Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus Murder Ballads Both on Spotify if you have that. Also worth listening to his first band The Birthday Party - Junk Yard and another band of his Grinder man.
Let me know what you think. Stagger Lee on Murder Ballads is their current closer, great track with mental lyrics about a murderous gay cowboy.
I've posted this link before It's a fantastic site for music concert aficionados....you won't be able to see the bands that you missed but there's a good chance that there is a sound recording of a concert from a band in the era that you wished you had attended, you can download or stream them. Just scroll down the list on the left to find an artist... http://tela.sugarmegs.org/bands.aspx
Black Flag and Aerosmith, Would have loved to have seen Rollins in full-on **** you mode. I've seen Rammestein several times, never fail to deliver. Skindred is another band which always bring their A game
I'd still like to see Tool, Iron Maiden and Rammstein. I don't much listen to them nowadays but I'd like to see them given half a chance. In an ideal world I was born in 1950 and could see Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. Oh well. I had Spice Girls as a kid...
yep saw them twice unfortunately i got the pissed and the barely there. The second time Shane staggered on about 10 mins after the rest with a half finished bottle of whiskey in his hand mumbled a few lines which were barely coherent and then clearly couldn't remember the rest.Rest of gig carried on like that till he ****ed off to & rest carried on without him The guys i was with kept telling me "you should have been with us last tour it was ****ing brilliant" which just made it worse.
He's still tarnished by them it is true. Only just getting used to him in a Liverpool strip. Doing really well though.
The premier of the Rites of spring in Paris 1913, would have been fun. There was a near riot with 40 arrests it was a right old tear up.
If I could go back in time, I’d go back and see the Grateful Dead. Probably their European tour in 1972, when Pigpen McKernan was still alive. I have a remastered bootleg recording of one their Lyceum on the Strand shows from that tour; but by all accounts you never really knew what you were going to get with the dead because they always took risks, and risks don’t always come off. They didn’t strike gold every night, but that seems to have been what made it so great when they did. Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir believed themselves to be genuinely telepathic on stage together; that might have been the drugs, but if so, the music says the drugs worked wonders.
