Concert Calendar (Of Things I Didn’t Mention Yet)
There’s not a whole lot on the calendar right now, but it’s a decent time for an update I guess. First off, Buckethead is playing with That 1 Guy, and I just bought my ticket for that. It’s hard to write too much about Buckethead because he’s the kind of guy who locks himself in a room with only his guitar and stuffed animals to write 27 albums. I’m hoping though there’s a good Bucketheadland blend of things during the show; I could see his material blending together some, especially with a longer set. I guess Tiffy is going to see him, but not the same show I’m going to. Alicia won’t be going though Robert said he might go with me to the show, but it’s on the pricy side, I paid $18.50 with charges. As long as I get all eight fingers, some funky bootsy beats, nun chuka kata shredding, and some colma guitar, it’ll be worth it. Also, he should do the robot, and break out his nunchaku.
Henry Rollins is coming as well, and I’ve seen him a whole slew of times, but I guess he’s doing a wrap up of the presidency of Bush, and I’m always curious to hear what he has to say. My oratory also greatly increases in quality after I see him, so I can look forward to that as well. If anybody happens to want to replace my copy, I owned Letters To Rollins, and I don’t anymore and I’d really like it back.
Around that same time, Mindless Self Indulgence will be coming around. The new album is enjoyable enough, but Never Wanted To Dance is the clear highlight. Hopefully they’ll play some of the other hits, or rather, songs that I learned to particularly like for whatever reason. They may’ve pioneered the whole Hot Topic thing, but there’s not a whole lot of stuff similar to MSI I feel, so it’s nice to get some different things in there.
Last and certainly not least, SNFU is coming pretty close, so I think I’m going to try and make the trek to see, well, at this point, one of the guys who invented the music I grew up listening to. Even if the membership is quite different, and arguably it’s not the same band at all, I’d still rather see a questionable SNFU than no SNFU at all.
