Man, the Mars Volta cancelled their columbus show again on account of Cedric 'being too sick to take the stage'

fucking bullshit

oh man, that sucks! what happens, do you get your money back or do they do another show or what? I hope that doesn't happen in Toronto! I've got a ticket for their May 12th show..

I saw A Silver Mount Zion a few weeks back, and last year.. I don't really remember, there were too many good concerts to remember; Mono(2nd time) Red Sparrowes, Shining (although the band sucks, this was an awesome show), The Locust... eh.

Got tickets for Explosions in the Sky in two weeks or something. It's going to be nice.

So I just fished out like 140$ for two floor tickets to the Progressive Nation show at the Tabernacle in Atlanta on the 28th of May.

3, Dream Theater, Opeth and Between the Buried and Me are playing that night

Guess I'm going with my mom because all of my faggot friends are either not gonna be home or are broke and hate my music.

Since I know there are a few GWers in the South East that like these bands and might end up going hook me up if you're gonna be there and we can meet there up or something.

I am going to attend two concerts in May. The first of that being Progressive Nation, featuring Dream Theater, Opeth, Between the Buried and Me, and 3. I am really fucking pumped for this one as Between the Buried and Me is pretty much my favourite band right now. Though that is not to take away from how awesome the other three bands are. This is going to be an excellent concert!

Just saw Pennywise (awesome), Strung Out (decent, overrated, but loved the energy), and Authority Zero (freakin' awesome, also from my hometown). Punk rock.

Never been to a concert but if I could see any artist perform, it would have to be one of Susumu Hirasawa's interactive shows.

Hungry? Why wait?

i saw that dream theater show last night...it was probably the biggest musical disappointment of my life. three was just goofy, i don't know what they were doing but the singer shouldnt make noises like that, between the buried and me, i like their music, but seeing them live really made me realize how much of a NOVELTY act they are. i didn't really enjoy it. opeth ruled, they put on an incredible show

then i saw dream theater.

oh lord.

they have this big screen projector, which plays this footage they found packed in boxes from 1992. shitty, shitty cg with shit like, A BURNING HEART FLOATING OVER A BED. it looked like an awful adventure game that noone has heard of

they kept showing pictures of their album covers mixed with this awful cg which made it seem like an infomercial. james labrie looked like a huge faggot and he definitely sounded like one. it dawned on me completely that no matter how much i used to like this band, and no matter how well these dudes play they will never write good songs. mr. petruccis tone was honestly awful and mr rudess had this fucking TERRIBLE synth piano that sounded like a preset in the first version of logic. it was one of the most embarrassing things i've seen adult men do. my friend and i made a pact to never listen to dream theater again. it won't be hard.

Yeah, I guess I must have. I thought it was pretty awesome though. I didn't actually see the screen at the back since I was on the side. I pretty much think the exact opposite of you. I thought Three played an excellent show, BTBAM could have been better, but meh, Opeth was incredible, and Dream Theater was just flat-out excellent. I don't know what show you saw, but the one I saw was pretty good.

I think I passed out at one point from over-heating or something.

There's never been a lot to expect from DT with their pseudo progressive rock.... or was it progressive metal?
