njdevil26 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) Holy crap salad Mae was awesome. If I were to try to remember the setlist it was something like: 1. Embers and Envelopes 2. The House That Fire Built 3. The Breakdown 4. Painless 5. The Ocean 6. Suspension 7. Just Let Go 8. Someone Elses Arms 9. Crazy 8's 10. Summertime 11. Boomerang 12. Anything 13. A Melody, A Memory Also- The band Barcelona was missing their drummer, he had to be home or something. So they did an acoustic guitar/electric guitar mellow performance. They were amazing. Person L with Kenny from the Starting Line was TERRIBLE Edited May 30, 2009 by njdevil26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelastonealive Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 I'm wondering what happens to the TV On The Radio show at Central Park tomorrow night if we get the 1-2 inches of rain that's being predicted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 Apparently SummerStage Central Park shows are Rain or Shine and only canceled due to dangerous lightning. So I'm gonna be one cold wet fvcker tomorrow night. Also: September 27th Starland Ballroom Marcy's Playground, Nine Days, & Jimmie's Chicken Shack "The Modern Rock at the Jersey Shore Reunion" honoring FM 106.3 It's like they took my (long since abandoned and never really properly launched) blog and turned it into a concert.

DaneykoIsGod Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Finally got around to buying my 311 tickets yesterday. By chance I discovered a little deal. When buying lawn seats for a show on LiveNation.com, you don't pay any service fees if you make the purchase on a Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelastonealive Posted June 6, 2009 Author Share Posted June 6, 2009 Apparently SummerStage Central Park shows are Rain or Shine and only canceled due to dangerous lightning.So I'm gonna be one cold wet fvcker tomorrow night. It was indeed cold and wet. And they played WAAAAAAAY too many new songs (the end of the set and the first song of the encore were probably 5 new songs in a row). Still pretty awesome, but that band needs to be experienced up close, not from the fringes of a soaking wet crowd outdoors in NYC. Meh. Next up MAY be Eve 6 in Connecticut in a few weeks, if I can convince my friend to go. She was down for it when she was buzzed, we'll see what happens when she's sober.

njskaguy33 Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Went to NIN / Jane's Addiction on Saturday...prety amazing experience with the Trent Reznor meet and greet. Here's how it went down. - Got an e-mail late Friday night saying to be by the box office at 2:15 for check in. - Around 3:15, once everyone had been checked in, they let the $300 donors (us) in first...there was probably about 200 people there in total, half $1000/$1200 donors and the other half $300. - Once we get in the arena, we are taken by the VIP section where we were broken up into groups of 20 to meet the band. We were in the second group out of about 5 or 6. - Before going in, we are told that the band will be sitting at a table, will be signing on item per person and no cameras what-so-ever. We're also told there will be a photo oppurtunity after the signing, but nobody is to go "around the table" for any reason. - We get into the VIP section, single file and one by one go up to each band member to get our item signed. The order was Rob (guitar), Justin (bass), Trent and Ian (drummer). - Everyone was very nice, especially Rob who took a "special interest" in my girlfriend, which was entertaining. - Being woefully unprepared, we only had our ticket for them to sign which was cool in itself. Even though you litterally got 10 seconds with each person, they all did their best to give you a "moment". It wasn't just sign and move on...each one of them asked you name, introduced themselves (even Trent) and gave you a chance to say something. I made sure to thank Trent for doing this for a great cause and he thanked me for donating. It was just cool to meet a living legend. - Once the line was over, they got everybody together for a group shot with the band. While some people were disappointed, I think the NJ show had the most donors, so there was no way they could do individual photo ops. I'm not a big "pic with the band" kind of guy anyway, so it was fine for me. - Once done with the meet and greet, they ushered down to the lower section to check out the soundcheck. - Jane's Addiction soundchecked first but nobody from the band was actually there. It was just their tech guys jamming. To be honest, I know nothing about JA, so I actually thought it was them until my gf told me it wasn't. Could have fooled me... - After abuot a half hour of setup, NIN (the full band) came on and did a 4 song soundcheck. They played Lights In The Sky, I'm Afraid of Americans (Bowie cover) and two other songs I don't know the titles to. The soundcheck was the best part as Trent was agian conversational with the crowd. Just watching them play in an imtimate setting liek that as unbelievable. - After soundcheck, we were ushered back to the main "concourse" to get our seats, grab food, do whatever. It was nice since it was about 5:30 at his point and gate didn't open until 6, meaning we had free run of the consession stands, tables, etc. before everybody got there. - Since we had lawn seating, we sat dead center in front of the white gate seperating us from the seats. It was nice as we had something to lean against when the bands were on. - Street Sweeper Social Club came on first and was pretty damn good. Turns out that's Tom Morello's (of Rage Against the Machine) new band so watching him play guitar is a treat in itself. Good opening act, ton of energy. - NIN then came on and had a great set as well. Not the best I've seen them but good nonetheless. Only downside was the two drunken 40 someting women who keep talking to each other for the entire show. Totally drunk and obnoxious. - Then Janes Addiction came on, but we had to get away fro mthe Crazy Leverne and Shirley behind us, so we moved, got a table by the conessions and listened to about half their set from afar. They sounded fine but I'm not a huge JA fan, so I cant say exactly how thier set was. - Left about 30 minutes early, had no traffic getting out and that was about it. All in all, it was a pretty amazing experience getting a chance to meet Trent and check out the soundcheck. The show itself was very good too although I have seen them better.

95Crash Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) Cool story, BP! The weather was great on Saturday, so I hung out in the parking lot for a while and missed Morello's band. My seats were in the 400s, second row, which are very good seats apparently. I didn't realize how far back the 400s extend -- there's a big difference between the first couple of rows in the 400s and the last two rows in the 400s. I enjoyed NIN, although they must've played a lot of the newer stuff, because I didn't recognize a bunch of their songs. I mostly like their older stuff. ... For the record, the JA set was electric, although admittedly I could be biased. For a while there, they were one of my favorite bands.

I was thinking about going just to see them but it was kind of a lot of money just to see one of the opening bands since I hate Jane's Addiction and I never really got into Nine Inch Nails. That's an awesome story by the way, sounds like a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpcdev Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Only negative regarding NIN, was that they didn't play Starf*ckers Inc. Otherwise, a 9/10 .... Street Sweeper was a pleasant surprise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
