oofrostonoo Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 How is Roseland Ballroom? I've never been there but will be seeing Primus at that place September 30th. It's a good place. Decent sight-lines; solid sounds. I saw Phoenix play there 2 years ago and had a great time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a big hall. Nice bar at the back. The sound in the place is really good also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microwavepizza Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 (edited) apparently weezer and the flaming lips are doing something "different".. taking turns playing songs the whole time. like.. weezer will play 2, flaming lips will play two, they'll play a few togeether, alternating stuff like that. not sure if I'm thrilled about that. so stoked for the blink concert and those f'ing awesome seats man! where are y'all sitting that you sold those puppies?? I know "life is a highway". dats it. I'm looking to get laid, so I don't care if it's the 3rd grade local choir groups concert-- if it's gonna make her happy, i'll do it. sounds interesting (about the weezer/flaming lips thing) well see how it is thursday haha we got seats in the 100 section center (i dunno my girlfriend got em somehow on ticketbastard) well yeah then its worth it to go to some lame concert... haha Edited July 25, 2011 by Microwavepizza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I think you guys will enjoy it. Even if you don't like the Lips' music, their stage show is crazy, and it looks like it's not changing much even though they're sharing the stage with Weezer, as least according to the singer's twitpic's hand drawings of the stage, hah.

DaneykoIsGod Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Anyone else go to STP last night? Scott sounded really, really good. A little upset they didn't play Interstate Love Song and Dead and Bloated, but couldn't complain about too much. Wow, those are pretty surprising omissions. Interstate Love Song is easily one of their top five songs. Might even be their best. Did they play a lot of post-Tiny Music stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microwavepizza Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Wow... what a great show... Weezer/Flaming Lips @8:30 both bands playing on stage together... The bands came out on a fake door that was opened by the screen and they walked down these stairs against the screen. Rivers and the Flaming Lips Lead singer were encased in their own hamster-ball type bubble and went crowdsurfing while INSIDE the bubble.. and of course, Rivers fell a bunch of times haha when i get pics from my girlfriend, ill post em here The Flaming Lips had some CRAZY videos on a giant rainbow type screen with weird crap... usually up close body parts or 1/2 naked chicks dancing in negative light... but they were def excellent. Their first 3 song set, they came out and confetti went everywhere.. then tons of huge ass balloons began to flow onstage and made their way around PNC... On the sides of the stage about 12-15 girls were wearing mini-dresses and dancing to the songs. The lead singer had a camera mounted to his microphone that was real up-close of his face and was kinda cool. Tons of strobe lights and random colors Weezer played tons of good songs, (My Name Is Jonas, Island In The Sun, Buddy Holly, Perfect Situation, Say It Aint So, Tired Of Sex, just to name a few)during (If You're Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To, Rivers jumped into the crowd and came through the center toward the first walkway @ PNC and sang the rest of the song with tons of fans around him. When the song was done, he hung out near our section for a few minutes taking some photos and giving people high fives, my girlfriend has a nice close pic of him singing while sitting on a rail around section 302/302 After going back and forth for 2 hours, Weezer and the Flaming Lips came out together and played Tangerine, on the side of the stage was a dude in an air suit with a giant star head... so many random things on stage during this time. Also much more confetti and balloons... Last up was The Sweater Song with both bands which was epic... the Flaming Lips singer was carried out on a bounder dressed as a bear and he was shooting confetti and stuff into the air - Show ended around 11:15 Just one crazy awesome concert... if ANYONE has the chance to see either bands, i HIGHLY recommend seeing them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microwavepizza Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) i do agree that it seemed crazy that Flaming Lips played 3 long songs and weezer played 3 shorter songs... and that long ass break where they jammed was boring, but overall i liked it... it was a different experience than anything ive seen before... If the Flaming Lips closed the show after weezer, i would have left during that long ass jam session... but i really did enjoy it when weezer was up and some of the cool crap the Flaming Lips did But im always up for seeing Weezer live and was WAY more excited about their set than the Lips... no question And i LOVED their cover of Paranoid Android... epic BTW the one thing i really hated was the excessive amount of weed being smoked... i got nauseous due to it... i cant stand that crap Edited July 29, 2011 by Microwavepizza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing again over Halloween, another 3 nights at Music Hall of Williamsburg. Going to all 3 lol. Arctic Monkeys in AC. Not much else pre-planned but thats subject to change, I usually get to 2 random gigs a week at lesser known places or something I had no plan to go to.

thelastonealive Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Let's see, on the docket for me is... TV On The Radio & Broken Social Scene at the Mann Theatre in Philly Peter, Bjorn, & John at Maxwells in Hoboken M83 at either Webster Hall or Music Hall of Williamsburg, haven't decided quite yet And maybe Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree at the Best Buy/Nokia/Corporate Sponsorship of the Week Theater in Times Square. I feel like there's gonna be one or two more shows added between now and Christmas, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah their cover cd is awesome. I havent seen them in about a year so it should be good times. Aaron the lead singer has been in and out of the hospital during the last tour because of "fluid in his abdomen" but apparently hes doing well again and ready for a few more concerts.
