Not only this — for a society obsessed with “equality” — prohibiting cash tender, which is the primary currency for the unbanked and underbanked, is such a direct discriminatory action it’s almost incomprehensible. I find hypocrisy like that too much
Good stuff, but how come your posts say 'Brought to you by MasterCard at the bottom."? 😜
Although I hate stalkers, I did chuckle at Spanky's when the name was "SPANKY DA DOUCHE". Must be hard coming up with new screen names.
The person making up all of these names is really, strange and too consumed with Spanky and AreYouNuts. Let it go already, and move on.
Fantastic. Had never seen them, somehow, despite wanting to (even had a ticket once, but something came up); we did see Eddie Vedder in Montreal in 2008 and he was great. Played 2.5 hours including a bunch of their big, early hits and a nice sampling of later albums and the new album, which is pretty good, and a couple of cool covers/snippets from other songs. Band is a seriously professional rock and roll band: very tight, but they also know how to improvise a bit and have fun on stage and Eddie is great with just enough banter to be engaging, but not so much as to be annoying. Crowd was juiced too, with lots of fun singalongs to the big songs.
Saw them once. Never again. Vedder botched about everything incessantly and pretty much ruined the mood of the crowd. Shame.
As bad as Perry Farrell in Boston earlier this week? Throws a punch at Dave Navarro.
And I’m free to criticize it. So we’re back to where we started haha
I've seen them quite a few times over the years, but not recently.
IDK. I'm OK with cashless. Been using Google pay more and more with my phone. A lot easier than fumbling with money or cards, don't have to carry a wallet for anything else the driver's license. Don't understand the adherence to cash, but to each their own.
Friends of ours saw the Jane's Addiction/Love & Rockets show in AC last week and said Perry Farrell was horrible (voice shot, looked wasted). Think he needs help again. Bad week for 90s rock icons with this and Dave Grohl's fall from grace. Leave it to Oasis to be the representatives of brotherhood and love, lol.
That's too bad - even the best artists have off nights. There are probably about a dozen artists I've seen 6+ times and almost all of them had at least one off night among those (although none I would say were terrible); the one exception is probably U2, who were always 100% on (those were all shows between 1981 and 1987, though, so maybe they've been bad at times after that).
Ehh, on Dave Grohl. He's a rock and roll star. Never really loved the Foos, but they are tolerable enough. I don't bet on anything, but I'm willing to bet my life savings the Oasis reunion ends in a breakup half way through the tour.
Apparently it's a thing. Vedder didn't have wine on stage with him in 2008, but definitely had a bottle of wine on stage the other night. I guess that can go awry at times, although I'm with you on the sloppy rock and roll aspect.
Take the under, lol.
Nope, but I’ll post my Venmo incase anyone wants to send me some extra cash 😂
