Anyone else going? Should be a fantastic gig. The Living End are awesome, dont miss them! I've never seen the Dropkick's live so that should be fun, and LTJ are well.. LTJ! :D
 
Well i'm back. The Living End were (as expected) the best of the bill :D LTJ were obviously great fun, and we pretty much missed the first band so i couldnt say. It was a shame about the Dropkick Murphy's... i'd never seen them before and didnt know a whole lot of their stuff, but they were very dissapointing live. All noise really -- i'd heard so much good about them too :(

I've only heard a handful of LTJ songs but those that I've heard I really like. I might have to check out some of their albums, which would you recommend???

Tis quite a funny question considering the sheer amount of albums LTJ have released :D

I guess The Pez Collection would be a good start, considering it's a kind of 'best-of'. I've personally got Losing Streak, Hello Rockview and Borders and Boundaries. Out of those i'd get the first two, as they still play stuff from them regularly. Then i guess you could check out the latest albums, of which i know absolutely nothing about, but the stuff sounded pretty good live :p

I'm not really an authority on LTJ by the way. I like them, but i dont adore them!

Saw them last night.

The Living End stole the show, standing on his bass while playing :D

I felt quite let down with the DKM's, they were just a wall of noise, although 'Spicey McHaggis Jig' was certainly entertaining :)

Yeah i've seen the Living End a few times and he always does that. Pretty impressive :D And how damn good is the guitarist? You might not hear it as well live, but get some tracks and sometimes its just like :eek: Cool!

"Wall of noise" is exactly how i, my two friends, and my sister described the DKMs. Doh. :\
