I mean, if that's not something to get excited about, what is?!?!?!

Also, even when I saw him for the Wolf tour, it was basically the entire I Get Wet album.  Either way…I'm pretty pumped.

this isn't a snark, or a put down, or a test of your composure around me . . . but don't you think, even if you worship the artist, that if they have to do one of these "i'm going to play a whole album show" it really means, "i'm washed up, can't make new stuff that is decent, so i'll relive the days that were great"?  but then again, is that bad?  i can't decide.  the only album in the history of albums that i would love to see a band do would be ween  pure guava . . . and that is only because they would finally be forced to fucking play mourning glory live.

yawn.

Nonesense. An album can be as much an artistic statement as an individual song.

Moreover, whether an artist is "washed up" and can't write new songs people want to listen to is irrelevant.. performing music live is art itself: it may be good art or bad art…  and if people want to hear it live and pay for that privilege so much the better. The idea that the only artistic expression musicians have open is writing new songs is very simplistic and childish.

Really dude.. try harder if you're going to be a downer!
it was just a question.  you seem to be the one who enjoys being an ass and attacking me for just asking a question of nkotb.  i seem to remember your name isn't nkotb.  i will not attack you back.  who cares really, right.

Hey I agree.. talk to Walkie who feels like sharing his wisdom/opinion about every fucking show/thing; always negative of course..

People stick to the new shows for stevewizzle's sake




Psychedelic Furs

March 17

I note this is their second area show since falling on IMPs shitlist cause of their last minute cancellation of the 30th Year Anniversary of the 930 Club Show.. they played the Fillmore last year as I recall.
Also not sure if anyone posted
