Gigs you've been to lately

[Danny Electric]

So who's been to any gigs over the last couple of weeks or the last month.

A couple of weeks ago I saw Alexisonfire with Rise Against. Alexisonfire like always were awesome, every song they played was brilliant. Highlight for me was 'Pulmonary Archery' which sounded amazing. Dallas Green has the most amazing voice, I would love to watch his accoustic set.
I don't know much Rise Against voice but fair play to the singer for being awesome after losing his voice the week before. Hearing 'Like The Angel' live for me was awesome, it's one of my favourite songs ever. The other stuff sounded great too but after Alexisonfire put on such a great set, it was hard for them to live up to it.

Then I went to the Victory Records tour which consisted of Aiden, The Black Maria and Silverstein.
Aiden have been one of my fav bands of the year and this was the first time they've played the UK so it was great to see them. Their new stuff sounded great and the songs I knew that they played were pretty cool too. Only bad thing was that the lead singer kinda can't hold a note live but he has a good stage presence that makes up for it. He wants to be Davey Havok though so much which is funny. I met some of the guys and they were pretty awesome.
Next were The Black Maria who kinda bored me apart from a couple of tracks towards the end of the set. Nothing really captured me and they didn't really have any presence on the stage so I went to the cash machine for a bit.
Last was Silverstein, I was really impressed. I had been told by a fried that they weren't too good live but I thought they were really good. They sounded so much better than they do on CD, which is amazing because I love 'When Broken Is Easily Fixed', alot more force behind the music on stage.
So overall a good night for 6 pound.

Last night was Hopesfall and Tsunami Bomb supported by My Awesome Complmatiion.

My Awesome Comp. were really good again, one of the best British bands out there. They seem to give it all live and the crowd got into them.
Hopesfall were up next and the sound was sweet. They started off with a few older tracks and I was really looking foward to the rest of the set. However the newer stuff kinda bored me, sounded really stereotypical and seemed to lack any passion. However when they played more older stuff I thought they were awesome apart from the lead singer who just seemed to stand there and stare into the background like he was going to kill someone whilst he had nothing to do. The lead guitar was sweet, really loved the sound. It's a shame that I couldn't see them before this new album was released.

Tsunami Bomb were awesome, I spent most the set staring at Agetnt M who is gorgeous. They played stuff off both their albums, once again I don't know the new album weel enough but the older stuff was great. The sound was pretty crappy for their set though, don't know what the sound gusy were doing but you could barely make out the guitar. 'Take The Reins' and ''20 Going On' were awesome live and the newer stuff is pretty cool too.

Next up is Armor For Sleep on Sunday
