GDT: first three game winning streak of the season gdt vs stars

[HisIceness]

I think this franchise has a grand total of 1 win in the Lone Star State. Time to make it 2 wins tonight.

Rush is/was amazing live, but to get that you probably have to be really familiar with their stuff, because part of what makes them so good is that they sound EXACTLY like their recorded albums, which for such complex music is incredibly hard to pull off.

As for the Stars, I feel like we probably match up pretty well and surely we have at least one dude who can fite better than this:

ha ha...no. I did see Rush a few years ago when they were in town. I was never a big Rush fan, but some friends wanted to go, but I hated the concert. It was almost 3 hours of a bunch of songs I didn't know sprinkled in with the 4-5 songs I did know. Watching the drummer was cool though, but overall, I just left with a headache.

I bought tickets to Charlie Daniels band. I'm not a big fan of Charlie Daniels, but like when I bought BB King tickets a few years ago, figured this might be my last chance to see him and I like him enough to see him once. What I didn't know is that this was a 10 hour concert starting at noon with many "old time" bands. A couple of lesser known bands, then Poco, Pure Prairie League, The Outlaws, Marshall Tucker Band, and finally Charlie Daniels Band. Other than Charlie Daniels, each band looks to get about 1 hour so at least it should at least be mostly songs I know since I was never big fans of any of these bands to know more than a few from each.

I expect this to be like when I saw John Fogerty in Raleigh a couple years ago. I was probably the youngest person there.

Saw him in Charlotte in 2005. I would have been 17 and I went with a friend and her father who was a big fan. We were clearly the youngest ones there from what I saw. Had at least 4 people ask us if we even knew who John Fogerty was

Good GDT. Short and sweet.

Wait... who?

Bd58 is back?

DISCUSS!

i'm glad bd58 likes my gdts now becuase he used to really hate my gdts

 

[HisIceness]

Good to know we have our full-time Duke fan around here again. I'm sure our friends S1C2 and GoCanes88, and others I'm forgetting right now will be happy to know this

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

I can't wait for BD58's post when Cam Ward starts 3 straight games, because we all know that will happen at some point in the season.

 

[Novacane]

Darling starting it seems

If I knew more songs, I probably would have enjoyed it, although Geddy Lee can't quite hit the notes like he used to.

Wife and I saw Bob Seger a couple years ago, and again, while not a huge Seger fan, the concert was great. Every song he played was one that I knew so it was hit after hit after hit. He was pretty good engaging the crowd as well (unlike when I saw Clapton). Can't remember all of the concerts I've seen in recent years, but ones that stick out that I liked:

Roger Waters and the Wall was spectacular.
I've seen the Black Keys twice and loved them both times - (the Flaming Lips warmed up for them 1 time and Vincent did the other time).
Seger was great.
B52s were fun - Kate Pierson still has it.
BB King was cool and a great experience.
Lumineers - solid show.
Paul Simon (in his mid 70s and played for 2.5 hours with no breaks in between songs. Plus, he still has it)
John Fogerty - was great because he played all the CCR stuff.
Diana Krall - My wife wanted to see this and it was surprisingly good.
Alabama Shakes - saw them twice, once at Cats cradle and they were spectacular.
Jason Isbell - seen him a couple of times.
Sturgill Simpson - more "country" than I prefer, but he kills it live and is much more rock and roll live.

I'm sure I'm missing a few and I'm not including all the small venue, lesser known bands. I pretty much like seeing any live music though. Ones that stick out that I didn't like as much.
Rush - as I stated above
Clapton - Music was good, but the show as just "meh".

Yeah, Rush is an acquired taste. I'm a drummer so that plays into my fandom. Honestly, I didn't love them at first but was turned onto them by a friend. It wasn't long before I had all their songs and listened to them on a regular basis.

Their technical mastery and perfectionism is pretty awe inspiring, but if I hadn't heard much of their stuff before I'd probably feel the same way about the show. I think they've hung up the towel unfortunately, but I'd splurge to see them if they ever tour again.

I'd love to see Seger. I have a wide scope of music I'm into, and one of the best shows I've seen is Def Leppard believe it or not. Red Hot Chili Peppers was up there too. Great show.
