Upcoming shows?

[Ian Jane]

Going to see Sacrifice, the Japanese thrash band from the 80's, in January. Their first US appearance ever.

On the flip side, 12/28 is supposedly the last Poison Idea show ever, and I've got tickets for that too.

[Mark Tolch]

I haven't seen him in many years — I got tired of seeing essentially the same set list year after year after year. I would primarily be going to see Dave and NBT.

He was doing that thing for awhile as well where he would do a bunch of covers in the middle of his set, which was annoying as hell. Last time I saw him, he would talk for 10 minutes, play a song, talk for 5 minutes, etc. We were there for 45 minutes (waiting for Unknown Hinson), and he played about 4 songs.

I'm contemplating going to Toronto to see that Rev show. He pissed me off last time he played here and I swore never again, but hey, Dave Alvin.

Rev. Horton Heat is playing around Thanksgiving in Chicago. He's dragging along Voodoo Glow Skulls, Dave Alvin and -- wow!! -- New Bomb Turks.

The weekend before that is Chicago/burb legends Sidekick Kato (played this time last year, but they've been essentially retired since the early 00's).

[Ian Jane]

Gonna go see High On Fire with Power Trip and Devil Master in Brooklyn on 11/22.

Just bought kinda spendy tickets for the Jane Birkin 'Le Symphonique' tribute to Serge Gainsbourg. It features a full orchestra as well as appearances from Charlotte Gainsbourg and Iggy Pop. Should be rad.

DEAD CAN DANCE is touring North & South America in April/May 2020. Not close enough for me, but for those better situated: https://www.deadcandance.com/live

[Tom Clark]

Might see Nick Lowe in November should funds allow. Solo acoustic show.

[Ian Jane]

Yeah, they were fun every time I saw them. Joel was also a really friendly guy the few times I met him. The new album is pretty bad ass.

[Mark Tolch]

They were probably the best out of the opening acts. I enjoyed them.

[Ian Jane]

They put on a good show even without Oderous.

How was Toxic Holocaust? I haven't seen them since I lived in PDX.

[Mark Tolch]

On a whim last night, I went to see GWAR. Toxic Holocaust, Against the Grain, and Sacred Reich opened. A friend of mine, who is probably the biggest GWAR fan I've ever known, paid 400 dollars for VIP tickets which got him a meet and greet, soundcheck, tickets to the show, and the opportunity to be stuffed into a meat grinder while Gwar covered AC/DC. I have to say that I'm not familiar with Gwar past Ragnarock, and the new singer is no Dave Brockie, but it was a good time with a lot of spraying bodily fluids and dicks and bodily fluids and nipples and more dicks and more fluid. They were plenty entertaining.

[Ian Jane]

Going to see Pentagram tonight with Bobby Liebling now out of jail. I'm expecting it to be a bit of a shit show, but we'll see.

[Ian Jane]

Thor is playing in Brooklyn in May!
