Dana Colley and Jerome Dupree were quite comfortable jamming the old tunes with Jeremy Lyons. Dana made sure to give Mark his due credit after every morphine tune they played. the EWB material was good and it fit inside the morphine set. i would recommend any fan of morphine to check out this lineup. i will tell you one thing though. the magic bag SUCKS. i have been to about 500 shows spanning over a decade and a half, and i rate this venue with the bottom-of-the-barrel. notoriously bad sound. [luckily the band brought their own engineer on tour] totally over-staffed. and it seemed like everyone who works there had an ice pick shoved in their rectum.<br /><br />setlist:<br /><br />[i'm not sure of the names of the EWB tunes so i'm just going to put 'EWB song' instead of the title. if anyone has the info please contact me and i will update the setlist]<br /><br />have a lucky day<br />the other side<br />claire<br />scratch<br />pulled over the car<br />head with wings<br />let's take a trip together<br />EWB song<br />EWB song<br />EWB song<br />EWB song<br />EWB song<br />honey white<br />shelia<br />thursday<br />all wrong<br />yes<br />wishing well<br />radar<br />buenarickkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04469826991832320147noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7282806564093148403.post-91178969502011435942010-06-01T19:56:00.004-04:002010-06-01T21:17:02.906-04:00NOTABLE RELEASES:before i post a few more updates... just thought i would remind ya'll that the latest epic masterpiece from the melvins is out today on ipecac records.<br />THE BRIDE SCREAMED MURDER is their 19th-ish-or-so album. and the third with the current melvins / big business lineup. their US tour also kicks off tonight in san diego. you can catch them when they roll though hamtramck later this month at smalls. this show WILL sell out.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/MELVINS-BSM.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 500px; height: 500px;" src="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/MELVINS-BSM.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />also i found out that one of my favorite albums of all time is getting a nice treatment from the vinyl gods over at warner bros records.<br /><br />FAILURE - FANTASTIC PLANET<br /><br />i don't have much info on the release but it will be a 2 x LP [hopefully 180 gram] and will be released on june 8th. that's next tuesday slick!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/FANTASICPLANET.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 500px; height: 490px;" src="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/FANTASICPLANET.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>rickkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04469826991832320147noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7282806564093148403.post-88809061087218485272010-05-24T21:57:00.001-04:002010-05-24T22:07:47.484-04:00FEEDBACK : DEFTONES 05.21.10<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6607.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 640px; height: 360px;" src="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6607.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br />DEFTONES<br /><br />@ The Orbit Room<br /><br />May 21, 2010<br /><br />SOLD OUT.<br /><br />ok. here it goes... my 23rd deftones show is in the bag. [my third time seeing them @ the orbit room] and it is definitely in the top 10! around midnight the night before the show the official deftones twitter posted that they needed a local opener for the show. i immediately sent an email to my friends in bahamut letting them know about the chance... low and behold... less than 12 hours later they were confirmed as the opening act! hand picked from all the submissions by chino himself! it was surreal. they warmed up the crowd to a mixed reaction. there were a few haters [to the cunt with the finger problem... i'm sorry to hear about your syphilis.] but they opened up a few mosh-pits [which helped me get right up to the barrier in front of sergio] and some people were digging them for sure. all these people really wanted was deftones to melt their faces off. <br />and at about 9:05 they did just that. coming out fully on their a-game they tore into 'rocket skates' to set it off, and set it off they did! living up to their namesake that shit was LOUD and they had super high energy up there. the song selection was suburb. sergio is a perfect fit. abe was sick tight on the kit. chino was running around like it was 1998! the new material sounded fantastic. [could have something to do with their writing process for diamond eyes... hmm.] a full 2 hour set with some great rarities. [can't tell you the last time i heard 'when girls telephone boys' and 'birthmark'!] would have liked to have something different besides 'back to school' maybe 'teething' or 'can't even breathe'?? and 'headup' would have been an excellent choice instead of '7 words' as the closer. [seeing as chino is tired of playing that song] but don't get me wrong, they still crushed it.<br /> luckily i was surrounded by some true fans on the barrier. [brad marshall get at me dude!!] behind me, the crowd i'm sure was hella into it. there was a pretty steady flow of crowd surfers going over our heads [when will venues stop allowing that shit??] but the security did a great job keeping them off of our heads [for the most part] and keeping us hydrated. kudos to those guys. the crowd was constantly throwing things towards the stage and/or into the crowd. i saw: multiple hats, shirts, a yellow raincoat, a full purse, cell phones, and FULL beers. i personally want to find who was throwing those full beers and castrate that douchebag. especially when one landed on my head and SOAKED my camera right as birthmark was starting. i hadn't had a good barrier ride like that in a long time and it felt great. [didn't feel so good the next day and in fact i still have bruises] all for the love of the 'tones. getting back so late cost me waking up to buy tickets to deftones show #24 right when the switch was flipped. but you know i will be there regardless! one love for chi.<br /><br />setlist:<br /><br />rocket skates<br />diamond eyes<br />feiticeira<br />elite<br />knife prty<br />passenger<br />you've seen the butcher<br />CMND/CTRL<br />sextape<br />when girls telephone boys<br />minerva<br />birthmark<br />prince<br />beauty school<br />be quiet and drive<br />around the fur<br />lotion<br />my own summer<br />back to school<br />change<br /><br />root<br />7 words<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6592.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 640px; height: 360px;" src="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6592.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6616.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 640px; height: 360px;" src="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6616.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6620.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 640px; height: 360px;" src="http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f257/syitf/NOIZEBLEED/IMG_6620.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />KNIFE PRTY<br /><br /><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/m1B1yFsqA-g&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b&hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/m1B1yFsqA-g&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b&hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object><br /><br /><br />SEXTAPE<br /><br /><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fluNDck6_kc&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b&hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fluNDck6_kc&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b&hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>rickkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04469826991832320147noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7282806564093148403.post-30650374672704222642010-05-16T16:05:00.004-04:002010-05-16T16:48:03.263-04:00RIP - RONNIE JAMES DIO 1942-2010metal legend Ronnie James Dio has passed away this morning due to his six month long battle with stomach cancer. he was 67.
