chuckrh Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 if i die tmrw, i can rest easy knowing that Nick Cave is probably the best performer ever.I was very disappointed when I found out he was skipping Seattle this tour. Nick (& the Bad Seeds!) always put on a phenomenal show. Link to post Share on other sites
Oil Can Boyd Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 if i die tmrw, i can rest easy knowing that Nick Cave is probably the best performer ever.It was a great great show. Unfortunately (for me) I was in the balcony. It was pretty intense up there but must have been nuts right up front. Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 yeah i think it's always worth it to suck up the (quite substantial) cost and get as close as possible at a Nick Cave show.i was two rows from behind the orchestra pit, and paid $250 face value. and that was the farthest away i've been to the three shows i've seen.

I miss blixa bargeld some but warren ellis is special. did you see grinderman when he toured that? the show i saw people in the front were yelling for bad seed song & managed to piss nick off. the intensity level at that show was unbelievable.

tinnitus photography Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 yeah i caught Grinderman as well, which was also fantastic. people can be such ignorant jerks sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites
roadhse ma Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 George Clinton & Punk did a surprisingly strong show last night in Beverly at The Cabot. I had low expectations having seen a mailed in performance the House of Blues earlier in the year.George was in decent voice and the band was full of energy with the usual circus like fun atmosphere he had the audience dancing all night.

tinnitus photography Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 i wasn't able to sequence it... the songs are in the order i added them, which is a bit annoying. plus, the B Sides comp isn't on spotify so that means "Little Empty Boat" and "Opium Tea" are not included. here goes:https://open.spotify.com/user/tinnitus_photo/playlist/6R5YBmSzauIJcFPrtKA6Dh Link to post Share on other sites

theashtraysays Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I haven't seen him since he was about 20! Have fun! Thanks! My first time; he's always been a favorite of mine but never had a chance to see him. So a bit of a bucket list guy for me. Highly underrated imo. And btw he's 63 now. Just sayin' Link to post Share on other sites
kidsmoke Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 He cannot be 63 because that would mean that I......oh never mind. I got to see Joe at an L.A. meet-and-greet when he and "Look Sharp!" were fresh and new. It was cool. We all got a necktie like the polka-dotted one he wears on that album's back cover...I still have it!I just pulled out that album to refresh my memory...I had forgotten he autographed it!

theashtraysays Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Good show (Joe Jackson). His pipes are still in great shape, band was good (Grahan Maby on bass!).The crowd was MUCH OLDER than I was expecting... not sure why that shocked me, but a really old crowd.Highlight was a slowed down version of Steppin' Out (like the Live 1980-86 album). New stuff was good too.Nothing on the schedule now till that festival thing next weekend. Can't wait to see everyone!Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.... sorry for the thread diversion. Link to post Share on other sites
