First of all, I would never go to a Fugazi concert!
A friend of ours went back in the nineties.
He said there was blood flying in the audience because of the violent moshing.
I found a youtube clip, but the crowd doesn't look that crazy.
I'm still not taking any chances though! LOL
Anyway, Mr P and I went to a Jane's Addiction concert in the nineties;
The opening band was Lush, and I really like them.
So I was having a good time.
Then, when Jane's Addiction came out on stage and the band started to play, the whole place broke into a wild frenzy!
The show was at an arena and we were on the floor, towards the front.
Mr. P is quite tall, 6'1". I was standing directly in front of him.
He picked me up, and backed up through the crowd until we found a calme

Green "GREED" Concerts: Hot Music & Hot Air The music industry is jumping on the green bandwagon, offering environmentally friendly packaging and even low-carbon tours. Another trend is buying carbon offsets. But its effect is, well, up in the air. Rocker Jack Johnson is offering concert-goers the opportunity to buy carbon offsets to negate the environmental impact of their travels to his shows this summer. The arenas he plays will have to meet certain standards, including the use of energy-efficient lightbulbs. "When you look at the carbon footprint of a tour, at least 75% of it is from fans traveling to and from the shows," says Brian Allenby of Reverb, The Dave Matthews Band, Mr. Allenby says, bought offsets to counteract the 1,000 tons of carbon-dioxide emissions
The "Unforgettable" concerts in July that will see the Bachchan clan of Bollywood perform live across Europe and United States has new glamour quotient.Saif Ali Khan, Shahid Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit (Nene) will join Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan, son Abhishek and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai at different venues across Britain and the US, a source close to the family said. Riteish Deshmukh, Bipasha Basu and Akshay Kumar are also part of the entourage."Saif and Shahid showed absolutely no hesitation in joining the Bachchans on their tour. The price being offered was fine and the dates for venues where they’ll perform also worked out to their convenience. As for Madhuri, it would be the easiest thing in the world to join the Bachchans for the concerts in the US because
Saturday was the day we finally saw The Wiggles in concert, and from the way my daughter had been acting all last week, you’d think she’s been waiting to go since the day she was born.She was talking about it to everybody she came in contact with –- the sitter “I go to see THE WIGGLES!” The neighbors “Daddy taking me to see THE WIGGLES!!” The weird lady at Trader Joes that always smells (and maybe licks) the fruit “I going to see THE WIGGLES!” To the dog “woof, woof, woof…THE WIGGLES!!!”When they finally came on stage she screamed like a Japanese schoolgirl meeting Hello Kitty for the first time and absolutely REFUSED for the wife or I to pick her up. I guess she didn’t want to be seen with us, you know, because it’s embarrassing to be seen with your parents at
Rihanna's new tour may be titled A Girls' Night Out, but perhaps it should be renamed to The Do-Gooders' Night Out.The 20-year-old Grammy-winning songstress has revealed how she plans to use her star power with a few US dates to benefit her charity, The Believe Foundation."When I was young and I would watch television and I would see all the children suffering, I always said when I grow up, I want to help," she told People.com after performing at Chicago's Vision nightclub."Not long after, I was in the position where I could help. I started to visit all these children's hospitals and I have a soft spot for kids. I just want to help and make sure they are happy. They can come to a Rihanna concert or have toys or gifts at Christmas."The charity helps children who are less fortunate - by prov

Nokia claims that 75% of mobile music downloads are actually sideloaded via the PC. So while competitors launch "traditional" online stores (PlayNow for SonyEricsson), the Finns teamed up with Universal Music Group to offer "Come With Music" packages : a sexy name for a classic hardware + 12 month subscription package... except the service is unlimited music downloads, and the mobile operator is out of the loop.Orange Music Store eventually tries to catch up with the Vodafone platform, but at the same moment SFR Live Concerts puts the bar one notch higher. Vivendi must have noticed that the business models of music majors are changing, that album / track sales go down while live events and merchandizing go up. Majors are trimming off their catalogues, renegociating contracts, competing wit

We had three concert last week with our wind band. On Friday we played a exclusive repertoire for our great sponsor Hidria. It was a little bit different concert than usual. You can check two interesting youtube clips from there! of young musicians (including me) received some funds for further music studying. Thanks to Hidria again!On Saturday and Sunday we played at Christmas concert in Sp. Idrija and in Idrija, like every year. Like I described in previous post I played solo, Concertino for tuba and band (James Curnow). On Saturday I played it good (not perfect). I was a little bit nervous and my mouth were dry. On Sunday I played it better and I was really satisfied (happy) with my performance. I am waiting for videos, which I will put on youtube!
I feel like I go to less and less concerts every year. And still, I go to way more than I deserve to probably. I was browsing around the music blogosphere today and saw some damned impressive best concerts listings and debated whether or not I would even throw my hat into that ring this year. But, I gotta do it anyway, despite some big challenges when it comes to live music in 2007. Challenge #1 is living in Cincinnati. It is a shame, but there are not alot of national acts that make their way here compared to many other cities around the country, or even Columbus and Louisville for that matter. And in the past, I have made a few trips to both Cbus and Louisville, but this year, I just didn’t. I can put that on the fact that I am still a family man at heart, with a wife and three boys, bouncing to Newport is tough enough at times.
On the positive side though this year, I did get to experience Bonnaroo for the first time, and am very happy I got to see acts like The Police,
Amy Winehouse has canceled the rest of her concerts for 2007. As well as cancelling the concert dates, Amy, won’t be making any promotional appearances at all for the rest of the year. Amy has blamed her cancelations on the fact she can’t function properly with her husband being behind bars.
Amy posted on her website “I can’t give it my all onstage without my Blake. I’m so sorry but I don’t want to do the shows half-heartedly. I love singing. My husband is everything to me and without him it’s just not the same,”
Amy Winehouse’s husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, 25, was recently arrested for attempting to manipulate a witness in the trial for his 2006 assault charges.
Amy Winehouse needs more than the rest of this year to fix herself up, but if she’s cancelling concerts and promo trips at the age of 24 she can’t be serious about her career. We’ll see if she turns up next year I suppose.

I am a parent frugal by nature (inherited the genes); by upbringing (born and raised with a scarcity in everything, food, books, no toys to speak of) and by reality (two little kids, a meager income, and burning desire for the kids to become something).

Last week I played with Simfonika from Vrhnika again. On Saturday we played in Skofja Loka, on Sunday in Cerkno. We played many famous arias. Our special guest was Janez Lotric. He is world famous tenor opera singer. It was truly amazing! In both events there was about 2500 listeners. You can check the TV comment here (4MB) Second guest was Vera Mlejnik. She sang very well too. The conductor of Simfonika in Marko Fabiani, also the Associate Concertmaster of Symphony Orchestra RTV Slovenia. I think he is very good conductor and musician! Damijan Bogataj was the producer and organizer of these 2 successful concerts. I've played with Simfonika about 6 times before and I hope I will play there again.

By Michael Russell In this article we're going to indulge in a debate on concert performances versus studio recordings.It should be pointed out that there are no personal views in this article. The following is a composition of arguments made by critics and fans of music since the early days of both live and studio recordings.Let's first cut to the question we ultimately want to get answered in this article. Which is better, seeing a group live or listening to one of their studio albums?Well, to answer that it first needs to be pointed out that the question of better in itself may not even be the definitive answer. A live performance may be better than a studio album, worse than one or simply a different experience depending on what you are trying to get out of it.If you're a purest who wants to hear your favorite group's songs done exactly as they were done on record then more likely than not you will probably be disappointed. Why? Well, there are several things that factor into t
One of the greatest perks about living or visiting the Algarve, is how spoiled you get by great and constant entertainment.

Grant Park Symphony bassist John Floeter recently wrote a post about the difference in audience and orchestra enjoyment of pops concerts. Reflecting on a summer concert with The Decemberists, he writes:I've played lots of rock concerts in the backup orchestra, and usually it's a very uncomfortable experience with repetitive parts, deafening sound despite earplugs, and probably worst of all; the feeling that what I play doesn't matter. But I try to suck it up and go on. I'm a hired gun. Do the job you're getting paid to do, or just get out of this business.I can't exactly cherry-pick the kinds of concerts I'll play. What I play with GPO is part of the whole package of their season, and my profession for that matter. I try to steer my schedule to the kinds of concerts that I enjoy playing, and on some level, I do enjoy playing "pops" concerts like this one. But when someone asks me a direct question out of the blue about whether I'm looking forward to the concert with the famous

I just read an interesting post on Joshua Nemith's Cincinnati Pianist Blog about the benefits of scheduling shorter and more informal concerts, like concerts at a patron's home or other such intimate venue. Josh mentions having participated in these sort of events for different organizations in the past, and he highlights some of the benefits of these events:1) Audience/donor/musician connections. Today it’s all about breaking down that wall between the stage and the first row. Events like this let musicians get to know their audience members, and audience members get to know the musicians they see week after week on stage. It is also important for musicians (or any other artists) to learn about the people in their communities who can financially support artistic institutions. Those connections can lead to new endeavors or programs that enrich the arts scene of any town or city.2) Special musical opportunities for working musicians. There are not too many people in our field who w

This is a band that I have never heard before, but apparently White Lion were a hard rock band that were around in the 1980s and early 1990s. They were formed in New York City in 1983 by Danish-born vocalist Mike Tramp and guitarist Vito Bratta. I am not sure what the current line-up is for this concert. (more…)
After Live 8, there will be Live Earth.
Live Earth is a 24-hour, 7-continent series of 9 concerts taking place on 7/7/07 that will bring together more than 100 music artists and 2 billion people to...

A recent concert by local bands in Denver, Bad Weather California, Born in the Flood and Meese played a very unusual gig.The abandoned warehouse they performed in is the studios of Internet video outfit ManiaTV, which streamed the performance live via its Internet TV network. The live video stream was only the second dimension to this concert. What made this Denver concert different is that it was also simulcasted in the popular virtual world Second Life. This concert was an attempt to merge the three platforms--live, Internet and virtual world--into one common experience. According to Tantra World Wide, who conceived of and produced the Denver event, the goal was to be totally seamless through the three platforms. Multiple camera angles were used for the Internet stream on ManiaTV and a special Second Life "cam" was used to splice the shots of the different bands' avatars performing in the virtual world. At the same time, for viewers jamming to the concert in one of the 25 venues wit
Mallory and I went to Kayley’s choir concert, along with my parents, on Thursday night. It sure brought back memories for me and my folks - they sat through many a performance when I was in school, since I was in choir from 6th through 10th grades! I know most of you won’t be interested in this - but maybe some of you who know Kayley will - here is her group. They’re first year singers, and I thought they did a pretty decent job! Here’s one of the songs they did. I was impressed that they learned a whole song in Spanish! Of course, they probably have no idea what they’re singing about, but still:
Now here’s what surprised me. This is the 8th grade choir, and it’s a group you actually have to audition for. That alone, along with the fact that you expect the higher grade to sound better than the lower grades, simply because they’re more mature and have more singing experience, made me think they were really going to wow us. They didn&rsqu
Prince is large! Within minutes of tickets going on sale for the first seven of Prince 21 scheduled shows, they were all sold out. Now that's what I call living large. Your music is so good that tickets to your concert are out sold within minutes. Very few entertainers can do that.

At the moment there is not an event planned here in Puerto Rico, but I thought this is such an important issue that it deserves a spot on this site. On 7/7/07 the Live Earth Concerts to Combat Global Warming will take place. The 24 hour, 7 continent event will raise awareness to global warming and will hopefully help to make a difference to our planet.

The U.K. renditions of the Live Earth concerts will include sexy, sexy musical acts like the Beastie Boys, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Duran Duran and Razor Light for the July 7 gig. But wait, there’s more—Black Eyed Peas, Bloc Party, James Blunt, Corinne Bailey Rae, Damien Rice, David Gray, Keane and Paolo Nutini will also join the party.
Snoop Dogg last night cancelled his five UK gigs with P Diddy after being banned from entering Britain for life.It was hoped this month’s shows would go ahead with P Diddy alone but organisers said it was too late rework the show. More than 65,000 tickets had been sold.A tour spokesman said: “Snoop and P Diddy are incredibly disappointed by the news. The situation was ultimately out of their control.”
I've been doing some reading in the last year or so on global warming. I know it's a hot topic right now and is being embraced by the Hollywood crowd as the current fad-to-be-supportive-of. Whether or not I think global warming even exists in the form that is being touted as an epidemic of sorts, boy are we gong to get some awesome concerts out of the deal!

An article in the Finacial Times announces that a series of climate change concerts "bigger than Live Aid" is being planned for July."Live Aid was about asking people to stump up money, this is about effecting systemic change.""The aim is not just to drive awareness but to get people to take action."
