  • Re: USCHO Music Thread 4: Songs She Sang to Me, Songs She Brang to Me

    So, New Order is touring. There's a whole credit card commercial or something based on that. Told a friend a few weeks ago that I don't think I could go see them, since Peter Hook isn't in the band anymore. If you know the band, you know what an integral part of their sound his bass playing is. Maybe THE part of their sound. Stuff I've heard from their latest album without him, and the songs sound more traditionally structured in their use of the bass as an instrument.

    So yesterday, I see that Peter Hook is touring, roughly the same time. And in Boston. Ordered tickets immediately. Apparently he's performing both New Order's and Joy Division's Substance albums(singles collections) in their entirety. Now this should be fun.
    What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

      Husked Du will be on rotation all weekend, it's been too long.

      I can't believe Grant Hart is gone. ****...

      I think it would have been possible for a reunion despite what Grant and Bob were saying. The current reissue lent promise of better communications.

        This is a beautiful song with lyrics that so loudly resonate with the world today.

          Sat to the left of and 6 rows from the stage. My ears finally stopped bleeding. Offspring kicked a*s and tore down the house. The 4 of them set the stage on fire. If you like them, see them. Well worth the price of admission. Sublime with Rome seemed more like a cover band to me.

            I'm curious if anyone checked that song out. I keep going back to it. I had never heard of them until it was played while listening to my stations on iHeart. Apparently they were quite big in the UK & Europe but it doesn't sound like they ever had much of a following across the pond.

              Full binge mode on the Floyd since that Gilmour thingy in the theater - I do this when I see a band live and it's weird, but it felt like I went to a show last week.

              Grabbed another 15-20 shows from Yeeshkul, so my ratio took a hit but I have a substantial live Floyd collection and just keep adding to it.

              In the past week...

              Animals
              Meddle
              Division Bell (yes, I actually like this one)
              The Endless River
              Is this the Life We Really Want
              Rattle That Lock
              Gilmour - In Concert
              Remember That Night
              Atom Heart Mother
              Obscured

              Gilmour - 7/11/16 Verona, Italy

              Waters - 7/26/84 Rosemont with Clapton in his band
              Waters - 7/22/17 Chicago show I saw

              Floyd - 11/21/70 Montreux
              4/28/72 Chicago
              8/6/80 London
              9/22/87 Toronto
              8/21/94 Berlin
              9/17/94 Modena


              No end in sight as I now have those 15-20 new shows to check out.

              Of course I've listened to other things interspersed, but I've got an itch to scratch right now.

              Currently hearing 6/22/94 from the Humpty Dump.

              Were you there Slap?


              EDIT: This Metrodome show is outstanding. David is into this one for sure - very engaged. Really good sound too. Odd, but I can hear the room - not really an echo, but rather sound in a really BIG enclosed space. Cool.

                  ahhh ****. No VPN?

                  Maybe this will work. If not the song is If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next by Manic Street Preachers.

                    That works.

                    What about my other question. Were you at that Floyd show?

                      Sorry I missed that. Yes I was at that show. For as lousy as the sound was typically at the HHH for concerts Floyd pulled off an amazing atmosphere and the set list was tremendous, dominated by older works although iirc they didn't play anything from Animals which would have been my only minor complaint.
