RE: death grips @ mad decent

how was this show? i saw some videos of it on youtube. crowd looked really lame! i've concluded that death grips can only secret warehouse shows only-- it just makes more sense that way. the energy and mysteriousness doesn't really translate well to big, outdoor stages

from the clams casino show in SF:

saw sade last night. pshhhhhhh. killed. it. cereal. hoard. definitely one of the best concerts of my life. even the mellow loints like "your love is king" & "king of sorrow" were face melting. if you get a chance they are a definite recommendation. collared shirt. church shoes. bring a date. CLASSY.

Finally in an area that gets decent shows every so often. I saw El Ten Eleven a few weeks ago. They were good, didn't blow me away, but good.

October 13: Black Angels + Dead Meadow

October 20: Battles

November 4: M83

Kyuss Lives and The Sword are playing in late September but I haven't committed yet. Tickets are kinda overpriced IMO (~$40), and I've heard some negative things about the reformation of Kyuss without Josh Homme.

says 21 + encore. and it sounds pretty right. i missed the encore cuz i had to get my camera outta coat check. gf1 w 50mm nikon. woulda got some ill ass flicks from that show. but they decided that not allowing it was somehow justifiable despite erry mfer recording video for they youtube channels. *asshurt about that... still an awesome show tho.

I saw Peter Hook do 'Unknown Pleasures' last year here in LA (Music Box). I recommend checking it out if you are a big Joy Division fan however it took me a bit to get used to Peter's vocals.

Was it amazing? Not really. I enjoyed it and his bass skills were on point. But considering that he played Unknown Pleasures and Closer in LA this week.... I didn't feel a bit of regret missing it.
