Upcoming shows- Thom Yorke solo show, Auckland, October 26th Bob Mould solo show, Auckland, November 23rd Childish Gambino, Auckland, January 28th Super grass, Melbourne, AU, June 7th
i thought supergrass was done! i was thinking of going back to ireland next summer. might have to line that up with the supergrass gigs in dublin.
one of the best bands of the last 30 years. criminally underrated. i have actually had i should coco in my rotation the last couple weeks. pretty impressive that they put that one out when they were still teenagers. saw them once in austin about 20 years ago at la zona rosa.
nice! Quite the lineup. mine aren't as cool as aforementioned, but Kruelty (metal band from Tokyo they're bad*ss) back in January, Lost Dog Street band (they covered Townes van Zandt twas awesome) last month, and the obsessed Friday night. My nephew and I are going to the Deftones in March and Pantera/Metallica in June at NRG.
So update on this. I did get to see Built to Spill in Asheville. At the River Arts District. About 2-3 weeks before the ENTIRE district FLOODED. Lol. Insane. Bands wont be heading back to Asheville anytime soon I imagine. Awesome show though. And Dino JR opened for Weezer, so saw them too.
Seen in 2024: U2 Pixies/Modest Mouse/Cat Power Cake New Pornographers/Mountain Goats Waxahatchee Green Days/Smashing Pumpkins/Rancid Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit Weezer/Flaming Lips/Dinosaur Jr. Jesus and Mary Chain/Psychedelic Furs Upcoming 2024: Drive-by Truckers Slowdive 2025: Nick Cave Deftones Oasis
My son's Kindergarten teacher is the cousin of one of the Weezer dudes. Last night, I listened to two small private concerts, at the same event: First, Jon Batiste - so talented. Then, Diana Ross (also featuring her daughter Rhonda). Can't believe that lady is 80 - seems like someone who is at most 60.
****ing amazing weekend in ATX. This is my church, bros. Went hard for 16-18 hours a day, came home yesterday and slept for 14 hours. My 32yo DJ friend who was in the festie crew asked me how I was younger than him. Still some gas left in the 1973 model X, my dudes.
Does Gambino still have Auckland on? I had tickets to see him here in HOU and was minutes away from leaving for Toyota Center when I got the news the show was postponed…and then he cancelled Europe dates. Turns out he’s been here in Houston the entire time getting medical attention, but not sure for what specifically. I love that dude so much. Hope you get to see him…and hope he comes back around Houston soon when he’s feeling better.
