (Chris - second from left) guitar was damaged in the ATL airport and he had to play a $400 replacement from Guitar Center and absolutely shredded!

I almost went to that concert because Dookie recommended them in a different thread but I was tired and instead I'm listening to them a bunch in the car with the kids and everyone likes them. Wife is a bit confused though.

Nice!
Dude does indeed shred.
Bummer about his guitar; he had a sweet hollow body when I saw them back in September…

I recommended them in this thread!

Cool that you’ve turned your kids onto them, but why is the wife confused?

I’ve sadly blown off a grip of shows recently:

Jade Bird @ The Cypress in Reno

Iguana Death Cult. - https://iguanadeathcult.bandcamp.com/

Milk for the Angry - https://milkfortheangry.bandcamp.com/
Suuns - https://suuns.bandcamp.com/music

All of them played separately, but recently at Lo Bar Social Club in Reno (a venue I still have yet to visit, but they keep getting some interesting bands and their cover is crazy cheap (usually $5-10).

Vice Grip @ Tahoe City Golf Course
I saw these local West Shore Tahomies play an acoustic set back in October, but still haven’t seen ‘em electric, but they got chops…


Most of these gigs I blew off due to weather, being mad tired after work, or I simply spaced and forgot.


Hoping I will be ready to rally for Charlie Hunter and Thunder Pussy in a coupla weeks…

Big mistake on your part Seen her twice now and she puts on a helluva show!

Grand Targhee Bluegrass lineup is fuego.

No doubt. I was planning on hitting Renewal, but may have to reconsider.

There is no renewal, so your choice is easy. TBG lineup is even better for 2025 than 24:

Yeah, so I heard.
TheFrush and his lady went and he sent me song-by-song updates which gave me serious post-fomo (and I rarely, if never, get fomo!).

Most excellent show

Was down in Reno today for a dentist appointment.
After I went and spent far too much $$$ on records and comic books.

When I walked into the local record store they were playing this:

I immediately bought a copy.

Turns out they actually played in Reno earlier this year. Now they are on my “gotta see live” list.

In the meantime:

Had a 4th row ticket to see that show but they cancelled due to "inclement weather", but I think it was actually poor ticket sales.

Most excellent show

Still bummed they canceled the Reno gig last month.
I saw the very second show on the tour and they hadn’t ironed out any kinks and Vai seemed conflicted in terms of trying to sound exactly like Fripp.
I saw some footage of later in the tour and he definitely was letting loose a lot more than when I saw him.
