They were tight, but they played everything at like 200 bpm, so I didn't even recognize half the songs until halfway through the set...

So, basically the same mess as last time.
Honestly, I'm just glad I didn't go. 😬

I mean, for God's sake, when you don't recognize a song that's been my literal ringtone for five years until the first chorus hits... I don't know, it just feels a little off. 😁

They didn't have them in New York City.
That’s why I’m asking—is that shirt actually their standard merch for every stop on the tour, or did someone just decide to cook up something special just for the Chicago show?

Since the dawn of time, there’s always been the "popular" crowd and the ones lurking in the shadows. It’s nothing new, even here on Reddit. 😁

In my humble opinion, the popular users are usually—almost without exception—witty, sarcastic, articulate, and just generally sharp. They know how to hold their own, which makes them easy to notice and even harder to forget. I think that pretty much sums it all up...

I was actually standing right on that side of the crowd 🤔
🤷

Man, the show was killer though 😍

The first time they lit things up behind the drum riser, then the second time it was off to the left of the stage 😁

And seriously, what's the deal with those "Chicago belongs to me" t-shirts? 🤔

mistynomad26 said:redmarlin3, can you send me the link from The New York Times website where this was mentioned? I tried looking for it myself, but I'm coming up empty...
Thanks,

Unfortunately, I can't... it was actually in the print edition. I know for a fact it came out right after the Patton verdict; he was on the cover, and the headline asked, "Were we to be an aggressor"... based on how many stories were packed in there, I'm pretty sure it was the Sunday supplement, so April 17th, I think. 🤔
That whole article was part of those Sunday features.

The New York Times recently ran this list featuring over 100 people from the American public eye, detailing exactly which high schools and colleges they graduated from.

From what I can recall, guys like Michael Bloomberg and Jerry Jones don't even have college degrees...

There’s no way those Sparreri tickets are going to sell out, honestly, zero chance. 🙂
I’ve already heard whispers from a few different circles that Ritam Nered is heading to New York City, but I haven't a clue when, where, why, or how... everything is just so vague, you know? It's all just talk at this point... 😕

goldencobra3 said:I don't care when or where, I just absolutely have to see Ritam Nered and Goblin 🙏

Oh yeah, you definitely need to catch Goblin... they're worth it.👍
I missed them a while back—they were playing in St. Louis a few months ago, and unfortunately, I couldn't make it.

As for Ritam Nered, they'll be at Lollapalooza this July. 🤷

Carol Rodriguez16 said:But hey, patience pays off. I actually managed to pull off my little dream trip to Coachella last year... it was totally worth the money and the travel. Honestly, if they end up playing somewhere nearby again, I’d be more than happy to keep you company at the show, redmarlin3. 😁

It's a deal. 😁
As for me, just being short on cash kept me from making it out to Coachella this time around...

Gregory Long70 said:People say it's sandy. 😁

And I'm with them on that. 🤣

Well, a concert in some exclusive little sanctuary... honestly, never happened quite like that before. 😛 😁

Not trying to go off-topic here, but I really want to see Bad Religion.

I just realized the skin looks a little different on certain subforums. Or maybe it's just specific threads... 😕 I haven't quite figured out what the logic is behind it yet. 😬

Spereri, Spereri 👋

Noah Jackson5 said:Fine, go ahead and start your own festival and book whatever bands you want... though booking someone like System of a Down would cost an absolute fortune, and Motörhead would be just as pricey... If you're feeling cheap, just grab a hundred bucks and head to some local indie show where I'll be stuck listening to these "charming" little garage bands while everyone enjoys the "great atmosphere." 🙂

Oh yeah, right. Everything worth doing costs money. 😉

I’ve had just about enough of all those various little indie bands whining and moaning. Personally, I’d much rather listen to Motörhead, System of a Down, or Bad Religion.

Moved.

I ended up pulling that thread because, at first glance, it didn't look all that constructive. It hadn't even picked up a single reply, and honestly, I was second-guessing whether it even belonged under Music or if it should have been over in something like Television... But hey, if everyone else thinks we should bring it back, fine by me. We can just restore it. 🙂

Alright, now I can finally see him clearly.

🤦

Well, for hell's sake 🙏 🙏 🙏

Hey everyone,

Instead of getting the usual 🤦 emoji, I’m seeing some weird little glitchy image on my end.

It looks exactly like this:



WTF? 😕😕
