Looking forward to SAXON tonight (Friday). I've only seen SAXON once and that was at Rocklahoma a couple years ago. Can't wait to see a proper hour and a half set... not the 40 minute festival set. Also looking forward to seeing them in a small general admission club (Jaxx in Springfield, VA.)

Just got back from the Reckless Love gig and they fucking nailed it again.

The split the set nicely between both albums, and those big Leppard style gang vocals really carried over well to the live performance.

 

Support band was musically not my cuppa, but the singer certainly was in her leather hot pants and cleavage revealing vest top.

Back to paradise

Animal attraction

They were absolutely brilliant - even better then when they toured the debut! Loved every second.

Off to see Fish at the weekend at a local club - huge nostalgia value - will the first time for years. Hoping for a few Marillion classics and a healthy dose of Vigil!!

Yeah, third time I have seen them now and this was probably the best so far, partly because Olli seems to really be getting to grips with the English language and being able to talk between songs.

The Eddie Murphy lines from Delirious made me laugh "How many of you are 18? See, you dont know how to fuck!"

This was utterly brilliant and my surprise gig of 2011. Went along expecting not much but got to witness probably the best acoustic gig ive ever seen. The part where he wandered into the crowd to sing 'Vigil' was absolutely surreal...having someone sing 2 feet in front of you was a bit unreal to be honest....powerful and emotional.

 

Whats more he played for 2 hours 15 minutes, without break.

 

Gig of 2011 without a shadow of a doubt.

A friend of mine (who joined this very forum, albeit very briefly) went to the same gig with his missus. He described it as "utterly fantastic ". Sounds like a great night.

I saw them with Donnie last December in a tiny club in London, and despite Donnie suffering with a throat infection, they were bloody fantastic.

Was some really cool chemistry between Donnie and Chip, which was cool and seems to show all differences have been put aside since their falling out.

Thats good to hear. I saw them in a really really itsy bitsy club on the Strength tour and they were on fire. At the time Monaco and Parent were in the band and it was really a site to see! As you said Chip and Donnie are great together, both toop shelf musicians and performers.

 

I remember when I met Chip after the show without DV, I asked him for a photo and an autograph and he was gracious and had a chuckle saying "Go get a couple bucks on Ebay for that."

    • Mirror to the Sky - Yes
    • Not really something that fully appeals to me, but I certainly don't see it as dogshit. If it came on the radio (not that I listen to radio) I certainly would not turn it off or skip it on a playlist.
    • Yeah, this whole thread offends me. 
    • I'm liking that first track as well
    • Interesting song choice as far as covering Journey, but they likely wanted to go with a lesser known track.   I'm not a fan of the vocal effects nor the guitar tone.  It's a skip for me, but not as bad as I was expecting after reading the prior comments.
    • The nice voice will change for future records, according to Graywolf's Facebook page:    
    • Mirror Mirror-Dokken
    • Ehh? Is this the same content retitled, or a completely different set of live material?... there's so much wrong with this announcement: This album was previously released as a very-limited CD/DVD.  It sold out instantly.  So we went back in and did a Dolby Atmos remaster/remix of the album, and all new artwork. But CD and DVD don't support Dolby Atmos. That's not a thing. Blu-Ray yes, but not CD or DVD. ALSO - Not only will this be available on streaming platforms but we will soon be announcing the release of Vinyl, CD/DVD, and Cassette.  Yes, you read that right.  Cassette.  Oh - let's talk about the video - the BluRay video has been upgraded to 4K for this release "Upgraded to 4k"... whut? Unless it was reshot using 4K cameras (or was originally shot in 4K but simply authored to blu-ray in SDR) and is completely reauthored to support HDR, a 4K UHD release may not actually be an improvement. Boomers saying boomer things...
    • From the Michael Sweet FB page: You asked for it!  And we listened!  To Hell with the Amps, our acoustic album, is being released worldwide on May 10 to streaming services everywhere.   This album was previously released as a very-limited CD/DVD.  It sold out instantly.  So we went back in and did a Dolby Atmos remaster/remix of the album, and all new artwork.   ALSO - Not only will this be available on streaming platforms but we will soon be announcing the release of Vinyl, CD/DVD, and Cassette.  Yes, you read that right.  Cassette.  Oh - let's talk about the video - the BluRay video has been upgraded to 4K for this release.   There are so many exciting things to come with this release.  Stay tuned here and at Stryper.com We are looking forward to taking this acoustic album on the road starting May 30.
    • May I introduce a Swiss singer who is obviously not yet represented here (perhaps for reasons): Seraina Telli. I don't understand how you can make an official music video in portrait format, but I like the sound. 2015 - 2019: Leader of the metal band Burning Witches with successful European tours. She was a founding member and also co-songwriter on the first two studio albums. Since 2019, she has been touring solo and with her own band Dead Venus. 2022: Debut solo album 'Simple Talk' reaches number 2 in the Swiss charts. She toured Europe with CoreLeoni (fall 2022) and The New Roses (spring 2023). If you're interested, you can check out her YouTube-Channel.
