Strider Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) Going to three shows at least this week: Monday Aug. 13: Grandaddy w/ Earlimart @ the Fonda Theatre...THEY'RE BACK! After several years of hiatus/disbandment, the little band from Modesto is reunited...and it feels so GOOD! Tuesday Aug. 14: Alabama Shakes w/ Michael Kiwanuka @ the Fonda Theatre...after hearing and reading raves about this band for nearly a year, I am finally getting a chance to see for myself how good are Alabama Shakes. Thursday Aug. 16: Big Jay McNeely @ Viva Cantina...one of the greats of the 40s and 50s that were part of the development of rock and roll: http://articles.burbankleader.com/2012-08-11/entertainment/tn-blr-0810-sax-man-behind-deacons-hop-still-puts-on-a-lively-show_1_show-stopper-rock-n-roll-grammy-museum Big Jay McNeely is also the subject of one of the iconic photos of the 20th century...taken by Bob Willoughby.

reswati Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Looks really groovy Reswati. Where is that being held? And are you taking "something for the weekend"? It is held in a town in Belgium, called Geel (which means "yellow", hence the name). and yes, i will take some special supplies with me, since it would be beyond stupid to be sober at such festival.

chillumpuffer Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Agreed and maybe if you can remember any of it ,a report from our man in the field? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reswati Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Agreed and maybe if you can remember any of it ,a report from our man in the field? I take a camera with me that can take pictures and film a reasonable quality, so I hope I can write something that makes sense after my return. This is the line up for the 18th: 11.30-12.10 Cat Claw 12.15-13.00 Yama 13.05-13.40 Street Gnar 13.45-14.45 The FLying Eyes 14.50-15.25 The Godless Funk Of Bonanza 15.30-16.30 Glowsun 16.35-17.35 Kadavar 17.40-18.40 Monkey 3 18.45-19.45 Abramis Brama 19.50-20.50 Baby Woodrose 20.55 -22.05 Naam 22.10-23.30 Spectrum 00.00-.. . .. GNOD Since the 5th member/manager/sound engineer of Baby Woodrose just died it is still a question if they are gonna perform or not. personally I am looking forward to see The Flying Eyes, Abramis Brama, Monkey3 and Naam.

They're not bad...particularly if you're stoned. Ok, my schedule got changed at the last minute yesterday, so instead of seeing Alabama Shakes last night at the Henry Fonda Theatre, I went with friends for a classical music evening at the Hollywood Bowl. TONIGHT Aug. 15 I am seeing Alabama Shakes @ the Fox Theatre in Pomona, CA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you love it when you can still jump up and down in a sweaty pub and see exciting new stuff (for $12!) This'll be my 3rd time for these guys who I first saw as a support 4 months ago, and who most in Australia wouldn't have noticed yet... Have a look A bizzare videoclip A festival performance last year Edited August 17, 2012 by shadowblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reswati Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 (edited) Hey Reswati - Have you recovered? More or less, cause it was hotter than hell this weekend, and I managed to get a V shaped sunburn on my chest due to an open blouse. The festival was great, and I will go next year again. Bands that were really impressive: The Flying Eyes, I videotaped their first 2 songs and after that my camera told me to fuck myself. Great set of bluesy spaced out, Doors influenced music. Monkey3 were also very inspiring, even though they had no singer they managed to play some great long jams with lots of very beautiful melodies. The band Baby Woodrose just lost their 5th member/manager but decided to play anyway. Personally I like them better on record, but that's a matter of taste. Naam were just VERY LOUD and menacing, like a Black Sabbath record played twice as slow with hypnotic vocalisms on top. I also managed to see/experience Spectrum. They used a theremin, and their music reminded me of something a cult that worships The Great Old Ones would play as devotional music. As soon as I can upload the 9 minutes video on youtube I will post it. Edited August 20, 2012 by reswati Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebk Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Going to the Virgin Mobile FreeFest. I'm really looking forward to the Alabama Shakes, ZZ Top and Jack White. And despite the fact that I'm about as old as dirt, I've never been to a festival-style concert event before. Should be a fun and interesting day!
