@mclaincausey those guys are from my neck of the woods and are always a fun time
They do (or used to do) a big all ages show in town every year on 3/4 - we took our oldest to a few of those
-
@jiminstitches thank you!
hmm...my biased version is The Strokes, but production-wise i think it would be Black Sabbath/Slipknot can't really pick one , but of course they all really have their awesomeness in their on way if that makes sense..

Billy Strings cooked up an ass kicking good time last night!
Think it, be it.
-
@ARNC many amps. many,many. my ears are ringing looking at this pic
-
@Matt man I love them. Some of the best records Albini ever worked on IMO.
-
@Eza funny story about them from one of my wife’s colleagues: https://www.townandcountrymag.com/the-scene/parties/a29563421/bronson-van-wyck-born-to-work-forced-to-party-book-excerpt/

@mclaincausey LOL wild thanks for sharing
-
@mclaincausey oh man does he kick ass. Saw him two nights in Santa Barbara awhile back and I still think about those shows regularly.
Second night he got stoned and just played through the set break acoustic by himself. Was next level. -
@TENDREL I don’t think there’s a better live music experience out there. They play every note like their lives depend upon it, have a great catalog blending old timey, rock, and psychedelic covers and originals, and have serious production now.

DOJ need to break up the brokers, forbid them from owning venues or having stakes in businesses that do, forbid them from exclusive contracts with venues, forbid them from owning stakes in secondary market brokers, and disembowel their executive leadership and board in front of a live audience at the Gorge in Washington.
-
@mclaincausey I’d buy tickets to that…
I briefly looked at tickets for Taylor Swift for Laura and the girls a few months ago and decided it was cheaper to go on a vacation.
-
Unrelated thought: Pearl Jam exclusively issues electronic tickets and exclusively allows sales on the ticket broker’s site, with a cap on how much can be charged over face value. This kills scalping in one stroke.
At this point; any act you see who fails to do this is just an asshole.
Think it, be it.

Independent venues in the US are a dying breed. This unspeakable conglomerate has been buying them up like crazy, which is why my proposed regulations included a wall of separation between the ticket brokers and the venues.
