Inhalien User Info... | Saw them Wednesday night at the Commodore. Opened with Pitbull (they're from Texas too). Progressive sound, energetic, nothing new. They used a triggered sub-boom-tube in a couple songs and it was tastefull but I got the feeling they were playing to backing tracks on tape. RevCo: The Revolting Cocks were lots of fun and just like the video I had of them from around '91. Between the Orc masks, penis costumes, girls on stage, it was truly something wonderful. The main singer was Nivek Ogre but I wasn't so sure at first, especially when he changed from the Hitler costume to a dress. Drummer from Opiate of the masses was unbelievable. Drummed flawlessly. His wife was on bass and she plays okay with a minus 7 for stage presence. Ministry: Good, loud, violent set with oldies and 6 or so off the new album. New stuff was fun and they sped up some of the old stuff - played really well. Joey Jordison from Slipknot on drums and was brutally fast. Guitar work was much better than previous albums, Alien knows how to play now. All in all a good show, ended just after 1PM. Bass was so loud, no chance of hearing anyone talk. Anyone else go?

Sati User Info... | I went to this. I wasn't into RevCo, like I'd hoped to be, and went outside half way through it. I was expecting long, slow & dirty (his deep, sexy voice) like an old tape I had, but it really seemed to be all dance shmaltz and costuming to me with not so much heart. Certainly FLAMBOYANT! I also thought all that sarcasm re homesexuality etc was tired. I think we're all past that, or it can be put in a more clever way, at least. Ministry were great! The only thing was that the songs I was really into went too long, but someone pointed out that thats industrial for you. They played something (2nd to last, or so?) with a really unique, prominent guitar lick that was featured alone for a bit. That song was brilliant, and went all over the place with crazy time signatures, slowed down, sped up, wonky textures everywhere. I was really impressed with that one... it showed how capable they are of doing challenging work in addition to the straight up stuff everyone can get into, and it seemed to show that they go beyond whats expected of them to keep themselves fresh. Also, I talked with a guy there who said that he normally wouldn't have paid that much for a concert ticket, but he thinks a lot of what they stood for (80's anti-Reagan sentiment) so he made sure to be there to support. Cool when a band brings out fans for various reasons.. depth. - Thu, 8 Jun 2006 12:55pm Edited: Thu, 8 Jun 2006 1:02pm | ||
Jay Raymond User Info... | I saw the tuesday show... I went mostly for Revco. Pitbull Daycare sucked. I was hoping that there would be a band that didn't sound like nu-metal/indutrial modern shit, i thought they'd at least have a piano with candles or SOMETHING.... Revco slayed on Tuesday, Luke Van Aker was fucking hilarious in those white converalls... Stanless Steel Providers ruled... i didn't even really watch ministry, but i heard that revco wasn't as good the second night. The best was when they duct-taped van aker and threw him, arms bound, on top of the crowd. Crowd serfing with his arms tied up, avaitors on and white coveralls = comedy gold! fuck yeah - Wed, 14 Jun 2006 3:17pm | ||
