Show Journal 2006-04-23
Fantastic show tonight. We were ok but the other bands were the reason this show was great. I missed Shook Ones but everyone said they totally killed it. I have the album in my possession and am anxious to hear it due to all of the good responses from everyone. The Loved Ones was the band I was most excited about and they sounded great. They were every bit as impressive as their CD live. I wish they were a little bit taller (and wish they were ballers) so I could see them play so they have earned the title of “best band I have heard but not seen” in a long time. Paint It Black was the main draw and they too were every bit as incredible as their albums and even surpassed them in intensity which is a feat in itself. “Memorial Day” is now officially the best live song ever (although ‘True Believers’ by Bouncing Souls would be a damn close second). It’s not often you get to play with two of your favorite bands so I’m humbled, thrilled and feeling good about this evening as a whole. Thank you Chris.
