Concerts You've Been / Want To Go To / Are Going To..!

My mate finally got confirmation for VNV Nation for his club next month. Woo!

Whoop!! Im off to see Dio in November.

TOTAL LEGEND!!!!

Seriously debating just maxing my credit card and seeing Alice Cooper in Sheffield. My best girl's big sister lives there so I could always get a free crash for the night

is ANYONE going to see Emilie Autumn in DC at 9:30 club on 11/30?? I'm dying to go, but none of my friends like her so I'm trying to find someone to go with.

Off to see VNV Nation tomorrow.

i am debating if I want to bother to see AFI. I am not a fan of their new work, but their older stuff is some of my favorite music

Chelsea, I had a half-inkling, but then I forgot my promise to not go 9:30 ever again unless my very, very fave bands were there. It's just such a pain for me to get there. You're in the city though, no? Hey...I always tell my friends to go alone, they might meet someone fun! : )

I'm going to see crackjaw and rotation on halloween.
I'm also going to see bowling for soup on the 15th of november... Hopefully.

I really like AFI. I have a soft spot in my heart for Sing The Sorrow & The Art of Drowning; didn't like Decemberunderground as much.

I'd like to see them live, but I'm not sure it'd be worth wading through all the 11-year-olds. When did their music start appealing to pre-teens?

lol, technically I live in PG Co. MD, my house is on the District border (Eastern Avenue), but it only takes me about 10 minutes to drive there. I'll probably just end up going alone because I really want to see her. At least my friend is a bartender there, so if she's working that night I'll get a hook-up at the bar.

IF you really do want to go, I could always pick you up from a metro stop or something

Ohh, is it cheaper to live across the border like that? I'd probably have much more culture in my life if it weren't such a pain in the arse to get into the city, haha.

Aren't you a doll! (checks calendar) Of course, I will be working the next morning at 6:30 am, so, it would be best if I left you to your devices this time. Sorry! I will keep that in mind if anything else interesting arises though. : D

Take LOADS of pics!!

I love the art of drowning. And pre-teens started to like AFI with decemberunderground and Crash Love, the newest album, maybe a little bit of Sing the Sorrow.

^^ I visited their site for the first time in months... something tells me I won't be wild about the new CD. :-( And all the teeny-bopper comments made me a little nauseous. Well, things change I guess.

^^^yup. it makes me sad but musicians grow. I listened to parts of their new album and it very alternative rock. Nothing too different sounding from everything else.

I really liked AFI's older work, but their new stuff is hit or miss with me. I think what I dislike most about AFI, is that instead of being leaders of the scene they've been a apart of for 15 years now, they seem to be following trends. When you're in your mid-thirties and in a band for half your life, you shouldn't be followers, you should be leaders.

I agree. I would have expected them to mature into a different sound, which they did but that sound might be different than their past work but its the same as everyone elses work

I'm not sure if this technically counts.... But I'm going to see Bill Engvall perform this weeked.

Went to see Misfits tuesday night. They were amazing as were the two opening bands. I went with my friend and we both got slammed around by the mosh pit. I got kicked in the head a couple times from the crowd surfers who all decieded they had to come our way. Got to meet Jerry Only after the show so I couldn't of been happier.

^^^wow thats awesome

I'll be seeing the Misfits on Friday, we'll see who gets kicked in the head more.
