MUZAK - Whatcha listen'n to???

[toxicavenger]

I took my son to see Tool at Hard Rock Live last week. It’s not often you get a chance to see them at such a small venue. They did not disappoint.

My daughter saw them, Alice Cooper, and Filter. She said it was a great concert.

How “heavy” was the set list?
I have really disliked the last album, and liked 2 songs from 10000 days.
I’m a huge fan of ænima and lateralus, the latest stuff sounds like I’d have to be on acid to appreciate.
Saw them two times back in the mid 2000’s (the 10000 days tour) in Paris.
They are incredible musicians but I did not like
1/ the fans they have in Europe are 50% rock/metal fans and 50% people with purple/rasta hair, piercings in the nostrils and a tormented relationship with soap who came to the concert so smashed that I felt like a straight edge for only drinking 6 beers.
2/ the band played impossibly long “drone” solos, with light and smoke (probably to cater to this second 50%).
I wasn’t as excited looking at 12 minutes of
Weeeeeeeeeeooewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz bzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Weeeeeeooooooooowwwwwwwww

Listening to Vicarious, 46&2, parabol etc etc was fantastic though, and ultimately worth the experience. Probably would not do again, Vs stuff like old Slayer or Motörhead or Opeth that I’ve seen 10+ times always with great joy.

Have you seen this one?

I’ve watched many videos, but I had not come across that one yet. That’s fantastic. He makes me wanna learn to play guitar.

I’ve downloaded every album and I put them on shuffle play at night when I’m going to sleep.

It’s as if he is speaking through his fingers

Had some time today to read and listen to tunes so put on the Buckethead while reading from Tolkien Unfinished Tales. Started with 2006 Crime Slunk Scene and didn't like that much. Thinking this Bucketguy is like thousands of other good guitarists that can play but ho hum. Shut that off and tried 1998 Colma. So much better. Ok this guy is talented. Read through his Wiki page. Holy crap he's close to my age and has published material like a fountain that was pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain (anyone recognize that reference lol ?). I'm impressed.

I think he was putting out one or two albums a year. When he plays the guitar it seems like it is story he is telling. John (can’t spell his last name) from RHCP has some solo stuff that is heart wrenching.

The guy is a machine!

This dropped yesterday. The solo begins about 7:20 in. It’s lovely.

Here’s the set list. It was a nice mix of old and new. 10,000 days is my favorite album, but I love all their releases.

Saw them at a music festival on a trip to Iceland back in 2019. Their music is just like their homeland, icy and cool.

Catching up on some bands I have tickets to this season, so here's some music from Morgan Wade, Pearl Jam, Neil Young, and Smashing Pumpkins.

Not sure why I don't see a preview when I post a youtube video.

Listening to late 80's - early 90's Megadeth this afternoon/ evening. The high school and college jams seem to creep onto the playlist lately. I don't think I've heard some of these in many years, but oddly many I feel like I still know every note.
