I'm going to see Neurosis and Converge on July 29th (my birthday). I've seen Neurosis before, and I'm probably more excited to see them this time... They're excellent live. Converge, I'm happy to add to my list too, tho I haven't listened to them much in the last 15 years or so.

Hell yes. One of the greatest rock shows one can see. Bellamy is a bonefied rock god.

I've seen them a ton - my best friends sister used to date Dom (drummer) for many years, so we would always get backstage. They put on a great show.

I'm seeing them in Central Park on Monday. Fucking stoked. I've never seen a show there.

Good to hear. Probably going to catch them at Outside Lands.

The line to get in after they cleared out the venue due to the weather was insane. Looking at the setlists from their other shows, it looks like the weather forced them to shorten their set. Can't complain though, the show was amazing.

You won't be disappointed.

Yea, we got there thinking we'd hit the end of Vince's set and we were basically standing across the street from Yards lol. Took long to get in; it was Vince's last song. Still a really great show - visually amazing too.

I share this story all the time so sorry if it's a repeat but one of my favorite concert cred stories was when I saw Radiohead touring Pablo Honey in an Orlando club with like 100 other people. Was fucking great.

I was not disappointed. I left Gorillaz to check out alt-J and went back to Gorillaz after just a few songs. Really fun show.

Fleet Foxes were also surprisingly impressive.

Finally saw NIN @ The Joint in Vegas.

Mostly played "the hits" with a couple new songs thrown in, not much as far as deep tracks, but for my first NIN show, I could not be happier.

Sorry for potato quality:

I would like to see Iron Maiden again but with Bruce Dickinson, last time it wasn't and it was a huge surprise and disappointment albeit great seats.

A+++ Royal Blood/Queens last night. Was a little worried they were only going to do shit from Villians but they opened with If I Had A Tail and did something from evvvvery album. Incredible encore with Lost My Headache. Well worth dealing with the sea of Boston humanity.

Finally got to see Ozzy at Aftershock last night. Glad to finally check that one off, as I don't think he has much longer left.
